gasoline or paint thinner. Difficult spots can be removed with denatured alcohol. To avoid scratches, do not dry the

pg. 111 Automatic car washing, Polishing and waxing
Automatic washing simple and quick
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. You should also lower the antenna by turning off the radio.
We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the first six months (because the paint
will not have hardened sufficiently).
Cleaning the convertible top - C70 Convertible
CAUTION:
Some automatic car washes can damage the convertible top. For this reason, we recommend washing the car by
hand only.
Remember that the windows are lowered slightly when the convertible top is raised. Be sure the windows are closed
and the convertible top is completely raised and properly in place at the upper edge of the windshield before washing
the car. A chime indicates when the top has been fully raised (see page 44
).
Wash the convertible top with a mild detergent, wiping from the front towards the rear. Rinse thoroughly with clean
water.
Do not wash the convertible top with a high pressure spray.
After washing, the convertible top should be completely dry before it is folded down.
Remove bird droppings from the convertible top as soon as possible. Otherwise the top may be permanently stained.
A soft brush can be used to clean the convertible top between washings.
Winter: remove any residue of road salt from the convertible top as soon as possible.
Do not use solvents, tar remover or other all-purpose stain removers to clean the convertible top. Use Volvo
approved cleaning agents only - consult your Volvo retailer.
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 a dull surface.

pg. 194 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.
Release the buttons.
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

The programmed button on your HomeLink® Universal Transceiver should now operate your garage door opener. The
original hand -held transmitter can also be used, as desired, to operate the garage door.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. 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 is continued on the next page)
pg. 196 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 the 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 begin to 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 (i.e., if you purchase a new car).
· It is also suggested that if you sell your car, the programmed channels on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver be
erased for security purposes.
