Heating 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. 
Refrigerant 
The air conditioning system in your car contains a CFC-free refrigerant - R134a. This is an 
environmentally friendly substance having minimal effect on the earth's ozone layer. The system 
contains 1.65 lbs (0.75 kg) R134a.
