vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pres- sure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pres- sure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driv- er's responsibility to maintain correct tire pres- sure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the mal- function indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly. 188 NOTE • TPMS indicates low tire pressure but does not replace normal tire mainte- nance. For information on correct tire pressure, please refer to the tables beginning, see page 170, or consult your Volvo retailer. • The tire pressure warning light will not identify which tire is underinflated. Be sure to check all four tires. • A certain amount of air seepage from the tires occurs naturally and tire pres- sure fluctuates with seasonal changes in temperature. Always check tire pres- sure regularly. Erasing warning messages When a low tire pressure warning message has been displayed, and the tire pressure warning light has come on: 1. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the inflation pressure of all four tires. 2. Re-inflate the tire(s) to the correct pressure 3. (consult the tire pressure placard or the tables, see page 170 ). In certain cases, it may be necessary to drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster. This 07 Wheels and tires Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will erase the warning text and the warning light will go out. WARNING Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, resulting in a loss of control of the vehicle. Changing wheels with TPMS Please note the following when changing or replacing the factory installed TPMS wheels/ tires on the vehicle: • Only the factory-mounted wheels are equipped with TPMS sensors in the valves. • If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire, this tire does not have a TPMS sensor. • If wheels without TPMS sensors are moun- ted on the vehicle, TIRE PRESS SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed each time the vehicle is driven above 25 mph (40 km/h) for 10 minutes or more. • Once TPMS sensors are properly installed, the warning message should not reappear. If the message is still displayed, drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster to erase the message. • Volvo recommends that TPMS sensors be fitted on all wheels used on the vehicle. Volvo does not recommend moving sen- sors back and forth between sets of wheels. NOTE • If you change to tires with a different recommended inflation pressure, the TPMS system must be recalibrated to these tires. This must be done by an authorized Volvo retailer or workshop. • If a tire is changed, or if the TPMS sen- sor is moved to another wheel, the sen- sor's seal, nut, and valve core should be replaced. • When installing TPMS sensors, the vehicle must be parked for at least 15 minutes with the ignition off. If the vehicle is driven within 15 minutes, a TPMS error message will be displayed. CAUTION When inflating tires with TPMS valves, press the pump's mouthpiece straight onto the valve to help avoid bending or otherwise damaging the valve. 07 189 Washing and cleaning the car............................................................... 192 Paint touch up....................................................................................... 196 190 CAR CARE 08 fully.Solvents or stain removers should not be used. CAUTION • Avoid waxing or polishing plastic or rub- ber components • Polishing chromed strips can wear away or damage the surface • Polishes containing abrasive sub- stances should not be used 08 Car care Washing and cleaning the car Washing the car The following points should be kept in mind when washing and cleaning the car: • The car should be washed at regular inter- vals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spots adhere to the paint and may cause dam- age. To help prevent corrosion, it is partic- ularly important to wash the car frequently in the wintertime when salt has been used on the roads. • Avoid washing your car in direct sunlight. Doing so may cause detergents and wax to dry out and become abrasive. To avoid scratching, use lukewarm water to soften the dirt before you wash with a soft sponge, and plenty of sudsy water. • Bird droppings: Remove from paintwork as soon as possible. Otherwise the finish may be permanently damaged. • A detergent can be used to facilitate the softening of dirt and oil. • A water-soluble grease solvent may be used in cases of sticky dirt. However, use a wash place equipped with a drainage separator. • Dry the car with a clean chamois and remember to clean the drain holes in the doors and rocker panels. • Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover after the car has been washed. • A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapy water can be used to clean the wiper blades. Frequent cleaning of the wind- shield and wiper blades improves visibility considerably and also helps prolong the service life of the wiper blades. • Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel housings, fenders, etc). • In areas of high industrial fallout, more fre- quent washing is recommended. • After cleaning the engine, the spark plug wells should be inspected for water and blown dry if necessary. NOTE When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills. Exterior components Volvo recommends the use of special cleaning products, available at your Volvo retailer, for cleaning colored plastic, rubber, or ornamental components such as chromed strips on the exterior of your vehicle. The instructions for using these products should be followed care- 08 192 CAUTION • During high pressure washing, the spray mouthpiece must never be closer to the vehicle than 13" (30 cm). Do not spray into the locks. • Dirt, snow, etc., on the headlights can reduce lighting capacity considerably. Clean the headlights regularly, for example when refueling. • When washing or steam cleaning the engine, avoid spraying water or steam directly on the electrical components or toward the rear side of the engine. • Always close the moonroof (option) and sun shade before washing your vehicle. • Never use abrasive cleaning agents on the moonroof. • Never use wax on the rubber seals around the moonroof. Automatic washing – simple and quick We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the first six months (because the paint will not have hardened suf- ficiently). An automatic wash is a simple and quick way to clean your car, but it is worth remembering that it may not be as thorough as when you yourself go over the car with sponge and water. Keeping the underbody clean is most impor- tant, especially in the winter. Some automatic washers do not have facilities for washing the underbody. CAUTION • Before driving into an automatic car wash, turn off the optional rain sensor to avoid damaging the windshield wip- ers. • Make sure that side view mirrors, auxil- iary lamps, etc, are secure, and that any antenna(s) are retracted or removed. Otherwise there is risk of the machine dislodging them • Chromed wheels: Clean chrome- plated wheels using the same deter- gents used for the body of the vehicle. Aggressive wheel-cleaning agents can permanently stain chrome-plated wheels. WARNING • When the car is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brakes several times in order to remove any moisture from the brake linings. • Engine cleaning agents should not be used when the engine is warm. This constitutes a fire risk. 08 Car care Washing and cleaning the car Exterior lighting Condensation may form temporarily on the inside of the lenses of exterior lights such as headlights, fog lights, or taillights. This is nor- mal and the lights are designed to withstand moisture. Normally, condensation will dissi- pate after the lights have been on for a short time. Polishing and Waxing • Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery, however, wax- ing may be beneficial. • Before applying polish or wax the vehicle must be washed and dried. Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover. Difficult spots may require a fine rubbing compound. • After polishing use liquid or paste wax. • Several commercially available products contain both polish and wax. • Waxing alone does not substitute for pol- ishing a dull surface. • A wide range of polymer-based waxes can be purchased today. These waxes are easy to use and produce a long-lasting, high- gloss finish that protects the bodywork against oxidation, road dirt and fading. • Do not polish or wax your vehicle in direct sunlight (the surface of the vehicle should not be warmer than 113 °F (45 °C). 08 (cid:96)(cid:96) 193 08 Car care Washing and cleaning the car CAUTION Volvo does not recommend the use of long- life or durable paint protection coatings, some of which may claim to prevent pitting, fading, oxidation, etc. These coatings have not been tested by Volvo for compatibility with your vehicle's clear coat. Some of them may cause the clear coat to soften, crack, or cloud. Damage caused by application of paint protection coatings may not be cov- ered under your vehicle's paint warranty. Upholstery care Fabric Clean with soapy water or a detergent. For more difficult spots caused by oil, ice cream, shoe polish, grease, etc., use a clothing/fabric stain remover. Consult your Volvo retailer. Interior plastic components Cleaning interior plastic components should be done with a cleaning agent specially designed for this purpose. Consult your Volvo retailer. Alcantera™ suede-like material Suede-like upholstery can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution. Leather care Volvo's leather upholstery is manufactured with a protectant to repel soiling. Over time, sunlight, grease and dirt can break down the protection. Staining, cracking, scuffing, and fading can result. Volvo offers an easy-to-use, non-greasy leather care kit formulated to clean and beau- tify your vehicle's leather, and to renew the protective qualities of its finish. The cleaner removes dirt and oil buildup. The light cream protectant restores a barrier against soil and sunlight. Volvo also offers a special leather softener that should be applied after the cleaner and pro- tectant. It leaves leather soft and smooth, and reduces friction between leather and other fin- ishes in the vehicle. Volvo recommends cleaning, protecting and conditioning your vehicle's leather two to four times a year. Ask your Volvo retailer about Leather Care Kit 951 0251 and Leather Soft- ener 943 7429. Cleaning leather upholstery 1. Pour leather cleaner on a damp sponge and squeeze it until the cleaner foams. 2. Apply the foam to the stain by moving the sponge with circular movements. 08 194 3. Dampen the stain thoroughly with the sponge. Let the sponge absorb the stain, do not rub. 4. Dry the stain with soft paper towels or a towel, and allow the leather to dry com- pletely. Protecting leather upholstery 1. Put a small amount of protectant cream on a cloth and apply a thin coating of cream to the upholstery with light circular move- ments. 2. Allow the leather to dry for 20 minutes. This will help the leather resist staining and protect against sunlight's harmful UV rays. 08 Car care Washing and cleaning the car Cleaning floor mats The floor mats should be vacuumed or brushed clean regularly, especially during winter when they should be taken out for drying. Spots on textile mats can be removed with a mild deter- gent. For best protection in winter, Volvo rec- ommends the use of Volvo rubber floor mats. Consult your Volvo retailer. CAUTION • Under no circumstances should gaso- line, naphtha or similar cleaning agents be used on the plastic or the leather since these can cause damage. • Take extra care when removing stains such as ink or lipstick since the coloring can spread. • Use solvents sparingly. Too much sol- vent can damage the seat padding. • Start from the outside of the stain and work toward the center. • Sharp objects (e.g. pencils or pens in a pocket) or Velcro fasteners on clothing may damage the textile upholstery. • Clothing that is not colorfast, such as new jeans or suede garments, may stain the upholstery. Cleaning the seat belts Clean only with lukewarm water and a mild soap solution. 08 195 08 Car care Paint touch up Touching up minor paint damage Paint damage requires immediate attention to avoid rusting. Make it a habit to check the finish regularly - when washing the vehicle for instance. Touch-up if necessary. Paint repairs require special equipment and skill. Contact a trained and authorized Volvo service technician for any extensive damage. Minor scratches can be repaired by using Volvo touch-up paint. Color code Minor stone chips and scratches Material: • Primer – can • Paint – touch-up pen • Brush • Masking tape 08 When ordering touch-up paint from your Volvo retailer, make sure you have the right color. Use the paint code indicated on the model plate (1 in the illustration). 196 NOTE When touching up the vehicle, it should be clean and dry. The surface temperature should be above 60° F (15° C). If the stone chip has not penetrated down to the metal and an undamaged layer of paint remains, the touch-up paint can be applied as soon as the spot has been cleaned. Deep scratches 1. Place a strip of masking tape over the dam- aged surface. Pull the tape off so that any loose flakes of paint adhere to it. 2. Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it with a small brush. When the primer surface is dry, the paint can be applied using a brush. Mix the paint thoroughly; apply several thin paint coats and let dry after each applica- tion. If there is a longer scratch, you may want to protect surrounding paint by masking it off. 3. 08 Car care 08 197 Volvo maintenance................................................................................ 200 Maintaining your car.............................................................................. 202 Hood..................................................................................................... 204 Engine compartment............................................................................. 205 Engine oil............................................................................................... 206 Fluids..................................................................................................... 208 Wiper blades......................................................................................... 210 Battery................................................................................................... 211 Replacing bulbs.................................................................................... 213 Fuses..................................................................................................... 221 198 MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING 09 09 Maintenance and servicing 09 Volvo maintenance General Volvo advises you to follow the maintenance program outlined in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. This mainte- nance program contains inspections and serv- ices necessary for the proper function of your vehicle. The maintenance services contain several checks that require special tools and training, and therefore must be performed by a qualified technician. To keep your Volvo in top condition, specify time-tested and proven Genuine Volvo Parts and Accessories. The Federal Clean Air Act – U.S The Federal Clean Air Act requires vehicle manufacturers to furnish written instructions to the ultimate purchaser to assure the proper servicing and function of the components that control emissions. These services, which are listed in the "Warranty and Service Records Information" booklet, are not covered by the warranty. You will be required to pay for labor and material used. Maintenance Your Volvo passed several major inspections before it was delivered to you, in accordance with Volvo specifications. The maintenance procedures outlined in the Warranty and Serv- ice Records Information booklet, many of which will positively affect your vehicle's emis- sions, should be performed as indicated. It is recommended that receipts for vehicle emis- sion maintenance be retained in case ques- tions arise concerning maintenance. Inspec- tion and maintenance should also be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected. Applicable warranties – U.S/Canada In accordance with applicable U.S. and Cana- dian regulations, the following list of warranties is provided. • New Vehicle Limited Warranty • Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty • Corrosion Protection Limited Warranty • Seat Belt and Supplemental Restraint Sys- tems Limited Warranty • Emission Design and Defect Warranty • Emission Performance Warranty These are the federal warranties; other warran- ties are provided as required by state/provin- cial law. Refer to your separate Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for detailed information concerning each of the warranties. Periodic maintenance helps minimize emissions Periodic maintenance will help keep your vehi- cle running well. Your Warranty and Service Records Information booklet provides a com- prehensive periodic maintenance schedule up to 150,000 miles (240,000 km) of vehicle main- tenance. The schedule includes components that affect vehicle emissions. This page describes some of the emission-related com- ponents. Vehicle Event Data (Black Box) Your vehicle's driving and safety systems employ computers that monitor, and share with each other, information about your vehi- cle's operation. One or more of these comput- ers may store what they monitor, either during normal vehicle operation or in a crash or near- crash event. Stored information may be read and used by: • Volvo Car Corporation • service and repair facilities 200 09 Maintenance and servicing Volvo maintenance 09 • law enforcement or government agencies • others who may assert a legal right to know, or who obtain your consent to know such information. 201 09 Maintenance and servicing 09 Maintaining your car Owner maintenance Periodic maintenance requirements and inter- vals are described in your vehicle's Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenance services. Each time the car is refueled: • Check the engine oil level. • Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and taillights. Monthly: • Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect the tires for wear. • Check that engine coolant and other fluid levels are between the indicated "min" and "max" markings. • Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass cleaner and soft paper towels. • Wipe driver information displays with a soft cloth. • Visually inspect battery terminals for cor- rosion. Corrosion may indicate a loose ter- minal connector, or a battery near the end of its useful service life. Consult a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for additional information. As needed: • Wash the car, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can be caused by a buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can be caused by salt residues. • Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshield, and from other places where they may collect. NOTE Complete service information for qualified technicians is available online for purchase or subscription at www.volvotechinfo.com. Emission inspection readiness What is an Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD II)? OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. It stores diagnos- tic information about your vehicle's emission controls. It can light the Check Engine light (MIL) if it detects an emission control "fault." A "fault" is a component or system that is not performing within an expected range. A fault may be permanent or temporary. OBD II will store a message about any fault. How Do States Use OBD II for Emission Inspections? Many states connect a computer directly to a vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can then read "faults." In some states, this type of inspection has replaced the tailpipe emission test. How Can My Vehicle Fail OBD II Emission Inspection? Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspec- tion for any of the following reasons. • If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, your vehicle may fail inspection. • If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit, but went out without any action on your part, OBD II will still have a recorded fault. Your vehicle may pass or fail, depending on the inspection practices in your area. • If you had recent service that required dis- connecting the battery, OBD II diagnostic information may be incomplete and "not ready" for inspection. A vehicle that is not ready may fail inspection. How Can I Prepare for My Next OBD II Emission Inspection? • If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit – or was lit but went out without service, have 202 09 Maintenance and servicing Maintaining your car 09 your vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary, serviced by a qualified Volvo technician. • If you recently had service for a lit Check Engine light, or if you had service that required disconnecting the battery, a period of driving is necessary to bring the OBD II system to "ready" for inspection. A half-hour trip of mixed stop-and-go/high- way driving is typically needed to allow OBD II to reach readiness. Your Volvo retailer can provide you with more infor- mation on planning a trip. • Maintain your vehicle in accordance with your vehicle's maintenance schedule. 203 09 Maintenance and servicing 09 Hood Opening the hood To open the hood: 1. Pull the lever located under the left side of the dash to release the hood lock. 2. Lift the hood slightly. 3. Press up the release control located under the front edge of the hood (at the center) up to the right, and lift the hood. WARNING Check that the hood locks engage properly when closed. 204 09 Maintenance and servicing Engine compartment 09 Cooling system expansion tank Power steering fluid reservoir (concealed behind the headlight) Dipstick – engine oil Relay/fuse box Air cleaner WARNING The cooling fan may start or continue to operate (for up to 6 minutes) after the engine has been switched off. Radiator Cooling fan Washer fluid reservoir Engine oil filler cap Brake/clutch fluid reservoir Battery 205 09 Maintenance and servicing 09 Engine oil Changing engine oil and oil filter See page 259 for oil specifications. Refer to the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for information on the oil change inter- vals. Volvo recommends Castrol. NOTE • Volvo does not recommend the use of oil additives. • Synthetic oil is not used when the oil is changed at the normal maintenance intervals except at owner request and at additional charge. Please consult a trained and qualified Volvo service tech- nician. Checking and adding oil The oil level should be checked every time the vehicle is refueled. This is especially important during the period up to the first scheduled maintenance service • The car should be parked on a level surface when the oil is checked. • If the engine is warm, wait for at least 10– 15 minutes after the engine has been switched off before checking the oil. 206 Location of dipstick and oil filler cap Checking the oil 1. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a lint- free rag. 2. Reinsert the dipstick, pull it out, and check the oil level. 3. Add oil if necessary. If the level is close to the MIN mark, add approximately 1 US quart (1 liter) of oil. 4. Run the engine until it reaches normal operating temperature. 5. Switch off the engine and wait for at least 10–15 minutes and recheck the oil level. If necessary, add oil until the level is near the MAX mark. CAUTION • Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine damage if the oil level becomes too low. • Oil that is lower than the specified qual- ity can damage the engine. • Always add oil of the same type and viscosity as already used. • Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This could cause an increase in oil consump- tion. WARNING Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into contact with hot exhaust pipe surfaces NOTE Volvo uses different systems to indicate a low oil level or pressure. Some models have an oil pressure sensor, in which case a warning symbol (see page 57) is used to indicate low oil pressure. Other models have an oil level sensor, in which case the driver is alerted by the warning symbol in the cen- ter of the instrument panel and a text in the information display. Some models use both systems. Contact an authorized Volvo retailer for more information. 09 Maintenance and servicing Engine oil 09 207 09 Maintenance and servicing 09 Fluids Washer fluid Coolant Washer fluid reservoir The washer fluid reservoir is located in the engine compartment and holds approximately 6.8 US qts (6.5 liters). During cold weather, the reservoir should be filled with windshield washer solvent containing antifreeze. Coolant reservoir Normally, the coolant does not need to be changed. If the system must be drained, con- sult a trained and qualified Volvo service tech- nician. 208 CAUTION • If necessary, top up the cooling system with Volvo Genuine Coolant/Antifreeze only (a 50/50 mix of water and anti- freeze). • Different types of antifreeze/coolant may not be mixed. • If the cooling system is drained, it should be flushed with clean water or premixed anti-freeze before it is refilled with the correct mixture of water/anti- freeze. • The cooling system must always be kept filled to the correct level, and the level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. If it is not kept filled, there can be high local temperatures in the engine which could result in damage. Check coolant regularly! • Do not top up with water only. This reduces the rust-protective and anti- freeze qualities of the coolant and has a lower boiling point. It can also cause damage to the cooling system if it should freeze. • Do not use chlorinated tap water in the vehicles cooling system. 09 Maintenance and servicing Fluids 09 WARNING Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is warm. Wait until the vehicle cools. If it is necessary to top off the coolant when the engine is warm, unscrew the expansion tank cap slowly so that the overpressure dissipates. Brake fluid Brake fluid reservoir The brake fluid should always be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of the reser- voir. Check, without removing the cap, that there is sufficient fluid in the reservoir. Fluid type: DOT 4+ boiling point >536 °F (280 °C), P/N 9437433 Replace: The fluid should be replaced accord- ing to the intervals specified in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. When driving under extremely hard conditions (mountain driving, etc), it may be necessary to replace the fluid more often. Consult your Volvo retailer. Always entrust brake fluid changing to a trained and qualified Volvo serv- ice technician. Power steering fluid The fluid level is checked at each service inter- val. Fluid type: Volvo power steering fluid or equiv- alent. Replace: No fluid change required. WARNING If a problem should occur in the power steering system or if the vehicle has no elec- trical current and must be towed, it is still possible to steer the vehicle. However, keep in mind that greater effort will be required to turn the steering wheel. 209 09 Maintenance and servicing 09 Wiper blades Replacing windshield wiper blades Liftgate wiper blade 1. Fold out the wiper arm. 2. Press the button on the wiper blade attach- ment and pull straight out (1), parallel with the wiper arm. 3. Press a new wiper blade (2) until it clicks into place. 4. Ensure the blade is securely attached (3). 5. Fold in the wiper arm. The wiper blades are different lengths. The blade on the driver's side is longer than the one on the passenger's side. 210 1. Fold out the wiper arm. 2. Remove the wiper blade by pulling it straight out from the wiper arm. 3. Press the new wiper blade securely into place. Fold in the wiper arm. Keeping the windshield/liftgate window and wiper blades clean helps improve visibility and prolongs the service life of the wiper blades. See page 192 for washing instructions. Battery maintenance Driving habits and conditions, climate, the number of starts, etc., all affect the service life and function of the battery. In order for your battery to perform satisfactorily, keep the fol- lowing in mind: Check the fluid level in each cell in the battery every 24 months or every 15,0001 miles (24,000 km), whichever is sooner. • Use a screw driver to open the caps or cover and a flashlight to inspect the level. • If necessary, add distilled water. The level should never be above the indicator. • The fluid level should be checked if the battery has been recharged. • After inspection, be sure the cap over each battery cell or the cover is securely in place. • Check that the battery cables are correctly connected and properly tightened. • Never disconnect the battery when the engine is running, or when the key is in the ignition. This could damage the vehicle's electrical system. • The battery should be disconnected from the vehicle when a battery charger is used directly on the battery. 1 More frequently in warm climates. 09 Maintenance and servicing WARNING PROPOSITION 65 WARNING!

If an electrical component fails to function, this may be due to a blown fuse. The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it. To do so: 1. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult to remove, special fuse removal tools are located on the inside of the fuse box cov- ers. 2. From the side, examine the curved metal 3. wire in the fuse to see if it is intact. If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse of the same color and amperage (written on the fuse). If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. WARNING Never use metal objects or fuses with higher amperage than those stated on the follow- ing pages. Doing so could seriously damage or overload the vehicle's electrical system.
