Cleaning rims

The vehicle should be washed as soon as it
becomes dirty. This makes the vehicle easier to
clean because dirt does not attach as strongly. It
also reduces the risk of scratches and keeps the
vehicle looking new. Wash the vehicle in a car
wash or garage with an oil separator and use car
washing detergent.

Rims

Only use rim cleaning products recommended by
Volvo.

Strong rim cleaning agents could damage the
surface and stain the chromed aluminum rims.

Corrosion protection (p. 640)

Corrosion protection

Your vehicle is constructed with effective protec-
tion against corrosion.

Corrosion protection for the body consists of
modern metallic protective coatings on the sheet
metal, a high-quality painting process, corrosion-
protected and minimized metal overlap, and
shielding plastic components, abrasion protection
and supplemental rust inhibitor in exposed areas.
In the chassis, exposed components of the wheel
suspension are made of corrosion-resistant cast
aluminum.

Inspection and maintenance

The corrosion protection does not normally
require maintenance but keeping the vehicle
clean is always a good way to further reduce the
risk of corrosion. The use of strong alkaline or
acidic cleaning fluids should always be avoided
on shiny body components. Any stone chips in
the paint should be touched up as soon as they
are discovered.

Paintwork

The paintwork consists of multiple layers. It is an
important part of the vehicle's corrosion protec-
tion and therefore needs to be checked regu-
larly.

The most common types of paint damage are
minor stone chips, scratches and damage to e.g.
the edges of fenders, doors and bumpers. To
help prevent corrosion, paint damage should be
rectified immediately.

Touching up minor paint damage

The paintwork is an important part of the vehi-
cle's corrosion protection and therefore needs
to be checked regularly. The most common
types of paint damage are minor stone chips,
scratches and damage to e.g. the edges of
fenders, doors and bumpers.

Touching up paint damage

To help prevent corrosion, paint damage should
be rectified immediately.

NOTE

Make sure the surface is clean and dry before
performing any touch-ups to the paint. The
surface temperature should be at least 15
°C (59 °F).

Materials that might be needed

Primer

23

‒ special adhesive primer is availa-

ble in a spray can for e.g. plastic-covered
bumpers.

Base coat and clear coat

‒ available in spray

cans or as a touch-up pen/stick

24

.

Masking tape.

Fine-grain sandpaper

23

.

If the damage has not reached all the way down
to the metal, then touch-up paint can be applied
immediately after the surface has been cleaned.

1. Place a strip of masking tape over the dam-

aged surface. Pull the tape off so that any
loose flakes of paint adhere to it.

If the damage goes down to the bare metal,
you may need to use primer first. If the paint
damage is on a plastic surface, an adhesive
primer should be used for better results.
Spray the primer into the lid of the spray can
and brush on thinly.

2. Light sanding with a very fine-grained sand-

paper or similar may be required before
painting (e.g. if there are uneven edges).
Clean the area carefully and let it dry.

23

If required.

24

Follow the instructions on the packaging for the touch-up pen/stick carefully.

3. Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it with a

small brush, toothpick or similar. When the
primer is dry, apply one or more coats of
paint and then a clear coat, letting the paint
dry between each application.

If there is a longer scratch, follow the same pro-
cedure as above, but first mask off the surround-
ing area to protect the undamaged paint.

Touch-up pens and spray paints are available at
Volvo retailers.

NOTE

If the stone chip has not gone down to the
bare metal and an undamaged coat of paint
remains, apply base coat and clear coat
immediately after cleaning the surface.

Changing rear window wipers

The wiper blades help remove water from the
windshield and rear window. Along with the
washer fluid, they clean the glass and help
improve visibility while driving. The windshield
and rear window wiper blades can be replaced.

Changing rear window wipers

Lift the wiper arm from the window and pull the lower
section of the blade to the right.

Grasp the center of the wiper blade and lift it
from the window to the stop position.

NOTE

When the wiper arm is halfway folded out, it
will stop in a locking position that helps pre-
vent the arm from falling back onto the rear
window. The wiper arm must be pulled past
the locking position stop in order to change
the wiper blade.

Grip the lower part of the blade and pull to
the right until the blade loosens from the
arm.

3. Press the new wiper blade until it clicks into

place. Check to make sure the blade is
securely in place.

4. Fold the wiper arm back toward the window.

CAUTION

Check the blades regularly. Neglected main-
tenance shortens the life of the blades.

Replacing windshield wiper blades

The wiper blades help remove water from the
windshield and rear window. Along with the
washer fluid, they clean the glass and help
improve visibility while driving. The windshield
and rear window wiper blades can be replaced.

Replacing wiper blades

Raise the wiper arms to the service position.
Service position is activated/deactivated via
the function view in the center display when
the car is stationary and the windshield wip-
ers are not on. Press the button on the wiper
blade attachment and pull the wiper blade
straight out, parallel with the wiper arm.

Slide in a new wiper blade until it clicks into
place.

3. Check to make sure the blade is securely in

place.

4. Press the wiper blade back against the wind-

shield.

Wiper blades come in varying lengths

NOTE

When changing wiper blades, make sure that
the blades are of different lengths. The blade
on the driver's side is longer than the one on
the passenger side.

Windshield wipers in the service

position

The windshield wiper blades must be in the serv-
ice (vertical) position for certain operations, e.g.
replacing the blades.

Windshield wipers in the service position.

The windshield wipers must be in the service
position when replacing, washing or lifting the
blades (e.g. to scrape ice or snow from the wind-
shield).

CAUTION

Before placing the wipers in service position,
ensure that they have not frozen to the wind-
shield.

Activating/deactivating service position

The service position can be activated/deactivated
when the vehicle is stationary and the windshield
wipers are switched off. Service position is acti-
vated/deactivated via Function view in the center
display:

Tap the

Wiper Service

Position

button. The indicator

light in the button will illuminate
when service position is acti-
vated. The windshield wipers
will move to the vertical posi-
tion when service position is

activated. To deactivate the service position, tap

Wiper Service Position

once. The indicator light

in the button will go out when service position is
deactivated.

The wiper blades will also move out of service
position if:

The windshield wipers are turned on.

The windshield washers are turned on.

The rain sensor is activated.

The vehicle begins moving.

CAUTION

If the wiper arms in service position are raised
from the windshield, they must be folded back
against the windscreen before activating wip-
ing, washing or rain sensor as well as before
departure. This is to prevent scratching the
paint on the hood.

Filling washer fluid

Washer fluid is used to keep the headlights,
windshield and rear window clean. Washer fluid
containing anti-freeze should be used in very
cold weather (below-freezing temperatures).

Fill washer fluid into the reservoir with the blue
cover. The reservoir is used for the windshield
washer, tailgate window washer and headlight
washer*

NOTE

When there is approximately 1 liter (1 qt) of
washer fluid remaining, the message

Washer

fluid

Level low, refill

and the

symbol

will be displayed in the instrument panel.

Recommended grade: Washer fluid recom-
mended by Volvo, with frost protection during
cold weather and temperatures below the freez-
ing point.

CAUTION

Use Volvo's original washer fluid or an equiva-
lent fluid with the recommended pH value
between 6 and 8, diluted as recommended,
e.g. in a 1:1 solution with pH-neutral water.

CAUTION

Use washer fluid with anti-freeze when tem-
peratures are below the freezing point to help
keep the pump, reservoir and hoses from
freezing.

Volume:

Vehicles with headlight washing: 5.5 liters
(5.8 qts).

Vehicles without headlight washing: 3.5 lit-
ers (3.7 qts).

ing altitude the engine power and there-
fore the car's climbing ability are impaired
because of the reduced air density, so
the maximum trailer weight has to be
reduced accordingly. The weight of the
car and trailer must be reduced by 10%
for every further 3280 ft (1,000 m) (or
