Important Information On Accessories And Auxiliary Equipment; Installation Of Accessories - Volvo S60 Twin Engine Owner's Manual

Important information on
accessories and auxiliary
equipment
The incorrect connection and installation of
accessories and extra equipment can nega-
tively affect the car's electronic system.
We strongly recommend that Volvo owners
only install Volvo approved original accesso-
ries, and that installation of accessories is only
carried out by trained and qualified Volvo serv-
ice technicians. Certain accessories only func-
tion when associated software is installed in
the car's computer system.
The equipment described in the owner's man-
ual is not available in all cars - they have differ-
ent equipment depending on adaptations for
the needs of different markets and national or
local laws and regulations.
Options or accessories described in this man-
ual are marked with an asterisk. In the event of
uncertainty over what is standard or an
option/accessory, contact a Volvo retailer.
WARNING
The driver always bears the ultimate
responsibility that the car is used safely
and that laws and regulations in force are
followed.
It is also important that the car has mainte-
nance and service according to Volvo's rec-
ommendations, the owner's information
and the service and warranty booklet.
If the on-board information differs from the
printed owner's manual then the printed
information always has precedence.
