Climate control - sensors

The climate control system has a number of sen-
sors to help control the climate in the car.

Sensor location

Moisture sensor - in the casing by the inte-
rior rearview mirror.
Outside temperature sensor - in the right-
hand door mirror.
Sun sensor - on the upper side of the instru-
ment panel.
Temperature sensor for the passenger com-
partment - by the physical buttons in the
centre console.

Do not cover or block the sensors with cloth-
ing or other objects.

an air quality sensor that is fitted into the climate
control system air intake.

Perceived temperature (p. 183)

Perceived temperature

The climate control system regulates the climate
in the passenger compartment based on the
perceived temperature, not on actual tempera-
ture.

The temperature you select in the passenger
compartment corresponds to the physically per-
ceived temperature as affected by factors such
as the ambient temperature, air speed, humidity,
solar radiation, etc. in and around the car at the
time.

The system includes a sun sensor which detects
on which side the sun is shining into the passen-
ger compartment. This means that the tempera-
ture can differ between the right and left-hand
side's air vents despite the controls being set for
the same temperature on both sides.

Air quality

The materials selected for the passenger com-
partment and the air cleaning system ensure that
the air quality in the passenger compartment is
high.

Materials in the passenger
compartment

The interior of the passenger compartment is
designed to be pleasant and comfortable, even
for people with contact allergies and for asthma
sufferers.

Tested materials have been developed in order to
minimise the quantity of dust in the passenger
compartment and to contribute to making the
passenger compartment easier to keep clean.

The carpets in both the passenger compartment
and the cargo area are removable and easy to
remove and clean.

Use cleaning agents and car care products rec-
ommended by Volvo to clean the interior.

Air cleaning system

In addition to the passenger compartment filter,
Clean Zone Interior Package

* and the Interior Air

Quality System

* also help to maintain high air

quality in the passenger compartment.

Clean Zone

The Clean Zone function checks whether or not
all conditions have been met for good air quality
in the passenger compartment.

CLIMATE CONTROL

* Option/accessory.

184

The indicator is visible in the climate view in
the centre display.
The indicator is visible in the climate row
when the climate view is not open.

If the conditions have not been met then the

Clean Zone

text is white. When all conditions

have been met, this is indicated by the text
changing colour to blue.

Conditions that are checked:

•

That all doors and the tailgate are closed.

•

That all side windows and the panorama
roof

* are closed.

•

That the air quality system Interior Air Quality
System

* is activated.

•

That the ventilation fan is activated.

•

That the air recirculation is deactivated.

Clean Zone does not indicate that the air
quality is good. It only indicates that the con-
ditions for good air quality have been met.

Passenger compartment filter

All air entering the car's passenger compartment
is cleaned with a filter.

Replacing the passenger compartment
filter

To maintain high climate system performance,
the filter must be changed at regular intervals.
Follow the Volvo Service Programme for the rec-
ommended replacement intervals. If the car is
used in a severely contaminated environment, it
may be necessary to replace the filter more often.

There are different types of passenger com-
partment filter. Make sure that the correct fil-
ter is fitted.

Clean Zone Interior Package

Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) comprises
a series of modifications that keep the passen-
ger compartment even clearer from allergy and
asthma-inducing substances.

The following is included:

•

An enhanced fan function that means that
the fan starts when the car is unlocked with
the remote control key. The fan fills the pas-
senger compartment with fresh air. The func-
tion starts when required and is disengaged
automatically after a time or when one of the
passenger compartment doors is opened.
The amount of time the fan runs is reduced
gradually due to reduced need up until the
car is 4 years old.

•

The fully automatic air quality system Interior
Air Quality System (IAQS).

Interior Air Quality System

Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) is a fully auto-
matic air quality system that separates gases
and particles to reduce the levels of odours and
contaminants in the passenger compartment.

IAQS is a part of the Clean Zone Interior
Package (CZIP) and cleans the air in the passen-
ger compartment from contaminants such as par-
ticles, hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides and ground-
level ozone.

If the air quality sensor senses that the outside
air is contaminated, the air intake is closed and
air recirculation is activated.

The air quality sensor must always be enabled
to ensure the best air in the passenger com-
partment.

In a cold climate recirculation is limited so as
to prevent misting.

In the event of misting, the defrost functions
for windscreen, side windows and rear win-
dow should be used.

Activating/deactivating the air quality
sensor

It is possible to set whether the air quality sensor
should be activated/deactivated.

1. Press

Settings

in the top view in the centre

display.

2. Press
