General information on climate control
03
Air conditioning
The car is equipped with electronic climate
control (ECC). The climate control system
controls the air conditioning (AC) and the
cooling, heating and dehumidifying of the air
in the passenger compartment.
Misting windows
Remove misting on the insides of the win-
dows by first using the defroster function.
To reduce the risk of misting, clean the win-
dows with a normal window cleaning agent.
Ice and snow
Remove ice and snow from the climate con-
trol air intake (the grille between the bonnet
and the windscreen).
Fault tracing and repair
Entrust fault tracing and repair of the climate
control system to an authorised Volvo work-
shop only.
Refrigerant
The air conditioning system contains R134a
refrigerant. This refrigerant contains no chlo-
rine, which means that it is harmless to the
ozone layer. The system must only be
charged with R134a refrigerant. Have an
authorised Volvo workshop carry out this
work.
Passenger compartment filter
All air which enters the passenger compart-
ment is first cleaned by a filter. This filter
must be replaced regularly. Follow the Volvo
Service Programme for the recommended
replacement intervals. If the car is used in a
severely contaminated environment, it may
be necessary to replace the filter more often.
Display
There is a display above the climate control
panel that displays climate control settings.
Personal preferences
You can set preferences for two climate con-
trol functions:
• Fan speed in AUTO mode (applies only to
cars with ECC).
• Recirculation timer for passenger com-
partment air.
For information about these settings, see
page 61.
NOTE
The air conditioning can be switched off,
but to ensure the best possible air in the
passenger compartment and prevent the
windows from misting, it should always
be on.
NOTE
There are several different types of passen-
ger compartment filter. Ensure that the cor-
rect filter is installed.
