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 – 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 disturban-
ces or sparse transmitter coverage may lead to
connection being impossible, e.g. in sparsely popu-
lated 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.
Keyless locking/unlocking* – Check that children
or other passengers are not at risk of crushing
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 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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 numbness or who otherwise have prob-
lems 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 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.
CONNECTIONS
Only use accessories that are undamaged and
•
fault-free. The accessories must have a CE mark-
ing, 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 accessories
•
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 contact with water or
other liquid.
Do not connect junction sockets, adapters or
•
extension cables to the socket as these can over-
ride 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 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. The function is
only intended to assist the driver during parallel and
perpendicular parking. The driver bears full respon-
sibility for parking the car safely and braking when
necessary. The scanning may miss objects posi-
tioned 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 peo-
ple 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 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
OVERVIEW, INTERIOR
The OFF ROAD drive mode must not be used
while driving with a trailer without trailer connector.

lows.

When cleaning the centre display, use a microfibre
cloth that is free from sand and similar. When
cleaning the centre display, only use gentle pres-

on the centre display. Do not use window cleaning
agent, other cleaning agents, aerosol spray, sol-
vents, alcohol, ammonia or cleaning agent contain-
ing abrasive. Never use abrasive cloths, paper tow-
els or tissue paper, as these could scratch the dis-
play.
FOLDING THE BACKRESTS IN THE REAR SEAT

the backrest is to be folded down. Nor may the
seatbelts be connected.
