Other information:
If you haven't activated data sharing for a connected service or for downloaded
apps, you can do this when you start them in your center display. The first time
that you start a service, or e.g. after a factory reset or certain software updates,
you will also need to accept Volvo's terms and conditions for connected services...
A more economical driving style can help lower fuel consumption.
Before driving
If possible, precondition the vehicle before driving.
If preconditioning is not possible when it is cold outside, use seat and
steering wheel heating first. Avoid heating the entire passenger compartment
to reduce the amount of current being taken from the start battery...
