Heated rear window/sideview mirrors
This function demists/de-ices the rear window and  sideview mirrors.  The LED  in the switch will light up to indicate
that the heating  function is engaged. See  page 36 
for additional information on this  function.
CAUTION:
Never  use ice scrapers made of metal as they can easily scratch the mirror surface.

Recirculation (see also page 47)
Press this  switch to engage the recirculation function (air in the passenger  compartment recirculates - no fresh air
enters the compartment). The LED  in the switch will light up to indicate that the function is engaged.
Use this  function if the outside air is contaminated with exhaust gases, smoke, etc or to heat/cool the car quickly.
Recirculation should not be  used for more than 15 minutes. If your windows begin to fog or mist, make sure that the
recirculation function is switched off.
Selecting Defroster automatically  switches  recirculation off.
Timer mode activation:  (Cars with Interior Air Quality system have no timer mode) Press and  hold the recirculation
button for at least 3 seconds to activate a  recirculation timer mode. The amber LED  in the recirculation button will
flash  5 times to show that the timer mode is being activated. In the time mode, each time the recirculation button is
pressed, the climate  control system will recirculate the air in the passenger  compartment for 5 to 12 minutes, depending
on the outside air and  then revert back to fresh air.
Timer mode deactivation:  Press and  hold the recirculation button for at least 3 seconds. The amber LED  in the
recirculation button will illuminate steadily for 5 seconds to show a  return to "normal" mode.
 In normal mode, when the recirculation button is pressed, the climate  control system will recirculate the air in the
passenger  compartment until the recirculation button is pressed again.
Timer mode memory:  If the car is turned off while timer mode is active, timer mode will still  be  active when the
car is restarted.

Heated rear window/sideview mirrors
This function demists/de-ices the rear window and  sideview mirrors.  The LED  in the switch will light up to indicate
that the heating  function is engaged. See  page 36 
for additional information on this  function.
CAUTION:
Never  use ice scrapers made of metal as they can easily scratch the mirror surface.  
Recirculation
Recirculation can be  used to shut out stale air, exhaust, etc. from  the passenger  compartment. The air in the passenger
compartment is then recirculated, i. e.  no air from  outside the car is taken into the car when this  function is activated.
Recirculation (together with the air conditioning system) cools the passenger  compartment more quickly in warm
weather.
If you allow the air in the car to recirculate, there is a  risk of icing and  fogging, especially in winter. The timer function
minimizes the risk of ice, misting  and  stale air. 
Activate the timer function as follows:
 Press  for more that 3 seconds. the LED  flashes for 5 seconds. the air recirculates in the car for 3-12 minutes
depending on the outside temperature.
 The timer function is activated each time you press . 
To switch off the timer function :
Press  again for more than 3 seconds. The LED  lights for 5 seconds to confirm your selection.
Recirculation is always disconnected when you select Defroster 
.

pg. 115 Fuses  in  the cargo area
Fuses in the cargo area
The fuses in the cargo area are located on the trim on the left-hand  side. When replacing a  blown fuse, be  sure to
replace  it with a  new one  of the same color and  amperage  (written on the fuse).

spray into the locks.
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.
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. Mix according  to manufacturer's instructions. Bumpers:
The bumpers  are painted.  Wash the 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.
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.
pg. 124 Washing the car, Cleaning the upholstery
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 sufficiently).
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.
Polishing and waxing
Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery. However, waxing  may be  beneficial.
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.
Do not polish  or wax your car in direct sunlight (the surface  of the car should not be  warmer than 113° F (45° C).
Cleaning the upholstery
The fabric  can be  cleaned 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.
The plastic  in the upholstery can be  cleaned with a  soft cloth and  mild soap solution.
Leather upholstery/suede-like upholstery (alcanteraª)  can be  cleaned with a  soft cloth and  mild soap solution. For
more difficult spots, Volvo offers a  leather care kit.
Under no circumstances should gasoline,  naphtha or  similar cleaning agents be used  on the plastic or  the
