Welcome to the world-wide family of Volvo owners. We trust that you will enjoy many years of safe
driving in your Volvo, an automobile designed with your safety and comfort in mind. To ensure your
satisfaction with this vehicle, we encourage you to familiarize yourself with the equipment descriptions,
operating instructions, and maintenance requirements/recommendations in this manual. We also urge
you and your passengers to wear seat belts at all times in this (or any other) automobile. And, of course,
please do not operate a vehicle if you may be affected by alcohol, medication, or any impairment that
could hinder your ability to drive.
IMPORTANT! (Automatic transmission only)
Your car is equipped with a Shift-Keylock system.
SHIFTLOCK:
When your car is parked, the gear selector is locked in the (P)ark position. To release the selector from
this position, turn the ignition key to position II (or start the engine), depress the brake pedal, press the
button on the top of the gear selector and move the selector from (P)ark. If it is necessary to manually
override the Shiftlock system, see page 107 for instructions.
KEYLOCK:
This means that when you switch off the ignition, the gear selector must be in the (P)ark position before
the starting (ignition) key can be removed from the ignition switch.
