Volvo XC90: Creating and registering a Volvo ID / Accessory installation
We strongly recommend that Volvo owners install only genuine, Volvo-approved
accessories, and that accessory installations be performed only by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician. Certain functions only work when the associated
software is installed in the vehicle's computer system.
- Genuine Volvo accessories are tested to ensure compatibility with the performance,
safety, and emission systems in your vehicle. Additionally, a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician knows where accessories may and may not be safely installed
in your Volvo. In all cases, please consult a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician before installing any accessory in or on your vehicle.
- Accessories that have not been approved by Volvo may or may not be specifically
tested for compatibility with your vehicle.
- Any of your vehicle'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 vehicle.
- Damage caused by unapproved or improperly installed accessories may not
be covered by your new vehicle 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 nongenuine
accessories.
