as much as posssi-
ble, or electrical functions that require a great
deal of electrical current when the engine is not
running.
Using ignition mode
I
whenever possible con-
sumes less electrical current.
Functions that require a great deal of electrical
current include:
•
the climate system blower
•
headlights
•
wipers
•
infotainment system (especially at high vol-
ume).
If the battery's charge level is low, a text message
will appear in the instrument panel. The vehicle's
energy-saving function will then turn off or
reduce certain functions that are currently con-
suming electrical current.
If the battery needs to be recharged, start the
engine and let it idle for at least 15 minutes or
drive the vehicle (driving charges the battery
faster than letting the engine idle).

Before a long distance trip
It is always worthwhile to have your vehicle
checked by a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician before driving long distances. Your
retailer will also be able to supply you with bulbs,
fuses, spark plugs and wiper blades for your use
in the event that problems occur.
As a minimum, the following items should be
checked before any long trip:
•
Check that engine runs smoothly and that
fuel consumption and the oil level are normal.
•
Check for fuel, oil, and fluid leakage.
•
Check condition of drive belts.
•
Check state of the battery's charge.
•
Examine tires carefully (including the spare
tire where applicable), and replace those that
are worn. Also, check tire inflation pressure.
•
The brakes, front wheel alignment, and steer-
ing gear should be checked by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician only.
•
Check all lights, including high beams.
•
Reflective warning triangles are legally
required in some states/provinces.
•
Have a word with a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician if you intend to drive
