Remember that use of the electrical socket
with the engine switched off entails a risk
of discharging the starter battery, which
can limit functionality.

Accessories that are connected to the elec-
trical sockets may be activated even when
the car's electrical system is disconnected
or if preconditioning is used. For this rea-
son, disconnect the connectors when they
are not in use in order to avoid the starter
battery being discharged.

WARNING

•

Do not use accessories with large or
heavy connectors - they can damage
the socket or come loose when driving.

•

Do not use accessories that can cause
interference to the car's radio receiver
or electrical system for example.

•

Position the accessory so that it is not
at risk of injuring the driver or passen-
gers in the event of heavy braking or
collision.

•

Keep an eye on connected accessories
as they can generate heat that can
burn passengers or the interior.

Using 12 V sockets

1. Remove the blanking plug (tunnel con-

sole) or fold down the cover (cargo area)
in front of the socket and plug in the
accessory's connector.

2. Unplug the accessory's connector and

refit the blanking plug (tunnel console) or
fold up the cover (cargo area) when the
socket is not in use or if the socket is left
unattended.

IMPORTANT

Maximum socket output is 120 W (10 A)
per socket.

accessories to come into contact with
water or other liquids. Do not touch or
use the socket if it appears to be dam-
aged 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 override the sock-
et's safety features.

•

The socket is equipped with a protec-
tive cover, ensure that nothing pro-
trudes in or damages the socket pre-
venting the cover from doing its job.
Do not leave children in the car unsu-
pervised when the socket is active.

Cargo area

Inside the car's cargo area, it is possible to
secure the load so that it stays in place while
driving.

With folding

*

backrests in the rear seat, the

cargo area can be made more spacious. There
are load retaining eyelets and bag holders
available for holding the load securely in place.

If the car is equipped with a spare wheel then
this is attached on the cargo area floor. The
car's towing eye and puncture repair kit are
stored under the cargo area floor.

Recommendations for loading

There are a number of things that are impor-
tant to bear in mind when loading the car.

Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The
total of the weight of the passengers and all
accessories reduces the car's payload by a
corresponding weight.

WARNING

The car’s driving properties change

depending on the weight and positioning

of the load.

Loading in the cargo area

Good things to remember when loading:

•

Position the load firmly against the rear
seat's backrest.

•

Heavy objects should be placed as low as
possible. Avoid placing heavy loads on
lowered backrests.

•

Cover sharp edges with something soft to
avoid damaging the upholstery.

•

Secure all loads to the load retaining eye-
lets with straps or web lashings.

WARNING

A loose object weighing 20 kg (44 pounds)

can, in a frontal collision at a speed of

50 km/h (30 mph) carry the impact of an

item weighing 1000 kg (2200 pounds).

||

LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT

* Option/accessory.

WARNING

Leave 10 cm (4 inches) space between the

load and the side windows if the car is loa-

ded to above the top edge of the door win-

dows. Otherwise, the intended protection

of the inflatable curtain, which is concealed

in the headlining, may be compromised.

WARNING

Always secure the load. During heavy brak-

ing the load may otherwise shift, causing

injury to the car's occupants.
Cover sharp edges and sharp corners with

something soft.
Switch off the engine and apply the park-

ing brake when loading/unloading long

items. Otherwise you may accidentally

knock the gear lever or gear selector with

the load into a drive position - and the car

could then move off.

Increasing the space in the cargo area

To expand the cargo area and simplify loading,
the rear seat's backrest can be lowered

*

. Note

that objects must not prevent the function of
the WHIPS system for the front seats if any of
the rear seat's backrests is folded down.

A through-load hatch

*

in the rear seat can be

folded down for carrying long and narrow
loads.

Roof load and loading on load

carriers

For loading on the car's roof, the load carriers
that Volvo have developed are recommended.

This is in order to avoid damage to the car and
in order to achieve the maximum possible
safety during a journey. Volvo's load carriers
are available for purchase at authorised Volvo
retailers.

Carefully follow the installation instructions
supplied with the carriers.

•

Distribute the load evenly over the load
carriers. Put the heaviest objects at the
bottom.

•

Check periodically that the load carriers
and load are properly secured. Lash the
load securely with retaining straps.

•

If the load is longer than the car at the
front, e.g. a canoe or kayak, fit the towing
eye to its front socket and attach the bun-
gee to this.

•

The size of the area exposed to the wind,
and therefore fuel consumption, increase
with the size of the load.

•

Drive gently. Avoid quick acceleration,
heavy braking and hard cornering.

Volvo service programme

To keep the car as safe and reliable as possi-
ble, follow the Volvo service programme as
specified in the Service and Warranty Book-
let.

Volvo recommends engaging an authorised
Volvo workshop to perform the service and
maintenance work. Volvo workshops have the
personnel, special tools and service literature
that can provide the highest quality of service.

IMPORTANT

For the Volvo warranty to apply, check and
follow the instructions in the Service and
Warranty Booklet.

Service and repair

Service the car regularly. Follow Volvo's rec-
ommended service intervals.

If inspection and repair are required then only
an authorised Volvo workshop may carry out
the work.

WARNING

Do not carry out any repairs of your own on

this vehicle. Electrical cables and/or com-

ponents that have detached must only be

rectified by an authorised workshop - an

authorised Volvo workshop is recom-

mended.

Data transfer between car and

workshop via Wi-Fi

Volvo's workshops have a specific Wi-Fi net-
work for data transfer between your car and
the workshop. Your workshop visit will be
simpler and more efficient when the transfer
of diagnostic information and software can
take place via the workshop's network.

During a workshop visit, your service techni-
cian may want to connect your car to the
workshop's network via Wi-Fi to perform
fault-tracing and software download. For this
type of communication, the car only connects
to a workshop's network. It is not possible to
connect the car to another Wi-Fi network,
such as at home, in the same way as to a
workshop's network.

Connection with the remote control
key

Connection is normally handled by the service
technician who then uses the remote control
key buttons. That's why it's important to take
a key with buttons with you for the workshop
visit. Press three times on the lock button on
the remote control key to connect the car to
the workshop's network via Wi-Fi.

When the car is connected to a Wi-Fi net-
work, the

symbol appears in the centre

display.
