MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
620
Avoid washing the car with cleaning agent
with a pH value lower than 3.5 or higher than
11.5. This may result in discolouration of ano-
dised aluminium parts such as roof rack and
around the side windows.
Never use metal polishing agent on anodised
aluminium parts, this can result in discoloura-
tion and destroy the surface treatment.

Cleaning wheel rims
The car should be washed as soon as it
becomes dirty. This means that the car is easier
to clean since the dirt does not attach as firmly.
It also reduces the risk of scratches and keeps
the car fresh. Wash the car in a car wash with oil
separator. Use car shampoo.
Rims
Only use rim cleaning agent recommended by
Volvo.
Strong rim cleaning agents can damage the sur-
face and cause stains on chrome-plated alumi-
nium rims.

Rustproofing
The car has effective protection against corro-
sion.
Anti-corrosion protection for the body consists of
metallic protective coatings on the sheet metal, a
high-quality painting process, corrosion-protected
and minimised metal overlap, and shielding plas-
tic components, abrasion protection and supple-
mental rust inhibitor on exposed areas. In the
chassis, exposed components of the wheel sus-
pension are made of corrosion-resistant cast alu-
minium.
Inspection and maintenance
The car's anti-corrosion protection normally
requires no maintenance, but a good way to fur-
ther reduce the risk of corrosion is to keep the
car clean. Strong alkaline or acidic cleaning solu-
tions must always be avoided on glossy trim com-
ponents. Any stone chips should be rectified as
soon as they are discovered.
