BHeating and air conditioning
Your Volvo is equipped with a heating system combined with air conditioning. Depending on which
function you select, warm or cool/cold air is distributed to the different parts of the passenger
compartment. A slight amount of condensation may be emitted from the air vents when the air
conditioning is initially switched on. This can occur when both humidity and ambient temperature are
high and is normal.
Air mix (fresh air)
The center panel vents have an air mix function which allows fresh air to enter the passenger
compartment when the vents are open (position A). This function is designed to allow you to direct cool
air toward your face while directing warmer air to the rest of the passenger compartment.
To warm/cool the compartment as quickly as possible, the air mix control should be in the closed
position.
