Fuses and fuseboxes All electrical functions and components are protected by a number of fuses in order toprotect the vehicle's electrical system fromdamage by short circuiting or overloading.
WARNING
Never use a foreign object or a fuse with a higher amperage than that specified toreplace a fuse. This could cause significantdamage to the electrical system and possi-bly lead to a fire.
If any electrical component or function is not responding, the component may have blown afuse due to temporary overload. If the samefuse blows repeatedly, there may be a prob-lem with the component. Volvo recommendscontacting an authorized Volvo workshop tohave the component checked.

Replacing fuses
All electrical functions and components are protected by a number of fuses in order toprotect the vehicle's electrical system fromdamage by short circuiting or overloading.
1. Refer to the fuse diagram to locate the fuse.
2. Pull out the fuse and examine it from the side to determine if the curved metal wire in the fuse is intact.
3. If the wire is broken, replace the fuse with a new fuse of the same color and amper-age.
WARNING
Never use a foreign object or a fuse with a higher amperage than that specified toreplace a fuse. This could cause significantdamage to the electrical system and possi-bly lead to a fire.
WARNING
Contact an authorized Volvo workshop for assistance replacing fuses not listed in theOwner's Manual. If fuse replacement isperformed incorrectly, significant damagecan be caused to the electrical system.

Only use cleaning agents and car care prod- ucts recommended by Volvo. Clean regularlyand treat stains immediately. It is importantto vacuum before using a cleaning agent.
Volvo's leather upholstery * is treated to pro-
tect its original appearance. Over time, sun- light, grease, dirt, etc. could break down theprotective layer. This could result in scratchesand cracking. Leather upholstery * is a natural product that
changes and acquires a beautiful patina over time. Regular cleaning and treatments arerequired to preserve the qualities and color ofthe leather. Volvo offers a comprehensiveproduct, Volvo Leather Care KitWipes, forcleaning and treating leather upholstery.When used as directed, it helps preserve theleather's protective coating. For optimal results, Volvo recommends clean- ing and applying protective cream one to fourtimes a year (or more often as needed). VolvoLeather Care Kit 951 0251 and Volvo LeatherSoftener 943 7429 are available for purchaseat Volvo retailers.
Cleaning the leather upholstery1. Apply the leather cleaner to a damp sponge and squeeze it until the cleanerfoams. 2. Move the sponge in circular motions to
apply the foam to the stain.
3. Dampen the stain thoroughly with the sponge. Let the sponge absorb the stainand do not rub.
4. Dry the stain using a soft towel and let the leather dry completely.
Protecting the leather upholstery1. Apply a small amount of leather protectorto a cloth and then apply the protector tothe leather using light circular movements.
2. Let it dry for approximately 20 minutes. > Protecting the leather upholsterymakes it better able to withstand sun-light's harmful UV rays.

Wash using a sponge, car washing deter- gent and plenty of lukewarm water.
Clean the wiper blades with lukewarmsoap solution or car washing detergent.
Dry the vehicle using a clean, soft chamoisor a squeegee. Try not to let drops ofwater dry in strong sunlight. This couldcause water drying stains that may needto be polished out.
In areas with heavy industrial emissions,more frequent washing of the vehicle'sexterior is recommended.
Tar spots from asphalt may remain evenafter washing. Use a tar remover toremove these spots.
WARNING
Always entrust engine washing to a work- shop. If the engine is hot, there is a risk offire.
CAUTION
Dirty headlights do not work as well. Clean them regularly, e.g. when refueling. Do not use corrosive cleaners. Use water and a non-abrasive sponge.
NOTE
Exterior lighting such as headlights and taillights may develop temporary conden-sation on the inside of the lens. This is nor-mal. All exterior lighting is designed toresist this. Condensation is normally ven-ted out of the lamp housing once the lighthas been lit for some period of time.
CAUTION
Make sure that the panoramic roof and sun shade are closed before washingthe vehicle.
Never use abrasive polishing agents onthe panoramic roof.
Never use wax on the rubber sealsaround the panoramic roof.
