Volvo S60 (2018 year). Instruction — part 8

Tunnel console – 12-volt sockets

The electrical sockets can be used for 12-volt
accessories such as cell phone chargers and
coolers. For the socket to supply current, the
ignition must be in at least mode

I (p. 74). The

sockets are located between the cup holders in
the tunnel console and on the rear side of the
tunnel console (p. 136) for rear seat passen-
gers.

12-volt socket in the front tunnel console

12-volt socket in the rear center console

The maximum current consumption is 10A
(120W) if only one of the 12-volt sockets in the
passenger compartment is in use. If both the
front and rear sockets are used at the same time,
the maximum current consumption per socket is
7.5A (90W).

The auxiliary sockets can also be used to power a
cigarette lighter. Accessory cigarette lighters and
ashtrays can be purchased from your Volvo
retailer.

WARNING

Always keep the sockets covered when not in
use.

LOADING AND STORAGE

138

Loading – general

The load carrying capacity of your vehicle is
determined by factors such as the number of
passengers, the amount of cargo, the weight of
any accessories that may be installed, etc.

To increase loading space, the rear seat back-
rests can be folded down, see Rear seats – fold-
ing backrest (p. 81).

When loading the trunk, keep the following in
mind:

The trunk lid can be unlocked an pop-
ped open slightly via the button located
on the lighting panel, see Locking/

unlocking – trunk (p. 160).

•

Load objects in the trunk against the back-
rest whenever possible.

•

Unstable loads can be secured to the load
anchoring eyelets with straps or web lash-
ings to help keep them from shifting.

•

Stop the engine and apply the parking brake
when loading or unloading long objects. The
gear selector can be knocked out of position
by long loads, which could set the vehicle in
motion.

WARNING

•

Stop the engine, put the gear selector in
P, and apply the parking brake when
loading or unloading long objects.

•

The vehicle's driving characteristics may
change depending on the weight and dis-
tribution of the load.

•

A 44-pound (20 kg) object produces a
force of 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg) in a
head-on collision at 30 mph (50 km/h).

•

The rear seat should not be loaded to a
level higher than 2 in. (5 cm) below the
upper edge of the rear side windows.
Objects placed higher than this level
could impede the function of the Volvo
Inflatable Curtain.

Release the hatch in the rear seat backrest
by sliding the catch up while folding the
hatch forward.

Return the backrest to the upright position
with the hatch open.

Use the seat belt to prevent the load from mov-
ing.

WARNING

•

Always secure the load to help prevent it
from moving in the event of sudden brak-
ing.

•

Switch off the engine, apply the parking
brake and put the gear selector in P
when loading and unloading the vehicle.

The cover on the rear seat armrest/child seat has
no hinge. The cover must be removed before the
ski hatch is used.

Removal:

–

Open the cover 30 degrees and lift straight
up.

Installation:

–

Insert the cover in the grooves behind the
upholstery and close the cover.

Loading – roof load carriers

Using load carriers

Load carriers are available as Volvo accessories.
Observe the following points when in use:

•

To avoid damaging your vehicle and to
achieve maximum safety when driving, we
recommend using the load carriers that Volvo
has developed especially for your vehicle.

•

Volvo-approved removable roof racks are
designed to carry the maximum allowable
roof load for this vehicle: 220 lbs (100 kg).
For non-Volvo roof racks, check the manu-
facturer's weight limits for the rack.

•

Never exceed the rack manufacturer's weigh
limits and never exceed the maximum rated
roof load of 220 lbs (100 kg).

•

Avoid single-point loads. Distribute loads
evenly.

•

Place heavier cargo at the bottom of the
load.

•

Secure the cargo correctly with appropriate
tie-down equipment.

•

Check periodically that the load carriers and
load are properly secured.

•

Remember that the vehicle's center of gravity
and handling change when you carry a load
on the roof.

LOADING AND STORAGE

140

•

The vehicle's wind resistance and fuel con-
sumption will increase with the size of the
load.

•

Drive smoothly. Avoid rapid starts, fast cor-
nering and hard braking.

Load anchoring eyelets

The load anchoring eyelets on both sides of the
vehicle are used to fasten straps, etc., to help
anchor items in the trunk.

WARNING

The two upper hooks shown in the illustration
are for holding grocery bags only. They are

not intended for anchoring heavy objects.

WARNING

•

Cover sharp edges on long loads to help
prevent injury to occupants. Secure the
load to help prevent shifting during sud-
den stops.

•

Always secure large and heavy objects
with a seat belt or cargo retaining straps.

•

Always secure the load to help prevent it
from moving in the event of sudden stops.

•

Switch off the engine, apply the parking
brake and put the gear selector in P
when loading and unloading the vehicle.

Remote key and key blade

Two remote keys are provided with your vehicle.
They enable you to unlock the doors and trunk,
and also function as ignition keys to start the
vehicle or operate electrical components. The
remote keys contain detachable metal key
blades for manually locking or unlocking the driv-
er's door and the glove compartment. The visible
ends of these key blades are unique to make it
easier to identify "your" remote key. Up to six
remotes can be programmed for use on the
same vehicle.

WARNING

Never leave the remote key in the ignition slot
if children are to remain in the vehicle.

For more information on the various ignition
modes, see Ignition modes (p. 74).

Remote key – loss

If either of the remote keys (p. 144) is lost, the
other should be taken with the vehicle to a Volvo
retailer. As an anti-theft measure, the code of the
lost remote key must be erased from the system.

For a description of the menu system, see My Car
– introduction (p. 71).

Additional or duplicate remote control keys
can be obtained from any authorized Volvo
retailer.

You can also obtain additional or duplicate
remote control keys from certain independent
repair facilities and locksmiths that are quali-
fied to make remote control keys. Each key
must be programmed to work with your vehi-
cle.

Key memory

The memory in the remote key makes it possible
to store certain personal settings.

The position of the side door mirrors, power driv-
er's seat

* and the selected instrument panel

theme

are stored in the remote keys when the

vehicle is locked. The next time the driver's door
is unlocked with the same remote key and the
door is opened within 2 minutes, the power driv-
er's seat and side door mirrors will automatically
move to the position that they were in when the
doors were most recently locked with the same
remote key. If the seat/mirrors have not been
readjusted since the vehicle was locked, they will
already be in the position stored in that particular
remote key and will not move. For more informa-
tion on this feature, see Front seats – power seat
(p. 76).

This feature can be activated or deactivated in

Immobilizer (start inhibitor)

The immobilizer is a start inhibitor that helps pre-
vent unauthorized persons from starting the
engine.

Each of the keys supplied with your vehicle con-
tains a coded transponder. The code in the key
is transmitted to an antenna in the ignition slot
where it is compared to the code stored in the
start inhibitor module. The vehicle will start only
with a properly coded key. If you misplace a key,
take the other keys to a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician for reprogramming as
an anti-theft measure. The following messages
(which may appear in the instrument panel dis-
play) are related to the immobilizer:
