Special tips - automatic transmission
●
For driving down steep hills and when driving for prolonged periods at low speeds, position L should
be selected. Avoid, however, repeated changes since this can cause overheating of the transmission oil.
For driving on long continuous uphill gradients, select position 3.
●
Never select P or R while the car is in motion.
●
When initially selecting positions D, 3, L or R, your right foot should press firmly on the brake pedal
to ensure that the car is standing still with the engine idling.
●
The gear selector should not be downshifted to L at speeds above 75 mph (125 km/h). Always
observe posted speed limits.
●
Do not hold the car stationary on an incline by using the accelerator pedal. Instead, apply the hand
brake (parking brake). This prevents the transmission oil from becoming overheated.
●
When towing a trailer, select shift position 3.
●
While towing a trailer in hilly terrain, do not drive continuously at engine speeds above 4500 rpm to
help avoid high engine oil temperatures.
●
On certain models during cold starts, the transmission will shift up at higher rpm to enable the three-
way catalytic converter to reach its normal operating temperature as quickly as possible.
All Wheel Drive (AWD)
(certain models)
The All Wheel Drive system in your Volvo is designed to meet rigorous technical requirements. Used
correctly, AWD better enables you to deal with varying road conditions than would be possible on a car
equipped with conventional front or rear wheel drive only.
Please note that the AWD system is permanently engaged.
