great demands on the battery and its
capacity is reduced by the cold.

Use washer fluid (p. 357) to avoid ice form-
ing in the washer fluid reservoir.

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 requirement
in certain countries. Studded tyres are not
permitted in all countries.

Slippery driving conditions

Practise driving on slippery surfaces under con-
trolled conditions to learn how the car reacts.

Fuel filler flap - Opening/closing

The fuel filler flap can be opened/closed as fol-
lows:

Opening/closing the fuel filler flap

Filling up with fuel

The fuel tank is fitted with a capless fuel filler
system. Filling is carried out as follows:

1. Open the fuel filler door.

2. Choose fuel that is approved for use in the

car in accordance with the identifier

6

 on the

inside of the fuel filler flap.

See information on approved fuels in the
respective section on petrol (p. 297) and
diesel (p. 298).

3. Insert the pump nozzle in the fuel filler open-

ing. Take care to insert the nozzle properly
into the filler pipe. The filler pipe consists of
two opening caps. The nozzle must be
pushed past both caps before refuelling is
started.

4. Do not overfill the tank but stop refuelling

when the pump nozzle cuts out the first time.

NOTE

Overfilled fuel in the tank can overflow in hot
weather.

NOTE

Avoid spilling by waiting approximately
5-8 seconds before carefully removing the
nozzle once refuelling is complete.

Fuel - handling

Fuel of a lower quality than that recommended
by Volvo must not be used as engine power and
fuel consumption is negatively affected.

WARNING

Always avoid inhaling fuel vapour and fuel

splashing 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 medi-

cal attention.
Never swallow fuel. Fuels such as petrol and

diesel are highly toxic and could cause per-

manent injury or be fatal if swallowed. Seek

medical attention immediately if fuel has been

swallowed.

WARNING

Fuel which spills onto the ground can be igni-

ted.
Switch off the fuel-driven heater before star-

ting 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 supplementary
service agreements; this is applicable to all
engines.

NOTE

Extreme weather conditions, driving with a
trailer or driving at high altitudes in combina-
tion with fuel grade are factors that could
affect the car's performance.

Related information

Economical driving (p. 301)

Fuel - petrol

Petrol is a type of engine fuel that is intended for
cars with a petrol engine.

Only use petrol from well-known producers.
Never use fuel of dubious quality. The petrol must
fulfil the EN 228 standard.

Identifier for petrol

The identifier in accordance with the CEN stand-
ard 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 at the latest by the end of
2018.

These are the identifiers that apply for current
standard fuels in Europe. Petrol with the following
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.

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 per-
mitted, e.g. E85 is not permitted.

Octane rating

95 RON can be used for normal driving.

98 RON is recommended for optimum per-
formance and minimum fuel consumption.

When driving in temperatures above +38 °C, fuel
with the highest possible octane rating is recom-
mended for optimum performance and fuel econ-
omy.

IMPORTANT

Use only unleaded petrol to avoid damag-
ing the catalytic converter.

Fuel containing metallic additives must
not be used.

Do not use any additives which have not
been recommended by Volvo.

Fuel - diesel

Diesel is a type of engine fuel that is intended for
cars with a diesel engine.

Only use diesel fuel from well-known producers.
Never use fuel of dubious quality. Diesel fuel
must fulfil the EN 590 or SS 155435 standard.
Diesel engines are sensitive to contaminants in
the fuel, such as excessively high volumes of sul-
phur and metals.

Identifier

The identifier in accordance with the CEN stand-
ard 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 at the latest by the end of
2018.

This is the identifier that applies for current
standard fuel in Europe. Diesel with the following
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) a paraffin
precipitate may form in the diesel fuel, which may
lead to ignition problems. The fuel qualities that
are sold must be adapted for season and climate
zone, but in the event of extreme weather condi-
tions, 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. When refu-
elling, check that the area around the fuel filler
pipe is clean. Avoid spilling fuel onto the paint-
work. Wash off any spillage with detergent and
water.

IMPORTANT

Diesel fuel must:

fulfil the EN 590 and/or SS 155435
standards

have a sulphur content not exceeding
10 mg/kg

have a maximum of 7 vol % FAME

IMPORTANT

Diesel type fuels that must not be used:

Special additives

Marine diesel fuel

Heating oil

 and vegetable oil.

These fuels do not fulfil the requirements in
accordance with Volvo recommendations and
generate increased wear and engine damage
that is not covered by the Volvo warranty.

Empty tank

Once the engine has stopped due to fuel starva-
tion, the fuel system needs a few moments to
carry out a check. Before starting the engine
after the fuel tank has been filled with diesel -
proceed as follows:

1. Insert the remote control key in the ignition

switch and push it in to the end position, see
Key positions (p. 80).

2. Press the START button without depressing

the brake and/or clutch pedal.

3. Wait approx. one minute.
4. To start the engine: Depress the brake

and/or clutch pedal and then press the
START button again.

NOTE

Before filling with fuel in the event of fuel
shortage:

Stop the car on as flat/level ground as
possible - if the car is tilting there is a risk
of air pockets in the fuel supply.

Service intervals for fuel filter

For optimum performance, it is important to fol-
low the service intervals for fuel filter change as
well as to use genuine parts developed specifi-
cally for this purpose.

Fuel - handling (p. 296)

Economical driving (p. 301)

Catalytic converters

The purpose of the catalytic converters is to
purify exhaust gases. They are located close to
the engine so that operating temperature is
reached quickly.

The catalytic converters consist of a monolith
(ceramic or metal) with channels. The channel
walls are lined with a thin layer of platinum/
rhodium/palladium. These metals act as cata-
lysts, i.e. they participate in and accelerate a
chemical reaction without being used up them-
selves.

Lambda-sond

TM

 oxygen sensor

The Lambda-sond is part of a control system
intended to reduce emissions and improve fuel
economy. For more information, see Fuel con-
sumption and CO2 emissions (p. 398).

An oxygen sensor monitors the oxygen content
of the exhaust gases leaving the engine. This
value is fed into an electronic system that contin-
uously controls the injectors. The ratio of fuel to
air directed to the engine is continuously
adjusted. These adjustments create optimal con-
ditions for efficient combustion, and together with
the three-way catalytic converter reduce harmful
emissions (hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and
nitrous oxides).

Filling with fuel - with a fuel can

When filling with fuel (p. 296) from a fuel can,
use the funnel located under the floor hatch in
the cargo area.

IMPORTANT

Statutory provisions relating to storage of
reserve fuel cans in cars vary from country to
country. Check what does apply.

Take care to insert the funnel properly into the
filler pipe. The filler pipe consists of two opening
flaps. The funnel must be pushed past both flaps
before filling is started.

Diesel particle filter (DPF)

Diesel cars are equipped with a particle filter,
which results in more efficient emission control.

The particles in the exhaust gases are collected
in the filter during normal driving. So-called
"regeneration" is started in order to burn away
the particles and empty the filter. This requires
the engine to have reached normal operating
temperature.

Filter regeneration takes place automatically and
normally takes 10-20 minutes. It may take a little
longer at a low average speed. Fuel consumption
may increase slightly during regeneration.

Regeneration in cold weather

If the car is frequently driven short distances in
cold weather then the engine does not reach
normal operating temperature. This means that
regeneration of the diesel particle filter does not
take place and the filter is not emptied.

When the filter has become approximately 80%
full of particles, a yellow warning triangle is
shown in the combined instrument panel, and the
message 

Soot filter full See manual

 is shown

in the information display.

Start regeneration of the filter by driving the car
until the engine reaches normal operating tem-
perature, preferably on a main road or motorway.
The car should then be driven for approximately
20 minutes more.

NOTE

The following may arise during regeneration:

a smaller reduction of engine power may
be noticed temporarily

fuel consumption may increase temporar-
ily

a smell of burning may arise.

When regeneration is complete the warning text
is cleared automatically.

Use the parking heater

* in cold weather so that

the engine reaches normal operating tempera-
ture more quickly.

IMPORTANT

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

Economical driving (p. 301)

Economical driving

Drive economically and eco-consciously by driv-
ing smoothly, thinking ahead, and adjusting your
driving style and speed to the prevailing condi-
tions.

Use the ECO Guide

* (p. 70) which indicates

how fuel-efficiently the car is being driven.

For lower fuel consumption, activate Drive
mode ECO

9

 which can further reduce fuel

consumption.

Use the Eco Coast

10

 freewheel function -

engine braking will cease and the car's
kinetic energy can be used to freewheel for
longer distances.

Drive in the highest gear possible, adapted to
the current traffic situation and road - lower
engine speeds result in lower fuel consump-
tion. Use the gear shift indicator (p. 274)

11

.

Drive at a steady speed and keep a good dis-
tance to other vehicles and objects to mini-
mise braking.

High speed results in increased fuel con-
sumption - the wind resistance increases
with speed.

Do not run the engine to operating tempera-
ture at idling speed, but rather drive with a

normal load right after starting - a cold
engine consumes more fuel than a warm
one.

Drive with the correct air pressure in the
tyres and check this regularly - select ECO
tyre pressure for best results, see Tyres -
approved tyre pressures (p. 405).

Choice of tyres can affect fuel consumption -
seek advice on suitable tyres from a dealer.

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

Use engine braking to slow down, when it
can take place without risk to other road
users.

A roof load and space box increase air resis-
tance, leading to higher fuel consumption -
remove the load carriers when not in use.

Avoid driving with open windows.

phy (p. 22) and Fuel consumption and CO2 emis-
sions (p. 398).

WARNING

Never switch off the engine while moving,

such as downhill, this deactivates important

systems such as the power steering and

brake servo.

Driving with a trailer

When driving with a trailer there are a number of
important points to think about regarding e.g. the
towing bracket, 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 pay-
load by a corresponding weight. For more
detailed information, see Weights (p. 385).

If the towing bracket is mounted by Volvo, then
the car is delivered with the necessary equipment
for driving with a trailer.

The car's towing bracket must be of an
approved type.

If the towbar is retrofitted, check with your
Volvo dealer that the car is fully equipped for
driving with a trailer.

Distribute the load on the trailer so that the
weight on the towing bracket complies with
the specified maximum towball load.

Increase the tyre pressure to the recom-
mended pressure for a full load. For informa-
tion on the tyre pressure, see Tyres -
approved tyre pressures (p. 405).

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.

The brakes are loaded much more than usual
on long and steep downhill slopes. Downshift
to a lower gear and adjust your speed.

For safety reasons, the maximum permitted
speed for the car when coupled with a trailer
should not be exceeded. Follow the regula-
tions in force for the permitted speeds and
weights.

Maintain a low speed when driving with a
trailer up long, steep ascents.

Avoid driving with a trailer on inclines of more
than 12%.

Trailer cable

An adapter is required if the car's towing bracket
has a 13 pin connector and the trailer has a 7 pin
connector. Use an adapter cable approved by
Volvo. Make sure the cable does not drag on the
ground.

Direction indicators and brake lights on
the trailer

If any of the trailer's lamps for direction indicators
are broken, the symbol for direction indicators in
the combined instrument panel flashes faster
than normal and the information display shows
the text 

Trailer indicator malfunction

.

STARTING AND DRIVING

* Option/accessory.

303

If any of the trailer's lamps for the brake light are
broken then the

 text is shown.

Level control

*

The rear shock absorbers maintain a constant
height irrespective of the car's load (up to the
maximum permissible weight). When the car is
stationary the rear of the car lowers slightly,
which is normal.

Trailer weights

For information on Volvo's permitted trailer
weights, see Towing capacity and towball load
(p. 386).

NOTE

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.

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.

Trailer Stability Assist - TSA

13

The trailer stability assist TSA (Trailer Stability
Assist) function is designed to stabilise the car
and trailer combination if it begins to snake.

TSA- the function is included in the stability sys-
tem (p. 186) ESC

14

.

Function

The snaking phenomenon can occur with any
car/trailer combination. Snaking normally occurs
at high speeds. But, there is a risk of it occurring
at lower speeds if the trailer is overloaded or the
load is improperly distributed, 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 sur-
face or in a pothole.

Sweeping steering wheel movements.

Operation

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.

The trailer stability assist function continually
monitors car movements, particularly lateral
movements. If snaking is detected, the front
wheels are individually braked. This serves to sta-
bilise 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 the TSA
system comes into action, the car/trailer combi-
nation is braked with all wheels and engine
power is reduced. Once snaking has been gradu-
ally suppressed and the car/trailer combination is
once again stable, the TSA system stops regulat-
ing and the driver once again has full control of
the car. For more information, see Electronic sta-
bility control (ESC) - general (p. 186).

Miscellaneous

Engagement of the TSA system may take place
at higher speeds.

NOTE

TSA function is switched off if the driver
selects 

Sport

 mode, see Electronic stability

control (ESC) - general (p. 186).

TSA may fail to engage if the driver uses severe
steering wheel movements to try to rectify the
snaking because in such a situation the TSA sys-

tem cannot determine whether it is the trailer or
the driver that is causing the snaking.

The ESC

14

 symbol in the combined

instrument panel flashes when the TSA
system is working.

Towing

During towing, one vehicle is towed by another
vehicle using a tow rope.

Find out the statutory maximum speed limit for
towing before the towing begins.

1. Activate the car's hazard warning flashers.

2. Attach the tow rope in the towing eye.

3. Unlock the steering lock (p. 271) by inserting

the remote control key in the ignition switch
and giving a long press on the START/
STOP ENGINE button - key position II
(p. 81) is activated.

4. The remote control key must remain in the

ignition switch while the car is being towed.

5. Keep the towline taut when the towing vehi-

cle reduces speed by holding your foot gen-
tly pressed on the brake pedal - thereby
avoiding unnecessary jerking.

6. Be prepared to brake to stop.

WARNING

Check that the steering lock is unlocked
before towing.

The remote control key must be in key
position II - in position I all airbags are
deactivated.

Never remove the remote control key
from the ignition switch when the car is
being towed.

WARNING

The brake servo and power steering do not

work when the engine is switched off - the

brake pedal needs to be depressed

about 5 times more heavily and the steering is

considerably heavier than normal.

Manual gearbox

Prior to towing:

Move gear lever into neutral and release the
parking brake.

Automatic gearbox Geartronic

IMPORTANT

Note that the car must always be towed with
the wheels rolling forward.

Do not tow cars with automatic transmis-
sion at speeds higher than 80 km/h
(50 mph) or for distances in excess of 80
km.

Prior to towing:

Move the gear selector to position N and
release the parking brake.

Jump starting

Do not tow the car to bump start the engine. Use
a donor battery if the starter battery is discharged
and the engine does not start, see Jump starting
(p. 271).
