Introduction

Important information

Reading the Owner's Manual
Introduction
A good way of getting to know your new car
is to read the owner's manual, ideally before
your first journey. This will give you the op-
portunity to familiarise yourself with new
functions, to see how best to handle the car
in different situations, and to make the best
use of all the car's features. Please pay at-
tention to the safety instructions contained in
the manual.
The equipment described in the owner's
manual is not present in all models. In addi-
tion to standard equipment, this manual also
describes options (factory fitted equipment)
and certain accessories (extra equipment).
Volvo cars are adapted for the varying re-
quirements of different markets, as well as
for national or local legal requirements and
regulations.
The specifications, design features and illus-
trations in this owner's manual are not bind-
ing. We reserve the right to make modifica-
tions without prior notice.

Footnote
There is footnote information in the Owner's
Manual that is located at the bottom of the
page or directly adjacent to a table. This in-
formation is an addition to the text that it re-
fers to via a number.
Message texts
There are displays in the car that show text
messages. These text messages are high-
lighted in the Owner's Manual by means of
the text being slightly larger and printed in
grey. Example DIM text.
Procedure lists
Procedures where action must be taken in a
certain sequence are numbered in the Own-
er's Manual.
When there is a series of illustrations for
step-by-step instructions each step is
numbered in the same way as the corre-
sponding illustration.
There are numbered and unnumbered
arrows which are used to illustrate a
movement or to point out a component.
If there is no series of illustrations for step-
by-step instructions then the different steps
are numbered with normal numbers.
Position lists
Red circles containing a number are used
in overview images where different com-
ponents are pointed out. The number
recurs in the position list featured in
connection with the illustration that de-
scribes the item.
