Materials in the passenger compartment
The interior of the passenger compartment is designed to be pleasant and comfortable, even for people with contact allergies and for asthma sufferers.Tested materials have been developed in order to reduce the quantity of dust in the passenger compartment and to contribute to making the passenger compartment easier to keep clean.The carpets in both the passenger compartment and the cargo area are removable and easy to remove and clean.Use cleaning agents and car care products recommended by Volvo to clean the interior.
Air purification system
In addition to the passenger compartment filter, the car is equipped with an air purification system that helps to maintain high air quality in the passenger compartment.

CleanZone
The CleanZone function checks and indicates whether or not all conditions have been met for good air quality in the passenger compartment.
- The indicator is visible in the climate view in the centre display.
- The indicator is visible in the climate row when the climate view is not open.
- If the conditions have not been met then the CleanZone text is white.
- When all conditions have been met, this is indicated by the text changing colour to blue.
Conditions that need to be met:
- That all doors and the tailgate are closed.
- That all side windows and the panoramic roof are closed.
- That the air purification system Interior Air Quality System is activated.
- That the ventilation fan is activated.
- That the air recirculation is deactivated.
Note
CleanZone does not indicate that the air quality is good. It only indicates that the conditions for good air quality have been met.

Clean Zone Interior Package
Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) comprises a series of modifications that keep the passenger compartment even clearer from allergy and asthma-inducing substances, among other things.
The following is included:
- An enhanced fan function that means that the fan starts when the car is unlocked with the key. The fan fills the passenger compartment with fresh air. The function starts when required and is disengaged automatically after a time or when one of the passenger compartment doors is opened. The amount of time the fan runs is reduced gradually due to reduced need up until the car is 4 years old.
- The fully automatic air purification system Interior Air Quality System (IAQS).
Interior Air Quality System
Interior Air Quality System (IAQS) is a fully automatic air purification system that separates gases and particles to reduce the levels of odours and contaminants in the passenger compartment.IAQS is a part of the Clean Zone Interior Package (CZIP) and cleans the air in the passenger compartment from contaminants such as particles, hydrocarbons, nitrous oxides and ground-level ozone.If the air quality sensor senses that the outside air is contaminated, the air intake is closed and air recirculation is activated.
Note
- The air quality sensor should always be engaged in order to improve the air quality in the passenger compartment.
- In a cold climate recirculation is limited so as to prevent misting.
- In the event of misting, the defrost functions for windscreen, side windows and rear window should be used.
Activating and deactivating the air quality sensor
The air quality sensor is part of the fully automatic air purification system Interior Air Quality System (IAQS).It is possible to set whether the air quality sensor should be activated/deactivated.
- Press Settings in the top view in the centre display.
- Press Climate.
- Select Air Quality Sensor to activate/deactivate the air quality sensor.
Passenger compartment filter
All air entering the car’s passenger compartment is cleaned with a filter.
Replacing the passenger compartment filter
To maintain high climate system performance, the filter must be changed at regular intervals. Follow the Volvo Service Programme for the recommended replacement intervals. If the car is used in a severely contaminated environment, it may be necessary to replace the filter more often.

Air purification
- Air purification the car prior to departure is used to improve air quality in the passenger compartment.
- Air purification can be started directly from the centre display or a mobile phone, but it also starts automatically when preconditioning ends.
- This function uses the ventilation to blow fresh air into the passenger compartment and then circulates the air through the air conditioning system’s passenger compartment filter.
Start and switch off air purification
Air purification improves the air quality in the passenger compartment prior to driving. The function can use direct start from the centre display or a mobile phone.
Start and switch off from car
- Open climate view in the centre display by pressing the symbol in the middle of the climate row.
- Select the Parking climate tab.
- Press Start Pre-cleaning.
- Air purification is started/switched off and the button is illuminates/extinguishes.
Starting from the app
Start of air purification and information about the selected settings can be managed from a device that has the Volvo Cars app.

Note
- Air purification starts automatically when preconditioning is completed.
- Windows and doors must be closed for air purification to be possible.
Air purification
The Air Quality app is a service that visualises the measured content of small airborne particulate matter inside the car over time.
A climate sensor measures the content of PM2.5 particles (particles smaller than 2.5 µm) in the passenger compartment.
A climate sensor measures the content of PM2.5 particles (particles smaller than 2.5 µm) in the passenger compartment.
To be able to use this app, the following is required:
- The car must have access to the network for at least 1 minute when the app is started or the car is restarted.
- The car must be running in order for the PM2.5 sensor to take measurements.
