Three way catalytic converter
Three-way catalytic converter cautions
Keep your engine properly tuned. Certain engine malfunctions, particularly involving the electrical, fuel or
distributor ignition systems, may cause unusually high three-way catalytic converter temperatures. Do not continue to
operate your vehicle if you detect engine misfire, noticeable loss of power or other unusual operating conditions, such
as engine overheating or backfiring. A properly tuned engine will help avoid malfunctions that could damage the three-
way catalytic converter.
Do not park your car over combustible materials, such as grass or leaves, which can come into contact with the hot
exhaust system and cause such materials to ignite under certain wind and weather conditions.
Excessive starter cranking (in excess of one minute), or an intermittently firing or flooded engine can cause three-
way catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating.
Remember that tampering or unauthorized modifications to the engine, the Electronic Control Module, or the vehicle
may be illegal and can cause three-way catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating. This includes:
- Altering fuel injection setting or components.
- Altering emission system components or location or removing components.
- Repeated use of leaded fuel.
NOTE: Unleaded fuel is required for cars with three-way catalytic converters.

Introduction
The audio system in your car is operated with the buttons and knobs in the system's front panel. Certain functions,
such as adjusting the volume, changing radio stations or tracks on a CD, etc, can also be controlled with the optional
steering wheel-mounted keypad.
The audio system is available in two versions:
HU-650
Features: AM/FM radio, single-disc CD player, 4x25W output, six speakers.
HU-850
Features: AM/FM radio, integrated 6-disc CD changer, 4x50W or 4x70W output plus 25W Dolby Pro Logic II, eleven
speakers. A subwoofer mounted under the floor in the cargo area is available as an option. Consult your Volvo retailer.
Compact disc care
Before using a new disc 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.
Use high quality discs only.
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.
Never use cleaning spray or antistatic liquid. Use only cleaners specifically made for CDs.
Use discs of the correct size only (3.5" discs should never be used). The discs should conform to the norms
EN60908 (IEC60908).
Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself.
