CAUTION

ing cable is still plugged in. Make sure to
pull out the charging cable from the charg-
ing socket before starting the vehicle.
1. The remote key must be inside the vehicle.
For vehicles with Passive Start, the key

ger compartment. With the optional key-
less locking/unlocking function*, the key
can be anywhere in the vehicle.

WARNING
Never use more than one inlay mat at a
•
time on the driver's floor. If any other
type of floor mat is used, remove the
original mat from the driver's seat floor
before driving. All types of mats must
be securely anchored in the attach-
ment points in the floor. Make sure the
floor mat does not impede the move-
ment of the brake pedal or accelerator
pedal in any way, as this could be a
serious safety hazard.
Volvo's floor mats are specially manu-
•
factured for your vehicle. They must be
properly secured in the attachment
1
as
points in the floor to help ensure they
cannot slide and become trapped
under the pedals.
The starter motor will crank until the engine
starts or until overheating protection is trig-
gered.
During normal start conditions, the vehicle's
electric motor will be prioritized and the gaso-
line engine will remain off. This means that
once the start knob is turned clockwise, the
electric motor has been "started" and the vehi-
cle is ready to be driven. The warning and
information symbols in the instrument panel
