Introduction:
Many Volvo Owners with older SC, CT & CR changer controlling radios are having
a difficult time finding an easy an effective way of connecting and listening to
Apple iPod devices in their cars. Many are turned away, offered an FM Modulator
recommend replacing the radio, but if none of those options pique your interest,
we offer the iP-VOLV. The iP-VOL works in 1984-04 Volvo SC, CR and CT changer
controlling radios and the only requirement is disconnect the external CD
changer* (if present), but with the storage capacity of iPod devices, sacrificing
the CD changer should be an easy decision.
Installation:
Radio must be pulled from the dash to connect the adapter.
Although not critical, we recommend disconnecting the car battery. Keep in mind
that most Volvo radios are coded and will not operate without the code. Radio
code must be available for radio to operate upon reconnection.

Frequently ask questions and troubleshooting
1. Does the IP-VOL work all Volvo radios
NO;the iP-VOL works only on Volvo SC, CT and CR changer controlling
radios. Radio model numbers are printed on radio face.
2. Can I use the radio buttons to control the Apple device
NO; Use Apple device built-in controls to navigate and access music.
3. Can I use the radio buttons to navigate the Apple device menu
NO; this adapter is not capable of browsing apple menus (i.e., Search by
Artist, Song, and Playlist etc.). You must use the Apple device built-in
controls to navigate its menus.
4. I’m getting alternator whine on the car speaker which was not present
prior to installing this adapter. What can be done to fix?
In most cases this can be fixed by installing a noise filter. The NF5A is a 5A
noise filter is available here.
