Airbags (p. 55)
Occupant weight sensor (p. 59)
Occupant weight sensor
The Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) is designed to meet the regulatory require-ments of Federal Motor Vehicle SafetyStandard (FMVSS) 208 and is designed todisable (will not inflate) the passenger's sidefront airbag under certain conditions.
Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) indicator light
Disabling the passenger's side front airbag
Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and children) shorter than 140 cm(4 feet 7 inches) be seated in the back seat ofany vehicle with a front passenger side airbagand be properly restrained for their size andweight. The OWS works with sensors that are part of the front passenger's seat and seat belt. Thesensors are designed to detect the presence of a properly seated occupant and determine ifthe passenger's side front airbag should beenabled (may inflate) or disabled (will notinflate). The OWS will disable (will not inflate) the pas- senger's side front airbag when:
the front passenger's seat is unoccupied,or has small/medium objects in the frontseat,
the system determines that an infant ispresent in a rear-facing infant seat that isinstalled according to the manufacturer'sinstructions,
the system determines that a small child ispresent in a forward-facing child restraintthat is installed according to the manufac-turer's instructions,
the system determines that a small child ispresent in a booster seat,
a child or a small person occupies thefront passenger's seat.
The OWS uses a PASSENGER AIRBAG OFFindicator lamp which will illuminate and stayon to remind you that the passenger's sidefront airbag is disabled. The PASSENGERAIRBAG OFF indicator lamp is located in theoverhead console, near the base of the rear-view mirror.

NOTE
When the ignition is switched on, the OWS indicator light will illuminate for sev-eral seconds while the system performs aself-diagnostic test.
However, if a fault is detected in the system:
The OWS indicator light will stay on
The SRS warning light will come on and stay on and a text message will be dis-played.
WARNING
If a fault in the system is detected and indi- cated as described, be aware that the pas-senger's side front airbag will not deploy inthe event of a collision. In this case, theSRS system and Occupant Weight Sensorshould be inspected by a trained and quali-fied Volvo service technician as soon aspossible.
WARNING
Never try to open, remove or repair any components in the OWS system. Thiscould cause the system to malfunction.Maintenance or repairs should only becarried out by an a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.
The front passenger's seat should notbe modified in any way. This couldreduce pressure on the seat cushion,which might interfere with the OWSsystem's function.

Volvo recommends that children always be properly restrained in appropriate child restraints in the rear seats.Do not assume that the passenger's side front airbag is dis-abled unless the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator lampis lit. Make sure the child restraint is properly installed. Ifthere is any doubt as to the status of the passenger's sidefront airbag, move the child restraint to the rear seat.

Activating or deactivating Connected Safety
For Connected Safety to be able to share information about road conditions with otherdrivers, the function must be activated. If youdo not wish to share information, the functioncan be deactivated.
Activate or deactivate the function using this button inthe center display's Functionview.
Illuminated button indicator light – the function is activated.
Extinguished button indicator light – thefunction is deactivated.
At activation, the driver must accept the spe-cial terms and conditions shown in the display before an Internet connection 12
can be estab-
lished. The driver must, for example, accept that data is sent from the vehicle using thedriver's cellular phone. Even when your vehicle is not connected to the Internet, you will still be notified if the sys-tem in your own vehicle detects slippery roadconditions. For Connected Safety to functionat full capacity, your vehicle needs to be con-nected to the Internet.

Connected Safety limitations
Information on vehicles with activated hazard warning flashers or which have detected slip-pery road conditions is not always communi-cated between all vehicles in the affectedarea.
This may be the case if: No or insufficient Internet connection.
The maneuvers (steering wheel move- ments, acceleration or braking) made bythe vehicles on slippery surfaces are tooweak for friction between the tires androad to be detected.
Vehicles that have detected slippery roadconditions or activated hazard warningflashers have not activated the function.
Vehicles that have detected slippery roadconditions or activated hazard warningflashers are not equipped with the func-tion.
Insufficient GPS/satellite navigation mayprevent warnings.
Slippery road conditions were detected orhazard warning flashers were activated ona road that is not registered in the VolvoCars database.

STARTING AND DRIVING
427
Fuel
Volvo recommends the use of detergent gas- oline to control engine deposits.
Deposit control gasoline (gasoline with detergent additives)
Detergent gasoline is effective in keeping injectors and intake valves clean. Consistentuse of deposit control gasolines will helpensure good driveability and fuel economy. Ifyou are not sure whether the gasoline containsdeposit control additives, check with the serv-ice station operator.
NOTE
Volvo recommends not using external fuel injector cleaning systems, e.g. do not adddetergent additives to gasoline before orafter refueling.
Unleaded fuelAll Volvo vehicles have a three-way catalytic converter and must only use unleaded gaso-line. US and Canadian regulations require thatpumps delivering unleaded gasoline arelabeled "UNLEADED". Only the nozzles ofthese pumps will fit in your vehicle's fuel fillerinlet. It is unlawful to dispense leaded fuel intoa vehicle labeled "unleaded gasoline only".Leaded gasoline damages the three-way cata-lytic converter and the heated oxygen sensor system. Repeated use of leaded gasoline willlessen the effectiveness of the emission con-trol system and could result in loss of emissionwarranty coverage. State and local vehicleinspection programs will make detection ofmisfueling easier, possibly resulting in emis-sion test failure for misfueled vehicles.
NOTE
Some U.S. and Canadian gasolines contain an octane enhancing additive calledmethyl-cyclopentadienyl manganese tricar-bonyl (MMT). If such fuels are used, yourEmission Control System performancemay be affected, and the Check EngineLight (malfunction indicator light) locatedon your instrument panel may light. If thisoccurs, please return your vehicle to atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian for service.
Gasoline containing alcohol and ethers, "Oxygenated fuels"
Some fuel suppliers sell gasoline containing "oxygenates" which are usually alcohols orethers. In some areas, state or local lawsrequire that the service pump be marked indi-cating use of alcohols or ethers. However,there are areas in which the pumps areunmarked. If you are not sure whether there isalcohol or ethers in the gasoline you buy,check with the service station operator. To meet seasonal air quality standards, someareas require the use of "oxygenated" fuel. Volvo permits the use of the following "oxy- genated" fuels. However, the specified octaneratings must still be met.
Alcohol - Ethanol
Fuels containing up to 10% ethanol by volume may be used. Ethanol may also be referred toas Ethyl alcohol, or "Gasohol". Ethers - MTBE/ETBE: Fuels containing up to 22% MTBE/ETBE by volume may be used.
MethanolDo not use gasolines containing methanol(methyl alcohol, wood alcohol). This practicecan result in vehicle performance deteriorationand can damage critical parts in the fuel sys-tem. Such damage may not be covered underthe New Vehicle Limited Warranty.

Tire direction of rotation Tires with tread designed to roll in only one direction are marked with an arrow on thesidewall.
The arrow shows the tire's direction of rotation.
The tire should maintain the same direc- tion of rotation throughout its service life.
Tires should only be moved between thefront and back, never from right to left orvice versa.
Incorrectly mounted tires impair the vehi-cle's braking properties and ability to forceaside rain, snow and slush.
The tires with the most tread shouldalways be mounted on the rear wheels tohelp reduce the risk of skidding.
NOTE
Use tires of the same type, dimensions and make (manufacturer) on each axle.
