DiCE – Diagnostic Communication Equipment, is a tool that is used together with VIDA All-in-one to communicate with the vehicle. Communication makes diagnosing and troubleshooting the vehicle possible, as well as the downloading of software. DiCE uses Bluetooth to transfer information wirelessly between the vehicle and VIDA All-in-one. This gives the mechanics more flexibility. An USB cable can be used as an alternative to Bluetooth. DiCE has an integrated CARB cable, which is connected to the vehicle’s diagnostic socket. When connecting to the vehicle, DiCE is powered as long as the battery is charged. DiCE has a folding hook that is designed for hanging the unit from one of the grab handles in the
vehicle for example. When DiCE hangs visibly, Bluetooth reception is optimized and it is also visible to the mechanic.

Important note: The diesel left-hand-drive European model was tested by Euro NCAP. Australasian specifications may vary and therefore models sold in Australasia might provide different levels of protection to those described on this page. Model History and Safety Features The tested model of Volvo XC60 was introduced in Australia in March 2009. Dual front airbags, side airbags and head-protecting side curtains are standard equipment. Antilock brakes (ABS), electronic brake distribution (EBD), emergency brake assist and electronic stability control (ESC) are also standard. Intelligent seat belt reminders are fitted all seats. City Safety – an advanced collision avoidance system – is standard. Several other advanced safety features are available. The front seat belt buckles are mounted on the seats and the upper anchorages are adjustable. These features improve the fit of the seat belt. Pretensioners are fitted to all seat belts to reduce slack in the event of a crash. A three point seat belt is fitted to the centre rear seat. This provides better protection than a two point (lap) seat belt.
The Volvo XC60 Concept takes centre stage at the Detroit Motor Show, integrating both the unmistakable, muscular XC-versatility and the sporty charisma of a coupe. “One might say that this could be the C30 owner’s next car. Equally sporty and exciting, but far more capable. The concept car offers a good indication of what the “real” XC60 will look like,” says Fredrik Arp, President and CEO of Volvo Cars. The new Volvo XC60 is planned to reach the showrooms at the beginning of 2009. The concept car shows that Volvo Cars’ XC60 project is ready to challenge the ompetition in what is currently the toughest and fastest-growing segment in the automotive world – the Small Premium Utility segment.
Impressions:
It’s interesting that Volkswagen, the creator of the original minivan, has teamed up with Chrysler, the creator of the modern minivan, to build the new Routan. But why has VW joined the minivan parade at this late date? Haven’t these seven-pas- senger rigs seen their best days? Perhaps, but while minivan sales have declined of late and their are fewer players in the game (both Ford and General Motors have folded their cards), there are still plenty of dedicated category customers out there who would never consider driving anything else.

The Volvo XC60 bears a striking resemblance to its elder and slightly larger stablemates, the XC70 and the XC90. The XC60 continues the Volvo design trend away from sharp angles and square corners and toward softer and more rounded lines. Nothing sporty, of course, but less severe, more relaxed. The front end wears a softened version of the trademark trapezoidal grille, with egg crate mesh behind an Interior Features
The XC60 interior is as true as the exterior to Volvo’s contemporary styling idioms. Even to the odd, slab-like center panel that drops down from the dash to the center console and holds the audio and climate control panels and, when ordered, the new navigation system screen.
Replacement Transmitter
If the transmitter is replaced, the unit may need reprogramming. It is the successor to be scheduled with each key code. To reprogram receiver plug ignition turn to position, II or 5 times within 10 seconds. Leave the ignition of the fifth row. Press or lock or unlock button on the transmitter once within 30 seconds. If the transmitter is fitted with different key codes, each unique programming code must be executed within 30 seconds. Turn off ignition. Check the performance of each receiver.
Before testing separate components or systems that perform procedures in F – BASIC testing – TURBO article. Since many computer-controlled and monitored elements set trouble code if they malfunction, also see G – Tests W / CODE – TURBO article. NOTE: Testing of individual components are not isolated shorts or opens. Unless otherwise specified in the testing procedure fulfills all voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance. Ohmmeter use to isolate the beam electrical wiring shorts or opens.
Installation instructions:
A. Lift the hood, the attachment points identify and remove the bumper cover:
