Level control
*
and shock
absorption
Level control and shock absorption are regu-
lated automatically in the car.
With rear level control, the car maintains the
same height at the rear regardless of load.
Level control can also occur even after the car
has been parked.
Shock absorption (Four-C)
On a car equipped with Four-C the shock
absorption is adapted according to the drive
mode selected and the speed of the car.
Shock absorption is normally set for optimum
comfort and is regulated continuously depend-
ing on the road surface, the car's acceleration,
braking and cornering.
During transport
During transport of the car on a ferry, train or
truck, the car must be lashed around the tyres
and not around other parts of the chassis.
Changes in the air suspension may occur dur-
ing transport, which could affect the lashing
negatively.

Recommendations for loading (p. 591)
Economical driving
Drive economically and in a more eco-friendly
way by driving gently and anticipating situa-
tions.
Adapt your driving style and speed to the pre-
vailing situation.
To achieve the longest driving distance possi-
ble and lowest energy consumption possible
with Twin Engine, note the following:
Charge
•
Charge the car regularly from the mains
power circuit. Make it a habit to always
start a journey with fully-charged hybrid
battery.
•
Find out where the charging stations are
located.
•
If possible, select a parking space with a
charging station.
Charge the car from the mains power cir-
cuit as often as possible!
Precondition
•
Precondition the car before driving if pos-
sible using the charging cable connected
to the mains power circuit.
•
Avoid parking the car in a way that the
interior cools down or overheats while
parking. Park the car in an acclimated
garage, for example.
•
During a short drive after preconditioning
of the passenger compartment, switch off
the ventilation fan or air conditioning in a
hot climate, if possible.
•
If preconditioning is not possible when it
is cold outside, use seat heating and steer-
ing wheel heating first of all. Avoid warm-
ing up the whole of the interior which
takes energy from the hybrid battery.

Drive
•
For lowest energy consumption, activate
the
Pure
drive mode.
•
Drive at a steady speed and keep a good
distance to other vehicles and objects in
order to avoid braking. This driving style
results in the lowest energy consumption.
•
Balance the power requirement using the
accelerator pedal. Use the indicator for
available electric motor power in the driver
display in order to avoid starting the inter-
nal combustion engine unnecessarily. The
electric motor is more efficient that the
internal combustion engine, in particular at
low speed.
•
In the event of braking being necessary -
brake gently with the brake pedal, this
recharges the hybrid battery. A regenera-
tive braking function is built into the brake
pedal and can be reinforced with electric
motor braking in gear position
B
.
•
High speed results in increased energy
consumption - the wind resistance increa-
ses with speed.
•
Activate the
Hold
function in the function
view at higher speeds during journeys that
are longer than the range of the electricity.
•
If possible, avoid using the
Charge
func-
tion to charge the hybrid battery. Charging
with the internal combustion engine
increases fuel consumption and involves
increased carbon dioxide emissions.
•
In a cold climate, reduce electrical heating
of windows, mirrors, seats and steering
wheel, if possible.
•
Drive with the correct air pressure in the
tyres and check this regularly - select ECO
tyre pressure for optimum results.
•
Choice of tyres can affect energy con-
sumption - seek advice on suitable tyres
from a dealer.
•
Remove unnecessary items from the car -
the greater the load the higher the con-
sumption.
•
A roof load and ski box increase air resis-
tance, leading to higher consumption -
remove the load carriers when not in use.
•
Avoid driving with open windows.
•
Do not hold the car stationary on a hill
with the accelerator pedal. Use the foot
brake instead.

Factors that affect range when
running on electricity
The car's range for electric operation depends
on several factors. The ability to achieve a
long range varies according to the circum-
stances and conditions under which the car is
being driven.
The certified value for the car's mileage on
electric power should not be interpreted as an
expected range. The certification value is a
comparative value obtained by means of spe-
cial EU drive cycles. The actual range is
dependent on a number of factors.
Factors that affect the range
The driver can influence some factors, but has
no influence over others.
The longest range is achieved under extremely
favourable conditions when all factors have a
positive impact.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Factors the driver cannot influence
There are several external factors that affect
the range in varying degrees:
•
traffic situation
•
short driving distances
•
topography
•
outside temperature and headwind
•
road condition and surface.
The table shows the approximate relationship
between outside temperature and range, both
in a car with deactivated passenger compart-
ment climate control, as well as in a car with
normal passenger compartment climate con-
trol.
A warmer outside temperature has a positive
effect on range to a certain extent.

Hold and Charge function
In some situations, it can be useful to be able
to control the hybrid battery's state of charge
while driving is in progress. This is possible
with the functions
Hold
and
Charge
.
Hold
and
Charge
are available in all drive
modes. The functions are cancelled if
Pure
drive mode is activated.
Function buttons for Hold and Charge
The functions are activated in the centre dis-
play's function view.
Hold
Battery level sustained for
later use
.
The function maintains the
charge in the hybrid battery
for electric drive and saves
available electricity for later
use, e.g. for driving in an urban environment or
through a residential area.
The car works as for normal hybrid operation
with discharged battery where, in addition to
re-using brake-generated energy, for example,
the car starts the internal combustion engine
more often in order to maintain the charge in
the battery.
Charge
Engine charges hybrid
battery
.
The function charges the
hybrid battery with assis-
tance from the internal com-
bustion engine for using
increased electric operation at a later time.

Preparations for a long trip
Before a driving holiday or some other type of
long journey, it is important to check the car's
functions and equipment particularly care-
fully.
Check that
•
the engine is working normally and that
fuel consumption is normal
•
there are no leaks (fuel, oil or other fluid)
•
braking effect on braking works as
intended
•
all lamps are working - adjust headlamp
level if the car is heavily laden
•
the tyres have sufficient tread depth and
pressure. Change to winter tyres when
driving to areas where there is a risk of
snowy or icy road surfaces
•
starter battery charging is good
•
the wiper blades are in good condition
•
a warning triangle and high-visibility vest
are located in the car - legally required in
certain countries

Winter driving
For winter driving it is important to perform
certain checks of the car in order to ensure
that it can be driven safely.
Check the following in particular before the
cold season:
•
The engine coolant must contain 50%
glycol. This mixture protects the engine
against frost down to approx. -35°C
(-31°F). To avoid health risks, different
types of glycol must not be mixed.
•
The fuel tank must be kept filled to pre-
vent condensation.
•
Engine oil viscosity is important. Oils with
lower viscosity (thinner oils) facilitate star-
ting in cold weather and also reduce fuel
consumption while the engine is cold.
Low viscosity oil must not be used for hard
driving or in hot weather.
•
The condition of the starter battery and
charge level must be inspected. Cold
weather places great demands on the
starter battery and its capacity is reduced
by the cold.
•
Use washer fluid with antifreeze to avoid
ice forming in the washer fluid reservoir.

Slippery driving conditions
To achieve optimum roadholding Volvo recom-
mends using winter tyres on all wheels if there
is a risk of snow or ice.
The use of winter tyres is a legal require-
ment in certain countries. Studded tyres
are not permitted in all countries.
Practise driving on slippery surfaces under
controlled conditions to learn how the car
reacts.

Driving in water
Wading means the car being driven through
water, e.g. on a flooded road. Driving in water
must be performed with great caution.
Observe the following to prevent damage to
the car when driving through water:
•
The water level must not be higher than
the floor of the car. If possible, check the
depth at the deepest point before starting
to drive through the water. Extra caution
should be exercised when passing
through flowing water.
•
Do not drive faster than walking pace.
•
Do not stop the car in the water. Drive for-
ward carefully or reverse the car back out
of the water.
•
Remember that waves created by oncom-
ing traffic may rise above the level for the
floor of the car.
•
Avoid driving through salt water (corrosion
risk).
Parts of the car (e.g. engine, gearbox,
driveline or electrical components) may be
damaged when driving through water with
a level higher than the floor of the car.
Damaged caused to a component caused
by submersion, hydrolock or lack of oil is
not covered by the warranty.
In the event of stalling in water, do not try
to restart. Instead, tow the car out of the
water and transported on a low loader to a
workshop. An authorised Volvo workshop
is recommended.
When the water has been passed, depress the
brake pedal lightly and check that full brake
function is achieved. Water and mud for
example can make the brake linings wet
resulting in delayed brake function.
If necessary, clean the contact for the trailer
coupling after driving in water and mud.

Handling of fuel
Do not use fuel with a lower quality than that
recommended by Volvo, as this will nega-
tively affect engine power and fuel consump-
tion.
WARNING
Always avoid inhaling fuel vapour and get-
ting fuel splashes in the eyes.
In the event of fuel in the eyes, remove any
contact lenses and rinse the eyes in plenty
of water for at least 15 minutes and seek
medical attention.
Never swallow fuel. Fuels such as petrol,
bioethanol and mixtures of them and diesel
are highly toxic and could cause permanent
injury or be fatal if swallowed. Seek medi-
cal attention immediately if fuel has been
swallowed.
WARNING
Fuel which spills onto the ground can be
ignited.
Switch off the fuel-driven heater before
starting to refuel.
Never carry an activated mobile phone
when refuelling. The ring signal could
cause spark build-up and ignite petrol
fumes, leading to fire and injury.

Petrol
It is important to use the correct fuel during
refuelling. Petrol is available with different
octane ratings that are adapted for different
types of driving.
Only use petrol from well-known producers.
Never use fuel of dubious quality. The petrol
must fulfil the EN 228 standard.
Identifier for petrol

latest.
These are the identifiers that apply for current
standard fuels in Europe. Petrol with the fol-
lowing identifiers may be used in cars with
petrol engine:
E5 is a petrol with maximum
2.7% oxygen and maximum
5 volume % ethanol.
E10 is a petrol with maximum
3.7% oxygen and maximum
10 volume % ethanol.
•
Fuel that contains up to 10 percent by

Petrol particle filter (p. 475)
•
Petrol particle filter
11
Petrol cars are fitted with particle filters for
more efficient emission control.
Particles in the exhaust gases are collected in
the petrol particle filter during normal driving.
In normal driving conditions, passive regenera-
tion takes place, which leads to the particles
being oxidised and burned away. The filter is
emptied in this way.
If the car is driven at low speed or with repea-
ted cold starts in low outside temperature,
active regeneration may be necessary. Regen-
eration of the particulate filter is automatic and
normally takes 10-20 minutes. Fuel consump-
tion may temporarily increase during regenera-
tion.
Use the parking heater in cold weather - the
engine then reaches normal operating tem-
perature more quickly.
When driving short distances at low
speeds in a petrol car
The capacity of the emissions system is affec-
ted by how the car is driven. Driving varying
distances and at different speeds is important
in order to achieve performance that is as
energy-efficient as possible.
Driving short distances at low speeds (or in
cold climates) frequently, where the engine
does not reach normal operating temperature,
can lead to problems that can eventually
cause a malfunction and trigger a warning
message. If the vehicle is mostly driven in city
traffic, it is important to regularly drive at
higher speeds to allow the emissions system
to regenerate.
•
The car should be driven on A-roads at
speeds in excess of 70 km/h (44 mph) for
at least 20 minutes between each refuel-
ling.

Overloading the starter battery
The electrical functions in the car load the
starter battery to varying degrees. Avoid
using the ignition position
II
when the car is
switched off. Instead, use ignition position
I
-
which uses less power.
Also, be aware of different accessories that
load the electrical system. Do not use func-
tions which use a lot of power when the car is
switched off. Examples of such functions are:
•
ventilation fan
•
headlamps
•
windscreen wiper
•
audio system (high volume).
If the starter battery voltage is low, a message
is shown in the driver display. The energy-sav-
ing function then shuts down certain functions
or reduces certain functions such as the venti-
lation fan and/or audio system.
–
In which case, charge the starter battery
by starting the car and then running it for
at least 15 minutes - starter battery charg-
ing is more effective during driving than
running the engine at idling speed while
stationary.

.
2. Check that the donor battery has a voltage
of 12 V.
3. If the donor battery is installed in another
car - switch off the donor car's engine and
make sure that the two cars do not touch
each other.
4. Connect one of the red jump lead's
clamps to the donor battery's positive ter-
minal (1).
Connect the start cable carefully to avoid
short circuits with other components in the
engine compartment.
5. Open the positive jump-starting point's
cover (2).
6. Connect the red jump lead's other clamp
onto the car's positive jump-starting point
(2).
7. Connect one of the black jump lead's
clamps to the donor battery's negative ter-
minal (3).
8. Connect the black jump lead's other
clamp onto the car's negative jump-star-
ting point (4).
9. Check that the jump lead clamps are
affixed securely so that there are no sparks
during the starting attempt.
10. Start the engine of the "donor car" and
allow it to run a few minutes at a speed
slightly higher than idle approx. 1500 rpm.
11. Start your own car's engine. If the start
attempt fails then extend the charging
time to 10 minutes, and then make a new
start attempt.
When starting the engine in normal condi-
tions the car's electric drive motor is priori-
tised - the petrol engine remains switched
off. This means that after the start knob
has been turned clockwise, the electric
motor has "started" and the car is ready to
move. A started motor is indicated by the
driver display's indicator lamps extinguish-

Do not touch the connections between
cable and car during the starting attempt.
There is a risk of sparks forming.
12. Remove the jump leads in reverse order -
first the black and then the red.
Make sure that none of the black jump
lead's clamps comes into contact with the
car's positive jump-starting point/donor
battery's positive terminal or the clamp
connected to the red jump lead.
WARNING
•
The battery can generate oxyhydrogen
gas, which is highly explosive. A spark
can be formed if a jump lead is con-
nected incorrectly, and this can be
enough for the battery to explode.
•
Do not connect the jump leads to any
fuel system component or any moving
part. Be careful of hot engine parts.
•
The battery contains sulphuric acid,
which can cause serious burns.
•
If sulphuric acid comes into contact
with eyes, skin or clothing, flush with
large quantities of water. If acid
splashes into the eyes - seek medical
attention immediately.
•
Never smoke near the battery.
The car cannot be started if the hybrid bat-
tery is discharged.
