The screwdriver is combined with the socket wrench. The tools can be alternated by pulling the shaft out of the handle
and re-inserting the opposite end of the shaft into the handle.
Removing the jack
Remove the spare tire out. Loosen the jack slightly by turning the axle (1) and remove it from the retaining clip.
Replacing the jack
Put the jack in the clip and turn axle (1) until the jack is securely in place.
Replace the tools in the same place.
WARNING!
The jack (see the following pages) must be correctly placed in the jack attachment.
Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-slippery surface.
Never allow any part of your body to be extended under a car supported by a jack.
Use the jack intended for the car when replacing a wheel. For any other job, use stands to support the side of the
car being worked on.
Apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in position P.
Block the wheels standing on the ground, use rigid wooden blocks or large stones.
The jack should be kept well-greased.
Use gloves

toward the rear side of the engine.
After cleaning the engine, the spark plug wells should be inspected for water and blown dry if necessary.
Suitable detergents
Special car 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 car should be well rinsed with clean water.
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 may constitute a fire risk.
NOTE: When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills. Painted Bumpers:
Wash the painted bumpers with the same cleaning agent used on the rest of the car. Never clean the bumpers with
gasoline or paint thinner. Difficult spots can be removed with denatured alcohol. To avoid scratches, do not dry the
bumpers with paper.
pg. 104 Automatic car washing, Polishing and waxing
Automatic washing - simple and quick
Brushless car washes are recommended. 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 automatic washers do not have
facilities for washing the underbody.
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. You should also lower the antenna (sedans).
We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the first six months because the paint
will not have hardened sufficiently.
Polishing and waxing
Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery. However, waxing is recommended.
Before applying polish or wax the car 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 polishing of a dull surface.
A wide range of polymer-based car 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.
Note: Machine buffing is not recommended.

The fuel filter should be replaced at 105,000 miles (168,000 km). The filter is replaced as a complete unit. Replace
more frequently if contaminated fuel is introduced into the tank, or if there is reason to suspect that this has occurred.
Fuel system, including filler cap, tank, lines and connections
The ability of the fuel system to contain hydrocarbons depends upon a leak-free system. Inspect fuel lines every
30,000 miles (48,000 km). Check for proper sealing of the fuel filler cap which contains "O" ring seals.
NOTE: If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Check Engine
light (Malfunction indicator) may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only
Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps.
Timing belt
For proper functioning of the vehicle and its emission control systems, the timing belt and belt tensioner must be
replaced every 105,000 miles (168,000 km). Engine damage will occur if the belt fails.
PCV system
(on turbocharged models)
The nipple in the intake manifold and the filter at the end of the PCV hose in the air cleaner should be inspected and
cleaned at 105,000 miles (168,000 km) and thereafter, again at 150,000 mile (240,000 km) intervals.
Spark plugs
The spark plugs should be replaced every 45,000 miles (72,000 km) under normal driving conditions. City driving or
fast highway driving may necessitate replacement sooner.
Under normal driving conditions, spark plugs require no maintenance between replacement intervals. When installing
new plugs, be sure to use the right type and to tighten them correctly. When changing the plugs, clean the terminals
and rubber seals. Also check that the suppressor connectors are in good condition. Cracked or damaged connectors
should be replaced.

Vehicle loading
The tires on your Volvo should perform to specifications at all normal loads when inflated as recommended on the tire
information label. The label is located on the inside of the fuel filler door. The label also lists vehicle load limits. Do
not load your car beyond the indicated limits.
WARNING!
Improperly inflated tires will reduce tire life, adversely affect vehicle handling and can possibly lead to failure
resulting in loss of vehicle control without prior warning.
