8 Introduction
Important warnings
Accessory Installation
l We strongly recommend that Volvo owners install only genuine, Volvo-appr\
oved accessories, and that accessory installations be
performed only by the factory-trained technicians at your authorized Vol\
vo retailer.
l Genuine Volvo accessories are tested to ensure compatibility with the pe\
rformance, safety, and emission systems in your car.
Additionally, your authorized Volvo retailer knows where accessories may\
and may not be safely installed in your Volvo. In all cases,
please consult your authorized Volvo retailer before installing any acce\
ssory in or on your car.
l Accessories that have not been approved by Volvo may or may not be speci\
fically tested for compatibility with your car. Additionally,
an inexperienced installer may not be familiar with some of your car's s\
ystems.
l Any of your car's performance and safety systems could be adversely affe\
cted if you install accessories that Volvo has not tested, or if
you allow accessories to be installed by someone unfamiliar with your ca\
r.
l Damage caused by unapproved or improperly installed accessories may not \
be covered by your new car warranty. See your Warranty
and Service Records Information booklet for more warranty information. V\
olvo assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses
that may result from the installation of non-genuine accessories.
Driver distraction
Driver distraction results from driver activities that are not directly \
related to controlling the car in the driving environment. Your new
Volvo is, or can be, equipped with many feature-rich entertainment and c\
ommunication systems. These include hands-free cellular
telephones, navigation systems, and multipurpose audio systems. You may \
also own other portable electronic devices for your own
convenience. When used properly and safely, they enrich the driving expe\
rience. Improperly used, any of these could cause a distraction.
For all of these systems, we want to provide the following warning that \
reflects the strong Volvo concern for your safety:
l Never use these devices or any feature of your vehicle in a way that dis\
tracts you from the task of driving safely. Distraction can lead to
a serious accident.In addition to this general warning, we offer the fol\
lowing guidance regarding specific newer features that may be found
in your vehicle:
l Never use a hand-held cellular telephone while driving. Some jurisdictio\
ns prohibit cellular telephone use by a driver while the vehicle
is moving.
l If your car is equipped with a navigation system, set and make changes t\
o your travel itinerary only with the vehicle parked.
l Never program your audio system while the vehicle is moving. Program rad\
io presets with the vehicle parked, and use your
programmed presets to make radio use quicker and simpler.
l Never use portable computers or personal digital assistants while the ve\
hicle is moving.
A driver has a responsibility to do everything possible to ensure his or\
her own safety and the safety of passengers in the vehicle and
others sharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions is part of that respon\
sibility.
