2007 V70 battery V70-XC70 2007

I'm getting ready to put in a new battery on my 2007 V70 wagon (original Volvo battery!). Would there be a benefits to doing a 'hot-swap' like not having to re-store a bunch of radio stations, re-setting clock, etc.?

Thanks!

Just clip a square 9V battery to the pos and neg terminals when you are ready to pull them off. You might want to turn off the tailgate light and keep the doors shut. The computers & radio take less than 9V.

Remember, the neg comes off first and goes on last.

Keeping it running is better than buying new
