Climate – general information
The vehicle is equipped with Electronic Cli-
mate Control (ECC) (p. 110) that cools, heats
or dehumidifies the air in the passenger com-
partment.
Air conditioning
•
The air conditioning can be switched
off, but to ensure the best possible cli-
mate comfort in the passenger com-
partment and to prevent the windows
from misting, it should always be on.
•
In warm weather, a small amount of
water may accumulate under the car
when it has been parked. This water is
condensation from the A/C system
and is normal.
Fog on the inside of the windows
The defroster function (p. 112) should be
used to remove fog or mist from the inside of
the windows. Keeping the windows clean
with a commercially available window wash-
ing spray will also help prevent fogging or
misting.
Temporary shut-off of the air
conditioning
The air conditioning (p. 112) is momentarily
disengaged during full acceleration or when
driving uphill with a trailer. This may result in
a temporary increase in cabin temperature.
Ice and snow
Always keep the air intake grille at the base of
the windshield free of snow.
Climate system maintenance
Special tools and equipment are required to
maintain and carry out repairs on the climate
system. Work of this type should only be
done by a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
Refrigerant
Volvo cares about the environment. The air
conditioning system in your car contains a
CFC-free refrigerant – R134a. This substance
will not deplete the ozone layer. The air con-
ditioning system contains 1.76 lbs (800 g) of
R134a. The systems uses PAG oil.

Climate – sensors
The climate system utilizes a number of sen-
sors to help regulate the temperature and
humidity level in the passenger compartment.
Sensor location
•
The sunlight sensor is located on the top
side of the dashboard.
The sunlight sensor monitors which side of
the car that is most exposed to sunlight.
This can mean that the temperature may
differ between the right and left-side air
vents, even if the temperatures set for both
sides of the passenger compartment are
the same.
•
The temperature sensor for the passen-
ger compartment is located below the cli-
mate control panel.
•
The outside (ambient) temperature sensor
is located on the door mirror.
•
The humidity sensor* is located in the
interior rearview mirror.
Do not cover or block the sensors with
clothing or other objects.
