rants to the first vehicle purchaser and each
subsequent purchaser, that if

accordance with the written instructions
for proper maintenance and use (Refer to
the Owner's Manual under the section
titled "Service and Routine Maintenance"
and page 8 of this booklet), and
2. the vehicle fails to conform at any time
during the first 24,000 miles/40,000 kilo-
meters or two (2) years (whichever oc-
curs first) to the applicable emission
standards as judged by an EPA ap-
proved or Canadian Provincial approved
emission short test, and
3. such non-conformity will result in the
vehicle owner having to bear any penal-
ty or other sanction (including denial of
the right to use the vehicle) under local,
state, federal or provincial law, then
Volvo shall remedy the non-conformity

non-compliance by a vehicle owner with
