2002 Volvo C70 Coupe & Convertible
Volvo offers an environmentally friendly Car Care Kit, containing waxing, washing, and degreasing
agents.
NOTE: When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills.
Bumpers: Wash the bumpers with the same cleaning agent used on the rest of the car. Never clean the
bumpers with gasoline or paint thinner. Difficult spots can be removed with denatured alcohol. To avoid
scratches, do not dry the bumpers with paper.
See your local Volvo retailer for a complete line of genuine Volvo environmental car care products.
* Pay special attention to the drain holes near the base of the windshield in the cowl under the rear edge
of the hood.
pg. 111 Automatic car washing, Polishing and waxing
Automatic washing simple and quick
An automatic wash is a simple and quick way to clean your car, but it is worth remembering that it may
not be as thorough as when you yourself go over the car with sponge and water. Keeping the underbody
clean is most important, especially in the winter. Some automatic washers do not have facilities for
washing the underbody.
Before driving into an automatic wash, make sure that side view mirrors, auxiliary lamps, etc., are
secure, otherwise there is risk of the machine dislodging them. You should also lower the antenna by
turning off the radio.
We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the first six months
(because the paint will not have hardened sufficiently).
