09 Maintenance and servicing

Fuses

228

Replacing fuses

There are relay/fuse boxes located in the
engine compartment and the passenger com-
partment.

If an electrical component fails to function, this
may be due to a blown fuse. The easiest way
to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it.

To do so:

Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult
to remove, special fuse removal tools are
located on the inside of the fuse box cov-
ers.

From the side, examine the curved metal
wire in the fuse to see if it is intact.

If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse of
the same color and amperage (written on
the fuse).

If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical
system inspected by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.

WARNING

Never use metal objects or fuses with higher
amperage than those stated on the follow-
ing pages. Doing so could seriously damage
or overload the vehicle's electrical system.

Press MODE (3) repeatedly to toggle
between the CD player and the optional
external sound source AUX, USB or the
optional Sirius satellite radio.

The currently selected sound source will be

AUX

The AUX (auxiliary) port, located under the cen-
ter armrest, can be used to connect for exam-
ple, an MP3 player.

If the player is being charged through a 12-volt
socket while it is connect to the AUX port,
sound quality may be impaired.

The volume of the external sound source AUX
may be different from the volume of the internal
sound sources such as the CD player or the
radio. If the external sound source's volume is
too high, the quality of the sound may be
impaired.

This can be prevented by adjusting the external
sound source's input volume.

While playing the radio or a CD, lower the
audio volume to about one-quarter.

Switch to

AUX

mode on the audio system

by pressing the MODE button.

Connect the headphone output from your
music player to the AUX input using a cable
with a stereo 3.5 mm miniplug at both
ends.

Set your music player's headphone vol-
ume to three-quarters using the player's
volume controls.
