Accessories and extra equipment
The incorrect connection and installation of
accessories and extra equipment can negatively
affect the car's electronic system.
Certain accessories only function when associ-
ated software is installed in the car's computer
system. Volvo therefore recommends that you
always contact an authorised Volvo workshop
before installing accessories or extra equipment
which are connected to or affect the electrical
system.
Heat-reflecting windscreen*
The windscreen is equipped with a heat-reflect-
ing film (IR) that reduces the solar heat radiation
into the passenger compartment.
The positioning of electronic equipment, such as
a transponder, behind a glass surface with heat-
reflecting film may affect its function and per-
formance.
For the optimal function of electronic equipment,
it should be positioned on the part of the wind-
screen with no heat-reflecting film (see the high-
lighted area in the illustration).
Areas where IR film is not applied.
A is the distance from the top edge of the wind-
screen down to the start of the field. B is the dis-
tance from the top edge of the windscreen down
to the end of the field.
