- Turn off the center display with a long press on the home button.
- Wipe the screen with a clean and dry microfibre cloth using small circular movements. If necessary, lightly moisten the microfibre cloth with clean water.
- Activate the display with a short press on the home button.
Important
The microfibre cloth used to clean the center display must be free from sand and dirt.
Important
When cleaning the center display, only use gentle pressure on the screen. Heavy pressure can damage the screen.
Important
Do not spray any liquid or caustic chemicals directly on the center display. Do not use window cleaning agents, other cleaning agents, aerosol spray, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or cleaning agents containing abrasives. Never use abrasive cloths, paper towels, or tissue paper, since they may scratch the center display.
Cleaning the driver display
Never use a cleaning agent. A special cleaning agent available from Volvo dealers can be used for more difficult cleaning.

Cleaning the leather steering wheel
Leather needs to breathe. Never cover the leather steering wheel with protective plastic. We recommend Volvo Leather Care Kit/Wipes for cleaning the leather steering wheel. First remove dirt, dust, etc. with a damp sponge or cloth.
Sharp objects, e.g. rings, can damage the leather on the steering wheel.
Cleaning the seatbelts
Use water and a synthetic detergent. A special textile cleaning agent is available from Volvo retailers. Ensure that the seatbelt is dry before allowing it to retract.
Cleaning the interior
- Certain items of colored clothing (e.g. dark jeans and suede garments) may stain the upholstery. If this occurs, it is important to clean and treat these parts of the upholstery as soon as possible.
- Never use strong solvents such as washer fluid, pure petrol or white spirit, or concentrated alcohol to clean the interior, since this may damage the upholstery as well as other interior materials.
- Never spray the cleaning agent directly onto components that have electrical buttons and controls. Wipe them instead using a moistened cloth containing the cleaning agent.
- Sharp objects and Velcro may damage the fabric upholstery.
- Only use cleaning agents on the type of material for which they were intended.
Cleaning textile floor and entrance mats
Remove inlaid carpets for separate cleaning of the floor carpet and the inlaid carpets. Each inlay mat is secured with pins.
- Remove the inlay mat by taking hold of the inlay mat at each pin and lifting the mat straight up.
Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust and dirt.
The inlay mats must not be swung around without care or hit against objects to remove dirt since this can crack the inlay mats.
- A textile cleaner is recommended for stains on the floor mat, after vacuuming.
- After cleaning, fit the inlay mat in place by pressing it in at each pin.
Warning
Only use one inlaid mat at each seat, and check before setting off that the mat by the driver’s seat is firmly affixed and secured in the pins so that it does not get caught adjacent to and under the pedals.
Cleaning interior plastic, metal, and wood parts
A fibrillated fiber or microfibre cloth, lightly moistened with water, available from Volvo dealers, is recommended for cleaning interior parts and surfaces.
Do not scrape or rub stains. Never use strong stain removers, either.
Do not use a solvent that contains alcohol when cleaning the glass for the driver display.
Cleaning leather upholstery
Leather upholstery is a natural product that changes and acquires a beautiful patina over time. Regular cleaning and treatment are required in order that the properties and colors of the leather shall be preserved. Volvo offers a comprehensive product, Volvo Leather Care KitWipes, for cleaning and treatment of leather upholstery. The protective outer layer of the leather is preserved when this is used according to the instructions.
To achieve results that are as good as possible, Volvo recommends cleaning and application of the protective cream one to four times per year (or more frequently if required). Volvo Leather Care Kit/Wipes are available from Volvo dealers.
Cleaning the leather upholstery
- Apply the leather cleaner to a damp sponge and squeeze until foam is created.
- Use the sponge on the stain in a circular motion.
- Thoroughly dampen the stain using the sponge, and allow the sponge to absorb the stain without scrubbing.
- Wipe the stain with a soft cloth and allow the leather to dry thoroughly.
Protecting the leather upholstery
- Apply a small amount of leather protective agent to a cloth and then apply it to the leather in light circular motions.
- Allow drying for about 20 minutes. Protecting the leather upholstery makes it more resistant to the stresses from the sun’s UV radiation.
