• If the panel vents are open, a certain amount of air will always flow through, regardless of the position the function dial is in. To increase the flow of air to either the floor or the windows, close the panel vents and open

the outer vents

• The panel vents may emit some condensation when the air conditioning is initially switched on and is quite normal.

This may occur if the ambient temperature and humidity are high.

• The sunlight sensor (located at the top center of the dashboard) should not be covered in any way as this could cause incorrect information to be sent to the ECC system.

• The air conditioning is momentarily disengaged during full-throttle acceleration.

Difficult weather conditions

When driving in very humid conditions, heavy rain, sleet, etc., it may be better to use the manual rather than the automatic setting to defrost the windows. Set the mode selector to "Defrost"

fan speed to midrange. Also shut the middle air vents.

Faults in the ECC system

The RECIRCULATION ON and AC OFF lights will flash for approximately 20 seconds if a fault is detected in the ECC system.

If this flashing recurs the next time the system is switched on, the climate control unit should be checked by an authorized Volvo retailer.
