warning light VOLVO XC90 2007 Service Manual

2007 Volvo XC90
WARNING!
l When the vehicle is driven immediately after being washed, apply the bra\
kes 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.
Automatic washing - simple and quick
l We do NOT recommend washing your vehicle in an automatic wash during the\
first six months
(because the paint will not have hardened sufficiently).
l An automatic wash is a simple and quick way to clean your vehicle, but i\
t is worth remembering that
it may not be as thorough as when you yourself go over the vehicle 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 car wash, make sure that side view mirr\
ors, auxiliary lamps, etc, are
secure, and that any antenna(s) are retracted or removed. Otherwise th\
ere is risk of the machine
dislodging them.
Exterior lighting
Condensation may form temporarily on the inside of the lenses of exterio\
r lights such as headlights, fog
lights, or tail lights. This is normal and the lights are designed to wi\
thstand moisture. Normally,
condensation will dissipate after the lights have been on for a short ti\
me.
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 vehicle must be washed and dried. Tar \
spots 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 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.
l Do not polish or wax your vehicle in direct sunlight (the surface of th\
e vehicle should not be warmer
than 113° F (45° C).

NOTE: After the battery has been disconnected or replaced, lock and unlock th\
e vehicle with the central
locking system's remote control to reactivate such features as the power\
windows, moonroof, courtesy
lighting, etc.
WARNING!
Ventilation hose:
l The battery generates hydrogen gas, which is flammable and explosive. Th\
e battery is fitted with a
ventilation hose which vents hydrogen gas out of the battery compartment\
through a ventilation
opening in the bottom of this compartment. If the battery must be replac\
ed, it is essential that the
ventilation hose is properly connected to the battery and that it is rou\
ted through the ventilation
opening provided (see illustration).
l Be sure the ventilation hose is free of debris.
l Only use replacement batteries equipped with a ventilation hose. Consult\
your Volvo retailer.

Replacing bulbs
When replacing bulbs, keep the following points in mind:
l Never touch the glass of bulbs with your fingers. Grease and oils from y\
our fingers vaporize in the
heat and will leave a deposit on the reflector, which will damage it.
l The optional Active Bi-Xenon headlight bulbs contain trace amounts of me\
rcury. These bulbs should
always be disposed of by an authorized Volvo retailer.
l The following bulbs should only be replaced by a trained and qualified V\
olvo service technician:
- Active Bi-Xenon headlights,
- Courtesy (dome) lighting,
- Reading lights,
- Glove compartment lights
- Turn signals and courtesy lights in the side door mirrors
- High-mounted brake lights

- 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 place\
ment questions, contact
HomeLink® toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet:
www.HomeLink.com).
- Using two hands, push and hold both your hand-held transmitter's butto\
n and the transceiver button
you wish to program. The indicator light will flash first slowly, then r\
apidly. Rapid flashing tells you the
HomeLink® button has been successfully programmed. Release both butto\
ns.
- If you are programming a rolling code-equipped device (e.g., garage d\
oor opener or entry door lock),
refer to "Programming rolling codes" on the next page to complete the pr\
ogramming process.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 to program the other two transceiver buttons.
If, after several attempts, you are unable to successfully train the Hom\
eLink® Universal Transceiver to
learn your hand-held transmitter's signal, contact HomeLink® toll-fre\
e 1-800-355-3515 (Internet:
www.
HomeLink.com).

HomeLink® Universal Transceiver
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 th\
at cannot "detect" an
object, signalling the door to "stop" and "reverse" does not meet curren\
t 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).
NOTE: Canadian residents:
During programming, your hand-held transmitter may automatically stop tr\
ansmitting. To successfully
train HomeLink®, continue to hold the HomeLink® button. At the sam\
e time, repeatedly press and hold
your handheld transmitter's button at two-second intervals until HomeLin\
k® has learned your
transmitter's code. The HomeLink® indicator light will flash first sl\
owly, and then rapidly to indicate
that the button has been successfully programmed.
