173
NOTE
TPMS indicates low tire pressure but does
not replace normal tire maintenance. For
information on correct tire pressure, please
refer to the tables on pages 158 and 159, or
consult your Volvo retailer.Erasing warning messagesWhen a low tire pressure warning message has
been displayed, and the tire pressure warning
light has come on:•
Use a tire pressure gauge to check the
inflation pressure of all four tires.

Re-inflate the tire(s) to the correct pressure
(consult the tire pressure placard or the
tables on pages 158 and 159).

Drive the vehicle for several minutes at a
speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster.
This 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 TPMSPlease 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.

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 a tire is changed or if the TPMS sensor is
moved to another wheel, the sensor’s seal,
nut and valve core should be replaced.
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.

08 Car careWashing and cleaning the vehicle
08176
Washing the vehicle•
The vehicle should be washed at regular
intervals since dirt, dust, insects and tar
spots adhere to the paint and may cause
damage. It is particularly important to wash
the vehicle frequently in the wintertime to
prevent corrosion, when salt has been
used on the roads.

When washing the vehicle, do not expose
it to direct sunlight. Use lukewarm water to
soften the dirt before you wash with a
sponge, and plenty of water, to avoid
scratching.

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 vehicle 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 vehicle 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.CAUTION

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.

Dirt, snow, etc., on the headlights can
reduce lighting capacity considerably.
Clean the headlights regularly, for
example when refueling.

During high pressure washing, the
spray mouthpiece must never be closer
to the vehicle than 13 " (30 cm). Do not
spray into the locks.
Special moonroof cautions:

Always close the moonroof 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.

After cleaning the engine, the spark plug
wells should be inspected for water and
blown dry if necessary.
Suitable detergents: Special vehicle washing
detergents should be used. A suitable mixture
is about 2.5 fl. oz. (8.5 cl) of detergent to 2.6 US
gal. (10 liters) of warm water. After washing
with a detergent the vehicle should be well
rinsed with clean water.
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-
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

designed for this purpose. Consult your Volvo
retailer.Alcantera™ suede-like materialSuede-like upholstery can be cleaned with a
soft cloth and mild soap solution.Leather careVolvo'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 upholstery1. 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.
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 upholstery1. 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.
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.
Chromed wheels: Clean chrome-plated
wheels using the same detergents used for
the body of the vehicle. Aggressive wheel-
cleaning agents can permanently stain
chrome-plated wheels.
Cleaning the seat beltsClean only with lukewarm water and a mild
soap solution.

10 AudioIntroduction
10216
The audio system in your vehicle is operated
with the buttons and knobs in the system's
front panel. Certain functions, such as adjust-
ing the volume, changing radio stations or
tracks on a CD, etc, can also be controlled with
the steering wheel-mounted keypad.
The audio system is available in two versions:HU-650Features: AM/FM radio, single-disc CD player,
4×25W output, six
1 speakers.
HU-850Features: AM/FM radio, integrated 6-disc CD
changer, 4×50W or 4×70W output plus 25W
Dolby Pro Logic II, eleven speakers.Compact disc care•
Keep the discs clean. Wipe them with a
soft, clean, lint-free cloth, working from the
center outwards. If necessary, dampen the
cloth with a neutral soap solution. Dry thor-
oughly before using.

Never use cleaning spray or antistatic liq-
uid. Use only cleaners specifically made for
CDs.

Use discs of the correct size only (3.5"
discs should never be used).

The discs should conform to the norms
EN60908 (IEC60908). CDR discs cancause listening problems due to the quality
of the disc or recording equipment used.

Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself.

Volvo does not recommend the use of
plastic outer rings on the disc.

Condensation may occur on discs/optical
components of the changer in cold winter
weather. The disc can be dried with a
clean, lint-free cloth. Optical components
in the CD changer may, however, take up
to one hour to dry off.

Never attempt to play a disc which is dam-
aged in any way.

When not in use, the discs should be
stored in their covers. Avoid storing discs
in excessive heat, direct sunlight or dusty
locations.
