2004 Volvo S60 Owners Manual

The Comfort mode chassis setting offers the greatest amount of shock absorption and the softest ride. This mode is recommended for long-distance driving, or when driving in slippery conditions.

If Comfort mode was selected when the engine was switched off, this mode will be active when the engine is restarted.

Sport In this mode, shock absorption is stiffer to reduce the car's body sway during cornering and to provide more immediate steering response.

If this setting was selected when the engine was switched off, Sport mode will be active when the engine is restarted.

Advanced Sport In this mode, movement of the shock absorbers is minimal, response from pressure on the throttle pedal is more direct, and body sway in curves or when cornering is sharply reduced.

If Advanced sport mode was selected when the engine was switched off, Sport mode will be active when the engine is restarted.

Brake system

BRAKE Brake circuit malfunction The brake system is a hydraulic system consisting of two master cylinders and two separate brake circuits. If a problem should occur in one of these circuits, it is still possible to stop the car with the other brake circuit.

If the brake pedal must be depressed farther than normal and requires greater foot pressure, the stopping distance will be longer.

A warning light in the instrument panel will light up to warn the driver that a fault has occurred.

If this light comes on while driving or braking, stop immediately and check the brake fluid level in the reservoir.

NOTE: Press the brake pedal hard and maintain pressure on the pedal Ð do not pump the brakes.

WARNING!

If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the reservoir or if a "Brake failure - Service urgent" message is displayed in the text window: DO NOT DRIVE. Have the car towed to a Volvo retailer and have the brake system inspected.

NOTE: When the car is at a standstill and the engine is idling, e.g. at a traffic light and the brake pedal is depressed, the pedal may go down slightly. This is a normal function of the power-assisted brake system.

Power brakes function only when the engine is running The power brakes utilize vacuum pressure which is only created when the engine is running. Never let the vehicle roll to a stop with the engine switched off.

If the power brakes are not working, the brake pedal must be pressed approximately four times harder than usual to make up for the lack of power assistance. This can happen for example when towing your vehicle or if the engine is switched off when the vehicle is rolling. The brake pedal feels harder than usual.

Water on brake discs and brake pads affects braking Driving in rain and slush or passing through an automatic car wash can cause water to collect on the brake discs and pads. This will cause a delay in braking effect when the pedal is depressed. To avoid such a delay when the brakes are needed, depress the pedal occasionally when driving through rain, slush etc. This will remove the water from the brakes. Check that brake application feels normal. This should also be done after washing or starting in very damp or cold weather.

Severe strain on the brake system The brakes will be subject to severe strain when driving in mountains or hilly areas or towing. Vehicle speed is usually slower, which means that the cooling of the brakes is less efficient than when driving on level roads. To reduce the strain on the brakes, shift into a lower gear and let the engine help with the braking. Do not forget that, if you are towing a trailer, the brakes will be subjected to a greater than normal load.

pg. 93 Starting and driving

Brake system (contd)

Anti-lock brakes (ABS)

If the warning lamp lights up there is a malfunction of the ABS system (the standard braking system will however

function) and the vehicle should be driven cautiously to a Volvo retailer for inspection. The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) helps to improve vehicle control (stopping and steering) during severe braking conditions by limiting brake lockup. When the system "senses" impending lockup, braking pressure is automatically modulated in order to help prevent lockup, which could lead to a skid.

The system performs a self-diagnostic test when the engine is started and when the vehicle first reaches a speed of approximately 12 mph (20 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several times and a sound may be audible from the ABS control module. This is normal.

To obtain optimal effect from the ABS system, constant pressure should be kept on the brake pedal, keep constant pressure on the brake pedal. Do not pump the brake pedal.

The switching of the ABS modulator will be audible and the brake pedal will pulsate during braking. Please be aware that ABS does not increase the absolute braking potential of the vehicle. While control will be enhanced, ABS will not shorten stopping distances on slippery surfaces.

ABS with EBD (Electronic Brake Force Distribution) EBD is an integrated part of the ABS system. EBD regulates the hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes to help provide optimal braking capacity. The brake pedal will pulsate during braking, which is normal.

If the BRAKE and ABS warning lights come on at the same time, this could indicate a fault in the brake system.

Stop the car in a suitable place and switch off the engine. Restart the engine. If both warning lights go off, no further action is required. If both lights are still on after the engine has been restarted, switch off the engine again and check the brake fluid

level (see page 124 for the location of the brake fluid reservoir).

WARNING!

If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the reservoir or if a "Brake failure - Service urgent" message is displayed in the text window: DO NOT DRIVE. Have the car towed to a Volvo retailer and have the brake system inspected.

If the brake fluid level is above the MIN mark, drive carefully to an authorized Volvo retailer and have the brake

system inspected.

General information

General information about wheels and tires Your vehicle is equipped with tires according to the tire information label on the inside of the fuel filler door.

All tires have a dimension designation.

Example of designation: 215/55R16. 215 section width (mm) 55 relationship between section height and width R radial tire 16 wheel rim diameter (")

The tires have good road holding characteristics and offer good handling on dry and wet surfaces. It should be noted however that the tires have been developed to give these features on snow/ice-free surfaces.

Certain models are equipped with "all-season" tires, which provide a somewhat higher degree of road holding on slippery surfaces than tires without the "all-season" rating. However, for optimum road holding on icy or snow-covered roads - we recommend suitable winter tires on all four wheels. When replacing tires, be sure that the new tires are the same size designation, type (radial) and preferably from the same manufacturer, on all four wheels. Otherwise there is a risk of altering the car's roadholding and handling characteristics.

NOTE: When storing wheel/tire assemblies (e.g. winter tires and wheels), either stand the assemblies upright, or suspend them off the ground. Laying wheel/tire assemblies on their sides for prolonged periods can cause wheel and/or tire damage.

 New tires

Remember that tires are perishable goods. As of 2000, the manufacturing week and year will be indicated with 4 digits (e.g. 1502 means that the tire illustrated was manufactured during week 15 of 2002).

Improving tire economy:

Maintain correct tire pressure. See the tire pressure label on the inside of the fuel filler door. Drive smoothly: avoid fast starts, hard braking and tire screeching. Tire wear increases with speed. Correct front wheel alignment is very important. Unbalanced wheels impair tire economy and driving comfort. If tires are rotated, they must be kept on the same side of the car so that they revolve in the same direction as before

rotation.

Hitting curbs or potholes can damage the tires and/or wheels permanently.

Flat spots All tires become warm during use. After cooling, when the vehicle is parked, the tires have a tendency to distort slightly, forming flat spots. These flat spots can cause vibrations similar to the vibrations caused by unbalanced wheels. They do, however, disappear when the tire warms up. The degree to which flat spots form depends on the type of cord used in the tire. In cold weather, it takes longer for the tire to warm up and consequently longer for the flat spot to disappear.

CAUTION:

mounted on R-models.

The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with

the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission.

R-models only: 16" wheels may not be used. Consult your Volvo retailer about the types of wheels that may be

pg. 109 Wheels and tires

Snow chains Snow chains can be used on your Volvo with the following restrictions:

Snow chains should be installed on front wheels only. Use only Volvo approved snow chains. Special snow chains must be mounted on 195/65 R15. For tires of other dimensions, consult your Volvo retailer. If accessory, aftermarket or "custom" tires and wheels are installed and are of a size different than the original tires and wheels, chains in some cases CANNOT be used. Sufficient clearances between chains and brakes, suspension and body components must be maintained.

Some strap-on type chains will interfere with brake components and therefore CANNOT be used. All Wheel Drive models : Snow chains should only be installed on the front wheels. Only chains adapted for AWD

models should be used.

NOTE: Consult your Volvo retailer for additional snow chain information

CAUTION: Check local regulations regarding the use of snow chains before installing Always follow the chain manufacturer's installation instructions carefully. Install chains as tightly as possible and retighten periodically. Never exceed the chain manufacturer's specified maximum speed limit. (Under no circumstances should you exceed 31

mph (50 km/h) Avoid bumps, holes or sharp turns when driving with snow chains. The handling of the vehicle can be adversely affected when driving with chains. Avoid fast or sharp turns as well as locked wheel braking.

Snow tires, studded tires *

Tires for winter use:

Owners who live in or regularly commute through areas with sustained periods of snow or icy driving conditions are strongly advised to fit suitable winter tires to help retain the highest degree of traction.

It is important to install winter tires on all four wheels to help retain traction during cornering, braking, and accelerating. Failure to do so could reduce traction to an unsafe level or adversely affect handling. Do not mix tires of different design as this could also negatively affect overall tire road grip.

Volvo recommends 195/65 R15 (205/55R16 on turbo models) winter tires on all four wheels.

Winter tires wear more quickly on dry roads in warm weather. They should be removed when the winter driving season has ended.

Studded tires should be run-in 300-600 miles (500-1000 km) during which the car should be driven as smoothly as possible to give the studs the opportunity to seat properly in the tires. The tires should have the same rotational direction throughout their entire lifetime. In other words, if you wish to rotate the wheels, make sure that the same wheels are always on the same side of the car.

NOTE: Please consult state or provincial regulations restricting the use of studded winter tires before installing such tires.

* Where permitted

pg. 110 Wheels and tires

Tire pressure

Tire pressure label

Checking and correcting tire pressure The tire pressure label is located on the inside of the fuel filler door.

Check the tire pressure regularly. The tire pressure should be corrected only when the tires are cold.

 With warm tires, correct only when the pressure is too low. The tire temperature rises after driving just a few miles.

Vehicle loading The tires on your Volvo will perform to specifications at all normal loads when inflated as recommended on the tire information label located on the inside of the fuel filler door. This label lists both tire and vehicle design limits. Do not load your car beyond the load limits indicated.

WARNING!

Improperly inflated tires will reduce tire life, adversely affect vehicle handling and can possibly lead to failure resulting in loss of vehicle control without prior warning.

Temporary Spare The spare tire in your car is called a "Temporary Spare". It has the following designation: T125/80 R17. The temporary spare in the S60R has the designation T115/85/R18.

Recommended tire pressure (see decal on Fuel filler door) should be maintained irrespective of which position on the car the Temporary Spare tire is used on. In the event of damage to this tire, a new one can be purchased from your Volvo retailer.

WARNING!

Current legislation prohibits the use of the "Temporary Spare" tire other than as a temporary replacement for a punctured tire. It must be replaced as soon as possible by a standard tire. Road holding and handling may be affected with the "Temporary Spare" in use. Do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h). Do not drive farther than 50 miles (80 km) on a temporary spare tire.

CAUTION: The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission.

NOTE: Certain models may be equipped with a full-size spare tire. When used, it should be inflated to the same pressure as the tire it is replacing.

pg. 111 Wheels and tires

Tread wear indicators

Tires have tread wear indicators The tires have wear indicator strips running across or parallel to the tread.

When approx. 1/16" (1.6 mm) is left on the tread, these strips become visible and indicate that the tire should be replaced.

Tires with less than 1/16" (1.6 mm) tread have a very poor grip in rain or snow.

When replacing worn tires, it is recommended that the tire be identical in type (radial) and size as the one being replaced. Using a tire of the same make (manufacturer) will prevent alteration of the driving characteristics of the vehicle.

pg. 112 Wheels and tires

Changing wheels

Insert flat end of lug wrench and turn/pull straight out

Changing wheels The spare wheel is located under the carpet on the trunk floor. The jack and crank are secured in the wheel recess.

There are two jack attachment points on each side of the car (see illustration on next page). To change a wheel:

Engage the parking brake. Put the gear selector in (P)ark (automatic transmission) or reverse (manual transmission).

Remove the wheel cap (where applicable) using the lug wrench in the tool bag. With the car still on the ground, use the lug wrench to loosen the wheel bolts 1/2 - 1 turn. Turn the bolts

counterclockwise to loosen.

Loosen the wheel bolts

CAUTION: The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission.

Correct tightening torque on wheel bolts must be observed. The wheel bolts should never be greased or lubricated. The extended, chromed wheel bolts must not be used with steel rims, as they make it impossible to fit the hub caps.

pg. 113 Wheels and tires

Attaching the jack

Position the jack correctly on the bar in the attachment (see illustration above) and crank while simultaneously guiding the base of the jack to the ground. The base of the jack must be flat on a level, firm, non-slippery surface. Before raising the car, check that the jack is still correctly positioned in the attachment.

Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be changed is lifted off the ground. Unscrew the wheel bolts completely and carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the threads on the studs.

NOTE: To avoid excessive wear and the necessity of rebalancing, mark and reinstall wheels in the same location and position as before removal. To lessen the chance of imbalance, each wheel hub is equipped with a guide stud to ensure that a removed wheel can be reinstalled in its original position (as when changing over to winter tires/wheels).

Installing the wheel

Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel and hub. Lift the wheel and place it on the hub. Install the wheel bolts and tighten hand-tight. Using the lug wrench, tighten crosswise until all bolts are snug. Lower the vehicle to the ground and alternately tighten the bolts crosswise to 102 ft. lbs. (140 Nm). Install the wheel cap (where applicable).

WARNING!

The jack must correctly engage the bar in the jack attachment. The car's weight must not rest on the jack attachment. See illustration "Attaching the jack" above. Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-slippery surface. Never allow any part of your body to be extended under a car supported by a jack. Use the jack intended for the car

when replacing a wheel. For any other job, use stands to support the side of the car being worked on. Apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in the (P)ark position (or reverse on manual transmissions). Block the wheels standing on the ground, use rigid wooden blocks or large stones. The jack should be kept well- greased.

pg. 114 Wheels and tires

Uniform Tire Quality Grading

ALL PASSENGER CAR TIRES MUST CONFORM TO FEDERAL SAFETY REQUIREMENTS IN ADDITION TO THESE GRADES

Quality grades can be found, where applicable, on the tire sidewall between the tread shoulder and maximum section width. For example: Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A

TREADWEAR The treadwear grade is a comparative rating based on the wear rate of the tire when tested under controlled conditions on a specified government test course. For example, a tire graded 150 would wear one and one half (1 1/2) times as well on the government course as a tire graded 100. The relative performance of tires depends upon the actual conditions of their use, however, and many depart significantly from the norm due to variation in driving habits, service practices and differences in road characteristics and climate.

TRACTION The traction grades, from highest to lowest, are AA, A, B, and C, as measured under controlled conditions on specified government test surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire marked C may have poor traction performance.

WARNING!

The traction grade assigned to this tire is based on braking (straight-ahead) traction tests and is not a measure of cornering (turning) traction.

TEMPERATURE The temperature grades are AA (the highest), A, B, and C, representing the tire's resistance to the generation of heat and its ability to dissipate heat when tested under controlled conditions on a specified indoor laboratory test wheel. Sustained high temperature can cause the material of the tire to degenerate and reduce tire life, and excessive temperature can lead to sudden tire failure. The grade C corresponds to a minimum level of performance that all passenger car tires must meet under the Federal Motor Safety Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent higher levels of performance on the laboratory test wheel than the minimum required by law.

WARNING!

The temperature grade for this tire is established for a tire that is properly inflated and not overloaded. Excessive speed, under-inflation, or excessive loading, either separately or in combination, can cause heat buildup and possible tire failure.

pg. 116 Car care

Washing and cleaning the car

The car should be washed at regular intervals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spots adhere to the paint and may cause

damage. It is particularly important to wash the car frequently in the wintertime to prevent corrosion, when salt has been used on the roads.

When washing the car, do not expose it to direct sunlight. Use lukewarm water to soften the dirt before you wash

with a sponge, and plenty of water, to avoid scratching.

Bird droppings: Remove from paintwork as soon as possible. Otherwise the finish may be permanently damaged. A detergent can be used to facilitate the softening of dirt and oil. A water-soluble grease solvent may be used in cases of sticky dirt. However, use a wash place equipped with a

drainage separator.

Dry the car with a clean chamois and remember to clean the drain holes in the doors and rocker panels. Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover after the car has been washed. A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapy water can be used to clean the wiper blades. Frequent cleaning improves

visibility considerably.

Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel housings, fenders, etc.). In areas of high industrial fallout, more frequent washing is recommended.

CAUTION: During high pressure washing, the spray mouthpiece must never be closer to the vehicle than 13" (30 cm). Do not spray into the locks. When washing or steam cleaning the engine, avoid spraying water or steam directly on the electrical components or toward the rear side of the engine.

Special moonroof cautions:

Always close the moonroof and sun shade before washing your vehicle. Never use abrasive cleaning agents on the moonroof. Never use wax on the rubber seals around the moonroof.

After cleaning the engine, the spark plug wells should be inspected for water and blown dry if necessary.

Suitable detergents: Special car washing detergents should be used. A suitable mixture is about 2.5 fl. oz. (8.5 cl) of detergent to 2.6 US gal. (10 liters) of warm water. After washing with a detergent the car should be well rinsed with clean water.

Bumpers: Wash the bumpers with the same cleaning agent used on the rest of the car. Never clean the bumpers with gasoline or paint thinner. Difficult spots can be removed with denatured alcohol. To avoid scratches, do not dry the bumpers with paper.

NOTE: When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills.

Automatic car wash An automatic car wash is a simple and quick way of washing the car. Bear in mind, however, that an automatic car wash can never replace a proper handwashing. During the first months of the car's life - while the paint is still curing - we recommend that you handwash the car.

WARNING!

When the car is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brakes several times in order to remove any moisture from the brake linings. Engine cleaning agents should not be used when the engine is warm. This constitutes a fire risk.

pg. 117 Car care

Automatic washing - simple and quick

We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the first six months (because the paint will

not have hardened sufficiently).

An automatic wash is a simple and quick way to clean your car, but it is worth remembering that it may not be as

thorough as when you yourself go over the car with sponge and water. Keeping the underbody clean is most important, especially in the winter. Some automatic washers do not have facilities for washing the underbody.

Before driving into an automatic car wash, make sure that side view mirrors, auxiliary lamps, etc, are secure, and

that any antenna( s) are retracted or removed. Otherwise there is risk of the machine dislodging them.

Polishing and Waxing

Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery, however, waxing may be beneficial. Before applying polish or wax the car must be washed and dried. Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar

remover. Difficult spots may require a fine rubbing compound.

After polishing use liquid or paste wax. Several commercially available products contain both polish and wax. Waxing alone does not substitute for polishing a dull surface. A wide range of polymer-based car waxes can be purchased today. These waxes are easy to use and produce a

long-lasting, high-gloss finish that protects the bodywork against oxidation, road dirt and fading.

Do not polish or wax your car in direct sunlight (the surface of the car should not be warmer than 113° F (45° C).

Cleaning the upholstery

The fabric can be cleaned with soapy water or a detergent. For more difficult spots caused by oil, ice cream, shoe

polish, grease, etc., use a clothing/fabric stain remover.

The plastic in the upholstery can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution. Leather upholstery/suede-like upholstery (alcanteraTM) can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution. For

more difficult spots, Volvo offers a leather care kit.

Under no circumstances should gasoline, naphtha or similar cleaning agents be used on the plastic or the leather

since these can cause damage.

Cleaning the seat belts Clean only with lukewarm water and a mild soap solution.

Cleaning floor mats The floor mats should be vacuumed or brushed clean regularly, especially during winter when they should be taken out for drying. Spots on textile mats can be removed with a mild detergent.

Bear in mind

Take extra care when removing stains such as ink or lipstick since the coloring can spread. Use solvents sparingly. Too much solvent can damage the seat padding. Start from the outside of the stain and work toward the center.

pg. 118 Car care

Paint touch up

Paint damage requires immediate attention to avoid rusting. Make it a habit to check the finish regularly - when washing the car for instance. Touch-up if necessary.

Paint repairs require special equipment and skill. Contact your Volvo retailer for any extensive damage.

Minor scratches can be repaired by using Volvo touch-up paint.

NOTE: When ordering touch-up paint from your Volvo retailer, use the paint code indicated on the model plate. The plate is located in the engine compartment.

Color code Make sure you have the right color. The color code number is on the data plate in the engine compartment.

Minor stone chips and scratches Material:

Primer - can Paint - touch-up pen Brush Masking tape If the stone chip has not gone down to the bare metal and an undamaged color coat remains, you can add paint

immediately after removing dirt.

NOTE: When touching up the car, it should be clean and dry. The surface temperature should be above 60° F (15° C).

Minor scratches on the surface If the stone chip has not penetrated down to the metal and an undamaged layer of paint remains, the touch-up paint can be applied as soon as the spot has been cleaned.

Deep scratches 1. Place a strip of masking tape over the damaged surface. Pull the tape off so that any loose flakes of paint adhere to it. 2. Thoroughly mix the primer and apply it with a small brush.

When the primer surface is dry, the paint can be applied using a brush. Mix the paint thoroughly; apply several thin paint coats and let dry after each application.

3. If there is a longer scratch, you may want to protect surrounding paint by masking it off.

Volvo service

Maintenance service Volvo advises you to follow the service program outlined in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. This maintenance program contains inspections and services necessary for the proper function of your car. The maintenance services contain several checks which require special instruments and tools and therefore must be performed by a qualified technician. To keep your Volvo in top condition, specify time-tested and proven Genuine Volvo Parts and Accessories.

The Federal Clean Air Act - U. S. The Federal Clean Air Act requires vehicle manufacturers to furnish written instructions to the ultimate purchaser to assure the proper servicing and function of the components that control emissions. These services, which are listed in the "Warranty and Service Records Information booklet," are not covered by the warranty. You will be required to pay for labor and material used.

Maintenance services Your Volvo passed several major inspections before it was delivered to you, in accordance with Volvo specifications. The maintenance services outlined in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet, many of which will positively affect your vehicle's emissions, should be performed as indicated. It is recommended that receipts for vehicle emission services be retained in case questions arise concerning maintenance.

Inspection and service should also be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected.

Page 121 provides more information about maintenance of emission-related components.

Vehicle Event Data Your vehicle's driving and safety systems employ computers that monitor, and share with each other, information about your vehicle's operation. One or more of these computers may store what they monitor, either during normal

vehicle operation or in a crash or near-crash event. Stored information may be read and used by:

Volvo Car Corporation service and repair facilities law enforcement or government agencies others who may assert a legal right to know, or who obtain your consent to know such information.

Applicable warranties - U.S.

In accordance with applicable U.S. and Canadian regulations, the following list of warranties is provided

New Car Limited Warranty Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty Corrosion Protection Limited Warranty Seat Belt and Supplemental Restraint Systems Limited Warranty Emission Design and Defect Warranty Emission Performance Warranty

These are the Federal warranties; other warranties are provided as required by state/provincial law. Refer to your separate Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for detailed information concerning each of the warranties.

pg. 121 Maintenance and service

Periodic maintenance helps minimize emissions Periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle running well. Your Warranty and Service Records Information booklet provides a comprehensive periodic maintenance schedule up to 150,000 miles (240,000 km) of vehicle service. The schedule includes components that affect vehicle emissions. This page describes some of the emission-related components.

Engine air filter The engine air filter cleans particles from air entering the engine. Replace the engine air filter cartridge with a new one every 37,500 miles (60,000 km) under normal driving conditions. Replace the cartridge more often when the vehicle is driven under dirty and dusty conditions. The cartridge cannot be cleaned, and should always be replaced with a new one.

Fuel filter The fuel filter should be replaced at 105,000 miles (168,000 km). The filter is replaced as one complete unit. Replace more frequently if contaminated fuel is introduced into the tank, or if there is reason to suspect that this has occurred.

Fuel system, including filler cap, tank and lines and connections The ability of the fuel system to contain hydrocarbons is dependent upon a leak-free system. Inspect fuel lines every 30,000 miles (48,000 km). Check for proper sealing of the fuel filler cap which contains "O" ring type seals.

NOTE: If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Check Engine light (Malfunction Indicator) may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps.

Timing belt For proper functioning of the engine and emission control systems, the timing belt and belt tensioner must be replaced every 105,000 miles (168,000 km). Engine damage will occur if the belt fails.

PCV system (on turbocharged models) The nipple in the intake manifold and the filter at the end of the PCV hose in the air cleaner should be inspected at

105,000 miles (168,000 km) and again at 150,000 miles (240,000 km).

Spark plugs The spark plugs should be replaced every 60,000 miles (96,000 km) under normal driving conditions. City driving or fast highway driving may necessitate replacement sooner. Under normal driving conditions, spark plugs require no maintenance between replacement intervals. When installing new plugs, be sure to use the right type and to tighten them correctly. When changing the plugs, clean the terminals and rubber seals. Also check that the suppressor connectors are in good condition. Cracked or damaged connectors should be replaced.

pg. 122 Maintenance and service

Working on your car

Note the following before you begin working on your car: Battery

Ensure that the battery cables are correctly connected and tightened. Never disconnect the battery when the engine is running (e.g. when replacing the battery). Never use a fast charger to charge the battery. The battery cables should be disconnected when recharging. The battery contains acid that is both corrosive and poisonous. It is important that the battery is handled in an

environmentally friendly way. Let your Volvo dealer assist you.

Hoisting the car If a garage jack is used to lift the car, the two jack attachments points should be used. They are specially reinforced to bear the weight of the car. A garage jack can also be placed under the front of the engine support frame. Take care not to damage the splash guard under the engine. Ensure that the jack is positioned so that the car cannot slide off it. Always use axle stands or similar structures.

If a two-post hoist is used to lift the car, the front and rear lift arm pads should be centered under the reinforced lift plates on the inboard edge of the sill rail (see illustration).

WARNING!

The car ignition system has very high voltage!

The voltage in the ignition system is dangerous!

Do not touch spark plugs, ignition cables or the ignition coil when the engine is running or the ignition is switched on!

The ignition should be switched off when:

Conducting engine tests. Replacing parts in the ignition system, such as spark plugs, ignition coil, distributor, ignition cables, etc.

WARNING!

Never try to repair any part of the SRS or SIPS bag systems yourself. Any interference in the system could cause malfunction and serious injury. Any work should only be performed by an authorized Volvo workshop.

pg. 123 Maintenance and service

Belt check Check the belt regularly to make sure it is in good condition and is clean. A worn or dirty belt can cause poor cooling and low alternator output as well as impair the operation of the power steering and the air conditioning unit.

NOTE: The drive belt is equipped with a self-tensioning mechanism and requires no adjustment between changes!

WARNING!

The engine must not be running when this check is performed.

Check coolant level The cooling system must be filled with coolant and not leak to operate at maximum efficiency. Check the coolant level regularly. The level should be between the "MAX" and "MIN" marks on the expansion tank. The check should be made with particular thoroughness when the engine is new or when the cooling system has been drained.

Do not remove the filler cap other than for topping up with coolant. Frequent removal may prevent coolant circulation between the engine and the expansion tank during engine warm up and cooling.

Changing coolant Normally, the coolant does not need to be changed. If the system must be drained, consult your Volvo retailer.

NOTE: Do not top off with water only. This reduces the rust-protective and antifreeze qualities of the coolant and has a lower boiling point. It can also cause damage to the cooling system if it should freeze. Top off with Volvo Genuine Coolant/Antifreeze only (a 50/50 mix of water and antifreeze).

CAUTION: The cooling system must always be kept filled to the correct level. If it is not kept filled, there can be high local temperatures in the engine which could result in damage. Different types of antifreeze/coolant may not be mixed.

Oils and fluids

Oil quality Engine oil must meet the minimum ILSAC specification GF-2, including ACEA A1, API SJ, SJ/CF and SJ/ Energy Conserving.

Your Volvo has been certified to standards using ILSAC oil specification GF-2 5W-30. Volvo recommends use of oil with a quality rating equal to or higher than ILSAC GF-2. Equivalent and better oils include ACEA A1, API SJ, SJ/CF, and SJ/Energy conserving. Lower quality oils may not offer the same fuel economy, engine performance, or engine protection. Volvo Cars recommends Castrol. Depending on your driving habits, premium or synthetic oils may provide superior fuel economy and engine protection. Consult your Volvo retailer for recommendations on premium or synthetic oils.

Oil additives must not be used.

NOTE: Synthetic oil is not used when the oil is changed at normal maintenance services. This oil is only used at customer request, at additional charge. Please consult your Volvo retailer.

Operation in hot climates

When temperatures exceed 86° F (30° C) in your area, Volvo recommends, for the protection of your engine, that you use a heavier weight oil, such as SAE 10W/30. See the viscosity chart below.

Oil viscosity (stable ambient temperatures) Operation in temperate climates Incorrect viscosity oil can shorten engine life. Under normal use when temperatures do not exceed 86° F (30° C), SAE 5W/30 will provide good fuel economy and engine protection. See the viscosity chart above.

Extreme engine operation Synthetic oils meeting SAE 10W/30 and complying with oil quality requirements are recommended for driving in areas of sustained temperature extremes (hot or cold), when towing a trailer over long distances, and for prolonged driving in mountainous areas.

Changing oil and oil filter Oil and oil filter changes should be made at 7,500 mile (12,000 km) intervals.

Volvo does not recommend the use of oil additives.

Synthetic oil is not used when the oil is changed at the normal maintenance service intervals.

 The API Service Symbol "donut" is divided into three parts: The top half describes the oil's performance level. The center identifies the oil's viscosity. The bottom half tells whether the oil has demonstrated energy-conserving properties in a standard test in

comparison to a reference oil.

pg. 126 Maintenance and service

Oils and fluids (Contd)

Checking the oil level The oil level should be checked every time the car is refueled. This is especially important during the period up to the first service.

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

Park the car on a level surface and wait for at least 5 minutes after the engine has been switched off. Be sure the oil level is maintained between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick. Low oil level can cause internal damage to the engine and overfilling can result in high oil consumption. The distance between the dipstick marks represents approx. 1.6 US qt (1.5 liter). The oil should preferably be checked when cold, before the engine has been started.

NOTE: The engine must be stopped when checking the oil.

WARNING!

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

Adding oil (topping up)

Add oil of the same kind as already used. Capacity (including filter): Normally-aspirated 5-cylinder engine - 5.8 US qts (5.5 liters). Turbo 5-cylinder engine -

6.1 US qts (5.8 liters).

The oil filter should be replaced at every oil change.

R-models R-models are equipped with an oil level warning system. If the engine oil level becomes too low, the warning light in

the instrument panel will come on and a warning will be displayed in the text window.

If the yellow warning light in the instrument panel comes on and the text OIL LEVEL LOW/ FILL OIL is displayed, stop safely as soon as possible and add 1 qt (1 liter) of oil. Check the oil level with the dipstick before restarting the engine.

If the red warning light in the instrument panel comes on and the text OIL LEVEL LOW/STOP SAFELY-->STOP ENGINE-->SEE MANUAL is displayed, stop safely as soon as possible and add oil (not more than 1.6 qts (1.5 liters). Check the oil level with the dipstick before restarting the engine. If no oil level is visible on the dipstick, do not start the engine. Have the car towed to an authorized Volvo workshop.

pg. 127 Maintenance and service

Washer fluid reservoir

Washer fluid reservoir The washer fluid reservoir is located in the engine compartment and holds approx. 4.7 US qts. (4.5 liters).

During cold weather, the reservoir should be filled with windshield washer solvent containing antifreeze.

Coolant reservoir

Changing coolant Normally, the coolant does not need to be changed. If the system must be drained, consult your Volvo retailer.

NOTE: Do not top off with water only. This reduces the rust-protective and antifreeze qualities of the coolant and has a lower boiling point. It can also cause damage to the cooling system if it should freeze. Top off with Volvo Genuine Coolant/Antifreeze only (a 50/50 mix of water and antifreeze).

CAUTION:

The cooling system must always be kept filled to the correct level. If it is not kept filled, there can be high local temperatures in the engine which could result in damage. Different types of antifreeze/coolant may not be mixed. Check coolant regularly!

WARNING!

Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is warm. Wait until the car cools.

If it is necessary to top up the coolant when the engine is warm, unscrew the expansion tank cap slowly so that the overpressure dissipates.

pg. 128 Maintenance and service

Oils and fluids (Contd)

Clutch and brake fluid reservoir The clutch and brake fluid should always be above the MIN mark on the side of the reservoir. 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: Every second year or 30,000 miles (48,000 km). The fluid should be replaced once a year or every 15,000
miles (24,000 km) when driving under extremely hard conditions (mountain driving, etc.)

Always entrust brake fluid changing to an authorized Volvo retailer.

Power steering fluid reservoir The fluid level should always be between the MIN and MAX marks.

Fluid type: ATF

Replace: No fluid change required

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

Three way catalytic converter

Three-way catalytic converter cautions

Keep your engine properly tuned. Certain engine malfunctions, particularly involving the electrical, fuel or

distributor ignition systems, may cause unusually high three-way catalytic converter temperatures. Do not continue to operate your vehicle if you detect engine misfire, noticeable loss of power or other unusual operating conditions, such as engine overheating or backfiring. A properly tuned engine will help avoid malfunctions that could damage the three- way catalytic converter.

Do not park your car over combustible materials, such as grass or leaves, which can come into contact with the hot

exhaust system and cause such materials to ignite under certain wind and weather conditions.

Excessive starter cranking (in excess of one minute), or an intermittently firing or flooded engine can cause three-

way catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating.

Remember that tampering or unauthorized modifications to the engine, the Electronic Control Module, or the vehicle

may be illegal and can cause three-way catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating. This includes: - Altering fuel injection setting or components. - Altering emission system components or location or removing components. - Repeated use of leaded fuel.

NOTE: Unleaded fuel is required for cars with three-way catalytic converters.

Charge air cooler (Intercooler) Turbocharged engines employ a turbo-compressor to force air into the engine inlet manifold and a charge air cooler to cool the compressed inlet air. The resulting increase in air flow raises pressure in the intake manifold and increases engine power over that developed by the normally-aspirated engine. The charge air cooler (which resembles a radiator) is located between the turbo-compressor and inlet manifold.

Fuel system The engine is equipped with a multiport fuel injection system.
