See page 190 for information on returning the

On vehicles equipped with the tire sealing sys-
tem, the jack should be cranked down as far as
possible and returned to its storage position in
the foam block.
WARNING
The jack and any tools should always be
returned to their proper storage compart-
ments after use to help keep them securely
in place in the event of sudden braking, etc.

08 Car care
Washing and cleaning the car

204* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
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.
•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 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 visibilityconsiderably 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.
NOTE
When washing the car, remember to remove
dirt from the drain holes in the doors and
sills.
Exterior componentsVolvo 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
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.
Special moonroof cautions:
•Always close the moonroof* and sun
shade before washing your vehicle.
•Never use wax on the rubber seals
around the moonroof.
•Never use abrasive cleaning agents on
the moonroof.

The text LOADING will be displayed while the
system loads the files (folder structure) on the
device. This may take a short time.
When information about the files (the folder
structure) on the device has been loaded, the
resulting list includes information on the artist,
genre and song title.
To navigate in the folder structure, press
ENTER and scroll up and down the folders
using the arrow buttons (on the audio system
control panel or on the steering wheel keypad).
Press the right arrow button to select a folder.
Press the left arrow button to go up a level in
the folder structure. Press ENTER to go down
a level in the folder structure.
Tracks can be selected in two ways:

Turn the Tuning knob (no. 4 in the illustra-
tion on page 246) clockwise or counter-
clockwise.

Use the right or left arrow keys on the nav-
igation control (no. 5 in the illustration on
page 246) to select the desired track. The
arrow keys on the steering wheel keypad
can also be used in the same way.NOTE
The system supports playback of files in the
most common versions of formats such as
mp3, wma, and wav. However, there may be
versions of these formats that the system
does not support.
The system also supports a number of
iPod
Ÿ models produced in 2005 or later.
USB flash driveTo simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is
advisable to only store music files on the drive.
It will take considerably longer for the system
to index the files on the drive if it contains any-
thing other than compatible music files.
NOTE
•The system supports removable media
that uses the USB 2.0 standard and the
FAT32 file system and can index up to
500 folders and a maximum of 64,000
files. The device must have at least 256
Mb of memory.
•When using a longer type of USB flash
drive, connecting it with a USB adapter
cable will help reduce mechanical wear
on the USB socket and the USB flash
drive.
MP3 playerMany MP3 players have a file indexing system
that is not supported by the vehicle's audio
system. In order to use an MP3 player, the sys-
tem must be set to USB Removable device/
Mass Storage Device.
iPodŸ
An iPodŸ receives current and its battery is
charged through the connecting cord. How-
ever, if the iPod's battery is completely
drained, it should be recharged before the
iPodŸ is connected to the audio system.
NOTE
When an iPodŸ is used as a sound source,
the vehicle's audio system has a menu
structure similar to the one in the iPod
Ÿ. See
the iPod's manual for detailed information.
For further information, refer to the accessory
manual USB/iPodŸ Music Interface.
