The manual is structured so that it can be used for reference. For this reason, it should be kept in
the car for ready access.
Do not export your Volvo to another country before investigating that country's applicable safety
and exhaust emission requirements. In some cases it may be difficult or impossible to comply with
these requirements. Modifications to the emission control system(s) may render your Volvo not
certifiable for legal operation in the U.S., Canada and other countries.
All information, illustrations and specifications contained in this manual are based on the latest
product information available at the time of publication. Please note that some vehicles may be
equipped differently, depending on special legal requirments and that optional equipment
described in this manual may not be available in all markets.
Volvo reserves the right to make model changes at any time, or to change specifications or design,
without notice and without incurring obligation.
CAUTION: Certain models have reduced ground clearance due to the design of the front spoiler. Please
observe caution when e.g., driving onto garage hoists, through drifted snow or when other road debris is
encountered, or when parking near curbs.
