Tip  
Help from passengers  
Tasks that risk distracting the driver can often be done by a passenger instead. However, certain actions are simply not  
available in the car when driving, such as reading this manual in the centre display. For these actions, you need to be  
parked.  
Voice commands  
Voice commands can, in some situations, be less distracting than manually doing the same task.  
Driver fatigue  
The driver is always responsible for being well-rested. Your car has some functions with abilities to warn you if you show signs  
of fatigue. It's important to always stop and take a break at the slightest feeling of fatigue, regardless of whether a function has  
given you a warning.  
Laws and regulations  
The driver is always responsible for knowing and following local laws and regulations. If you drive to a region with other traffic  
laws, make sure that the car is equipped as required and read up on which traffic laws differ from what you're used to.

Warning  
Systems can be negatively affected  
Unapproved or incorrectly installed accessories can negatively affect your car's performance, communication and safety  
systems. Certain accessories only work with associated software that needs to be installed in the car.  
Electrical installations  
For additional electrical installations, it is essential that appropriate connection points are used to ensure the integrity of  
the car's electrical system. The car has a specific ground attachment point designated for aftermarket installations, which  
is separate from those reserved for critical components. Volvo recommends an authorised Volvo workshop for any elec-  
trical installations.  
End-of-life handling  
Some parts of the car are dangerous to handle. Special handling is required when servicing, or scrapping after the car has  
reached its end-of-life.  
Electrical components in the car[5] may contain harmful substances and can deliver lethal electrical currents if  
handled incorrectly.  
Components such as airbag modules, seatbelt tensioners, adaptable steering columns and button cell batteries may  
contain perchlorate materials.
