Coolant - level
The coolant cools the internal combustion engine to the correct operating temperature.The heat that is transferred from the engine tothe coolant can be used to heat the passen-ger compartment. The coolant level must lie between the
MIN
and MAX marks on the expansion tank.
Checking the level and topping up
When topping up the coolant, follow the instructions on the packaging. It is importantthat the mixture of coolant concentrate andwater is correct for the prevailing weatherconditions. Never top up with water only. Therisk of freezing increases with both too littleand too much coolant concentrate.

Stains on fabric upholstery and roof
upholstery
A special fabric cleaning agent, available from authorised Volvo dealers, is recommended toavoid impairing the fire retardant qualities ofthe upholstery.
IMPORTANT
Sharp objects and Velcro may damage the fabric upholstery.
Stains on leather upholsteryVolvo's leather upholstery is treated to pre- serve its original appearance. Leather upholstery ages and acquires a beau- tiful patina over time. The leather is refinedand processed so that it retains its naturalcharacteristics. It is given a protective coa-ting, but regular cleaning is required in orderto maintain both characteristics and appear-ance. Volvo offers a comprehensive productfor the cleaning and treatment of leatherupholstery which, when used in accordancewith the instructions, preserves the leather'sprotective coating. After a period of use thenatural appearance of the leather will never-theless emerge, depending more or less onthe surface texture of the leather. This is anatural maturing of the leather and showsthat it is a natural product. To achieve best results Volvo recommendscleaning and the application of protectivecream once to four times per year (or more ifnecessary). The Volvo Leather Care kit isavailable from your Volvo dealer.
IMPORTANT
•
Certain items of coloured clothing (for example, jeans and suede garments)may stain the upholstery.
• Never use strong solvents. Such prod-ucts may damage fabric, vinyl andleather upholstery.
Washing instructions for leather upholstery
1. Pour the leather cleaner on the damp-
ened sponge and squeeze out a strong foam.
2. Work the dirt away with gentle circular movements.
3. Dab accurately with the sponge on the stains. Allow the sponge to absorb thestain. Do not rub.
4. Wipe off with soft paper or a cloth and allow the leather to dry completely.
Protective treatment of leather upholstery
1. Pour a small amount of the protective cream on the felted cloth and massage in a thin layer of cream with gentle circularmovements on the leather.
2. Allow the leather to dry for 20 minutes before use.
The leather has now been given improvedprotection against stains and improved UVprotection.
Washing instructions for the leather steering wheel
• Remove dirt and dust with a soft pre- moistened sponge and neutral soap.
• Leather needs to breathe. Never coverthe leather steering wheel with protectiveplastic.
• Use natural oils. Volvo's leather careagents are recommended for best results.
If the steering wheel has stains: Group 1 (ink, wine, coffee, milk, sweat and
blood)
–Use a soft cloth or sponge. Mix a 5% ammonia solution. (For blood stains, usea solution of 2 dl water and 25g salt.)
Group 2 (fats, oils, sauces and chocolate)
