  • Page 6 To buckle: Pull the belt out far enough to insert the latch plate into the receptacle until a distinct click is heard. The seat belt retractor is normally "unlocked" and you can move freely, provided that the shoulder belt is not pulled out too far. The retractor will lock up as follows: if the belt is pulled out rapidly during braking and acceleration...
  • Page 7 Never repair the belt on your own; have this work done by an authorized Volvo retailer only. Any device used to induce slack into the shoulder belt portion of the three-point belt system will have a detrimental effect on the amount of protection available to you in the event of a collision.
  • Page 8 As an enhancement to the three-point seat belt system, your Volvo is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). The Volvo SRS consists of an airbag (2) on both the driver's and passenger's sides and seat belt tensioners in both front door pillars (4). The system is designed to supplement the protection provided by the three-point seat belt system.
  • Page 9 SRS yourself. Attempting to do so may result in serious personal injury. If a problem arises, take your car to the nearest authorized Volvo retailer for inspection as soon as possible. pg. 5 Front airbags - SRS A self-diagnostic system incorporated in the sensor monitors the SRS.

  • Page 11 Collisions can occur where only one of the airbags deploys. NOTE: Volvo's dual-stage airbags: If the impact is less severe, but severe enough to present a clear injury risk, the dual-stage airbags are triggered at just 70% of its total capacity. If the impact is more severe, the dual-stage airbags are triggered with full capacity.
  • Page 12 Seat belts - the heart of the Volvo safety system The heart of the Volvo safety system is the three-point seat belt (a Volvo invention)! In order for the SRS system to provide the protection intended, seat belts must be worn at all times by everyone in the car. The SRS system is a supplement to the seat belts.
  • Page 13 Never try to open or repair any components of the SIPS airbag system. This should only be done by an authorized Volvo service technician. In order for the SIPS airbag to provide its best protection, both front seat occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt properly fastened.
  • Page 14 The IC system is a supplement to the Side Impact Protection System. It is not designed to deploy during collisions from the front or rear of the car or in rollover situations. Never try to open or repair any components of the IC system. This should only be done by an authorized Volvo service technician.
  • Page 15 severity, angle, speed and impact. The inflatable curtains are not designed to deploy in all side impact situations. In order for the IC to provide its best protection, both front seat occupants and both outboard rear seat occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt properly fastened; adults using the seat belt and children using the proper child restraint system.

    To meet seasonal air quality standards, some areas require the use of "oxygenated" fuel. Volvo allows the use of the following "oxygenated" fuels; however, the octane ratings listed on this page must still be met.
  • Page 52 Many fuels contain benzene as a solvent. Unburned benzene has been strongly linked to certain forms of cancer. If you live in an area where you must fill your own gas tank, take precautions. These may include: standing upwind away from the filler nozzle while refueling refueling only at gas stations with vapor recovery systems that fully seal the mouth of the filler neck during refueling wear neoprene gloves while handling a fuel filler nozzle.
  • Page 53 * If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Check Engine Light (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps. pg. 73 Starting the engine Starting the engine 1.
  • Page 54 When starting in cold weather, the transmission may shift up at slightly higher engine speeds than normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating temperature. CAUTION: The engine should be idling when you move the gear selector. Never accelerate until after you feel the transmission engage! Accelerating immediately after selecting a gear will cause harsh gear engagement and premature transmission wear.
  • Page 55 R (Reverse) Never engage R while the car is moving forward. N (Neutral) Neutral - no gear engaged. Use the parking brake. D (Drive) D is the normal driving position and should be used as often as possible to help improve fuel economy. The car should not be moving when shifting from R to the D position.
  • Page 56 Automatic transmission - shift gate positions The gear selector can be moved freely between N and D. Depressing the selector knob enables you to move the gear selector to positions P, R, N, D, 3, 2 and 1. W Winter/Wet driving mode - enhanced vehicle traction Mode W will only function if the gear selector is in the (D)rive position.
  • Page 57 Use this position when starting the engine or parking the car. Never use P while the car is in motion. The parking brake should also be set whenever the car is parked. The gear selector is mechanically locked in the P position (SHIFTLOCK). To release the gear selector from this position, the engine must be running (or the ignition key must be in position II) and the brake pedal must be depressed.
  • Page 58 Manual shifting - Geartronic You can move the gear selector freely between the (MAN)ual and (D)rive positions while driving. Gears 2, 3, and 4 have a "lock-up" function which reduces engine speed and helps save fuel. The currently selected gear will be displayed in the instrument panel (see page 25).
  • Page 59 The button in the center console (see the illustration on page 29) can be used at any time to switch between the two driving modes: Comfort or Sport. The system then adjusts the stiffness of the shock absorbers accordingly, for example when the type of road changes, or if the driver wishes to change driving style.
  • Page 60 To temporarily deactivate the system: Press the button in the center control panel (see illustration on page 29). The LED in the button will go out to indicate that the system is not in active mode. Press the button again to reactivate the system.

  • Page 61 "kickdown" to help improve fuel economy. Cooling system The risk for engine overheating is greatest, especially in hot weather, when: Towing a trailer up steep inclines for prolonged periods at wide open throttle and low engine rpm. Stopping the engine suddenly after high speed driving (so-called "after-boiling" can occur). To avoid overheating, the following rules should be followed: Do not drive for prolonged periods at engine speeds above 4500 rpm if you are towing a trailer in hilly terrain.
