Cassettes
l Store cassettes in their cases.
l Do not touch the tape surface
with your fingers.
l Tapes should not be exposed to
direct sunlight or extreme
temperatures.
l Keep tapes away from oil,
grease and other contaminants.
l For optimal tape deck
performance Volvo does not
recommend the use of C-120
tapes.
l Take up slack using a pen or a
pencil before inserting a cassette
in the cassette slot.

Cassette cleaning

We recommend the use of the
Volvo Cleaning Cassette available
as a genuine Volvo accessory.
Regular use improves sound
quality, cleans vital parts and
prevents tape tangle. Compact disc care

l Before using a new disk for the
first time, remove any burrs in the
center/outer edge by running the
stem of a pen or similar object
around the hole/edge of the disc.
l Use high quality discs only.
l Keep the discs clean. Wipe
them with a soft, clean, lint-free
cloth, working from the center
outwards. If necessary, dampen
the cloth with a neutral soap
solution. Dry thoroughly before
using.
l Never use cleaning spray or
antistatic liquid. Use only cleaners
specifically made for CD's.
l Use discs of the correct size
only (3.5" discs should never be
used).
l Do not put tape or labels on the
disc itself.
l Volvo does not recommend the
use of plastic outer rings on the
disc.
l Condensation may occur on
discs/optical components of the
changer in cold winter weather.
The disc can be dried with a clean,
lint-free cloth. Optical
components in the CD changer
may, however, take up to one hour
to dry off.
l Never attempt to play a disc
which is damaged in any way.
l When not in use, the discs
should be stored in their covers.
Avoid storing discs in excessive
heat, direct sunlight or dusty
