Air conditioning (standard on certain models)

How to use the air conditioner:

1 Fan

Position 4 for rapid cooling.

2 Air conditioning (compressor)

Start the air conditioning by pressing the panel switch. The system activates after a slight delay.

3 Recirculation

Push in for rapid cooling and during high humidity conditions.

4 TEMP

The selector should be in the leftmost position when the system is started. The TEMP selector can then be used to adjust the temperature.

Left = cool Right = warm

If your car is equipped with an air conditioner, the system contains CFC-12, a type of Freon®. CFC-12 is a gas which effects the ozone layer of the earth's atmosphere. Let your Volvo dealer check your air conditioning system regularly for leakage.

The system contains 2.4 lbs (1.1 kg) CFC-12 Freon.

To obtain rapid cooling, all windows must be closed and buttons and out. Cool air will then be discharged through the four dash outlets which should be fully open.

Note: For rapid removal of condensation from inside glass surfaces, the air conditioner can be switched on even when not required for interior cooling. The air conditioner will dehumidify the air inside the vehicle.

Water under the vehicle in hot weather can be the result of condensation from the air conditioning system.

Have your Volvo dealer check the system for correct operation yearly. The air conditioning system should be operated periodically to ensure troublefree performance year round.
