Volvo Cars and the environment

Clean air in the passenger

compartment

A passenger compartment filter prevents

dust and pollen from entering the passenger

compartment via the air intake.

A sophisticated air quality system, IAQS

(Interior Air Quality System) ensures that the

incoming air is cleaner than the air in the

traffic outside.

The system consists of an electronic sensor

and a carbon filter. The incoming air is

monitored continuously and if there is an

increase in the level of certain unhealthy

gases such as carbon monoxide then the air

intake is closed. Such a situation may arise in

heavy traffic, queues and tunnels for example.

The entry of nitrous oxides, ground-level

ozone and hydrocarbons is prevented by the

carbon filter.

Textile standard

The interior of a Volvo is designed to be

pleasant and comfortable, even for people

with contact allergies and for asthma

sufferers. All of our upholstery and interior

textiles are tested with respect to certain

unhealthy substances and allergens as well

as emissions. This means that all textiles fulfil

the requirements in the Öko-Tex 100

standard

, a major advance towards a

healthier passenger compartment

environment.

Öko-Tex certification covers seatbelts,

carpets, thread and fabrics for example. The

leather in the upholstery undergoes

chromium-free tanning with natural plant

substances and fulfils the certification

requirements.

Volvo workshops and the

environment

Regular maintenance creates the conditions

for a long service life for the car with low fuel

consumption, and this way you contribute to

a cleaner environment. When Volvo’s

workshops are entrusted with the repair and

maintenance of the car, it becomes part of

our system. We make clear demands

regarding the way in which our workshops

are designed in order to prevent spills and

discharges into the environment. Our

workshop staff have the knowledge and the

tools required to guarantee good environ

mental care.

Reducing environmental impact

You can help reduce environmental impact,

for example, by driving economically, by

purchasing eco-labelled car care products

and by servicing and maintaining the car

according to the instructions in the owner’s

manual.

The following hints will help you to do your bit

for the environment:

• Decrease fuel consumption by choosing

ECO tyre pressure, see page 155.

• Since a roof load and ski

box increase air

resistance, leading to

significantly higher fuel

consumption, they

should be removed

immediately after use.

• Remove unnecessary items from the car -

the greater the load the higher the fuel

consumption.

• Is your car equipped with an engine block

heater? If so, use it for a few hours before

starting from cold to reduce fuel

consumption and exhaust emissions.

• Drive gently and avoid braking too hard.
