General information
Important
Before you operate your car for the first time please familiarize yourself  with the engine oil consumption
information and refueling recommendations on pages 62 and 63
. You should also be familiar  with the
information in the first four chapters of this manual.
Information contained in the balance of the manual is extremely useful and should be read  after operating the
vehicle  for the first time.
The manual is structured so that it can be used  for reference. For this reason, it should be kept in the car for
ready  access.
Do not export your Volvo to another country before investigating  that country's applicable safety and exhaust
emission requirements. In  some cases it may be difficult or  impossible  to comply with these requirements.
Modifications to the emission control system(s)  may render your Volvo not certifiable for legal operation in the
U.S., Canada and other countries.
All information, illustrations and specifications contained in this manual are based  on the latest product
information available at the time of publication. Please note that some vehicles may be equipped  differently,
depending  on special legal requirements and that optional  equipment described in this manual may not be

pg. 130 Anti -theft code - HU-415 and HU-615
Anti-theft code
The radio features anti-theft circuitry. If the set is removed from  the vehicle or if the battery power is disconnected, a
special code must  be  entered  to enable operation of the set. 
Your Volvo retailer will supply you with this code.
NOTE: Volvo recommends that you store  the radio code in a  safe place.
A red LED  will flash  when the key  had  been removed from the ignition to confirm that the anti-theft circuitry has
been activated.
To enter the code
After installation  or when the set has been disconnected from  power, the set displays "input CODE ****" when it is
switched on.
Enter the 4-digit code using the 1-20/DISC  knob. Select  a  number for a  digit by rotating the 1-20/DISC  knob. And
then push the knob to enter the number. Repeat the procedure for all 4 digits.
If the correct code is entered  the set is ready to use.
If you enter an  incorrect code you must  enter the correct code again from  the beginning.
Incorrect code
ProCarManuals.com 

If an  incorrect code has been entered  "Error" is displayed. Enter the correct code. After three unsuccessful coding
attempts the set will lock and  remain locked for two hours.
"OFF" is displayed. 
During this waiting period:
 the battery must  be  connected
 the ignition key  must  be  turned to position I
the unit must  be  turned on
Make sure the headlights are turned off to help prevent battery drain.
Enter the code again once 2 hours have elapsed.
