WARNING
Never use more than one inlay mat at a
time on the driver's floor. If any other type
of floor mat is used, remove the original
mat from the driver's seat floor before
driving. All types of mats must be securely
anchored in the attachment points in the
floor. Make sure the floor mat does not
impede the movement of the brake pedal
or accelerator pedal in any way, as this
could be a serious safety hazard.
Volvo's floor mats are specially manufac-
tured for your vehicle. They must be prop-
erly secured in the attachment points in
the floor to help ensure they cannot slide
and become trapped under the pedals.
After vacuuming, a specially designed textile
cleaning agent should be used to remove stains
on floor mats. Floor mats should be cleaned with
products recommended by Volvo retailers.

Leather upholstery*Volvo's leather upholstery is treated to protect its
original appearance. Over time, sunlight, grease,
dirt, etc. could break down the protective layer.
This could result in scratches and cracking.
Leather upholstery is a natural product that
changes and acquires a beautiful patina over
time. Regular cleaning and treatments are
required to preserve the qualities and color of the
leather. Volvo offers a comprehensive product,
Volvo Leather Care Kit/Wipes, for cleaning and
treating leather upholstery that, when used as
directed, preserves the leather's protective coa-
ting.
For best results, Volvo recommends cleaning and
applying protective cream one to four times a
year (or more as needed). Volvo Leather Care Kit
951 0251 and Volvo Leather Softener 943
7429 are available for purchase at Volvo retailers.
