Maintenance – introduction
Periodic maintenance will help keep your
vehicle running well.
Introduction
The maintenance services contain several
checks that require special instruments and
tools and therefore must be performed by a
qualified technician. To keep your Volvo in
top condition, specify time-tested and proven
Genuine Volvo Parts and Accessories.
The Federal Clean Air Act – U.S.
The Federal Clean Air Act requires vehicle
manufacturers to furnish written instructions
to the ultimate purchaser to assure the proper
servicing and function of the components that
control emissions. These services, which are
listed in the "Warranty and Service Records
Information" booklet, are not covered by the
warranty. You will be required to pay for labor
and material used.
Maintenance
Your Volvo passed several major inspections
before it was delivered to you, in accordance
with Volvo specifications. The maintenance
procedures outlined in the Warranty and
Service Records Information booklet, many of
which will positively affect your vehicle's
emissions, should be performed as indicated.
It is recommended that receipts for vehicle
emission maintenance be retained in case
questions arise concerning maintenance.
Inspection and maintenance should also be
performed anytime a malfunction is observed
or suspected.
