SPECIAL TEXTS

The owner's manual and other manuals contain
safety instructions and all warning, important and
note texts, which must be read. Some functions
only apply to certain markets.
WARNING
GETTING STARTED
Volvo On Call - For cars with Volvo On Call, the
services only work in areas where the car has
mobile coverage and in the markets where the serv-
ice is available. Just as with mobile phones, atmos-
pheric disturbances 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 concentration
is on driving. Follow applicable traffic legislation and
drive with good judgment. Due to weather condi-
tions 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 operate the tailgate
with caution.
OVERVIEW, INTERIOR
If the car is not equipped with a switch for activat-
ing/deactivating the passenger airbag, then the
passenger airbag is always activated. Never use a
rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat
when the airbag is activated. The passenger airbag
must always be activated when front-facing passen-
gers (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.
07
Remote control key must always be taken out
from the car when you leave it, and make sure the
car's electrical system is in ignition position 0 -
especially if there are children in the car.
Parking brake should always be used when park-
ing on a slope. Engaging a gear or the automatic
transmission's P position is not sufficient to hold
the car stationary in all situations.
CHARGING
The hybrid battery must only be charged at maxi-
•
mum permitted charging current or lower in
accordance with applicable local and national
recommendations for hybrid charging from 230 V
sockets/plugs.
The hybrid battery may only be charged using an
•
approved grounded 230 V socket (or equivalent
socket with a different voltage depending on the
market) or from a charging station with the loose
charging cable supplied by Volvo (Mode 3).
The control unit's ground fault breaker protects
•
the car, but there may still be a risk of overload-
ing the 230 V mains power circuit.
Charging the hybrid battery must only take place
•
with grounded and approved 230 V sockets. If
the capacity for the socket or fuse circuit is
unknown, ask a licensed electrician to check the
capacity. Charging above the capacity of a fuse
circuit may lead to fire or damage the fuse circuit.
The charging cable has a built-in circuit breaker.
•
Charging must only take place with grounded
and approved sockets.
Children should be supervised when in the vicin-
•
ity of the charging cable when it is plugged in.
High voltage in the charging cable. Contact with
•
high voltage can cause death or serious personal
injury.
Do not use the charging cable if it is damaged in
•
any way. A damaged or inoperative charging
cable must only be repaired by a workshop - an
authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.
Always position the charging cable so that it will
•
not be driven over, stepped on, tripped over or
damaged in some other way, or cause personal
injury.
Disconnect the charger from the wall outlet
•
before cleaning it.
Never connect the charging cable to an exten-
•
sion cord or a multiple plug socket.
Avoid visible worn or damaged mains sockets
•
since they may lead to fire damage and/or per-
sonal injury if used.
Also, refer to the manufacturer's instructions for
using the charging cable and its components.
POWER FRONT SEATS
Adjust the position of the driver's seat before set-
ting off, never while driving. Make sure that the seat
is in locked position in order to avoid personal injury
in the event of heavy braking or an accident.
FOLDING THE BACKRESTS IN THE REAR SEAT
Make sure the backrests are properly locked after
they are lowered and raised. Make sure the head
restraints are properly locked after they are raised.
PASSENGER COMPARTMENT CLIMATE CON-
TROL
Heated seats* must not be used by people who
find it difficult to perceive an increase in tempera-
ture due to a lack of sensation or who otherwise
have problems operating the controls for the
heated seats. Otherwise they may suffer burn inju-
ries.
Preconditioning can be started via a timer set far
in advance. Do not use preconditioning (applies to
fuel-driven heater):
In unventilated spaces indoors. Exhaust gases
•
are emitted if the heater starts.
In locations with combustible or flammable mate-
•
rial nearby. Fuel, gas, long grass, sawdust, 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.
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 traffic, 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 distance 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 relat-
ing to driver support systems in the car.
PARK ASSIST
Park Assist Pilot is supplementary driver support
but it cannot handle all situations. It is only intended
to assist the driver during parallel and perpendicular
parking. The driver bears full responsibility for park-
ing the car safely and braking when necessary. The
scanning may miss objects positioned deep in the
parking space. The driver always bears responsibil-
ity 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. It 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. Objects/obstacles may be closer to
the car than they appear to be on the screen.
Before using the car, it is recommended that you
read all of the sections in the owner's manual relat-
ing to driver support systems in the car.
VOICE COMMANDS
The driver always holds overall responsibility for
driving the vehicle in a safe manner and complying
with all applicable rules of the road.
IMPORTANT
