Washing the car

The following points should be kept in mind

when washing and cleaning the car:

•

The car should be washed at regular inter-

vals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spots

adhere to the paint and may cause dam-

age. To help prevent corrosion, it is partic-

ularly important to wash the car frequently

in the wintertime.

•

Avoid washing your car in direct sunlight.

Doing so may cause detergents and wax

to dry out and become abrasive. To avoid

scratching, use lukewarm water to soften

the dirt before you wash with a soft

sponge, and plenty of sudsy water.

•

Bird droppings: Remove from paintwork

as soon as possible. Otherwise the finish

may be permanently damaged.

•

A detergent can be used to facilitate the

softening of dirt and oil.

•

Dry the car with a clean chamois and

remember to clean the drain holes in the

doors and rocker panels.

•

Tar spots can be removed with tar remover

after the car has been washed.

•

A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapy

water can be used to clean the wiper

blades. Frequent cleaning of the wind-

shield and wiper blades improves visibility

considerably and also helps prolong the

service life of the wiper blades.

•

Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel

housings, fenders, etc).

•

In areas of high industrial fallout, more fre-

quent washing is recommended.

NOTE

When washing the car, remember to remove

dirt from the drain holes in the doors and

sills.

CAUTION

•

During high pressure washing, the

spray mouthpiece must never be closer

to the vehicle than 13" (30 cm). Do not

spray into the locks.

•

Dirt, snow, etc., on the headlights can

reduce lighting capacity considerably.

Clean the headlights regularly, for

example when refueling.

Special moonroof cautions:

•

Always close the moonroof and sun

shade before washing your vehicle.

•

Never use abrasive cleaning agents on

the moonroof.

•

Never use wax on the rubber seals

around the moonroof.

Exterior components

Volvo recommends the use of special cleaning

products, available at your Volvo retailer, for

cleaning colored plastic, rubber, or ornamental

components such as chromed strips on the

exterior of your vehicle. The instructions for

using these products should be followed care-

fully. Solvents or stain removers should not be

used.

CAUTION

•

Avoid waxing or polishing plastic or rub-

ber components

•

Polishing chromed strips can wear

away or damage the surface

•

Polishes containing abrasive sub-

stances should not be used

Automatic car wash

•

We do NOT recommend washing your car

in an automatic wash during the first few

months (because the paint will not have

hardened sufficiently).

•

An automatic wash is a simple and quick

way to clean your car, but it is worth

remembering that it may not be as thor-

ough as when you yourself go over the car

with sponge and water. Keeping the under-

body clean is most important, especially in

the winter. Some automatic washers do
