Maybe a cheap Kobo/e-reader and pdf?

Unfortunately not an on-line or .pdf format, at least that I am aware of. The "owner's manual" is only in "app" form from the Volvo Cars app or similarly on the vehicle touch screen for on-board viewing. So you can search for and read about one topic/feature/thing at a time, but not the same as the 644-page printed manual with chapters on the various components of the car. Minor complaint for a $60,000 car with no manual, and fine for some I guess, but with the coupon for accessory discounts I'll spend the $51.95 if only they were available from the Volvo Bookstore.

 

The App version of the manual is sadly no longer supported (at least in UK). You can still see the content but you get a message saying it is not supported or updated - not sure if you can still download it though from the App Store.

Now the only option is to look at the manual in car (which is kept updated) but which is hardly helpful if you want to sit on the couch reading it of an evening!

 

I too would like to acquire a printed manual specific to the Extended Range XC90 (T8 Recharge) that will be arriving at dealers shortly. Is there a unique manual for this mid year model (Model Year 22.5)?

Failing that is there at least a printed version of a manual for the Sensus Infortainment System. I am feeling a bit daunted about showing up to pick up a vehicle on Over Seas Delivery and then be able to master the Sensus system based upon a brief preview by the delivery attendant. I have checked out a few YouTube videos that touch on some of the Sensus's features but nothing that provides the confidence that I want as to what the complete system offers and trouble shooting suggestions when all does not go as expected.

It would be welcome reading on the 20 plus some hours of flight time enroute to Sweden.

 

Think you can get .PDF file from "Volvo Cars" mobile application on your phone. it allows to download and save that file, after that move it to your PC. Not sure if printing ( manual for V90CC is 681 pages) is good idea or not.

 

I see note from earlier post today that at least in UK the Volvo Manual app is no longer updated. I just logged in now and see that in U.S. as of 3 months ago, version 4.3.1 states "updated manuals will from now on will not be available in the Volvo Manual app."

In the Volvo Cars app, I don't see any way to download as a file. Although as you point out, printing 340+ double sided pages is not really of interest either . . .

Volvo simply needs to order up some printed copies to have available. For increasingly complex vehicles with ever more systems and options, a printed manual should be the standard, not simply the current "selected information from the manual" booklet and "sit in the car and search for topics on the display screen".

 

Go here and you can download almost any Volvo Owners Manual back to around 1970. Download to your computer.

They even have manuals to explain Sensus.

For 2022 models (and perhaps other recent years as well?), there is no longer a provision to download a copy of the manual, only to "explore topics" in the online site or similarly explore topics in the vehicle on the center display screen, neither of which provides the ability to fully read/comprehensively learn about all systems/options/functions.

Not true, you can download each description ( like specifications ) and have a copy on paper if you want to print it. I would rather have a booklet Owners Manual as we did in the past, but hardly anything has a paper manual anymore.

Let me know if you've found a way to download the entire manual (or even view it in it's entirety).

That used to be an available function, but now you can only search for one specific description, and export or print that one item's page or three, but not a practical option for the 200, 300, ? individual topics in the 688 page printed manual.

 

It doesn`t seem to like Internet Explorer

 

Well, thanks for the links. At least one can download a PDF-manual for MY2021, which is better than nothing.
No chance for MY2022, though. (I'm mainly talking about the S60 - in my case.)
I also find the sales brochures (for up to 2020) interesting. They were so much clearer and engaging than the online configurators.

 

Seems the printed copies from Volvo's web store are again/still "out of stock".

Was this at Volvo Car Bookstore?
I can seem to add to cart and go all the way through checkout.
I might actually try that but there are two part numbers for the V60 and I can't for the life of me figure out how they're different.

While I was able to get a printed copy of the XC90 2002 manual when it showed up for a while on the Volvo bookstore site (a year+ ago), there is at least now another way to view a scanned copy of the 730 page book at:

User manual Volvo XC90 (2022) (English - 730 pages)

There is then a link on that page to:

Perhaps this might be a way for other models' manuals to be found as well . . .
