Polishing and waxing
Polish and wax the car if the paintwork is dull
or to give the paintwork extra protection.
The car does not need to be polished until it
is at least one year old. However, the car can
be waxed during this time. Do not polish or
wax the car in direct sunlight.
Wash and dry the car thoroughly before you
begin polishing or waxing. Clean off asphalt
and tar stains using Volvo tar remover or
white spirit. More stubborn marks can be re-
moved using fine rubbing paste designed for
car paintwork.
Polish first with a polish and then wax with
liquid or solid wax. Follow the instructions on
the packaging carefully. Many preparations
contain both polish and wax.
Rustproofing – inspection and
maintenance
The car received a thorough and complete
rustproofing at the factory. Parts of the body
are made of galvanised sheet metal. The un-
derbody is protected by a wear-resistant
anti-corrosion compound. A thin, penetrating
rustproofing fluid was sprayed into the ex-
posed members, cavities, closed sections
and side doors.
Under normal conditions the rustproofing
does not require treatment for approximately
12 years. After this period, it should be treat-
ed at three-year intervals. Please contact an
authorised Volvo workshop if the car needs
further treatment.
Dirt and road salt can lead to corrosion so it
is important to keep the car clean. The car’s
rustproofing needs to be checked regularly
and touched-up if necessary in order for it to
be maintained.
Cleaning the interior
Only use cleaning agents and car care prod-
ucts recommended by Volvo. Clean regular-
ly and follow the instructions included with
the car care product.
Stains on fabric upholstery and roof
upholstery
A special fabric cleaning agent, available
from authorised
Volvo dealers, is recommended to avoid im-
pairing the fire retardant qualities of the up-
holstery.
Use water and a synthetic detergent to clean
the seatbelts. Make sure the seatbelt is dry
before allowing it to retract.
Treating stains on leather upholstery
Volvo’s leather upholstery is equipped with
surface protection against dirt. Cleaning re-
protects the leather but grease and dirt dis-
solves the surface protection. There is a
comprehensive programme for the care and
maintenance of leather upholstery. Volvo of-
fers a leather product for cleaning and treat-
IMPORTANT
Paint treatment such as preserving, sealing,
protection, lustre sealing or similar could
damage the paintwork. Paintwork damage
caused by such treatments is not covered
by Volvo warranty.
IMPORTANT
Sharp objects and Velcro may damage the
fabric upholstery.
