Remote keyless entry system
Your car is equipped with a remote control transmitter. This transmitter\
uses a radio frequency which
will allow "keyless" entry into the passenger compartment or the tailgat\
e. Your car is supplied with two
coded key ring transmitters, which will enable you to lock/ unlock all d\
oors and the tailgate from a
distance of 10-15 feet (3-5 meters). The remote transmitter will also \

NOTE: During a transitional period, a small number of service stations may sti\
ll have fuel nozzles that
are not compatible with the fuel filler neck on cars equipped with the e\
vaporative control system. Please
refer to
page 130 for additional information.
CAUTION:
l Do not refuel with the engine running *. Turn the ignition off or to pos\
ition I. If the ignition is on, an
incorrect reading could occur in the fuel gauge.
l After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until\
it clicks into place *.
l Allow for fuel expansion by not overfilling the tank. Overfilling could \
also cause damage to the
emission control systems.
l Avoid spilling gasoline when refueling. In addition to causing damage to\
the environment, gasolines
containing alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which may not b\
e covered under the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
l Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol)\
. This practice can result in
vehicle performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the f\
uel system. Such damage may
not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
* If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is runni\
ng when the car is refueled, the Check
Engine light (malfunction indicator lamp) may indicate a fault. Howeve\
r, your vehicle's performance
will not be affected. Use only Volvo original or approved fuel filler ca\
ps.

Suitable detergents: Special car washing detergents should be used. Mix according to manufac\
turer's
instructions.
Bumpers: The bumpers are painted. Wash the bumpers with the same cleaning agent u\
sed on the rest of
the car. Never clean the bumpers with gasoline or paint thinner. Difficu\
lt spots can be removed with
denatured alcohol. To avoid scratches, do not dry the bumpers with paper\
. WARNING!
l When the car is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brakes \
several times in order to
remove any moisture from the brake linings.
l Engine cleaning agents should not be used when the engine is warm. This \
constitutes a fire risk.


pg. 128 Washing the car, Cleaning the upholstery
Automatic washing - simple and quick
l We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the fir\
st six months
(because the paint will not have hardened sufficiently).
l 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 important, especially in the winter. Some automa\
tic washers do not have
facilities for washing the underbody.
l Before driving into an automatic wash, make sure that side view mirrors,\
auxiliary lamps, etc, are
secure, otherwise there is risk of the machine dislodging them.
Polishing and waxing
l Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery\
. However, waxing may be
beneficial.
l Before applying polish or wax the car must be washed and dried. Tar spot\
s can be removed with
kerosene or tar remover. Difficult spots may require a fine rubbing comp\
ound.
l After polishing, use liquid or paste wax.
l Several commercially available products contain both polish and wax.
l Waxing alone does not substitute for polishing of a dull surface.
l A wide range of polymer-based car waxes can be purchased today. These wa\
xes are easy to use and
produce a long-lasting, high-gloss finish that protects the bodywork aga\
inst oxidation, road dirt and
fading.

pg. 163 Dolby Surround Pro Logic HU-803 (option)
Dolby Surround Pro Logic (HU-803 only)
During CD playback, Dolby Surround Pro Logic, together with the speaker \
in the center of the
dashboard, offers you very clear and realistic sound.
The Dolby unit divides the normal stereo channels from left - right to l\
eft - center - right. In addition,
ambient surround sound is produced by the rear speakers. This ambient su\
rround sound mirrors the
resonance of a recording studio.
Most recordings today are made so that the vocalist/soloist is heard fro\
m the center foreground while the
orchestra is heard over the entire left-right panorama as well as from b\
ehind. This enables the Dolby
Surround Pro Logic system to provide a unique listening experience.
Dolby Surround Pro Logic
To select Dolby Surround Pro Logic during CD playback, press " PL". "Dolby Pro Logic" is
displayed. Press "OFF" to return to 2 channel stereo.
