Checking and filling with AdBlue
®
Check the AdBlue level regularly and top up if
the message for low AdBlue level is shown in
the driver display.
The AdBlue consumption is dependent on
driving style, if the AdBlue tank is allowed to
drain completely then it will no longer be pos-
sible to start the car.
Never run the AdBlue tank dry. Fill the tank
in good time before it is empty.
If the tank is run dry, it will not be possible
to start the engine after it is switched off –
not the regular way or using aids.
The only way to be able to restart after
driving the tank empty is to refill AdBlue of
specified quality, with the minimum being
the quantity shown in the driver display.
Checking AdBlue level
1.
Open the
Car Status
app in the app view.
2.

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.

Using jump starting with another
battery
If the starter battery is discharged then the
car can be started with current from another
battery.
Attachment points for the jump leads. The appear-
ance in the engine compartment may vary depending
on car model and equipment level.
When jump starting the car, the following
steps are recommended to avoid short circuits
or other damage:
1. Set the car's electrical system in ignition
position
0
.
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 the engine in the car with the dis-
charged battery.
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
High voltage can be dangerous in the event
of incorrect intervention. Do not touch any-
thing on the batteries that is not clearly
described in the owner's manual.
•
48 V support battery must never be
used for jump-starting.
•
External electrical equipment must not,
under any circumstances, be con-
nected to the 48 V battery.
•
The 48 V battery may only be serviced
and replaced by a workshop – an
authorised Volvo workshop is recom-
mended.
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.

If the starter battery has been discharged
so much that the car has no normal electri-
cal functions and the engine is then jump-
started with an external battery or a battery
charger, the Start/stop function may con-
tinue to be activated. If the Start/stop
function then auto-stops the engine shortly
afterwards, there is a great risk that engine
auto-start will fail due to insufficient bat-
tery capacity, because the battery has not
had the time to recharge.
If the car has been jump-started, or if there
is insufficient time to charge the battery
with a battery charger, the Start/stop func-
tion is temporarily deactivated until the
battery has been recharged by the car. In
an outside temperature of approx. +15 °C
(approx. 60 °F), the battery needs to be
charged for at least 1 hour by the car. In a
lower outside temperature, the charging
time may increase to 3–4 hours. The rec-
ommendation is to charge the battery
using an external battery charger.

Towbar
*
The car can be equipped with a towbar that
makes it possible to tow e.g. a trailer behind
the car.
There may be different towbar variants availa-
ble for the car. Contact a Volvo dealer for more
information.
When the engine is switched off, the con-
stant battery voltage to the trailer connec-
tor can be switched off automatically so as
not to drain the starter battery.
The towball needs regular cleaning and
lubrication with grease in order to prevent
wear.
When a hitch with a vibration damper is
used, the towball must not be lubricated.
This also applies when fitting a bicycle rack
that is clamped in around the towball.
If the car is equipped with a towbar, there
is no rear mounting for a towing eye.

Driving with a trailer (p. 487)
•
Driving with a trailer
When driving with a trailer, there are a num-
ber of points that are important to think about
regarding the towbar, the trailer and how the
load is positioned in the trailer.
Payload depends on the car's kerb weight. The
total of the weight of the passengers and all
accessories, e.g. towbar, reduces the car's
payload by a corresponding weight.
The car is supplied with the necessary equip-
ment for towing a trailer.
•
The car's towbar must be of an approved
type.
•
Distribute the load on the trailer so that
the weight on the towbar complies with
the specified maximum towball load. Tow-
ball load is calculated as part of the car's
payload.
•
Increase the tyre pressure to the recom-
mended pressure for a full load.
•
The engine is loaded more heavily than
usual when driving with a trailer.
•
Do not tow a heavy trailer when the car is
brand new. Wait until it has been driven at
least 1000 km (620 miles).
•
The brakes are loaded much more than
usual on long and steep downhill slopes.
Downshift to a lower gear when shifting
manually and adjust your speed.
•
Follow the regulations in force for the per-
mitted speeds and weights.
•
Maintain a low speed when driving with a
trailer up long, steep ascents.
•
The maximum indicated trailer weight only
applies to heights up to 1000 metres
above sea level (3280 ft). At higher eleva-
tions, the engine output and the vehicle's
climbing ability are reduced due to the
reduced air density, and the maximum
trailer load must therefore be reduced. The
weight of the car and trailer must be
decreased by 10% for each additional
1000 m (3280 ft) or part thereof.
•
Avoid driving with a trailer on inclines of
more than 12%.
Extreme weather conditions, driving with a
trailer or driving at high altitudes, in combi-
nation with poorer fuel quality than recom-
mended, are factors that considerably
increase the car's fuel consumption.
Trailer connector
An adapter is required if the car's towbar has a
13 pin connector and the trailer has a 7 pin
connector. Use an adapter approved by Volvo.
Make sure the cable does not drag on the
ground.

STARTING AND DRIVING
* Option/accessory.
488
When the engine is switched off, the con-
stant battery voltage to the trailer connec-
tor can be switched off automatically so as
not to drain the starter battery.
Trailer weights
WARNING
Follow the stated recommendations for
trailer weights. Otherwise, the car and
trailer may be difficult to control in the
event of sudden movement and braking.
The stated maximum permitted trailer
weights are those permitted by Volvo.
National vehicle regulations can further
limit trailer weights and speeds. Towbars
can be certified for higher towing weights
than the car can actually tow.
Level control
*
The car's system for level control endeavours
to maintain a constant height regardless of
load (up to the maximum permissible weight).
When the car is stationary the rear of the car
lowers slightly, which is normal.
When driving in hilly terrain and hot
climates
Under certain circumstances, there may be a
risk of overheating when towing a trailer. If the
engine and drive system overheats, a warning
symbol comes on in the driver display and a
message is displayed.
The following applies for cars with automatic
gearbox:
The automatic gearbox adapts the gears
depending on load and engine speed.
Steep inclines
Do not lock the automatic gearbox in a higher
gear than the engine "can cope with" - it is not
always a good idea to drive at a high gear with
low engine speed.
Parking on a hill
1. Depress the brake pedal fully.
2. Activate the parking brake.
3. Select gear position
P

Trailer stability assist
*
The function of trailer stability assist (TSA
31
),
which is included in the stability system
ESC
32
, is to stabilise cars towing trailers in
situations where they begin snaking. The
function is available with towbar installation,
contact a Volvo dealer for more information.
Reasons for snaking
The snaking phenomenon can occur with any
car/trailer combination. Snaking normally
occurs at high speeds. However, there is a risk
of it occurring at lower speeds if the trailer is
overloaded or the load is improperly distrib-
uted, e.g. too far back.
In order for snaking to occur, there must be a
triggering factor, e.g.:
•
Car with trailer subjected to a sudden and
powerful side wind.
•
Car with trailer drives on an uneven road
surface or in a pothole.
•
Sweeping steering wheel movements.
If snaking has started, it could be difficult or
even impossible to suppress. This makes the
car/trailer combination difficult to control and
there is a risk that you could, for example, end
up in the wrong lane or leave the carriageway.
Trailer stability assist function
The trailer stability assist function continually
monitors the car's movements, particularly lat-
eral movements. If snaking is detected, the
front wheels are individually braked. This
serves to stabilise the car/trailer combination.
This is often enough to help the driver regain
control of the car.
If snaking is not eliminated the first time that
trailer stability assist intervenes, the car/trailer
combination is braked with all wheels and
engine power is reduced. Once snaking has
been gradually suppressed and the car/trailer
combination is stable once again, the system
stops regulating and the driver once again has
full control of the car.
The stability function is deactivated if the
driver chooses to activate
ESC Sport
Mode
via the menu system in the centre
display.
Trailer stability assist may fail to intervene if
the driver uses severe steering wheel move-
ments to try to rectify the snaking because in
such a situation the system cannot determine
whether it is the trailer or the driver causing
the snaking.
When Trailer Stability Assist
(TSA) is operating, the ESC
symbol flashes in the driver
display.
Retrofitting a towbar requires an update of
the car's software, contact a Volvo dealer.

Towbar-mounted bicycle rack
*
When using a bicycle rack, the bicycle racks
that Volvo has 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 bicycle racks
are available for purchase at authorised Volvo
dealers.
Carefully follow the instructions enclosed with
the bicycle rack.
•
Bicycle rack including load must weigh a
maximum of 75 kg (165 pounds).
•
The bicycle rack may be designed for a
maximum of three bicycles.
WARNING
Incorrect use of the bicycle rack may cause
damage to the towbar and car.
The bicycle rack can loosen from the tow-
bar if it
•
is incorrectly fitted on the towball
•
is overloaded, see the bicycle rack's
instructions for maximum load weight
•
is used for carrying something other
than bicycles.
The car's driving characteristics are affected
when a bicycle rack is fitted on the towbar.
For example due to:
•
increased weight
•
reduced acceleration capacity
•
reduced ground clearance
•
changed braking capacity.
Recommendations for loading
bicycles on the bicycle rack
The larger the distance between the load's
centre of gravity and the towball, the greater
the load on the towbar.
Load according to the following recommenda-
tions:
•
Fit the heaviest bicycle furthest in, closest
to the car.
•
Keep the load symmetrical and as close to
the centre of the car as possible e.g. by
loading the bicycles facing alternately if
several bicycles are loaded.
•
Remove loose objects from the bicycle for
transportation, e.g. bicycle basket, battery,
child seat. Partly to reduce the load on the
towbar and bicycle rack, and partly to
reduce the wind resistance, which affects
fuel consumption.
•
Do not use protective covers on the bicy-
cles. This may affect manoeuvrability,
impair visibility and increase fuel con-
sumption. It may also lead to an increased
load on the towbar.
