13.5.3. Battery recycling
Used batteries must be recycled in an environmentally sound manner.
Consult Volvo support if you're unsure of how to dispose of batteries. The traction battery must only be handled by authorised
technicians.
13.5.4. Fuses
Electrical fuses protect different parts of the car's electrical system by cutting the power if the current
exceeds the fuse's threshold. A blown fuse must be replaced to restore functionality.
A blown fuse may be an indicator of an underlying electrical fault. Contact Volvo support if your car indicates that a fuse has
blown.
Important
If a fuse is incorrectly replaced it can cause severe damage to the electrical system.
A replacement fuse must have the correct specifications, such as type and ampere value.
Volvo recommends an authorised Volvo workshop for fuse replacements.
13.6. Tools and equipment
Your car is equipped with some tools that may be useful in certain situations. For example, if you need to
change a wheel.
The tools and equipment in your car are stored in different places, such as under the bonnet, in the glove box and in the boot.
Be sure to familiarise yourself with where everything is stored so you don't have to search for something when you need it.
Warning
Store tools appropriately
Always store loose tools and equipment in designated storage areas when not in use. Otherwise, they can cause damage
or injury in the event of a collision.
Read all instructions before using tools
Before use, make sure you read and understand all the relevant instructions for tools and equipment.
Contact a Volvo dealer for recommendations concerning tools and equipment for your car.
