Preconditioning

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

Preconditioning can be started immediately or
started at a preset time using a timer.

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

•

In cold weather, the parking heater heats the
passenger compartment to a comfortable
temperature.

•

In warm weather, air conditioning cools the
passenger compartment to a comfortable
temperature.

•

The electrically heated steering wheel* and
seats* can be activated.

•

Heating for the windshield, rear window and
door mirrors are automatically activated as
needed.

During preconditioning in a hot climate, conden-
sation from the air conditions may drip under the
vehicle. This is normal.

NOTE

Preconditioning is only available when the car
is connected to an electrical outlet. A charg-
ing post that is not always active, for example
because of a timer, can cause loss of function
for preconditioning.

If the car is not connected to an electrical
socket it is still possible in a warm climate to
achieve brief cooling of the passenger com-
partment by direct starting preconditioning.

NOTE

During preconditioning of the passenger
compartment, the vehicle works to reach a
comfortable temperature and not the tem-
perature set in the climate system.

ditioned using the Engine Remote Start (ERS)

function using the Volvo On Call* app.

Climate comfort retaining function

The climate in the passenger compartment can
be maintained when the vehicle is parked, e.g. if
the engine is turned off but the driver or passen-
gers remain in the vehicle.

This function can only be direct-started.

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

•

Residual heat from the engine is used to
help heat the passenger compartment to a
comfortable temperature.

•

In warm weather, the ventilation system cools
the passenger compartment by blowing air in
from outside.

NOTE

Climate comfort maintenance will be deacti-
vated if the vehicle is locked from the outside
in order to avoid using residual engine heat
unnecessarily. This function is intended to be
used to maintain climate comfort when the
driver or a passenger remains in the vehicle
after the engine is turned off.

Heater

The heater helps the engine and passenger
compartment reach the correct temperature
before and while driving.

The heater has two sub-functions:

•

Parking heater - heats the passenger com-
partment as needed when the parking cli-
mate's preconditioning is activated.

•

Auxiliary heater - heats the passenger com-
partment and engine while driving.

The heater is a high-voltage coolant heater and is
mounted in the front right-side wheel housing.

Battery and charging

The heater is powered by the vehicle's hybrid bat-
tery. If the charge level in the hybrid battery is too
low, the heater will switch off automatically and a
message will be displayed in the instrument
panel.

NOTE

Make sure that the battery has sufficient
charge if the heater must be used.

Parking heater

The parking heater heats the passenger com-
partment as needed before driving if precondi-
tioning is activated.

The parking heater is one of two sub-functions of
the vehicle's heater. The heater is mounted in the
front right-side wheel housing.

The parking heater starts automatically if the
parking climate's preconditioning is activated and
the passenger compartment needs to be heated.

It switches off automatically when a set timer
time or the heater's maximum run time expires, or
if the car is restarted.

The heater's maximum running time is 40
minutes.

Additional heater

The auxiliary heater helps heat the passenger
compartment and engine while driving.

The auxiliary heater is one of two sub-functions
of the vehicle's heater. The heater is mounted in
the front right-side wheel housing.

The auxiliary heater is started and controlled
automatically when extra heat is required while
the vehicle is being driven.

It switches off automatically when the ignition is
switched off.

Remote key

The remote key is used to lock and unlock doors
and the tailgate. The remote key must be in the
vehicle in order to start the engine.

Remote control key

, on left, and button-less key ((Key

Tag)*), on right.

The remote key is not physically used to start the
ignition because the vehicle is standard-equipped
with keyless start (Passive Start).

section of the passenger compartment, e.g. in the
driver's pocket or in a cup holder in the tunnel
console.

The illustration is generic - details may vary according to vehicle model.

The keyless system for locking/unlocking the
doors and tailgate (Passive Entry*) is available as
an option. This system has a range in a semicircle
with a radius of approximately 1.5 meter (5 feet)
out from the driver's door and approx. 1 meter
(3 feet) out from the tailgate.

With keyless start in combination with keyless
locking and unlocking, the remote key can be
located anywhere in the passenger compartment
or cargo compartment in order to start the
engine.
Each remote key supplied with the vehicle can be
linked to a driver profile with unique settings for
the vehicle. When a key with a specific profile is
used, the vehicle settings are adjusted according
to that profile.

Buttonless key, Key Tag

For vehicles equipped with keyless locking and
unlocking*, a smaller, lighter and button-less key
(Key Tag

) is also provided. It works the same

way as the regular remote key as regard keyless
start and keyless locking and unlocking. The key
is waterproof up to a depth of approx. 10 meters
(30 feet) for up to 60 minutes. It does not have a
detachable key blade and its battery cannot be
replaced.

Interference

Electromagnetic fields or obstructing objects may
interfere with the remote key's functions for key-
less start and keyless locking and unlocking*.

NOTE

Avoid storing the remote control key near
metal objects or electronic devices, e.g. cell
phones, tablets, laptops or chargers – pref-
erably no closer than 10-15 cm (4-6 in.).

If you experience interference, use the remote
key's detachable blade to unlock the vehicle and

place the remote key in the backup key reader in
the tunnel console cup holder to disarm the
alarm.

NOTE

When the remote control key is placed in the
cup holder, make sure that no other vehicle
keys, metal objects or electronic devices (e.g.
cell phones, tablets, laptops or chargers) are
found in the cup holder. Multiple vehicle keys
close to each other in the cup holder can dis-
rupt their functionality.
