2009 Volvo C70 Owners Manual

Location of dipstick and oil filler cap

Checking the oil 1. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a lint-

free rag.

2. Reinsert the dipstick, pull it out, and check

the oil level.

3. Add oil if necessary. If the level is close to

the MIN mark, add approximately 1 US quart (1 liter) of oil.

4. Run the engine until it reaches normal

operating temperature.

5. Switch off the engine and wait for at least 10–15 minutes and recheck the oil level. If

CAUTION

• Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine damage if the oil level becomes too low.

• Oil that is lower than the specified qual-

ity can damage the engine.

• Always add oil of the same type and

viscosity as already used.

• Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This could cause an increase in oil consump- tion.

WARNING

Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into contact with hot exhaust pipe surfaces

NOTE

Volvo uses different systems to indicate a low oil level or pressure. Some models have an oil pressure sensor, in which case a warning symbol (see page 53) is used to indicate low oil pressure. Other models have an oil level sensor, in which case the driver is alerted by the warning symbol in the cen- ter of the instrument panel and a text in the information display. Some models use both systems. Contact an authorized Volvo retailer for more information.

Fluids

Washer fluid

Coolant

Washer fluid reservoir The washer fluid reservoir is located in the engine compartment and holds approximately 6.8 US qts (6.5 liters). During cold weather, the reservoir should be filled with windshield washer solvent containing antifreeze.

Coolant reservoir Normally, the coolant does not need to be changed. If the system must be drained, con- sult a trained and qualified Volvo service tech- nician.

212

CAUTION

• If necessary, top up the cooling system with Volvo Genuine Coolant/Antifreeze only (a 50/50 mix of water and anti- freeze).

• Different types of antifreeze/coolant

may not be mixed.

• If the cooling system is drained, it

should be flushed with clean water or premixed anti-freeze before it is refilled with the correct mixture of water/anti- freeze.

• The cooling system must always be

kept filled to the correct level, and the level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. If it is not kept filled, there can be high local temperatures in the engine which could result in damage. Check coolant regularly!

• Do not top up with water only. This reduces the rust-protective and anti- freeze qualities of the coolant and has a lower boiling point. It can also cause damage to the cooling system if it should freeze.

• Do not use chlorinated tap water in the

vehicles cooling system.

09 Maintenance and servicing

Fluids

09

WARNING

Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is warm. Wait until the vehicle cools. If it is necessary to top off the coolant when the engine is warm, unscrew the expansion tank cap slowly so that the overpressure dissipates.

Brake fluid

Brake fluid reservoir The brake fluid should always be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of the reser- voir. Check, without removing the cap, that there is sufficient fluid in the reservoir.

Fluid type: DOT 4+ boiling point >536 °F (280 °C), P/N 9437433
Replace: The fluid should be replaced accord- ing to the intervals specified in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. When driving under extremely hard conditions (mountain driving, etc), it may be necessary to replace the fluid more often. Consult your Volvo retailer. Always entrust brake fluid changing to a trained and qualified Volvo serv- ice technician.

Power steering fluid The fluid level is checked at each service inter- val. Fluid type: Volvo power steering fluid or equiv- alent. Replace: No fluid change required.

WARNING

If a problem should occur in the power steering system or if the vehicle has no elec- trical current and must be towed, it is still possible to steer the vehicle. However, keep in mind that greater effort will be required to turn the steering wheel.

Wiper blades

Replacing windshield wiper blades

Keeping the windshield wiper blades clean helps improve visibility and prolongs the serv- ice life of the wiper blades. See page 196 for washing instructions.

1. Fold out the wiper arm. 2. Press the button on the wiper blade attach- ment and pull straight out (1), parallel with the wiper arm.

3. Press a new wiper blade (2) until it clicks

into place.

4. Ensure the blade is securely attached (3). 5. Fold in the wiper arm. The wiper blades are different lengths. The blade on the driver's side is longer than the one on the passenger's side.

214

Battery maintenance Driving habits and conditions, climate, the number of starts, etc., all affect the service life and function of the battery. In order for your battery to perform satisfactorily, keep the fol- lowing in mind: Check the fluid level in each cell in the battery every 24 months or every 15,0001 miles (24,000 km), whichever is sooner. • Use a screw driver to open the caps or

cover and a flashlight to inspect the level. • If necessary, add distilled water. The level

should never be above the indicator.

• The fluid level should be checked if the

battery has been recharged.

• After inspection, be sure the cap over each

battery cell or the cover is securely in place.

• Check that the battery cables are correctly

connected and properly tightened.

• Never disconnect the battery when the

engine is running, or when the key is in the ignition. This could damage the vehicle's electrical system.

• The battery should be disconnected from the vehicle when a battery charger is used directly on the battery.

1 More frequently in warm climates.

Fuses

Replacing fuses There are relay/fuse boxes located in the engine compartment and the passenger com- partment. If an electrical component fails to function, this may be due to a blown fuse. The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it. To do so: 1. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult to remove, special fuse removal tools are located on the inside of the fuse box cov- ers.

2. From the side, examine the curved metal

3.

wire in the fuse to see if it is intact. If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse of the same color and amperage (written on the fuse).

If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.

WARNING

Never use metal objects or fuses with higher amperage than those stated on the follow- ing pages. Doing so could seriously damage or overload the vehicle's electrical system.

224

Fuse box in the engine compartment

The fuse box in the engine compartment has positions for 36 fuses. • Fuses 1–18 are relays/circuit breakers and should only be removed or replaced by an authorized Volvo service technician.

• Fuses 19–36 may be changed at any time

when necessary.

Several extra fuses and a fuse removal tool to assist in removing/replacing fuses can be found on the underside of the fuse box cover in the engine compartment.

NOTE

NOTE

The system supports playback of files in the most common versions of formats such as mp3, wma, and wav. However, there may be versions of these formats that the system does not support.

USB flash drive To simplify the use of a USB flash drive, it is advisable to only store music files on the drive. It will take considerably longer for the system to index the files on the drive if it contains any- thing other than compatible music files.

MP3 player Many mp3 players have a file indexing system that is not supported by the vehicle's audio system. In order to use an mp3 player, the sys- tem must be set to USB Removable device/ Mass Storage Device.

iPod An iPod receives current and its battery is charged through the connecting cord. How- ever, if the iPod's battery is completely drained, it should be recharged before the iPod is connected to the audio system.

When an iPOD is used as a sound source, the vehicle's audio system has a menu structure similar to the one in the iPOD. See the iPOD's manual for detailed information.

For further information, refer to the accessory manual USB/iPod Music Interface.

Sound settings

Optimal sound reproduction The audio system is calibrated for optimal sound reproduction through the use of digital signal processing. This calibration takes into account the speakers, amplifier, cabin acous- tics, the seating position of the listener, etc., for each combination of vehicle and audio system. There is also dynamic calibration that takes into account the setting of the volume control, radio reception, and the vehicle's speed. The sound settings described in this manual, such as BASS, TREBLE, and EQUALIZER are only intended to enable the user to adapt sound reproduction to his/her personal preferences. 1. Press SOUND (5). Press this button

repeatedly until you come to the setting that you wish to change.

2. Turn the TUNING dial (4) to make the

desired setting.

The following settings can be made: BASS–set the bass level TREBLE–set the treble level BALANCE–set the left/right sound balance FADER–set the front/rear sound balance SUBWOOFER (accessory)–set the level for the subwoofer (bass speaker) CENTER–make settings for the center speaker SURROUND–make settings for surround sound

Subwoofer (accessory) To switch the subwoofer on or off: 1. Press MENU followed by ENTER. 2. Select AUDIO SETTINGS and press

ENTER.

3. Select SUBWOOFER and press ENTER.

Surround sound

Surround sound settings are used to balance sound levels throughout the vehicle. Surround settings for the various sound sources are made

separately.

NOTE

• Dolby Surround Pro Logic II is only
