Cleaning

Washing the car

Wash the car as soon as it becomes dirty.

Use car shampoo. Dirt and road salt can lead

to corrosion.

• 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 pressure washer: Make sure

that the nozzle of the pressure washer is

not closer than 30 cm to the bodywork. Do

not spray directly at the locks.

• Wash using a sponge, car shampoo and

plenty of lukewarm water.

• If the dirt is difficult to dislodge, wash the

car using a cold degreasing agent.

• Dry the car using a clean, soft chamois or

a water scraper.

• Clean the wiper blades with a lukewarm

soap solution or car shampoo.

Removing bird droppings

Wash bird droppings off the paintwork as

soon as possible. Bird droppings contain

chemicals that affect and discolour paint-

work very quickly. This discoloration can only

be removed by a specialist.

Chromed wheels

Automatic car washes

An automatic car wash is a simple and quick

way of washing the car, but it can never

replace a proper handwashing. The brushes

of an automatic car wash cannot reach

everywhere.

Press the brake pedal lightly from time to

time if driving for long periods in rain or slush.

This heats and dries the brake pads. You

should also do this when you begin driving in

extremely damp or cold weather.

Exterior plastic, rubber and trim

components

A special cleaning agent available from Volvo

dealers is recommended for cleaning col-

oured plastic parts, rubber and trim compo-

nents, such as glossy trim mouldings. When

using such a cleaning agent the instructions

must be followed carefully.

WARNING

Always have the engine cleaned by a work-

shop. There is a risk of fire if the engine is

hot.

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.

IMPORTANT

Rim cleaning agents can cause stains on

chrome-plated wheels. Wash using a

sponge, car shampoo and plenty of luke-

warm water.

WARNING

Always test the brakes after washing the

car, including the parking brake, to ensure

that moisture and corrosion do not attack

the brake pads and reduce braking per-

formance.

IMPORTANT

Washing by hand is gentler to the paintwork

than an automatic car wash. Paintwork is

also more sensitive when it is new. For this

reason, handwashing is recommended dur-

ing the first few months with a new car.
