LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT  
Electrical sockets  
Using electrical sockets  
There is one 12V electrical socket in the tun-  
nel console and one 12V electrical socket* in  
the luggage compartment/cargo area.  
12 V sockets can be used for various acces-  
sories designed for this, such as music play-  
ers, cooler boxes and mobile phones.  
For the sockets to supply current, the car's  
electrical system must be set in the lowest  
ignition position I. The sockets are then active  
as long as the starter battery level does not  
become too low.  
If a problem occurs with an electrical socket,  
contact a workshop - an authorised Volvo  
workshop is recommended.

WARNING  
Electrical sockets (p. 567)  
The glovebox is located on the passenger  
side. The printed owner's manual and maps  
can be kept in the glovebox, for example.  
There is also space for a pen and card holder.  
Do not use accessories with large or  
heavy connectors - they can damage  
the socket or come loose when driving.  
Passenger compartment interior (p. 564)  
Do not use accessories that can cause  
interference to the car's radio receiver  
or electrical system for example.  
Position the accessory so that it is not  
at risk of injuring the driver or passen-  
gers in the event of heavy braking or  
collision.  
Keep an eye on connected accessories  
as they can generate heat that can  
burn passengers or the interior.
