Level control

The car's system for level control endeavours
to maintain a constant height regardless of
load (up to the maximum permissible weight).
When the car is stationary the rear of the car
lowers slightly, which is normal.

When driving in hilly terrain and hot
climates

Under certain circumstances, there may be a
risk of overheating when towing a trailer. If the
engine and drive system overheats, a warning
symbol comes on in the driver display and a
message is displayed.

The automatic gearbox selects the optimum
gear depending on load and engine speed.

Steep inclines

Do not lock the automatic gearbox in a higher
gear than the engine "can cope with" - it is not
always a good idea to drive at a high gear with
low engine speed.

Parking on a hill

1. Depress the brake pedal fully.

2. Activate the parking brake.

3. Select gear position

4. Release the brake pedal.

Block the wheels with chocks when parking a
car with hitched trailer on a hill.

Starting on a hill

1. Depress the brake pedal fully.

2. Select gear position

3. Releasing the parking brake.

4. Release the brake pedal and start driving

off.

Trailer stability assist

The function of trailer stability assist (TSA

)

is to stabilise cars towing trailers in situations
where they begin snaking. The function is
included in the stability system ESC

Reasons for snaking

The snaking phenomenon can occur with any
car/trailer combination. Snaking normally
occurs at high speeds. However, there is a risk
of it occurring at lower speeds if the trailer is
overloaded or the load is improperly distrib-
uted, e.g. too far back.

In order for snaking to occur, there must be a
triggering factor, e.g.:

•

Car with trailer subjected to a sudden and
powerful side wind.

•

Car with trailer drives on an uneven road
surface or in a pothole.

•

Sweeping steering wheel movements.

If snaking has started, it could be difficult or
even impossible to suppress. This makes the
car/trailer combination difficult to control and
there is a risk that you could, for example, end
up in the wrong lane or leave the carriageway.

Trailer stability assist function

The trailer stability assist function continually
monitors the car's movements, particularly lat-

eral movements. If snaking is detected, the
front wheels are individually braked. This
serves to stabilise the car/trailer combination.
This is often enough to help the driver regain
control of the car.

If snaking is not eliminated the first time that
trailer stability assist intervenes, the car/trailer
combination is braked with all wheels and
engine power is reduced. Once snaking has
been gradually suppressed and the car/trailer
combination is stable once again, the system
stops regulating and the driver once again has
full control of the car.

NOTE

The stability function is deactivated if the
driver selects Sport mode by deactivating

ESC

via the menu system in the centre

display.

Trailer stability assist may fail to intervene if
the driver uses severe steering wheel move-
ments to try to rectify the snaking because in
such a situation the system cannot determine
whether it is the trailer or the driver causing
the snaking.

When Trailer Stability Assist
(TSA) is operating, the ESC
symbol flashes in the driver
display.

Towbar-mounted bicycle rack

When using a bicycle rack, the bicycle racks
that Volvo has developed are recommended.

This is in order to avoid damage to the car and
in order to achieve the maximum possible
safety during a journey. Volvo's bicycle racks
are available for purchase at authorised Volvo
dealers.

Carefully follow the instructions enclosed with
the bicycle rack.

•

Bicycle rack including load must weigh a
maximum of 75 kg (165 pounds).

•

The bicycle rack may be designed for a
maximum of three bicycles.

WARNING

Incorrect use of the bicycle rack may cause

damage to the towbar and car.
The bicycle rack can loosen from the tow-

bar if it

•

is incorrectly fitted on the towball

•

is overloaded, see the bicycle rack's
instructions for maximum load weight

•

is used for carrying something other
than bicycles.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STARTING AND DRIVING

}}

* Option/accessory.

513

The car's driving characteristics are affected
when a bicycle rack is fitted on the towbar.
For example, due to:

•

increased weight

•

reduced acceleration capacity

•

reduced ground clearance

•

changed braking capacity.

Recommendations for loading
bicycles on the bicycle rack

The larger the distance between the load's
centre of gravity and the towball, the greater
the load on the towbar.

Load according to the following recommenda-
tions:

•

Fit the heaviest bicycle furthest in, closest
to the car.

•

Keep the load symmetrical and as close to
the centre of the car as possible, e.g. by
loading the bicycles facing alternately if
several bicycles are loaded.

•

Remove loose objects from the bicycle for
transportation, e.g. bicycle basket, battery,
child seat. Partly to reduce the load on the
towbar and bicycle rack, and partly to
reduce the wind resistance, which affects
fuel consumption.

•

Do not use protective covers on the bicy-
cles. This may affect manoeuvrability,
impair visibility and increase fuel con-

sumption. It may also lead to an increased
load on the towbar.

Towbar

(p. 505)

Towing

During towing, the car is towed by another
vehicle by means of a towline.

Towing a Twin Engine is not permitted as this
will damage the electric motor. Instead, the
car must be transported raised with all the
wheels on a recovery vehicle's platform, nei-
ther of the wheel pairs may have road contact.

When towing another car

Towing a car requires a lot of energy - use the

Constant AWD

drive mode. This then

charges the hybrid battery, in combination
with improving the car's driving characteristics
and roadholding.

Find out the statutory maximum speed limit
for towing before the towing begins.

Jump starting

Tow-starting the motor is not permitted as
this will damage the electric motor. Use a
donor battery if the starter battery is dis-
charged and the engine does not start.

IMPORTANT

The electric drive motor and the catalytic
converter may be damaged during
attempts to tow-start the car.

3. Screw in the towing eye until it reaches its

end stop.

Screw the eye in firmly. For example,
thread through the wheel bolt wrench

and

use it as a lever.

IMPORTANT

It is important that the towing eye is firmly
screwed into place - right in until it stops.

Recovery

For recovery, the car is taken away with the
help of another vehicle.

Call a recovery service for recovery assistance.

The towing eye can be used to pull the car up
onto a recovery vehicle with a flatbed plat-
form.

IMPORTANT

Note that cars with Twin Engine must
always be transported raised up with all
the wheels on the recovery vehicle's plat-
form.

Applies to cars with level control
