Car care
Cleaning
Washing the car
Wash the car as soon as it becomes dirty,
especially in the winter when road salt and
moisture can lead to corrosion.
Wash the car as follows:
Do not park the car in direct sunshine.
Washing a car with hot paintwork can
cause permanent paintwork damage.
Wash the car in a car wash with waste
water separator.
Thoroughly rinse dirt off the underbody of
the car.
Rinse the entire car to remove loose dirt.
When using a high-pressure washer,
make sure that its nozzle is not closer
than 30 cm to the bodywork. Do not
spray directly at the locks.
Wash with a sponge using a lot of water
with or without detergent.
Use warm water (max. 35 °C), not water
that is too hot.
If the dirt is ingrained, you can wash the
car with cold degreasing agent, but be
sure that there is a waste water separator
where you are washing the car. When
using cold degreasing agent, make sure
that the car is not in direct sunlight and
that the paint is not warm due to sunlight
or a warm engine. Sunlight and heat can
cause permanent damage. Consult a
Volvo workshop.
Dry the car with a clean, soft chamois.
Clean the wiper blades with a lukewarm
soap solution.
NOTE! Outside lighting such as headlamps,
fog lamps and rear lamps may temporarily
have condensation on the inside of the lens.
This is a natural phenomenon, all outside
lighting is designed to withstand this.
Condensation is normally vented out of the
lamp when it has been switched on for a
time.
Suitable detergent:
Car shampoo.
Keep the following in mind:
Always remove bird droppings from the
paintwork as soon as possible. Bird
droppings contain chemicals that can
affect and discolour paintwork very
quickly. Discoloration cannot be removed
with polish.
Automatic car washes
An automatic car wash is a simple and quick
way of washing the car. Bear in mind,
however, that an automatic car wash can
never replace a proper handwashing – the
brushes of a car wash cannot reach every
-
where.
Exterior plastic parts
A special cleaning agent, available from Volvo
dealers, is recommended for cleaning
exterior plastic parts. Never use strong stain
removers.
IMPORTANT!
Sharp objects and Velcro may damage
the fabric upholstery.
WARNING!
Do not wash the engine while it is warm.
Risk of fire! Entrust engine washing to an
authorised Volvo workshop.
IMPORTANT!
Washing by hand is gentler to the
paintwork than an automatic car wash.
The paintwork is also more sensitive
when it is new. For this reason,
handwashing is recommended during the
first few months with a new car.
