Volvo 1990 740 Model
The following points may be of use if you do not intend to use your car for a long time (e.g. because of a
long holiday, winter, etc.)
●
Fill fuel tank to prevent water from condensing inside the tank.
●
Wash the car carefully and wax it to protect the paint - don't forget the chromed parts.
●
The vehicle should be left in a dry, well ventilated garage.
●
Do not apply the hand brake. Block the wheels instead.
●
Disconnect the battery's negative (-) cable.
●
Lift the wiper arms away from the windshield.
●
Increase tire pressure to maximum allowed, i.e. 36 psi.
●
Open one of the window's slightly for ventilation.
●
Ensure that the coolant contains sufficient anti-freeze to provide protection down to -22°F (-30°C).
Volvo anti-freeze also provides resistance against corrosion.
●
Remove all valuables and lock the car.
●
Check the battery voltage at least every 6 weeks.
