Volvo has determined that 1985 models within the VIN ranges listed below will require the installation of a magnet into the power steering pump
reservoir. The purpose of this magnet is to ensure that any metal particles which may be in the system stay within the reservoir and do not travel
throughout the entire system, possibly causing premature wear.

In order to assist you, enclosed along with the magnets, is a computer printout copy listing those vehicles wholesaled to you, as well as those you have
retailed. If no list or magnets are enclosed, then our records indicate no vehicles within this VIN span were wholesaled to your dealership.
Vehicles in Dealer stock must have the magnet inserted prior to retailing the vehicle. Vehicles which have been retailed must have the magnet inserted at
the next maintenance service, e.g. 600-1200 mile service.
IMPORTANT:
After the procedure on the next page is performed, place a red dot on the rear facing end of the left front door near the Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards Label.
NOTE:
SOME VEHICLES MAY ALREADY HAVE HAD THE MAGNET INSTALLED. CHECK FOR THE RED DOT ON THE DOOR JAMB.
