Using the electrical outlets  
Using 12 V outlets  
1. Remove the stopper (tunnel console) or  
fold down the cover (trunk/cargo com-  
partment) over the socket and plug in the  
device.  
The 12 V outlet can be used for devices  
intended for this such as MP3 players, cool-  
ers and cellular phones.  
Bear in mind that using the electrical out-  
lets when the engine is off could cause the  
starter battery to have too low of a charge  
level, which could limit other functionality.  
The high-voltage outlet* can be used for devi-  
ces intended for this, such as chargers, lap-  
tops, etc.  
The ignition must be in at least mode I for the  
outlets to supply current. The outlets will then  
be active as long as there is sufficient charge  
in the start battery.  
2. Unplug the device and put the stopper  
back in (tunnel console) or fold up the  
cover (trunk/cargo compartment) when  
the socket is not in use or left unattended.  
Accessories connected to the electrical  
outlets can be activated even when the  
vehicle electrical system is off or if precon-  
ditioning is used. For this reason, discon-  
nect plugs when they are not in use to pre-  
vent the starter battery from becoming dis-  
charged.  
If the engine is turned off and the vehicle is  
locked, the outlets will be deactivated. If the  
engine is turned off and the vehicle remains  
unlocked, the sockets will remain active for up  
to 7 minutes.  
The maximum power is 120 W (10 A) per  
outlet.  
WARNING  
Using high-voltage outlets  
Do not use accessories with large or  
heavy plugs – they could damage the  
outlet or come loose while you are driv-  
ing.  
The ignition must be in at least mode I for the  
outlets to supply current. The outlets will then  
be active as long as there is sufficient charge  
in the start battery.  
Do not use accessories that could  
cause disruptions to e.g. the vehicle's  
radio receiver or electrical system.  
Slide down the cover over the outlet and  
plug in the device.  
1.  
The LED2 light on the outlet will indi-  
cate its status.  
>
Position the accessory so that there is  
no risk of it injuring the driver or pas-  
sengers in the event of heavy braking  
or a collision.  
2. The outlet is supplying electrical current  
when the light is glowing steadily green.  
Pay attention to connected accessories  
as they can generate heat that could  
burn passengers or the interior.

Using the glove compartment  
The glove compartment is located on the pas-  
senger side. The glove compartment can be  
used to store the Owner's Manual, maps, etc.  
There is also room for a pen and a card  
holder.  
WARNING  
Only use accessories that are not dam-  
aged or malfunctioning. The accesso-  
ries must be CE marked, UL marked or  
have an equivalent safety marking.  
Pull up the cover when the outlet is not in  
use or is left unattended.  
Accessories must be designed for 120  
V and 60 Hz, with plugs intended for  
the outlet.  
The maximum power is 150 W.  
New let outlets, plugs or accessories  
come into contact with water or  
another fluid. Do not touch or use the  
outlet if it appears damaged or has  
been in contact with water or another  
fluid.  
WARNING  
Do not attempt to alter or repair the high-  
voltage outlet on your own. Volvo recom-  
mends contacting an authorized Volvo  
workshop.  
Do not connect power strips, adapters  
or extension cords to the outlet has  
this could cause the outlet's safety  
functions to malfunction.  
The glove compartment is opened by pressing  
the opening button in the center console.  
The outlet is equipped with a pet  
guard. Make sure that no one picks at  
or damages the outlet in such a way  
that the guard is disabled. Children  
should not be left unsupervised in the  
vehicle when the outlet is active.  
Locking and unlocking the glove box  
The glove compartment can be locked ("pri-  
vate locking") when the vehicle is left at a  
workshop, hotel, etc. When private locking is  
activated, the tailgate is also locked.  
Failure to follow the above could lead to  
severe or fatal electrical shocks.  
Using the glove box as a cooled area*  
The glove compartment can be used to cool  
e.g. drinks or food. Cooling is possible when

The vehicle has a flexible cargo compartment  
that makes it possible to carry and secure  
large objects.  
The cargo compartment capacity can be con-  
siderably increased by folding down the back-  
rests in the second and third rows* of seats.  
To make loading and unloading easier, the rear  
section of the vehicle can be raised and low-  
ered using the level control function*. Use the  
load anchoring eyelets or grocery bag holders  
to help secure objects in place, and the  
retractable cargo compartment cover* to help  
conceal objects in the cargo compartment.
