These bulbs may be difficult for you to replace yourself. We recommend that you let an authorized Volvo retailer
replace these bulbs if necessary.
pg. 141 Replacing bulbs
Door step courtesy lights
The door step courtesy lights are located under the dash on the driver's and passenger's sides. To replace a bulb:
1. Carefully insert a screwdriver and pry out the lens.
2. Replace the defective bulb.
3. Reinstall the lens.
Rear reading lights
These bulbs may be difficult for you to replace yourself. We recommend that you let an authorized Volvo retailer
replace these bulbs if necessary.
NOTE: Other bulbs may be difficult for you to replace yourself. Let an authorized Volvo retailer replace these bulbs if
necessary.
pg. 142 Paint touch up
Paint touch-up
Paint damage requires immediate attention to avoid rusting. Make it a habit to check the finish regularly - when
washing the car for instance. Touch-up if necessary.
Paint repairs require special equipment and skill. Contact your Volvo retailer for any extensive damage.
Minor scratches can be repaired by using Volvo touch-up paint.

NOTE: When ordering touch-up paint from your Volvo retailer, use the paint code indicated on the model plate. The
plate is located in the engine compartment.
Minor stone chips and scratches
Material:
Primer - can
Paint - touch-up bottle
Brush
Masking tape
NOTE: When touching up the car, it should be clean and dry. The surface temperature should be above 60° F (15° C).
Minor scratches on the surface
If the stone chip has not penetrated down to the metal and an undamaged layer of paint remains, the touch-up paint can
be applied as soon as the spot has been cleaned.
Deep scratches
1. Place a strip of masking tape over the damaged surface. Pull the tape off so that any loose flakes of paint adhere to
it.
2. Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it with a small brush.
When the primer surface is dry, the paint can be applied using a brush. Mix the paint thoroughly; apply several thin
paint coats and let dry after each application.
3. If there is a longer scratch, you may want to protect surrounding paint by masking it off.
pg. 143 Washing the car
Washing the car
The car 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 car frequently in the wintertime to prevent corrosion, when salt has
been used on the roads.
When washing the car, 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.

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).
CAUTION:
Volvo does not recommend the use of long-life or durable paint protection coatings, some of which may claim to
prevent pitting, fading, oxidation, etc. These coatings have not been tested by Volvo for compatibility with your
vehicle's clear coat. Some of them may cause the clear coat to soften, crack, or cloud. Damage caused by application
of paint protection coatings may not be covered under your vehicle's paint warranty.
pg. 145 Cleaning the upholstery
Fabric
Clean 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.
Plastic
The plastic in the upholstery can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution.
Alcantera™ suede-like material
Suede -like upholstery can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution.
Leather care
Volvo'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 beautify 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 protectant. It leaves leather soft
and smooth, and reduces friction between leather and other finishes 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 Softener 943 7429.
CAUTION!
Under no circumstances should gasoline, 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 solvent can damage the seat padding.

HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
pg. 186 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
HomeLink® is an advanced system that can be programmed to learn the codes of three different remote controlled-
devices (e.g., garage door openers, remote lighting, entry door lock). HomeLink®'s sun visor-mounted transceiver,
powered by your car's electrical system, may then be used in place of your hand -held remote controls.
NOTE: For your security, the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver is designed to not function if you lock your car
from the outside .
Programming the transceiver
1. The ignition switch must be turned to the "accessory" position (II) before programming the HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver.
2. Begin by erasing all 3 factory default channels. Hold down the two outside buttons (buttons 1 and 3 in the
illustration) on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until HomeLink®'s indicator light begins
to flash. Then release the buttons.
3. Hold your hand -held transmitter (garage door opener, for example) 2 to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from the
HomeLink® surface, keeping the indicator light in view. For placement questions, contact HomeLink® toll-free 1-
800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
4. Using two hands, push and hold both your hand -held transmitter's button and the transceiver button you wish to
program. The indicator light will flash first slowly, then rapidly. Rapid flashing tells you the HomeLink® button has
ProCarManuals.com
Page 125 of 139
been successfully programmed. Release both buttons.
5. If you are programming a rolling code-equipped device (e.g., garage door opener or entry door lock), refer to
"Programming rolling codes" on the next page to complete the programming process.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 to program the other two transceiver buttons.
If, after several attempts, you are unable to successfully train the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver to learn your
hand -held transmitter's signal, contact HomeLink® toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
WARNING!
If you use HomeLink® to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is in motion.
Do not use the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks safety "stop" and
"reverse" features as required by federal safety standards. (This includes any garage door opener model
manufactured before April 1, 1982) A garage door opener that cannot "detect" an object, signalling the door to
"stop" and "reverse" does not meet current federal safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these
features increases the risk of serious injury or death. For more information on this matter, call toll-free 1-800-355-
3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
pg. 187 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
NOTE - Canadian residents:
During programming, your hand -held transmitter may automatically stop transmitting. To successfully train
HomeLink®, continue to hold the HomeLink® button. At the same time, repeatedly press and hold your hand -held
transmitter's button at two -second intervals until HomeLink® has learned your transmitter's code. The HomeLink®
indicator light will flash first slowly, and then rapidly to indicate that the button has been successfully programmed.
Determining if your garage door uses a rolling code
Determine, in one of the following ways, if your garage door uses a rolling code system and is manufactured after
1996:
Refer to the garage door opener owner's manual for verification.
If your hand -held transmitter appears to program the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver but the programmed button
does not activate the garage door, your garage door opener may have a rolling code.
Press the programmed HomeLink® button. If the garage door opener has the rolling code feature, the HomeLink®
indicator light flashes rapidly and then glows steadily after approximately 2 seconds.
To train a rolling code garage door opener, follow these instructions after programming the desired transceiver
button according to "Programming the transceiver." The help of a second person may make training easier.
1. Locate the training button on the garage door opener motor head unit . The location and color of the training button
may vary. If you encounter difficulty, refer to the garage door opener owner's manual or call toll-free 1-800-355-3515
(Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
2. Press the "training" button on the garage door opener motor head unit until the "training" light comes on.
3. Press and release the programmed HomeLink® button. Press and release the programmed HomeLink® button a
second time to complete the training process. Some garage door openers may require you to do this procedure a third
time to complete the training.
The programmed button on your HomeLink® Universal Transceiver should now operate your garage door opener. The
ProCarManuals.com
Page 126 of 139
original hand -held transmitter can also be used, as desired, to operate the garage door.
The remaining two HomeLink® buttons can be programmed in the same way. In the event of any problems in
programming the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver, call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet: www.HomeLink.com
).
Operating the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver can be used in place of your hand -held transmitters.
To operate, the key must be turned to the "accessory" position (II) or the engine must be running. Press the
programmed HomeLink® button to activate the garage door, driveway gate, security lighting, home security system,
etc.
Your original hand -held transmitters may, of course, be used at any time.
Erasing programmed buttons
Individual buttons cannot be erased. To erase all three programmed buttons:
1. Turn the ignition key to the "accessory" position (II).
2. Hold down the two outside buttons on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 20 seconds, until
HomeLink®'s indicator light begins to flash.
3. Release both buttons.
The HomeLink® buttons can be reprogrammed using the procedures described on the previous page.
(HomeLink® information continues on the next page)
pg. 188 HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
Reprogramming a single HomeLink® button
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink® button. Do not release the button until step 3 has been completed.
2. When the indicator light begins to flash slowly (after approximately 20 seconds), position your hand -held
transmitter 2 to 5 in. (5 to 12 cm) away from the HomeLink® surface.
3. Press and hold the hand -held transmitter button. The HomeLink® indicator light will flash first slowly, then rapidly.
When the indicator light flashes rapidly, release both buttons.
The previously programmed device has now been erased and the new device can be activated by pressing the
HomeLink® button that has just been programmed. This procedure will not affect any other programmed HomeLink®
buttons.
NOTE:
Retain the original transmitter(s) for future programming procedures (e.g., if you purchase a new car).
For your own security, erase all programmed buttons on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver when you sell your
car.
Metallic sun protection films should not be used on any windows in a car equipped with HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver. This could interfere with the transceiver's function.
