for a certain length of time, but also as a
result of a collision or incident. This informa-
tion may be stored by Volvo as long as it can
help to further develop and further enhance
safety and quality and as long as there are
legal requirements and other regulations that
Volvo needs to consider.
Volvo will not contribute to the above-descri-
bed information being disclosed to third par-
ties without the vehicle owner's consent.
However, due to national legislation and reg-
ulations Volvo may be required to disclose
such information to authorities such as police
authorities, or others who may assert a legal
right to have access to it.
To be able to read and interpret the informa-
tion recorded by the computers in the vehicle
requires special technical equipment that
Volvo, and workshops that have entered into
agreements with Volvo, have access to. Volvo
is responsible that the information, which is
transferred to Volvo during servicing and
maintenance, is stored and handled in a
secure manner and that the handling com-
plies with applicable legal requirements. For
further information - contact a Volvo dealer.
Accessories and extra equipment
The incorrect connection and installation of
accessories and extra equipment can nega-
tively affect the car's electronic system.
Certain accessories only function when asso-
ciated software is installed in the car's com-
puter system. Volvo therefore recommends
that you always contact an authorised Volvo
workshop before installing accessories or
extra equipment which are connected to or
affect the electrical system.
Heat-reflecting windscreen*
Areas where IR film is not applied.
Dimensions
A 47 mm
B 87 mm
The windscreen is equipped with a heat-
reflecting film (IR) that reduces the solar heat
radiation into the passenger compartment.
The positioning of electronic equipment, such
as a transponder, behind a glass surface with
heat-reflecting film may affect its function and
performance.
For the optimal function of electronic equip-
ment, it should be positioned on the part of
the windscreen with no heat-reflecting film
(see the highlighted area in the above illustra-
tion).
