Towing using a towline
This section refers to one vehicle being towed behind another using a towline.
Before towing another vehicle, check applica- ble speed limit regulations.
Preparations and towing
CAUTION
For some transmission variants, it is not possible to shift from P position if theengine is switched off. Contact an author-ized Volvo workshop for assistance towingor call a professional towing service.
CAUTION
Note that the vehicle must always be towed with the wheels rolling forward.
Do not tow a vehicle with automatictransmission at a speed greater than80 km/h (50 mph) or for a distancegreater than 80 km (50 miles).
WARNING
Ignition mode
II must be active – all
airbags are deactivated in ignition mode I.
Always have the remote key in thevehicle when it is towed.
WARNING
The brake and steering servos do not work when the engine is off – it takesabout 5 times more pressure on the brakepedal and steering requires much moreeffort than normal.
1. Turn on the hazard warning flashers.
2. Attach the towline to the towing eyelet.
3. Put the vehicle in ignition mode II – with-
out pressing the brake pedal, turn the start knob clockwise and hold it there for about4 seconds. Release the knob, which willautomatically return to its original position.
4. Move the gear selector to neutral (N) and release the parking brake. If the battery charge level is too low, it may not be possible to release the parkingbrake. Connect an auxiliary battery to thevehicle if the battery is discharged.
> The towing vehicle can now start driv-ing. 5. Keep the towline taut when the towing
vehicle slows down by applying light pres- sure to the brake pedal. This will helpavoid jarring movements.
6. Be prepared to apply the brakes to stop the vehicle.
Jump startingDo not tow the vehicle to start the engine. Usean auxiliary battery if the start battery's chargelevel is so low that the engine cannot bestarted.
CAUTION
Attempting to tow with the engine running could result in damage to the three-waycatalytic converter.

Programming HomeLink ®
*22
Follow these instructions to program HomeLink ®
, reset all programming, or pro-
gram individual buttons.
NOTE
In some vehicles, the ignition must be on or in the "accessory position" before HomeLink ®
can be programmed or used. It
can be a good idea to put new batteries in the remote control being replaced by HomeLink ®
for faster programming and
better radio signal transmission. TheHomeLink ®
buttons should be reset before
programming.
WARNING
While HomeLink ®
is being programmed,
the garage door or gate being programmed may be activated. Make sure that no one isnear the door or gate during programming.When programming a garage door opener,it is advised to park outside of the garage. 1. Point the remote control at the
HomeLink ®
button to be programmed and
hold it about 2-8 cm (1-3 inches) from the button. Do not obstruct the HomeLink ®
indicator light. Note: Some remote controls are more
effective at programming HomeLink ®
from
a distance of about 15-20 cm (6-12 inches). Keep this in mind if you experi-ence any programming difficulties.
2. Press and hold both the remote control button and the HomeLink ®
button to be
programmed. 3. Do not release the buttons until the indica-
tor light has stopped flashing slowly(about once a second) and either flashesquickly (about 10 times a second) orglows steadily. >If the indicator light glows steadily: Indication that programming is com-plete. Press the programmed buttontwice to activate. If the indicator light flashes quickly: The device being programmed with HomeLink ®
may have a security func-
tion that requires an extra step. Try pressing the programmed button twiceto see whether the programmingworks. Otherwise, continue with thefollowing steps.

HD Radio™ sub-channels
In many cases, a main HD Radio station (FM wavebands only) will also have sub-channelsoffering additional types of programming ormusic.
Sub-channels
Example of an HD Radio station with sub-channels
If any sub-channels are available, they will lis- ted below the main channel on the screen. Inthis example, WILD-FM HD2 is a sub-chan-nel.
Selecting sub-channels
To listen to a station's sub-channel(s), tap the station on the screen or press the forward/back arrow keys on the right-side steering wheel keypad or below the screen. Sub-channels can also be saved as radio favorites. If you tap a sub-channel favorite, it may takeup to
6 seconds before the channel becomes
audible. If you tap a station while you are out of digital range of the transmitter,
No
reception will be displayed.

Limitations
Main channel vs. sub-channels (FM only)
: The main channel is the only chan-
nel that can receive in hybrid mode (bothdigital and analog). If a frequency has sub-channels, they are broadcast in digitalmode only. The main FM channel will bedisplayed as, for example, "WRIF-FMHD1". The sub-FM channels will be dis-played as"WRIF-FM HD2", "WRIF-FMHD3", etc.
Reception coverage area
: Due to current
IBOC transmitter power limitations, thereception coverage area in digital mode issomewhat more limited than the station'sanalog coverage area. Be aware that, likeall radio transmission technology, terrain,time of day, vegetation and buildings canhave a positive or negative effect on radioreception.
Analog to digital/digital to analogblending
: Analog to digital blending will
occur as the signal strength reaches a pre-set threshold in the receiver. This will benoticeable in fringe areas (areas with weakreception) and is normal.
AUDIO, MEDIA AND INTERNET
* Option/accessory.505
No or poor Internet connection Factors affecting the Internet connection.
The amount of data transmitted depends on the services or apps currently in use in thevehicle. Streaming music, for example,involves the transmission of a large amount ofdata, and this requires a good connection anda strong signal.
Phone to vehicleInternet connection speed may vary depend-ing on the location of the cellular phone in thevehicle. Move the phone closer to the centerdisplay to increase signal strength. Make surethat nothing is between the phone and centerdisplay that could be blocking the signal.
Phone to network operatorThe speed of the mobile network variesdepending on the coverage in the vehicle'scurrent location. Coverage may be poorer ine.g. tunnels, mountainous areas, deep valleysor indoors. Connection speed is also depend-ent on the subscription you have with yourservice provider.
NOTE
If you experience any problems with data traffic, contact your network service pro-vider.
Restarting the phoneIf you experience any Internet connection problems, it may help to restart your phone.

WARNING
Apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in the Park (
P) position.
Block the wheels standing on theground, use rigid wooden blocks orlarge stones.
Check that the jack is not damaged,the threads are properly lubricated andit is free from dirt.
Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-slippery surface and that it is uprightand not leaning.
The jack must correctly engage in thejack attachment.
No objects should be placed betweenthe base of the jack and the ground, orbetween the jack and the attachmentbar on the vehicle.
Never let anyone remain in the vehiclewhen it is raised on a jack.
If a tire must be changed near passingtraffic, make sure all passengers moveto a safe location.
Use a jack intended for the vehiclewhen changing a tire. For any otherjob, use stands to support the vehicle.
Never crawl under or allow any part of your body to be extended under a vehi-cle supported by a jack.
WARNING
If the vehicle is lifted on a garage jack, the jack must be placed under one of the fourlifting points. Make sure that the vehicle iscorrectly positioned on the jack and that itcannot slide off. Make sure the jack platehas a rubber pad to help keep the vehiclestable and prevent damage. Always useaxle stands or similar.
When not in use, the jack * should be kept in
its storage compartment under the cargo compartment floor. Read through all instructions before starting. Before raising the vehicle using a jack or lift,take out all the tools you will need.
1. Turn on the vehicle's hazard warning flashers if e.g. a wheel change must be performed in an area with traffic.
2. Apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in P, or first gear if the vehicle has
a manual transmission. If the vehicle is equipped with
Leveling
Control* , this feature must be turned off
before the vehicle is lifted onto a tow truck. 3. Place chocks in front of and behind the
wheels that are still on the ground. Forexample, use heavy wooden blocks orlarge stones.
