SPECIAL TEXTS

The owner's manual and other manuals contain
safety instructions and all warning, important
and note texts, which must be read. Some func-
tions only apply to certain markets.
WARNING
GETTING STARTED
Volvo On Call – The system's services only
work in areas where the Volvo On Call partners
have mobile coverage and in the markets where
Volvo On Call is available.
Just as with mobile phones, atmospheric distur-
bances or sparse transmitter coverage may lead
to connection being impossible, e.g. in sparsely
populated areas.
For warning, important and note texts for Volvo
On Call services, see the contract applicable to
the Volvo On Call subscription as well as the
Owner's Manual.
Sensus Navigation* – Direct all your attention
to the road and make sure that all your concen-
tration is on driving. Follow applicable traffic leg-
islation and drive with good judgment. Due to
weather conditions or time of year affecting the
road conditions, some recommendations may be
less reliable.
OVERVIEW, EXTERIOR
Tailgate – Bear in mind the risk of pinching
when opening/closing the tailgate. Check that
no one is near the tailgate as a pinching injury
could have serious consequences. Always oper-
ate the tailgate with caution.
Keyless locking/unlocking* – Check that chil-
dren or other passengers are not at risk of crush-
06
ing when all the windows are closed with the
remote control key or keyless opening* with a
door handle.
OVERVIEW, INTERIOR
If the car is not equipped with a switch for acti-
vating/deactivating the passenger airbag, then
the passenger airbag is always activated. Never
use a rear-facing child seat on the front passen-
ger seat when the airbag is activated. The pas-
senger airbag must always be activated when
front-facing passengers (children and adults) are
sitting in the front passenger seat. Do not put
objects in front of or above the dashboard where
the passenger airbag is located.
The remote control key must always be taken
out of the car when leaving it. Make sure that
the car's electrical system is an ignition mode 0,
particularly if there are children in the car.
Parking brake should always be used when
parking on a slope. Engaging a gear or the auto-
matic transmission's P position is not sufficient
to hold the car stationary in all situations.
POWER FRONT SEATS
Adjust the position of the driver's seat before
setting off, never while driving. Make sure that
the seat is in locked position in order to avoid
personal injury in the event of sudden braking or
an accident.
FOLDING THE BACKRESTS IN THE REAR
SEAT
Check that the backrests are locked properly
after being raised or lowered, and that the head
restraints are locked properly after being raised.
The head restraints on the outer seats in the sec-
ond seat row must always be raised when the
third seat row* is occupied by passengers.
PASSENGER COMPARTMENT CLIMATE CON-
TROL
Heated seats* must not be used by people who
find it difficult to perceive an increase in tem-
perature due to numbness or who otherwise
have problems operating the controls for the
heated seats. Otherwise they may suffer burn
injuries.
Preconditioning can be started via a timer set
far in advance. Do not use preconditioning if the
car is equipped with a heater*:
In unventilated spaces indoors. Exhaust gases
•
are emitted if the heater starts.
In locations with combustible or flammable
•
material nearby. Fuel, gas, long grass, saw-
dust, etc. may ignite.
When there is a risk that the heater's exhaust
•
line may be blocked. For example, deep snow
inside the front right-hand wheel housing can
obstruct the heater's ventilation.
CONNECTIONS
Only use accessories that are undamaged and
•
fault-free. The accessories must have a CE
marking, UL marking or an equivalent safety
marking.
Accessories must be rated for 230 V and 50
•
Hz with connectors designed for the socket.
Never allow sockets, connectors or accesso-
•
ries to come into contact with water or other
liquids. Do not touch or use the socket if it
appears to be damaged or has come into con-
tact with water or other liquid.
Do not connect junction sockets, adapters or
•
extension cables to the socket as these can
override the socket's safety features.
The socket is equipped with a protective
•
cover, ensure that nothing protrudes in or
damages the socket preventing the cover from
doing its job. Do not leave children in the car
unsupervised when the socket is active.
DRIVER SUPPORT
The driver support systems available in the car
are designed to be supplementary aids for the
driver but cannot handle all situations in all traf-
fic, weather and road conditions. They can never
be a substitute for the driver's attention and
judgement. The driver is always responsible for
ensuring the car is driven in a safe manner, at
the appropriate speed, with an appropriate dis-
tance to other vehicles, and in accordance with
the traffic rules and regulations in force. The
driver always bears ultimate responsibility for
braking and steering the car.
Before using the car, it is recommended that you
read all of the sections in the owner's manual
relating to driver support systems in the car.
PARK ASSIST
Park Assist Pilot is supplementary driver sup-
port but it cannot handle all situations. The func-
tion is only intended to assist the driver during
parallel and perpendicular parking. The driver
bears full responsibility for parking the car safely
and braking when necessary. The scanning may
miss objects positioned deep in the parking
space. The driver always bears responsibility for
assessing whether the space offered by Park
Assist Pilot is suitable for parking.
Park assist camera is a supplementary driver
aid for parking the car. The function can never
replace the driver's attention and judgement.
The cameras have blind spots where obstacles
cannot be detected. Pay particular attention if
there are people and animals near the car. Bear
in mind that the front of the car may swing out
towards oncoming traffic during the parking
manoeuvre.
Before using the car, it is recommended that you
read all of the sections in the owner's manual
relating to driver support systems in the car.
VOICE COMMANDS
The driver always holds overall responsibility for
driving the vehicle in a safe manner and comply-
ing with all applicable rules of the road.
