CAUTION
•
Under no circumstances should gaso-
line, naphtha or similar cleaning agents
be used on the plastic or the leather
since these can cause damage.
•
Take extra care when removing stains
such as ink or lipstick since the coloring
can spread.
•
Use solvents sparingly. Too much sol-
vent can damage the seat padding.
•
Start from the outside of the stain and
work toward the center.
•
Sharp objects (e.g. pencils or pens in a
pocket) or Velcro fasteners on clothing
may damage the textile upholstery.
•
Clothing that is not colorfast, such as
new jeans or suede garments, may stain
the upholstery.
Cleaning the seat belts
Clean only with lukewarm water and a mild
soap solution.
Cleaning floor mats
The floor mats should be vacuumed or brushed
clean regularly, especially during winter when
they should be taken out for drying. Spots on
textile mats can be removed with a mild deter-
gent. For best protection in winter, Volvo rec-
ommends the use of Volvo rubber floor mats.
Consult your Volvo retailer.
Spots on interior plastic, metal, or wood
surfaces
Cleaning interior plastic components should
be done with a cleaning agent specially
designed for this purpose. Consult your Volvo
retailer.
Touching up paintwork

Paint damage requires immediate attention to
avoid rusting. Make it a habit to check the finish
regularly, for instance washing the vehicle.
Touch-up if necessary.
Paint repairs require special equipment and
skill. Contact your Volvo retailer for any exten-
sive damage.
Minor scratches can be repaired by using
Volvo touch-up paint.

Make sure you have the right color. The color
code number is stated on the model plate.
Minor stone chips and scratches

If the stone chip has not gone down to the bare

dirt.

clean and dry. The surface temperature
should be above 60 °F (15 °C).
