result in reduced City Safety™ functional-
ity.
To help prevent limited or reduced func-
tionality, please also observe the following:
•
Volvo recommends that cracks,
scratches or stone chips on the wind-
shield in front of the laser sensor
should not be repaired; in such cases,
the entire windshield should be
replaced.
•
Before the windshield is replaced,
contact a Volvo retailer to ensure that
the correct windshield is ordered and
installed. If the wrong type of wind-
shield is used, this may cause City
Safety™ to function improperly or not
at all. Volvo recommends the use of
only Genuine Volvo Replacement
Windshields.
•
When replacing windshield wipers, use
the same type or ones approved by
Volvo.
