Fitting and removing cargo cover

In the extended position, the cargo cover pre-
vents visual access to the cargo area.

Fitting cargo cover

Insert one of the cargo cover's end pieces
in the recess in the side panel in the cargo
area.

Then insert the other end piece in the
recess in the side panel on the opposite
side.

Press down the end pieces on both sides -
one by one.
> When a "click" is heard and the red

marking on each end piece has disap-
peared, the cargo cover is attached -
check that it is affixed securely.

Fold the cargo cover's front panel forward
to eliminate the space between the cargo
cover and the rear seat's backrests.

The cover plate has two plastic parts that
act as support to hold it in place.

The plastic parts must not be used to hang
bags on. They are not designed for this
purpose and may break.

If the safety net

shall be used at the same

time as the cargo cover then the safety net
must be fitted first.

Operating cargo cover

There are two extended positions for the
cargo cover - a full-cover position and a load-
ing position, where it is partially extended to
make it easier to reach further into the cargo
area.

Full-cover position

1. Grip the handle and pull out the cargo

cover so that it slides over the side panels
in the cargo area. Pull to the end position.

2. Guide the cover's attachment pins into the

grooves in the side panels. Release, while
at the same time angling the handle
slightly upwards so that the attachment
pins hook in.
> The cargo cover is locked in the full-

cover position.

Do not load objects on top of the cargo
cover.

Loading mode

From the full-cover position:

Grasp the handle and pull it back until it
stops.

Angle the cover down.

Move the cover and its attachment pins
carefully forward and up over the hooks.
> The cover retracts until it stops in the

loading position.

Returning to full-cover position from loading
position:

1. Grip the handle and pull the cargo cover

out to the end position.

2. Release the handle so that the attachment

pins hook into the hooks.

With an automatic

cargo cover, the cover will

be retracted from full-cover position to loading
position every time the tailgate is opened, and
extended again when the tailgate is closed.
The cargo cover detects if something is
obstructing its movement and then retracts
automatically.

WARNING

Pay attention to the risk of crushing when

opening and closing with the automatic

cargo cover.

If the cargo area is loaded with a bulky load
then the automatic

cargo cover is moved

to retracted position in order to avoid it
making contact with the load.

Fitting and removing cargo cover

The cargo cover may not operate automati-
cally in low passenger compartment tem-
peratures.

Retracting

1. From the full-cover position:

Lift up the handle and pull it backward to
disengage the cargo cover's attachment
pins and then release.

From loading position:

Grip the handle and pull out the cargo
cover in the grooves - pull to the full-cover
position. Lift up the handle and pull it
backward to disengage the attachment
pins and then release.

2. Retract the cover with its attachment pins

outside of the side panels until it stops in
the retracted position.

Remember that a retracted cargo cover may
obstruct rearward visibility.

Fitting and removing safety grilles

The safety grille prevents loads or pets in the
cargo area from being thrown forward in the
passenger compartment under heavy brak-
ing.

The safety grille is crash-tested in accordance
with the ECE R17 legal requirement and fulfils
Volvo's strength requirements.

For safety reasons, the safety grille must
always be attached and anchored correctly.

WARNING

Under no circumstances may anybody

remain in the cargo area while the car is

moving. This is to avoid injury in the event

of heavy braking or an accident.

Installation

The safety grille must only be used in the
rear position (behind the rear seat) descri-
bed here.

Before first installing the safety grille, the
existing plastic roof mountings must be
replaced with steel roof mountings. Volvo rec-
ommends that replacing roof mountings is
performed at an authorised Volvo workshop or
retailer.

1. Fold the rear seat's backrest forward.

2. Make sure that the safety grille is turned in

the right direction. Lift in the safety grille
through one of the rear side doors.

Position the safety grille's brackets on the
roof mountings.

The next step is facilitated if two people
hold the safety grille in the right position.

Insert the supplied screw and tighten
using the supplied 6 mm Allen key. Repeat
on the other side. Recommended tighten-
ing torque: 20 Nm (15 foot-pounds).
> Check that the safety grille is properly

fitted.

5. Restore the backrest to the upright posi-

tion.

For more information about the tools required
and methods for fitting/removal, see the
installation instructions

that were included

with the initial purchase.

The protective grille cannot be folded up or
down when a cargo cover is fitted.

Volvo service programme

To keep the car as safe and reliable as possi-
ble, follow the Volvo service programme as
specified in the Service and Warranty Book-
let.

Volvo recommends engaging an authorised
Volvo workshop to perform the service and
maintenance work. Volvo workshops have the
personnel, special tools and service literature
that can provide the highest quality of service.

For the Volvo warranty to apply, check and
follow the instructions in the Service and
Warranty Booklet.

Service and repair

Service the car regularly. Follow Volvo's rec-
ommended service intervals.

If inspection and repair are required then only
an authorised Volvo workshop may carry out
the work.

WARNING

Do not carry out any repairs of your own on

this vehicle. Electrical cables and/or com-

ponents that have detached must only be

rectified by an authorised workshop - an

authorised Volvo workshop is recom-

mended.

Charging cable with control unit

Do not modify the control unit in any way.

Data transfer between car and

workshop via Wi-Fi

Volvo's workshops have a specific Wi-Fi net-
work for data transfer between your car and
the workshop. Your workshop visit will be
simpler and more efficient when the transfer
of diagnostic information and software can
take place via the workshop's network.

During a workshop visit, your service techni-
cian may want to connect your car to the
workshop's network via Wi-Fi to perform
fault-tracing and software download. For this
type of communication, the car only connects
to a workshop's network. It is not possible to
connect the car to another Wi-Fi network,
such as at home, in the same way as to a
workshop's network.

Connection with the remote control
key

Connection is normally handled by the service
technician who then uses the remote control
key buttons. That's why it's important to take
a key with buttons with you for the workshop
visit. Press three times on the lock button on
the remote control key to connect the car to
the workshop's network via Wi-Fi.

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

symbol appears in the centre

display.

Data download may affect other services
that transmit data, e.g. Internet radio. If the
effect on other services is experienced as
disruptive then the download can be inter-

to switch off or interrupt other services.

An update can be interrupted when the
ignition is switched off and the car is left.
