Fuel-driven additional heater*
The car is equipped with either an electric or a fuel-driven additional heater.
The heater starts automatically when extra heat is required when the engine is running.
The heater is switched off automatically when the correct temperature is reached or when the engine is switched off.
Note
When the additional heater is active there may be smoke from the right-hand wheel housing, which is perfectly normal.
Auto mode or shutdown
The additional heater's automatic start sequence can be switched off if required.
Note
Volvo recommends that the fuel-driven additional heater should be switched off for short distances.
Before starting the engine: Select key position I.
Press OK to access the menu.
Select one of the alternatives ON or OFF using the thumbwheel and confirm with OK.
Exit the menu with RESET.
Note
The menu options are only visible in key position I - any adjustments must therefore be made before starting the engine.
Passenger compartment heater*
If the additional heater is supplemented with a timer function then it can be used as a passenger compartment heater.
