Important warnings
Accessory Installation
We strongly recommend that Volvo owners install only genuine, Volvo-approved accessories, and that
accessory installations be performed only by the factory-trained technicians at your authorized Volvo retailer.
Genuine Volvo accessories are tested to ensure compatibility with the performance, safety, and emission
systems in your vehicle. Additionally, your authorized Volvo retailer knows where accessories may and may not
be safely installed in your Volvo. In all cases, please consult your authorized Volvo retailer before installing any
accessory in or on your vehicle.
Accessories that have not been approved by Volvo may or may not be specifically tested for compatibility with
your vehicle. Additionally, an inexperienced installer may not be familiar with some of your vehicle's systems.
Any of your vehicle's performance and safety systems could be adversely affected if you install accessories that
Volvo has not tested, or if you allow accessories to be installed by someone unfamiliar with your vehicle.
Damage caused by unapproved or improperly installed accessories may not be covered by your new vehicle
warranty. See your Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for more warranty information. Volvo
assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may result from the installation of non-genuine
accessories.
Driver Distraction
Driver distraction results from driver activities that are not directly related to controlling the vehicle in the
driving environment. Your new Volvo is, or can be, equipped with many feature-rich entertainment and
communication systems. These include hands-free cellular telephones, navigation systems, and multipurpose audio
systems. You may also own other portable electronic devices for your own convenience. When used properly and
safely, they enrich the driving experience. Improperly used, any of these could cause a distraction.
For all of these systems, we want to provide the following warning that reflects the strong Volvo concern for
your safety:
Never use these devices or any feature of your vehicle in a way that distracts you from the task of driving safely.
Distraction can lead to a serious accident.In addition to this general warning, we offer the following guidance
regarding specific newer features that may be found in your vehicle:
Never use a hand-held cellular telephone while driving. Some jurisdictions prohibit cellular telephone use by a
driver while the vehicle is moving.
If your vehicle is equipped with a navigation system, set and make changes to your travel itinerary only with the
vehicle parked.
Never program your audio system while the vehicle is moving. Program radio presets with the vehicle parked,
and use your programmed presets to make radio use quicker and simpler.
Never use portable computers or personal digital assistants while the vehicle is moving.
A driver has a responsibility to do everything possible to ensure his or her own safety and the safety of passengers
in the vehicle and others sharing the roadway. Avoiding distractions is part of that responsibility.
