Many are set for 5 minutes before shutdown
. a light on the dash pops up . step on the brake when you see it to set .. cruz control sets the idle rpm up or down.. if yours shuts off n 15 maybe its been set for that

Never drove a volvo, but on the Freightliner and International that I drive if you bump the rpm up slightly and set the cruise control they will idle all day
