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.

Economical driving

A more economical driving style can contrib-
ute to lower fuel consumption.

Before driving

If possible, precondition the car before
driving.

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 starter battery.

Avoid warming up the car using idling.

Choice of tyres and tyre pressure can
affect energy consumption - seek advice
on suitable tyres from an authorised Volvo
dealer.

Remove unnecessary items from the car -
the greater the load the higher the con-
sumption.

While driving

Activate drive mode

Eco

.

Use gear position

D

as often as possible

18

.

When driving with manual gear changing,
drive in the highest gear possible. Use the
gear shift indicator.

Drive at a steady speed and keep a good
distance to other vehicles and objects in

order to avoid braking, use engine braking
if possible.

High speed results in increased energy
consumption since the wind resistance
increases with speed.

In a cold climate, reduce electrical heating
of windows, mirrors, seats and steering
wheel, if possible.

Avoid driving with open windows.

Do not hold the car stationary on a hill
with the accelerator pedal. Instead, acti-
vate the function for automatic braking
when stationary.

Use the trip computer to see instantane-
ous fuel consumption.

WARNING

Never switch off the engine while moving,

such as downhill, this deactivates impor-

tant systems such as the power steering

and brake servo.

After driving

If possible, park in an acclimated garage.

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.

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.

See the separate section for engine oil recom-
mendations.

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.

NOTE

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.

The car can be driven through water to a maxi-
mum depth of 25 cm (9 inches) at no more
than walking speed. Extra caution should be
exercised when passing through flowing
water.

During driving in water, maintain a low speed
and do not stop the car. 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 contacts for the
electric heater and trailer coupling after
driving in water and mud.

Do not let the car stand with water over
the sills for any long period of time - this
could cause electrical malfunctions.

IMPORTANT

Engine damage can occur if water
enters the air filter.

If water enters the transmission, it
reduces the lubricating ability of the oil,
which shortens the service life of rela-
ted systems.

Damage to any component, engine,
transmission, turbocharger, differential
or its internal components caused by
flooding, hydrostatic locking or oil
shortage, is not covered by the war-
ranty.

In the event of the engine stalling in
water, do not try restart - tow the car
from the water to a workshop - an
authorised Volvo workshop is recom-
mended. Risk of engine breakdown.

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.

IMPORTANT

Mixtures of various fuel types or use of
fuels which are not recommended will
invalidate Volvo's guarantees and any sup-
plementary service agreements; this is
applicable to all engines.

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.

IMPORTANT

Fuel that contains up to 10 percent by
volume ethanol is permitted.

EN 228 E10 petrol (max 10 percent by
volume ethanol) is approved for use.

Ethanol higher than E10
(max. 10 percent by volume ethanol) is
not permitted, e.g. E85 is not permit-
ted.

Octane rating

RON 95 can be used for normal driving.

RON 98 is recommended for good power
and low fuel consumption.

An octane rating lower than RON 95 must
not be used.

When driving in temperatures above +38 °C
(100 °F), fuel with the highest octane rating is
recommended for adapted performance and
fuel economy.

IMPORTANT

Petrol particle filter

21

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.

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.

Diesel

It is important to use the correct fuel during
refuelling. Diesel is available in different quali-
ties adapted to different conditions.

Only use diesel fuel from well-known produc-
ers. Never use fuel of dubious quality. Diesel
fuel must fulfil the EN 590 or SS 155435
standard. Paraffinic diesel (HVO, XTL) accord-
ing to the EN 15940 standard can be used.
Diesel engines are sensitive to contaminants
in the fuel, such as excessively high volumes
of sulphur and metals.

Identifier

Decal on the inside of the fuel filler flap.

The identifier in accordance with the CEN
standard EN16942 is located on the inside of
the fuel filler flap, and will be on corresponding

fuel pumps and their nozzles at filling stations
throughout Europe by 12 October 2018 at the
latest.

This is the identifier that applies for current
standard fuel in Europe. Diesel with the fol-
lowing identifiers may be used in cars with
diesel engine:

B7 is

diesel

with maximum

7 volume % fatty acid methyl
ester (FAME).

At low temperatures (lower than 0 °C (32 °F))
a paraffin precipitate may form in the diesel
fuel, which may lead to starting problems. The
fuel qualities that are sold must be adapted for
season and climate zone, but for extreme
weather conditions, old fuel or moving
between climate zones, paraffin precipitate
may occur.

The risk of condensation in the fuel tank is
reduced if the tank is kept well filled.

Diesel particulate filter

Diesel cars are fitted with particle filters for
more efficient emission control.

Particles in the exhaust gases are collected in
the diesel particle filter during normal driving.
When these conditions have been met, regen-
eration starts to burn off the particles and
empty the filter. To start regeneration, the
engine must have reached normal operating
temperature. Regeneration of the particulate
filter is automatic and normally takes
10-20 minutes.

NOTE

The following may arise during regenera-
tion:

a smaller reduction of engine power
may be noticed temporarily

fuel consumption may increase tempo-
rarily

a smell of burning may arise.

Use the parking heater

*

in cold weather - the

engine then reaches normal operating tem-
perature more quickly.

IMPORTANT

If the filter is completely filled with parti-
cles, it may be difficult to start the engine
and the filter is non-functional. Then there
is a risk that the filter will need to be
replaced.

When driving short distances at low
speeds in a diesel 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 60 km/h (38 mph) for
at least 20 minutes between each refuel-
ling.

Emission control with AdBlue

®

24

AdBlue is an additive used in the SCR

25

sys-

tem to reduce emissions of noxious sub-
stances from a diesel engine.

In the SCR system, the AdBlue and the nitrous
oxide exhaust gas substance are converted to
nitrogen and water vapour, which significantly
reduces the emissions of harmful nitrous
oxides.

AdBlue

AdBlue is a colourless liquid consisting of
32.5% urea

26

in deionised water and is manu-

factured in accordance with the ISO 22241
standard. It is specially developed for SCR
cleaning technology for diesel engines.

AdBlue has its own tank in the car which is
topped up via a separate filler pipe behind the
fuel filler flap. Consumption depends on driv-
ing style, outside temperature and the operat-
ing temperature of the system.

Conditions for driving with AdBlue

There must always be AdBlue of the correct
quality in the AdBlue tank before the car can
be started. The SCR system is very sensitive
to contaminants.

The emission control system continuously
monitors the tank level, quality and dosage of

AdBlue. If something is wrong, a message is
shown in the driver display.

IMPORTANT

AdBlue is required for the function of the
SCR system and legal emissions compli-
ance. It is illegal to modify or manipulate
the AdBlue supply system in any way so
that no AdBlue reagent is consumed when
it is required for legal exhaust emissions
compliance. Any such tampering may be a
criminal offence which may lead to legal
prosecution actions.

It is not permitted to operate the car with
an empty AdBlue tank, since it will no
longer be compliant with the legal require-
ments for exhaust emissions. Therefore,
the car is equipped with a warning system
to inform when AdBlue refilling is required.
When the fill level in the AdBlue tank is
getting low, warnings are displayed to
inform that AdBlue refilling is required.

27

AdBlue consists primarily of water (approx.
67.5% water and 32.5% urea). The fluid is
not flammable but should be handled with
care since it can irritate the eyes and skin.

Points to remember when handling

Avoid inhaling vapour as well as contact with
skin and eyes. Preferably use gloves that pre-
vent irritation to sensitive skin when handling
the fluid.

WARNING

Action for first aid:

For inhalation - get fresh air.

For skin contact - wash the skin with
soap and water.

For contact with the eyes - rinse imme-
diately with a lot of water.

For ingestion - rinse the mouth thor-
oughly. Do not induce vomiting.

Seek medical attention if the discomfort

remains or if a large quantity has been

ingested.

Action in the event of a spill

AdBlue spilled on the ground, the car or pain-
ted surfaces must be rinsed thoroughly with
water. Avoid releasing into the drainage sys-
tem.

Storage

AdBlue must be stored in tightly sealing origi-
nal packaging at a temperature above -11 °C
