or stone chips on the windshield in front
of the camera/radar sensor should not
be repaired; in such cases, the entire
windshield should be replaced.

tact a Volvo retailer to ensure that the
correct windshield is ordered and instal-
led. If the wrong type of windshield is
used, this may cause City Safety to func-
tion improperly or not at all.

Volvo recommends the use of only Genu-
ine Volvo Replacement Windshields.

When replacing windshield wipers, use
the same type or ones approved by Volvo.

camera/radar sensor will have to be recalibra-
ted by a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician to help ensure proper function of
all of the vehicle's camera-/radar-based sys-
tems.

area of the windshield must be kept free of dirt,
ice, snow, etc.
