ized Volvo retailer
replace these bulbs if necessary.
pg. 205 Maintenance and servicing
Fuses
Replacing fuses
If an electrical component fails to function, it is possible that a fuse\
has blown.
Fuses are located in four different places:
1. Relays/fuse box in the engine compartment
2. Fuse box in the passenger compartment, behind plastic cover
3. Fuse box in the passenger compartment, on the edge of the dashboard
4. Fuse box in the cargo area
A label on the inside of each cover indicates the amperage and the elect\
rical components that are
connected to each fuse.
The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it. Pull the fuse\
straight out. If a fuse is difficult to
remove, you will find a special fuse removal tool (and several extra fu\
ses) in the passenger compartment
fuse box on the driver's end of dashboard. From the side, examine the cu\
rved metal wire (see next page)
to see if it is broken. If so, put in a new fuse of the same color and amperage (written on the fuse).
Spare fuses are stored in the fuse box in the passenger compartment. If \
fuses burn out repeatedly, have
the electrical system inspected by an authorized Volvo retailer.
WARNING!
Never use fuses with higher amperage than those stated on the following \
pages. Doing so could
overload the vehicle's electrical system.

WARNING!
The distributor ignition system operates at very high voltages. Special \
safety precautions must be
followed to prevent injury. Always turn the ignition off when:
l Replacing distributor ignition components e.g. plugs, coil, etc.
l Do not touch any part of the distributor ignition system while the engin\

Engine specifications
1. Automatic transmission: 220 kW at 100 rps, 300 hp at 6000 rpm.
2. Automatic transmission: 350Nm at 32-100 rps, 258 ft. lbs at 1850-6000\
rpm.
Charge air cooler (Intercooler)
Turbocharged engines employ a turbo-compressor to force air into the eng\
ine inlet manifold and a
charge air cooler to cool the compressed inlet air. The resulting increa\
se in air flow raises pressure in the
intake manifold and increases engine power over that developed by the no\
rmally-aspirated engine. The
charge air cooler (which resembles a radiator) is located between the \
turbo-compressor and inlet
manifold.
Fuel system
The engine is equipped with a multiport fuel injection system.

- Begin by erasing all 3 factory default channels. Hold down the two out\
side buttons (buttons 1 and 3 in
the illustration) on the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver for about 2\
0 seconds, until HomeLink®'s
indicator light begins to flash. Then release the buttons.
- 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 place\
ment questions, contact
HomeLink® toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Internet:
www.HomeLink.com).
- Using two hands, push and hold both your hand-held transmitter's butto\
n and the transceiver button
you wish to program.
The indicator light will flash first slowly, then rapidly. Rapid flashin\
g tells you the HomeLink® button
has been successfully programmed. Release both buttons.
- If you are programming a rolling code-equipped device (e.g., garage d\
oor opener or entry door lock),
refer to "Programming rolling codes" on the next page to complete the pr\
ogramming process.
Repeat the third and fourth steps to program the other two transceiver b\
uttons.
If, after several attempts, you are unable to successfully train the Hom\
eLink® Universal Transceiver to
learn your hand-held transmitter's signal, contact HomeLink® toll-fre\
e 1-800-355-3515 (Internet:
www.
HomeLink.com).
pg. 244 Audio
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver (option)
WARNING!
If you use HomeLink® to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is\
near the gate or door while it
is in motion.
Do not use the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any garage door o\
pener that lacks safety
"stop" and "reverse" features as required by federal safety standards. (\
This includes any garage door
opener model manufactured before April 1, 1982) A garage door opener th\
at cannot "detect" an
object, signalling the door to "stop" and "reverse" does not meet curren\
t federal safety standards.
Using a garage door opener without these features increases the risk of \
serious injury or death. For
more information on this matter, call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 (Interne\
t:
www.HomeLink.com).
NOTE: Canadian residents: During programming, your hand-held transmitter may \
automatically stop
transmitting. To successfully train HomeLink®, continue to hold the H\
omeLink® button. At the same
time, repeatedly press and hold your handheld transmitter's button at tw\
o-second intervals until
HomeLink® has learned your transmitter's code. The HomeLink® indic\
ator light will flash first slowly,
and then rapidly to indicate that the button has been successfully progr\
ammed.
