Immobilizer : If two of the keys to your vehicle are close together, e.g., on the same key ring when you try to start the vehicle, this could cause interference in the immobilizer system and result in the vehicle not starting. If this should occur, remove one of the keys from the key ring before trying to start the vehicle again. Keylock: Your vehicle is equipped with a keylock system. When the engine is switched off, the gear selector must be in the (P)ark position before the key can be removed from the ignition switch. When starting in cold weather, the automatic transmission may shift up at slightly higher engine speeds than normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating temperature. Do not race a cold engine immediately after starting. Oil flow may not reach some lubrication points fast enough to prevent engine damage. WARNING! Volvo's floor mats are specially manufactured for your car. They must be firmly secured in the clips on the floor so that they cannot slide and become trapped under the pedals on the driver's side. pg. 105 Starting the vehicle CAUTION! Automatic transmission: The engine should be idling when you move the gear selector. Never accelerate until after you feel the transmission engage! Accelerating immediately after selecting a gear will cause harsh engagement and premature transmission wear. Selecting P or N when idling at a standstill for prolonged periods of time will help prevent overheating of the automatic transmission fluid. WARNING! Always place the gear selector in Park and apply the parking brake before leaving the vehicle. Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running. Always open garage doors fully before starting the engine inside a garage to ensure adequate ventilation. The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which is invisible and odorless but very poisonous. pg. 106 Ignition switch and steering wheel lock 0 - Locked position Remove the key to lock the steering wheel 1 . Never turn the key to position 0 while driving or when the vehicle is being towed. NOTE: A ticking sound may be audible if the key is turned to a position between 0 and I. To stop this sound, turn the key to position II and back to position 0. I - Intermediate position 2 Certain accessories, radio, etc. on, daytime running lights off
