To consider before using the towing eyelet

In certain conditions, the towing eyelet may
be used to pull the vehicle onto a flatbed tow
truck. The vehicle's position and ground
clearance determines if this is possible.

If the incline of the tow truck is too steep or
if the ground clearance under the vehicle is
insufficient, attempting to pull it up using the
towing eyelet may result in damage.

If necessary, lift the vehicle using the tow
truck's lifting device instead of using the
towing eyelet.

WARNING

No person or object should be behind the tow

truck when the vehicle is lifted onto the bed

of the truck.

CAUTION

The towing eyelet is only intended for towing
on roads, and must not be used to pull vehi-
cles from ditches or any similar purpose
involving severe strain. Call a tow truck for
professional assistance.

Removing the towing eyelet

Unscrew the towing eyelet after use and
return it to its storage location in the foam
block.

Replace the cover on the bumper.

Follow these instructions to program
HomeLink

®

, reset all programming, or program

individual buttons.

NOTE

In some vehicles, the ignition must be on or in
the "accessory position" before HomeLink

®

can be programmed or used. It can be a good
idea to put new batteries in the remote con-
trol being replaced by HomeLink

®

 for faster

programming and better radio signal trans-
mission. The HomeLink

®

 buttons should be

reset before programming.

WARNING

While HomeLink

®

 is being programmed, the

garage door or gate being programmed may

be activated. Make sure that no one is near

the door or gate during programming. When

programming a garage door opener, it is

advised to park outside of the garage.

1. Point the remote control at the HomeLink

®

button to be programmed and hold it about
2-8 cm (1-3 inches) from the button. Do not
obstruct the HomeLink

®

 indicator light.

Note: Some remote controls are more effec-
tive at programming HomeLink

®

 from a dis-

tance of about 15-20 cm (6-12 inches). Try
moving the remote control closer or further
away if you are experiencing any difficulties
programming.

2. Press and hold both the remote control but-

ton and the HomeLink

®

 button to be pro-

grammed.

3. Do not release the buttons until the indicator

light has stopped flashing slowly (about once
a second) and either flashes quickly (about
10 times a second) or glows steadily.
> Steady glow: Indication that program-

ming is complete. Press the programmed
button twice to activate.

Flashing quickly: The device being pro-
grammed with HomeLink

®

 may have a

security function that requires an extra
step. Try pressing the programmed button
twice to see whether the programming
works. Otherwise, continue with the fol-
lowing steps.

4. Locate the "training" button

16

 on the

receiver for the e.g. garage door opener. It is
usually located near the antenna bracket on
the receiver.

5. Press and release the "training" button once.

Programming must be completed within 30
seconds after pressing the button.

6. Press and release the HomeLink

®

 button to

be programmed. Repeat the press/hold/
release sequence a second time. For some
receivers, the sequence may need to be
repeated a third time.
> Programming is now completed and the

garage door, gate, etc. should now be
activated when the programmed button is
pressed.

If you experience any difficulties programming,
please contact HomeLink

It is only possible to reset all HomeLink

®

 buttons

at once. It is not possible to reset individual but-
tons. Individual buttons can only be reprogram-
med.

Once HomeLink

®

 is programmed, it can be

used instead of the separate remote controls.

Press and hold the programming button. The
garage door, gate, alarm system, etc. will be acti-
vated (this may take several seconds). If the but-
ton is held down for more than 20 seconds,
reprogramming will begin. The indicator light will
glow steadily or flash when the button has been
pressed. The original remote controls may be
used concurrently with HomeLink

®

 if desired.

NOTE

If the ignition is off, HomeLink

®

 works for

30 minutes after the driver's door has been
opened.

WARNING

If you use HomeLink

®

 to open a garage

door or gate, be sure no one is near the
gate or door while it is in motion.

Do not use HomeLink

®

 with any garage

door opener that lacks safety stop and
reverse features as required by US fed-
eral safety standards (this includes any
garage door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door that
cannot detect an object - signaling the
door to stop and reverse - does not meet
current U.S. federal safety standards. For
more information, contact HomeLink at:
www.homelink.com.

Audio, media and Internet

The audio and media system consists of a media
player and a radio. A cellular phone can also be
connected through Bluetooth to use hands-free
functions or play music in the vehicle. When the
vehicle is connected to the Internet, it is also
possible to use apps to play media.

Audio and media overview

The functions can be controlled using voice com-
mands, the steering wheel keypad or the center
display. The number of speakers and amplifiers
varies depending on the audio system installed in
the vehicle.

System updates

The audio and media system is continuously
improved. When the vehicle has an Internet con-
nection, system updates can be downloaded for
optimal functionality; see support.volvocars.com.

Sound settings

The sound system is precalibrated for optimal
sound reproduction, but these settings can be
personalized.

The system's volume is normally adjusted using
the volume control below the center display or
the right-side steering wheel keypad. This
applies, for example, when playing music or the
radio or during phone calls and active traffic mes-
sages.

Optimal sound reproduction

The audio system is precalibrated for optimal
sound reproduction using digital signal process-
ing. This calibration takes into account speakers,
amplifiers, passenger compartment acoustics, lis-
tener position, etc. for each combination of vehi-
cle model and audio system. There is also a
dynamic calibration that takes into account the
volume control setting and the vehicle's speed.

HD Radio

HD Radio is a brand name registered by the DTS,
Inc.

. They are the developer of a broadcasting

technology called IBOC or In Band On Channel,
which refers to the method of transmitting a digi-
tal radio broadcast signal centered on the same
frequency as the AM or FM station's present fre-
quency.

Introduction

Display when the radio is receiving an HD Radio broad-
cast (generic illustration)

NOTE

HD Radio volume may fade in and out at
times due to coverage limitations.

The IBOC system is referred to as a "hybrid"
since it is both analog and digital. During hybrid
operation, receivers still continue to receive the
analog (non-digital) signal. HD Radio receivers
incorporate both modes of reception, where the
receiver will automatically switch to the analog
signal if the digital signal cannot be decoded or
is lost by the receiver.

When you have tuned to an HD Radio station, the

 symbol will appear in the infotainment sys-

tem display. The symbol will be displayed in dif-
ferent colors:

Grayed-out symbol: No HD Radio broad-
cast reception

White symbol: the radio is actively receiving
an HD broadcast

Orange symbol: the radio is receiving an
HD broadcast with digital sound

More information about HD Radio and IBOC can
be found on DTS, Inc.'s website, www.dts.com.

Artist Experience

A radio station's logo and album art can be dis-
played. If a station opts to provide this informa-
tion, it is broadcast once every 12 minutes, which
means that there may be a delay before the
logo/album art appear on the screen. The radio
can store 100 station logos so the next time the
radio is tuned to the same station, the logo will
