WARNING Certain components of this vehicle such as air bag modules, seat belt pretensioners, adaptive steering columns, and button cell batteries may contain Perchlorate material. Special handling may apply for service or vehicle end of life disposal. See www.dtsc.ca.gov/ hazardouswaste/perchlorate. 8 01 Safety Volvo and the environment PremAir® (certain models only) 1 2 The surface of the radiator in the engine compartment is treated with a special coating called PremAir . This coating works as a catalytic converter, converting most of the ground level ozone passing through the radiator into oxygen, thereby reducing harmful ground-level ozone. NOTE If a PremAir-coated radiator needs to be replaced, it should be replaced with another radiator with this coating. If this is not done, the Malfunction Indicator Light (see page 52) will illuminate. 1 Only U.S. vehicles with engine B5244 S7 (engine code 39 in the VIN) 2 PremAir is a registered trademark of Engelhard Corporation. 9 01 Safety 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 car. 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 car. ● Accessories that have not been approved by Volvo may or may not be specifically tested for compatibility with your car. Additionally, an inexperienced installer may not be familiar with some of your car's systems. ● Any of your car'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 car. ● Damage caused by unapproved or improperly installed accessories may not be covered by your new car 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 car 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: file:///K|/ownersdocs/2007/2007_V50/07V50_00.htm (6 of 7)12/30/2006 5:48:21 PM
