 allows children to sit

comfortably and safely.

The child seat is specially designed to provide
children with good safety, together with the
car's seatbelt.

The child seat is approved for children who
weigh 15-36 kg (33-80 lbs) and are at least
97 cm (38 inches) tall.

Correct position, the seatbelt should be positioned in

on the shoulder.

Check before driving that:

•

the seat cushion in locked in position

•

the head restraint is adjusted at the same
height as the child's head, if possible, so
that it covers the entire back of the head

•

the seatbelt is in contact with the child's
body and is not slack or twisted

•

the seatbelt does not lie across the child's
throat or below the shoulder

•

the lap section of the seatbelt is posi-
tioned low over the pelvis to provide opti-
mal protection.

WARNING

Volvo recommends that repair or replace-

ment of the integrated child seat is only

performed by an authorised Volvo work-

shop. Do not make any modifications or

additions to the child seat. If an integrated

child seat has been subjected to a heavy

load, e.g. in connection with a collision,

then the seat cushion, seatbelt and back-

rest, or possibly the whole seat, must be

replaced. Even if the child seat appears to

be undamaged, it may not afford the same

level of protection. This also applies if the

seat cushion was in lowered position dur-

ing a collision or similar. The seat cushion

must also be replaced if it is heavily worn.

WARNING

If the instructions for the integrated child

seat are not followed then the child could

sustain serious injury in the event of an

accident.

Driver display

The driver display shows information about
the car and driving.

The driver display contains gauges, indicators
and indicator and warning symbols. The con-
tent of the driver display depends on the car's
equipment, settings and which functions are
active at that time.

The driver display is activated as soon as a
door is opened, i.e. in ignition position 

0

. The

driver display extinguishes after a while if it is
not used. To reactivate it, proceed with one of
the following:

•

Depress the brake pedal.

•

Activate ignition position

.

•

Open one of the doors.

WARNING

If the driver display should extinguish, not

illuminate on activation/start or be fully or

partially illegible, the car must not be used.

You should visit a workshop immediately.

Volvo recommends an authorised Volvo

workshop.

WARNING

In the event of a fault in the driver display

the information on e.g. brakes, airbags or

other safety systems may not be shown. In

which case, the driver cannot check the

Fuel gauge

The fuel gauge in the driver display shows the
fuel level in the tank.

The figure is schematic - parts may vary depending

on car model.

The beige zone in the fuel gauge indicates the
quantity of fuel in the tank.

When the fuel level is low and it is soon time
to refuel, the fuel pump symbol illuminates
and changes to amber. The trip computer also
indicates the distance to empty tank.

Hybrid gauge

In drive modes Hybrid and Pure, the driver
display shows a hybrid gauge that can help
the driver to drive the car in a more energy-
efficient way.

The hybrid gauge shows in different ways the
relationship between how much power is
being taken from the electric motor and how
much power is available.

Symbols in the hybrid gauge

Indicates current level for available
electric motor power. If the symbol
is filled in, it means that the electric
motor is in use.

If the symbol is not filled in, it means
that the electric motor is not in use.

Indicates the power level when the
combustion engine starts. If the
symbol is filled in, it means that the
combustion engine is in use.

Indicates the power level when the
internal combustion engine is due to
start. If the symbol is not filled in, it
means that the combustion engine is

not in use.

Indicator that shows that the hybrid
battery is being charged, e.g. if the
brake pedal is gently depressed.

Driver-requested power

The pointer in the hybrid gauge indicates the
amount of engine power requested by the
driver by regulating the accelerator pedal. The
higher the reading on the scale, the more
power is requested by the driver in the current
gear. The marker between the lightning flash
and the drop shows the point at which the
internal combustion engine starts.

DISPLAYS AND VOICE CONTROL

Example:

The car is started but stationary, no power is reques-

ted.

The electric motor cannot supply the amount of

engine power requested and the internal combustion

engine starts.

The car generates current to the battery, the battery

is charged, e.g. when the brake pedal is pressed

lightly or during engine braking down a hill.

Hybrid battery gauge

The hybrid battery gauge shows how much
energy there is in the hybrid battery.

The energy in the hybrid battery is used for the
electric motor, but also to cool or heat the car.
The trip computer calculates an approximate
distance for the energy left in the hybrid bat-
tery.

Trip computer

The car's trip computer records vales such as
e.g. distance, fuel consumption and average
speed whilst driving.

In order to facilitate fuel-efficient driving, infor-
mation is recorded about both instantaneous
and average fuel consumption. The informa-
tion from the trip computer can be shown in
the driver display.

Examples of trip computer information in the driver

display. The figure is schematic - parts may vary

depending on car model.

The following meters are included in the trip
computer:

•

Trip meter

•

Odometer

•

Instantaneous fuel consumption

•

Distance to empty tank

•

Distance to empty battery

•

Tourist - alternative speedometer

Units for distance, speed, etc. can be changed
via system settings in the centre display.

Trip meter

There are two trip meters, TM and TA.

TM can be reset manually and TA is reset
automatically if the car is not used for at least
four hours.

The following information is registered while
driving:

•

Mileage

•

Driving time

•

Average speed

•

Average fuel consumption

The values apply from the trip meter's latest
reset.

Odometer

The odometer records the car's total mileage.
This value cannot be reset to zero.

Instantaneous fuel consumption

This gauge shows the fuel consumption that
the car has at the moment. The value is upda-
ted approximately every second.

DISPLAYS AND VOICE CONTROL

95

Distance to empty tank

The trip computer calculates the
remaining mileage with the fuel
available in the tank.

The calculation is based on the average fuel
consumption over the last 30 km (20 miles)
and the remaining drivable fuel quantity.

When the gauge shows "----", there is not
enough fuel left to be able to calculate the
remaining mileage. Refuel as soon as possible.

NOTE

There may be a slight deviation if the driv-
ing style has been changed.

An economic driving style generally results in a
longer driving distance.

Distance to empty battery

The approximate distance that can
be driven with the remaining amount
of energy in the hybrid battery is
indicated adjacent to this symbol.

The calculation is based on the average con-
sumption of normally loaded vehicle, during
normal driving and taking into account
whether the air conditioning (AC) is switched
on or off. When changing between the 

Hybrid

and 

Pure

 drive modes, the calculated distance

increases since the 

Pure

 mode has reduced

climate settings (ECO climate).

No guaranteed range on electric power
remains when the gauge shows "----".

NOTE

There may be a slight deviation if the driv-
ing style has been changed.

An economic driving style generally results in a
longer driving distance.

Start value for fully charged hybrid battery

Since it is difficult to anticipate driving style
and other factors that affect the range for
electric operation, Volvo has decided to use a
start value when the car is fully charged. The
start value indicates an up-to figure instead of
a forecast for the range for electric operation.
The difference in start value between 

Hybrid

and 

Pure

 is due to the car being allowed to

use more energy from the hybrid battery in

Pure

 mode, as well as that the car changes

over to ECO climate.

Mileage for electric operation

In order to achieve the longest possible mile-
age for electric operation, the driver of an elec-
trically powered car also has to think about
energy conservation. The more consumers
there are (stereo, electric heating in windows/
mirrors/seats, very cold air from the climate

control system, etc.) that are active - the
shorter the potential mileage.

NOTE

In addition to high current take-off in the
passenger compartment, sudden accelera-
tion and braking, high speed, heavy loads,
low outside temperature and uphill gradi-
ents also reduce the possible driving dis-
tance.

Tourist - alternative speedometer

The alternative digital speedometer makes it
easier to drive in countries where speed limit
signs are in a different unit than that shown in
the car's instruments.

The digital speed is then shown in the oppo-
site unit to that shown in the analogue speed-
ometer. If the analogue speedometer is gradu-
ated in 

mph

, the digital speedometer shows

the corresponding speed in 

km/h

 and vice

versa.
