Introduction
The audio system in your vehicle 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, four
1 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
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). CDR discs can cause listening problems due to the
quality of the disc or recording equipment used.
ProCarManuals.com
DualDisc: The audio side of a DualDisc (combined CD/DVD) does not meet CD specifications and may not play in
your audio system.
Do not put tape or labels on the disc itself.
Volvo does not recommend the use of plastic outer rings on the disc.
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.
Never attempt to play a disc which is damaged in any way.
When not in use, the discs should be stored in their covers. Avoid storing discs in excessive heat, direct sunlight or
dusty locations.
