driver profile. When the key is used to unlock the
vehicle/start the engine for the first time, the

Guest

profile will be used.

A driver profile can be selected manually each
time the vehicle is unlocked/started without a
remote key being linked to that profile. When the
vehicle is started, the most recently selected
driver profile will be activated. If the key has previ-
ously been linked to a driver profile, it is not nec-
essary to manually select a profile when that par-
ticular key is used.

Climate control system

The vehicle is equipped with Electronic Climate
Control (ECC) that cools, heats, dehumidifies
and filters the air in the passenger compartment.

4-zone climate system

4-zone system climate zones

The 4-zone climate system makes it possible to
set the left- and right-side temperatures sepa-
rately for the front and rears seats.

All climate system settings are made from the
center display and the buttons in the center con-
sole. Settings for the rear seats can also be
made from the climate system panel on the rear
side of the tunnel console.

Perceived temperature

The climate system regulates passenger com-
partment temperature based on the perceived
temperature, not on the actual one.

The selected passenger compartment tempera-
ture is based on a physical perception relating to
the current ambient temperature, air flow, humid-
ity, sunlight in the passenger compartment, etc.

The system's sunlight sensor monitors the side of
the car where sunlight is entering the passenger
compartment. This means that the actual tem-
perature may differ between the right and left
sides of the compartment, even if the tempera-
ture setting is the same for both sides.

Parking climate (preconditioning)

The climate in the passenger compartment can
be preconditioned and maintained, even when
the vehicle is parked. For full functionality, the
vehicle's charging cable must be connected.

Parking climate/preconditioning and maintaining pas-
senger compartment climate comfort is controlled from
the Parking climate tab in the center display's Climate
view.

CLIMATE

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

Preconditioning

Preconditioning the vehicle before driving can
help reduce wear and reduce energy consump-
tion during a trip.

NOTE

Full preconditioning is only possible when the
vehicle's charging cable is connected.

In other cases, the passenger compartment
can be cooled for 3 minutes in warm weather.
This function is started from the

Parking

climate

tab in the center display's Climate

view.

With the charging cable connected, precondition-
ing can be started immediately or a timer function
can start this procedure at a later time.

This feature utilizes several of the vehicle's sys-
tems:

•

The High Voltage Coolant Heater (HVCH)
warms the hybrid battery and passenger
compartment in cold weather.

•

In warm weather, the ventilation system will
attempt to cool the passenger compartment
to the current ambient temperature.

•

In warm weather, the air conditioning system
will cool the passenger compartment to a
comfortable temperature.

•

The electrically heated steering wheel and
seats can be activated.

•

Heating for the windshield, tailgate window
and door mirrors can be activated.

If preconditioning is used in warm weather, a cer-
tain amount of water may condense under the
vehicle, which is normal.

When preconditioning is used, this system will
attempt to establish a comfortable temperature in
the passenger compartment but not necessarily
the temperature currently set in the climate
system.

Maintaining a comfortable passenger
compartment climate

The climate in the passenger compartment can
be maintained even when the vehicle is parked
and the engine is turned off (e.g., if anyone
intends to remain in the vehicle).

This function can only be direct-started.

This function utilizes several of the vehicle's sys-
tems:

•

Residual heat from the engine is used help
keep the passenger compartment warm in
cool temperatures.

•

In warm weather, the ventilation system will
attempt to cool the passenger compartment
to the current ambient temperature.

This function will not be activated if the vehicle is
locked from the outside in order to avoid using

residual engine heat unnecessarily. This function
is primarily intended for use when the engine is
not running but someone remains in the vehicle.

Air quality

The materials used in the passenger compart-
ment have been selected and designed to be
pleasant and comfortable, even for people with
asthma or other types of allergies.

Materials in the passenger
compartment

The materials used have been developed to help
minimize the amount of dust and make the cabin
easier to keep clean.

All floor mats (including the cargo compartment)
can be easily removed for cleaning.

Only use cleaning agents and car care products
recommended by Volvo. Clean regularly and fol-
low the instructions included with the product.

Air filtering systems

In addition to the passenger compartment filter,
the Clean Zone Interior Package

* and the Interior

Air Quality System

* contribute to a cleaner pas-

senger compartment environment.

Clean Zone

The Clean Zone function monitors the conditions
that affect good passenger compartment air
quality.

The indicator is shown in center display's Cli-
mate view.
The indicator is shown in the climate bar
when the Climate view is not open.

If the air quality conditions are not met, the text

Clean Zone

will be white. When the conditions

are met, the text will change to blue.

The conditions monitored are:

•

All side windows, doors, tailgate and panor-
amic roof

* are closed

•

The Interior Air Quality System

* is activated

•

The air conditioning is activated

•

Recirculation is deactivated

NOTE

Please be aware that the Clean Zone function
does not indicate that the air quality in the
passenger is good, only that the conditions
for good air quality have been met.

Clean Zone Interior Package

(CZIP)

The Clean Zone Interior Package includes a
number of features that help further reduce aller-
genic substances in the passenger compart-
ment.

CZIP includes the following:

•

An enhanced blower function that starts the
blower when the vehicle is unlocked with the
remote key to fill the passenger compart-
ment with fresh air. This function starts auto-
matically when required and shuts off auto-
matically after a short period or if one the
doors is opened. The time for which the
blower operates decreases gradually due to
reduced need until the vehicle is four years
old.

•

The Interior Air Quality System (IAQS).

Interior Air Quality System (IAQS)

The Interior Air Quality System uses a multifilter
and an air quality sensor to remove gases, parti-
cles and other contaminants from the air enter-
ing the passenger compartment.

The IAQS air quality sensor monitors increased
levels of contaminants in the outside air and if
contaminants are detected, the air intake closes
and the air inside the passenger compartment is
recirculated, i.e., no outside air enters the vehicle.
The filter also cleans recirculated passenger
compartment air.

NOTE

•

The air quality sensor should always be
engaged in order to obtain the best air in
the passenger compartment.

•

Recirculation is limited in cold weather to
avoid fogging.

•

If the insides of the windows start fog-
ging, disengage the air quality sensor.
Use the defroster function to increase
airflow to the front, side, and rear win-
dows.

Activating/deactivating IAQS

To change the setting for IAQS activation/deacti-
vation:

1. In the center display's Settings view, go to

Climate

2. Activate/deactivate IAQS by selecting/dese-

lecting the
