Positive charging point
Negative charging point
IMPORTANT
When charging the starter battery and the support battery, only use a modern batterycharger with controlled charging voltage. Fastcharging function must not be used since itmay damage the battery.
IMPORTANT
If the following instruction is not observed then the energy saving function for infotain-ment may be temporarily disengaged, and/orthe message in the driver display about thestarter battery's state of charge may be tem-porarily inapplicable, following the connectionof an external starter battery or batterycharger:
• The negative battery terminal on the car's starter battery must
never be used for
connecting an external starter battery orbattery charger - only the car's negative
charging point may be used as the
grounding point.
NOTE
The life of the battery is shortened if it becomes discharged repeatedly. The life of the battery is affected by several factors, including driving conditions and cli-mate. Battery starting capacity decreasesgradually with time and therefore needs to berecharged if the car is not used for a longertime or when it is only driven short distances.Extreme cold further limits starting capacity. To maintain the battery in good condition, at least 15 minutes of driving/week is recom-mended or that the battery is connected to abattery charger with automatic trickle charg-ing. A battery that is kept fully charged has a maximum service life.

> The car is ready for the automatic car wash.
IMPORTANT
The system will automatically switch to P
mode unless the above step is followed. The wheels are locked in P mode, which they
should not be when putting the car through an automatic car wash.
High-pressure washingWhen using high-pressure washing, use sweep- ing movements and make sure that the nozzledoes not come closer than 30 cm to the surfaceof the car. Do not spray directly onto the locks.
Testing the brakesLightly depress the brake pedal now and thenwhen driving long distances in rain or slush. Theheat from the friction causes the brake linings towarm up and dry. Do the same thing after startingin very damp or cold weather.
WARNING
Always test the brakes after washing the car, including the parking brake, to ensure thatmoisture and corrosion do not attack thebrake linings and reduce braking perform-ance.
Wiper bladesAsphalt, dust and salt residue on wiper blades, as well as insects, ice etc. on the windscreen, impairthe service life of wiper blades. When cleaning, set the wiper blades in service position.
NOTE
Wash the wiper blades and windscreen regu- larly with lukewarm soap solution or carshampoo. Do not use any strong solvents.
Exterior plastic, rubber and trim components
A special cleaning agent available from Volvo dealers is recommended for the cleaning andcare of coloured plastic parts, rubber and trimcomponents, e.g. glossy trim mouldings. Whenusing such a cleaning agent the instructionsmust be followed carefully. The frames around the side windows, the car's roof rails and the door frames at the windows *
are produced in anodised aluminium. This means that they should only be washed using a cleaning agent with a pH value between 3.5 and 11.5.This is in order to avoid discolouration.
Parts that should be washed using a cleaning agent with a pH value between 3.5 and 11.5.
IMPORTANT
Avoid waxing and polishing on plastic and rubber. When using degreasant on plastic and rubber, only rub with light pressure if it is necessary.Use a soft washing sponge. Polishing glossy trim mouldings could wear away or damage the glossy surface layer. Polishing agent that contains abrasive must not be used.

Rustproofing
The car has effective protection against corro- sion.
Anti-corrosion protection for the body consists of modern metallic protective coatings on the sheetmetal, a high-quality painting process, corrosion-protected and minimised metal overlap, andshielding plastic components, abrasion protectionand supplemental rust inhibitor in exposed areas.This combination guarantees that the body willremain free from corrosion problems over time. Inthe chassis, exposed components of the wheelsuspension are made of corrosion-resistant castaluminium.
Inspection and maintenanceThe car's anti-corrosion protection normallyrequires no maintenance, but a good way to fur-ther reduce the risk of corrosion is to keep thecar clean. Strong alkaline or acidic cleaning solu-tions must always be avoided on glossy trim com-ponents. Any stone chips should be rectified assoon as they are discovered.
