VOLVO NAVIGATION SYSTEM (VNS)
VNS is a navigation system developed by Volvo, which is
designed to help guide you to the destination of your choice
and provide information along the way.
The system includes features that enable you to set itineraries,
search for certain types of points of interest along your route,
store special destinations, etc.
The system indicates the vehicle’s current location, and shows
part or all of the route to your destination, depending on the
settings you have made. If at any time you should decide to
deviate from the route originally set by the system, a new route
to the destination will automatically be calculated.
By enabling you to reach your destination quickly and by the
most direct route, Volvo's navigation system also helps con-
tribute to improving the environment.

lowing navigation system guidance,
and do not follow guidance that seems
contrary to your own best judgment.
•Never use the navigation system or any
other feature in your vehicle in a way
that distracts you from the task of driv-
ing safely. Distraction can lead to a seri-
ous accident.

DVDs and the screen
02
15
Contents of DVDs
Each set of DVDs contains at least two discs.
Each disc contains information covering a
greater part of the North American network of
roads. However, each disc contains detailed
information about addresses, points of inter-
est, etc., in a specific geographic area.
During a trip, a message will be displayed when
it is time to switch DVDs. If the DVD containing
detailed information about the area in which
you are currently driving is not inserted, only
general information about the road network will
be available.
The maps and data on the DVDs are static.
They will not automatically update to reflect
real-life changes to road and traffic patterns.
Updated DVDs are produced periodically.
Please contact your Volvo retailer for more
information about availability.
Changing DVDs
When changing DVDs, the ignition must be on
during the entire procedure (see the vehicle’s
Owner’s Manual).
1. Turn on the navigation system.
2. Remove the upholstered panel that con-
ceals the main unit under the floor on the
left side of the trunk or cargo compartment.
3. Hook a thumb behind the upper edge and
pull it out (see the overview illustrations at
the beginning of this chapter).
4. Release the catch on front of the main unit.
5. Press the EJECT button and remove the
DVD.
6. Insert the new map DVD.
7. Lock the catch.
In certain cases, new functions may be added
to the system when the new DVD is inserted. If
the DVD also contains new system software,
you will be prompted to accept a system
update.
Confirm by selecting YES.
The text Preparing to load System
Software. Please wait… will then be dis-
played.
The update takes approximately 15 minutes.
The VNS start screen will be displayed when
updating is completed and the navigation sys-
tem is ready for use.
NOTE
The screen may retract or go blank while an
update is underway.

•When changing discs, make sure that they
are kept free of oil, grease and other impur-
ities.
•The discs must not be exposed to mois-
ture.
•The discs must be kept in their packaging
when not in use.
•Avoid storing discs in excessive heat,
direct sunlight, or in a dusty environment.
Screen care
Clean the display screen with a soft, non-static
cloth or a moist paper towel and a mild window
cleaning agent.
Never use petroleum based solvents or abra-
sive substances when cleaning the screen.

a gyroscopic sensor, it calculates the vehi-
cle’s current location and direction.
This also helps the system calculate direc-
tion and location if the GPS signal is tem-
porarily interrupted, such as when driving
through a tunnel.
Speakers
Sound from the navigation system comes from
the vehicle’s audio system front speakers.
Screen
The screen displays the maps and provides

tances, etc.
For information about caring for the screen,
see page 15.
Navigation control
The navigation control is located in the right
rear side of the steering wheel. Use it to move
among menu alternatives, to confirm selec-
tions or to go back in the menu system.
For additional information, see page 20.
Volume control and infrared (IR)
receiver
Use the vehicle’s audio system volume control
during voice guidance to raise or lower the vol-
ume. The volume can also be adjusted in the
menu system.
The IR receiver for the VNS remote control is
located above the numeric keypad on the cen-
ter instrument panel.
