LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT
* Option/accessory.587
WARNINGIn a head-on collision at a speed of 50 km/h
(30 mph), an unsecured object weighing 20
kg (44 pounds) can reach a projectile weight
equivalent to 1000 kg (2200 pounds).
WARNING
If objects are loaded higher than the upper
edge of the side windows, leave a 10 cm (4
in.) space between the objects and the win-
dow. Objects placed closer to this could
impede the function of the inflatable curtain
concealed inside the headlining.
WARNING
Always secure the load. Otherwise, it may shift
during heavy braking and injure people in the
vehicle.
Cover sharp edges and sharp corners with
something soft.
Turn off the engine and apply the parking
brake when loading/unloading long objects.
Otherwise, it is possible for the load to reach
the gear lever or gear selector and move it to
a drive position – which could cause the vehi-
cle to begin rolling.
Extra cargo space
The rear seat backrests can be folded down to
increase cargo compartment space and simplify
loading. If the rear seat backrests are folded down, make sure that no objects loaded into the
vehicle prevent the WHIPS system for the front
seats from functioning correctly.
Raising/lowering the rear end of the
vehicle*
The rear end of the vehicle can be lowered or
raised for easier loading or to facilitate attaching
a trailer*.
The controls for raising/lowering are located at
the rear edge of the cargo compartment's right
side panel. Controls for raising/lowering the rear end of the vehicle.
The controls consist of two buttons ‒ one button
for lowering and one button for raising the rear
end. Press and hold the relevant button until the
desired height is reached.
The rear end of the vehicle cannot be raised
higher than its normal height. The rear end will return to the normal height
when the vehicle begins driving.
NOTE It is not possible to adjust the height of the
vehicle's rear when one or more of the doors
or the hood is open. This does not apply to
the tailgate.
WARNING
Make sure that no people, animals or objects
are found under the vehicle when it is low-
ered. This could endanger life and cause
damage to the vehicle or objects.

588 Roof loads and load carriers
Volvo-developed load carriers are recommended
for carrying loads on the roof of the vehicle.
Volvo load carriers are specially designed to help
prevent damage to your vehicle and help ensure
maximum safety while driving. Volvo load carriers
are available from authorized Volvo retailers.
Carefully follow the installation instructions provi-
ded with the load carriers.
•
Check periodically to ensure that the load
carriers and load are properly secured.
Secure the load firmly using tie straps or
similar.
• Distribute the load evenly throughout the
load carriers. Place heavier cargo at the bot-
tom of the load.
• The vehicle's wind resistance and fuel con-
sumption increase with the size of the load.
• Drive smoothly. Avoid rapid acceleration, hard
braking and fast cornering.
WARNING The vehicle's center of gravity and driving
characteristics are altered by roof loads.
Follow the vehicle's specifications regarding
weights and maximum permitted load.

compartment.
On the sides of the cargo compartment
There are two fold-out holders in the side panels,
one on each side of the cargo compartment.
CAUTION
The grocery bag holders are only intended to

||MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
640
•
Wash using a sponge, car washing detergent
and plenty of lukewarm water.
• Clean the wiper blades with lukewarm soap
solution or car washing detergent.
• Dry the vehicle using a clean, soft chamois or
a squeegee. Try not to let drops of water dry
in strong sunlight. This could cause water
drying stains that may need to be polished
out.
• In areas with heavy industrial emissions,
more frequent washing of the vehicle's exte-
rior is recommended.
• Tar spots from asphalt may remain even after
washing. Use a tar remover to remove these
spots after washing the vehicle.
WARNING Always entrust engine washing to a workshop.
If the engine is hot, there is a risk of fire.
CAUTION
Dirty headlights do not work as well. Clean
them regularly, e.g. when refueling.
Do not use corrosive cleaners. Use water and
a non-abrasive sponge.
NOTE Exterior lighting such as headlights and tail-
lights may develop temporary condensation
on the inside of the lens. This is normal. All
exterior lighting is designed to resist this.
Condensation is normally vented out of the
lamp housing once the light has been lit for
some period of time.
CAUTION
•
Make sure that the panoramic roof and
sun shade are closed before washing the
vehicle.
• Never use abrasive polishing agents on
the panoramic roof.
• Never use wax on the rubber seals
around the panoramic roof.
CAUTION Remember to remove dirt from the drain
holes in the doors and sills after washing the
vehicle.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
* Option/accessory.643
Cleaning exterior plastic, rubber and
trim components
The vehicle should be washed as soon as it
becomes dirty. This makes the vehicle easier to
clean because dirt does not attach as strongly. It
also reduces the risk of scratches and keeps the
vehicle looking new. Wash the vehicle in a car
wash or garage with an oil separator. Use a car
washing detergent.
Exterior plastic, rubber and trim
components
A special cleaning agent available from Volvo
retailers is recommended for the cleaning and
care of colored plastic parts, rubber and trim
components, e.g. glossy trim. Follow the usage
instructions for the cleaning agent carefully.
Avoid using car washing detergents with a pH
value lower than 3.5 or higher than 11.5. Doing
so could result in the discoloring of anodized alu-
minum surfaces* (as shown in the illustrations
below). Abrasive polishing agents are not recom-
mended for these areas (as shown in the illustra-
tions below). Components that should be washed with a cleaning
product with a pH value between 3.5 and 11.5.
CAUTION
Avoid waxing and polishing plastic and rubber.
If using degreaser on plastic and rubber, only
rub (if necessary) with slight pressure. Use a
soft sponge.
Polishing glossy trim moldings can wear away
or damage the glossy surface layer.
Polish containing abrasives must not be used.
CAUTION Avoid washing the vehicle with cleaner with a
pH value below 3.5 or above 11.5. This could
cause discoloration of anodized aluminum
components like the roof rail and around the
side windows.
Never use metal polishing agent on anodized
aluminum components. This could cause dis-
coloration and destroy the surface treatment.
