WARNING
•
Never use more than one floor mat at a
time on the driver's floor. Before driving,
remove the original mat from the driver's
seat floor before using any other type of
floor mat. Any mat used in this position
should be securely and properly anchored
in the attaching pins. An extra mat on the
driver's floor can cause the accelerator
and/or brake pedal to catch. Check that
the movement of these pedals is not
impeded.
•
Volvo's floor mats are specially manufac-
tured for your car. They must be firmly
secured in the clips on the floor so that
they cannot slide and become trapped
under the pedals on the driver's side.
During normal starts, the electric motor is priori-
tized and the gasoline engine will not start. This
means that when the start knob has been turned
clockwise and released, the electric motor is acti-
vated ("started") and the vehicle is ready to be
driven. The warning and information symbols in
the instrument panel will go out and the chosen
theme will be displayed to indicate that the elec-
tric motor has been activated.
However, in certain situations, such as in cold
weather or if the hybrid battery is not sufficiently
charged, the gasoline engine will start instead.
The vehicle should not be started if the
charging cable is connected. However, if the
cable cannot be disconnected or if the vehicle
incorrectly detects a cable that is not connected,
the vehicle can be started using an override pro-
cedure:
1. Press the brake pedal and turn the start
knob clockwise as far as possible.
2.
Remove charge cable to start will appear
in the instrument panel.
3. Turn the start knob clockwise as far as possi-
ble again.
4.
Charge cable removed? Press start
button 7s to start will be displayed. Turn
the start knob clockwise as far as possible
again and hold it for 7 seconds to start the
vehicle.
NOTE
The vehicle cannot be started if the hybrid
battery is discharged.

If the vehicle is moving, it is only necessary to turn the start knob clockwise as far as possible to start the engine.
