Volvo 2008 S40 Owner's Manual page 80

NOTE
The sunlight sensor monitors the side of the vehicle from which the sun shines into the passenger compartment. This
means that the temperature may differ slightly between the left and right air vents, even if the climate system
temperature is set to be the same for both sides of the passenger compartment.
Side windows and optional moonroof
The electronic climate control system will function best if the windows and moonroof are closed. If you drive with the
windows or moonroof open, it may be preferable to manually adjust the temperature and blower control (the LED in
the AUTO switch should be off).
Acceleration
The air conditioning system is temporarily switched off during full throttle acceleration.
