Using the electrical outlets

The 12 V outlet can be used for devices
intended for this such as MP3 players, cool-
ers and cellular phones.

The ignition must be in at least mode

for the

outlets to supply current. The outlets will then
be active as long as there is sufficient charge
in the start battery.

If the engine is turned off and the vehicle is
locked, the outlets will be deactivated. If the
engine is turned off and the vehicle remains
unlocked, the sockets will remain active for up
to 7 minutes.

Bear in mind that using the electrical out-
lets when the engine is off could cause the
starter battery to have too low of a charge
level, which could limit other functionality.

Accessories connected to the electrical
outlets can be activated even when the
vehicle electrical system is off or if precon-
ditioning is used. For this reason, discon-
nect plugs when they are not in use to pre-
vent the starter battery from becoming dis-
charged.

WARNING

•

Do not use accessories with large or
heavy plugs – they could damage the
outlet or come loose while you are driv-
ing.

•

Do not use accessories that could
cause disruptions to e.g. the vehicle's
radio receiver or electrical system.

•

Position the accessory so that there is
no risk of it injuring the driver or pas-
sengers in the event of heavy braking
or a collision.

•

Pay attention to connected accessories
as they can generate heat that could
burn passengers or the interior.

Using 12 V outlets

1. Remove the stopper (tunnel console) or

fold down the cover (trunk/cargo com-
partment) over the socket and plug in the
device.

2. Unplug the device and put the stopper

back in (tunnel console) or fold up the
cover (trunk/cargo compartment) when
the socket is not in use or left unattended.

The maximum power is 120 W (10 A) per
outlet.

Loading recommendations

There are a number of things that are impor-
tant to consider when carrying loads in or on
the vehicle.

Load-carrying capacity is determined by the
vehicle's curb weight. The total weight of all
passengers and any installed accessories
reduces the vehicle's load-carrying capacity by
the corresponding amount.

WARNING

The vehicle's driving characteristics change

depending on the weight and position of

the load.

Loading the cargo compartment/trunk

Keep the following in mind when loading:

•

Position objects so they are pressing
against the rear seat backrests.

•

Heavy objects should be positioned as low
as possible. Avoid placing heavy objects
on folded-down seat backrests.

•

Cover sharp corners with a soft cloth or
similar to help prevent damage to the
upholstery.

•

Use the load anchoring eyelets and ten-
sioning straps or similar to secure all
objects.

WARNING

In a head-on collision at a speed of

50 km/h (30 mph), an unsecured object

weighing 20 kg (44 pounds) can reach a

projectile weight equivalent to 1000 kg

(2200 pounds).

WARNING

If objects are loaded higher than the upper

edge of the side windows, leave a 10 cm

(4 in.) space between the objects and the

window. Objects placed closer to this

could impede the function of the inflatable

curtain concealed inside the headlining.

WARNING

Always secure the load. Otherwise, it may

shift during heavy braking and injure peo-

ple in the vehicle.
Cover sharp edges and sharp corners with

something soft.
Turn off the engine and apply the parking

brake when loading/unloading long

objects. Otherwise, it is possible for the

load to reach the gear lever or gear selector

and move it to a drive position – which

could cause the vehicle to begin rolling.

Extra cargo space

The rear seat backrests can be folded down

to increase cargo space in the cargo compart-

ment/trunk and simplify loading. If the rear
seat backrests are folded down, make sure
that no objects loaded into the vehicle prevent
the WHIPS system for the front seats from
functioning correctly.

A ski hatch

in the rear seat can be folded

down to carry skis or other long, thin objects.

Roof loads and load carriers

Volvo-developed load carriers are recom-
mended for carrying loads on the roof of the
vehicle.

Volvo load carriers are specially designed to
help prevent damage to your vehicle and help
ensure maximum safety while driving. Volvo
load carriers are available from authorized
Volvo retailers.

Carefully follow the installation instructions
provided with the load carriers.

•

Distribute the load evenly throughout the
load carriers. Place heavier cargo at the
bottom of the load.

•

Check periodically to ensure that the load
carriers and load are properly secured.
Secure the load firmly using tie straps or
similar.

•

If the load is longer than the vehicle, such
as a canoe or kayak, attach the towing
eyelet in its front outlet and secure the tie
straps in it.

•

The vehicle's wind resistance and fuel
consumption increase with the size of the
load.

•

Drive smoothly. Avoid rapid acceleration,
hard braking and fast cornering.

WARNING

The vehicle's center of gravity and driving

characteristics are altered by roof loads.
Follow the vehicle's specifications regar-

ding weights and maximum permitted

load.

mended.

Introduction

The maintenance services contain several
checks that require special instruments and
tools and therefore must be performed by a
qualified technician. To keep your Volvo in top
condition, specify time-tested and proven
Genuine Volvo Parts and Accessories.

The Federal Clean Air Act - U.S.

The Federal Clean Air Act requires vehicle
manufacturers to furnish written instructions
to the ultimate purchaser to assure the proper
servicing and function of the components that
control emissions. These services, which are
listed in the "Warranty and Service Records
Information" booklet, are not covered by the
warranty. You will be required to pay for labor
and material used.

Maintenance

Your Volvo passed several major inspections
before it was delivered to you, in accordance
with Volvo specifications. The maintenance
procedures outlined in the Warranty and Serv-
ice Records Information booklet, many of
which will positively affect your vehicle's emis-
sions, should be performed as indicated. It is
recommended that receipts for vehicle emis-
sion maintenance be retained in case ques-
tions arise concerning maintenance. Inspec-
tion and maintenance should also be per-
formed anytime a malfunction is observed or
suspected.

warranties.

Periodic maintenance helps minimize
emissions

•

Refer to your Service and Warranty
Booklet for a comprehensive service
and maintenance schedule up to
240,000 km (150,000 miles). This
program contains inspections and ser-
vices necessary for the proper function
of your vehicle and includes compo-
nents that affect vehicle emissions.

•

The Warranty and Service Records
Information booklet also contains
detailed information concerning the
warranties that apply to your vehicle.

On-board Diagnostic System

OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized
engine management system. It stores diag-
nostic information about your vehicle's emis-
sion controls. It can light the Check Engine
light (MIL) if it detects an emission control
"fault." A "fault" is a component or system
that is not performing within an expected
range. A fault may be permanent or temporary.
OBD II will store a message about any fault.

Emission inspection readiness

How do states use OBD II for emission
inspections?

Many states connect a computer directly to a
vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can
then read "faults." In some states, this type of
inspection has replaced the tailpipe emission
test.

How can my vehicle fail OBD II emission
inspection?

Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspec-
tion for any of the following reasons:

•

If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, your
vehicle may fail inspection.

•

If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit,
but went out without any action on your
part, OBD II will still have a recorded fault.
Your vehicle may pass or fail, depending
on the inspection practices in your area.

•

If you had recent service that required dis-
connecting the battery, OBD II diagnostic
information may be incomplete and "not
ready" for inspection. A vehicle that is not
ready may fail inspection.

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

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

574

How can I prepare for my next OBD II
emission inspection?

•

If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit or
was lit but went out without service, have
your vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary,
serviced by a qualified Volvo technician.

•

If you recently had service for a lit Check
Engine light, or if you had service that
required disconnecting the battery, a
period of driving is necessary to bring the
OBD II system to "ready" for inspection.
Two half-hour trips of mixed stop-and-go/
highway driving are typically needed to
allow OBD II to reach readiness. Your
Volvo retailer can provide you with more
information on planning a trip.

•

Maintain your vehicle in accordance with
your vehicle's maintenance schedule.

Owner maintenance

Periodic maintenance requirements and inter-
vals are described in your vehicle's Warranty
and Service Records Information booklet.

The following points can be carried out
between the normally scheduled maintenance
services.

Each time the vehicle is refueled:

•

Check the engine oil level.

•

Clean the windshield, windshield wipers,
headlights, and taillights.

Monthly:

•

Check cold tire pressure in all tires.
Inspect the tires for wear.

•

Check that engine coolant and other fluid
levels are between the indicated "min"
and "max" markings.

•

Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass
cleaner and soft paper towels.

•

Wipe driver information displays with a
soft cloth.

•

Visually inspect battery terminals for cor-
rosion. Corrosion may indicate a loose ter-
minal connector, or a battery near the end
of its useful service life. Consult your Volvo
retailer for additional information.

As needed:

Wash the vehicle, including the undercarriage,
to reduce wear that can be caused by a
buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can be
caused by salt residues.

Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at
the base of the windshield, and from other pla-
ces where they may collect.

technicians is available online for purchase

Data transfer between vehicle and

workshop over Wi-Fi

Volvo workshops have a designated Wi-Fi
network for data transfer between your vehi-
cle and the workshop. Your visit to the work-
shop will be easier and more effective when
diagnostics information and software can be
transferred over the workshop's network.

At the workshop, your service technician can
connect your vehicle to the workshop's Wi-Fi
network to perform troubleshooting and
download software. For this type of communi-
cation, the vehicle only connects to a work-
shop's network. It is not possible to connect
the vehicle to another Wi-Fi network (e.g. your
home network) in the same way as to a work-
shop's network.

Connecting with remote key

Connection is usually managed by the service
technician, who will use the remote key but-
tons. It is therefore important to bring a key
with buttons with you when you visit the
workshop. Pressing the lock button on the
remote key three times will connect the vehi-
cle to the workshop's Wi-Fi network.

When the car is connected to a Wi-Fi net-
work, the

symbol appears in the center

display.

WARNING

The vehicle may not be driven when it is

connected to the workshop's networks and

systems.
