Volvo maintenance
Introduction Volvo advises you to follow the maintenance program outlined in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. This mainte- nance program contains inspections and serv- ices necessary for the proper function of your vehicle. The maintenance services contain several checks that require special tools and training, 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 Your Volvo passed several major inspections before it was delivered to you, in accordance with Volvo specifications. The maintenance procedures outlined in the Warranty and Serv- ice Records Information booklet, many of which will positively affect your vehicle's emis- sions, should be performed as indicated. It is
08

recommended that receipts for vehicle emis- sion maintenance be retained in case ques- tions arise concerning maintenance. Inspec- tion and maintenance should also be per- formed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected.
prehensive periodic maintenance schedule up to 150,000 miles (240,000 km) of vehicle main- tenance. The schedule includes components that affect vehicle emissions. This page describes some of the emission-related com- ponents.
Applicable warranties – U.S/Canada In accordance with applicable U.S. and Cana- dian regulations, the following list of warranties is provided. • New Vehicle Limited Warranty • Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty • Corrosion Protection Limited Warranty • Seat Belt and Supplemental Restraint Sys-
tems Limited Warranty
• Emission Design and Defect Warranty • Emission Performance Warranty These are the federal warranties; other warran- ties are provided as required by state/provin- cial law. Refer to your separate Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for detailed information concerning each of the warranties.

08 Maintenance and specifications
Owner maintenance Periodic maintenance requirements and inter- vals are described in your vehicle's Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenance services.
Each time the car is refueled: • Check the engine oil level. • Clean the windshield, windshield wipers,
headlights, and tail lights.
Monthly: • Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect
the tires for wear.
• Check that engine coolant and other fluid levels are between the indicated "min" and "max" markings.
• Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass
cleaner and soft paper towels.
• Wipe driver information displays with a soft
cloth.
• Visually inspect battery terminals for cor- rosion. Corrosion may indicate a loose ter- minal connector, or a battery near the end of its useful service life. Consult your Volvo retailer for additional information.
As needed: Wash the car, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can be caused by a buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can be caused by salt residues. Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshield, and from other pla- ces where they may collect.
NOTE
Complete service information for qualified technicians is available online for purchase or subscription at www.volvotechinfo.com.
Hoisting the vehicle
If a garage jack is used to lift the vehicle, the two jack attachments points should be used.
Maintaining your car
They are specially reinforced to bear the weight of the vehicle. 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 posi- tioned so that the vehicle cannot slide off it. Always use axle stands or similar structures. If a two-post hoist is used to lift the vehicle, 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).
Emission inspection readiness
What is an Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD II)? OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. It stores diagnos- tic information about your vehicle's emission controls. It can light the Check Engine light (MIL) if it detects an emission control "fault." A "fault" is a component or system that is not performing within an expected range. A fault may be permanent or temporary. OBD II will store a message about any fault.
How do states use OBD II for emission inspections? Many states connect a computer directly to a vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can then read "faults." In some states, this type of
08
``

way driving is typically needed to allow OBD II to reach readiness. Your Volvo retailer can provide you with more infor- mation on planning a trip.
• Maintain your vehicle in accordance with
your vehicle's maintenance schedule.
Maintaining your car
inspection has replaced the tailpipe emission test.
How can my vehicle fail OBD II emission inspection? Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspec- tion for any of the following reasons. • If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, your
vehicle may fail inspection.
• If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit,
but went out without any action on your part, OBD II will still have a recorded fault. Your vehicle may pass or fail, depending on the inspection practices in your area.
• If you had recent service that required dis- connecting the battery, OBD II diagnostic information may be incomplete and "not ready" for inspection. A vehicle that is not ready may fail inspection.
How can I prepare for my next OBD II emission inspection? • If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit – or was lit but went out without service, have your vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary, serviced by a qualified Volvo technician. • If you recently had service for a lit Check
Engine light, or if you had service that required disconnecting the battery, a period of driving is necessary to bring the OBD II system to "ready" for inspection. A half-hour trip of mixed stop-and-go/high-

Engine oil
Checking the engine oil The oil level should be checked at regular inter- vals, particularly during the period up to the first scheduled maintenance service. • See page 325 for oil specifications. • Refer to the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for information on the oil change intervals.
Volvo recommends Castrol oil products.
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.
• Volvo does not recommend the use of
oil additives.
• 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.

Checking and adding oil
Location of the filler cap and dipstick
NOTE
Before checking the oil: • The car should be parked on a level sur-
face.
• If the engine is warm, wait for at least
10 – 15 minutes after the engine has been switched off.
The oil level must be between the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick 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. The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks.
3. Add oil if necessary. If the level is close to
the MIN mark, add approximately 0.5 US quarts (0.5 liters) of oil.
4. Recheck the level and add more oil if nec- essary until the level is near the MAX mark.

Fluids
Coolant
CAUTION
WARNING
• 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
vehicle's cooling system.
• 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
Location of the brake fluid reservoir
Checking the level The fluid reservoir is concealed under the round cover at the rear of the engine compart- ment. The round cover must be removed first before the reservoir cap can be accessed.
Location of the 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. See page 326 for information on cooling sys- tem capacities.

Fluids
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.
CAUTION
Keep the area around the power steering fluid reservoir clean when checking.
Check the level frequently. The fluid does not require changing. The fluid level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. For capaci- ties and recommended fluid grade, see page 326.
The brake fluid should always be between the
MIN and MAX marks on the inside of the res-
ervoir. 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 a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician.
Always entrust brake fluid changing to a
trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
WARNING
• If the fluid level is below the MIN mark
in the reservoir or if a brake-related message is shown in the information display: DO NOT DRIVE. Have the car towed to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician and have the brake system inspected.
• Dot 4+ should never be mixed with any
other type of brake fluid.

NOTE
A used battery should be disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner. Con- sult your Volvo retailer or take the battery to a recycling station.
Handling • Check that the battery cables are correctly
connected and tightened.
• Never disconnect the battery when the
engine is running (for example, when replacing the battery).
• If the battery is fully discharged a number of times, this may shorten its service life. • The service life of a battery is affected by factors such as driving conditions and cli- mate. Extreme cold may also further decrease the battery’s starting capacity. • Because the battery’s starting capacity
decreases with time, it may be necessary to recharge it if the vehicle is not driven for an extended period of time or if the vehicle is usually only driven short distances.
Never use a quick charger to charge the bat- tery.
08

WARNING
• Never expose the battery to open flame
or electric spark.
• Do not smoke near the battery. • Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do not allow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin, fabrics or painted surfaces. If con- tact occurs, flush the affected area immediately with water. Obtain medical help immediately if eyes are affected.
NOTE
The life of the battery is shortened if it becomes discharged repeatedly.
Maintenance • 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.
• To help keep the battery in good condition,
the vehicle should be driven for at least 15
minutes a week or connected to a charger
with an automatic charging function.
• If the battery is fully discharged a number of times, this may shorten its service life. Keeping the battery fully charged helps prolong its service life.
• The service life of a battery is affected by factors such as driving conditions and cli- mate. Extreme cold may also further decrease the battery’s starting capacity. • Because the battery’s starting capacity
decreases with time, it may be necessary to recharge it if the vehicle is not driven for an extended period of time or if the vehicle is usually only driven short distances.

Replacing fuses There are relay/fuse boxes located in the engine compartment, the passenger compart- ment, and the trunk. 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, a special fuse removal tool is located on the inside of the engine com- partment fuse box cover.
2. From the side, examine the curved metal
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.

08 Maintenance and specifications
Washing the car The following points should be kept in mind when washing and cleaning the car: • The car should be washed at regular inter- vals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spots adhere to the paint and may cause dam- age. To help prevent corrosion, it is partic- ularly important to wash the car frequently in the wintertime.
• Avoid washing your car in direct sunlight. Doing so may cause detergents and wax to dry out and become abrasive. To avoid scratching, use lukewarm water to soften the dirt before you wash with a soft sponge, and plenty of sudsy water.
• 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.
• 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 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 of the wind- shield and wiper blades improves visibility
considerably and also helps prolong the service life of the wiper blades.
• Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel
housings, fenders, etc).
• In areas of high industrial fallout, more fre-
quent washing is recommended.
NOTE
When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills.
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.
• Dirt, snow, etc., on the headlights can reduce lighting capacity considerably. Clean the headlights regularly, for example when refueling. 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.
Vehicle care
Exterior components Volvo recommends the use of special cleaning products, available at your Volvo retailer, for cleaning colored plastic, rubber, or ornamental components such as chromed strips on the exterior of your vehicle. The instructions for using these products should be followed care- fully. Solvents or stain removers should not be used.
CAUTION
• Avoid waxing or polishing plastic or rub-
ber components
• Polishing chromed strips can wear
away or damage the surface
• Polishes containing abrasive sub-
stances should not be used
Automatic car wash • We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the first few 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 thor- ough as when you yourself go over the car with sponge and water. Keeping the under- body clean is most important, especially in the winter. Some automatic washers do

Vehicle care
not have facilities for washing the under- body.
CAUTION
• Before driving into an automatic car
wash, turn off the optional rain sensor to avoid damaging the windshield wipers. • Make sure that side view mirrors, auxil- iary lamps, etc, are secure, and that any antenna(s) are retracted or removed. Otherwise there is risk of the machine dislodging them.
• Chromed wheels: Clean chrome-
plated wheels using the same deter- gents used for the body of the vehicle. Aggressive wheel-cleaning agents can permanently stain chrome-plated wheels.
WARNING
• When the vehicle is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brakes, including the parking brake, 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.
Exterior lighting Condensation may form temporarily on the inside of the lenses of exterior lights such as headlights, fog lights, or taillights. This is nor- mal and the lights are designed to withstand moisture. Normally, condensation will dissi- pate after the lights have been on for a short time.
Polishing and waxing • Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery, however, wax- ing may be beneficial.
• Before applying polish or wax the vehicle 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 pol-
ishing a dull surface.
• A wide range of polymer-based 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 vehicle in direct sunlight (the surface of the vehicle should not be warmer than 113 °F (45 °C).
CAUTION
Volvo does not recommend the use of long- life or durable paint protection coatings, some of which may claim to prevent pitting, fading, oxidation, etc. These coatings have not been tested by Volvo for compatibility with your vehicle's clear coat. Some of them may cause the clear coat to soften, crack, or cloud. Damage caused by application of paint protection coatings may not be cov- ered under your vehicle's paint warranty.
Cleaning the interior Only use cleaning agents and car care prod- ucts recommended by Volvo. Clean regularly and follow the instructions included with the car care product.
Upholstery care Fabric Clean 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. Consult your Volvo retailer. AlcanteraTM suede-like material Suede-like upholstery can be cleaned with a soft cloth and mild soap solution.

3. Dampen the stain thoroughly with the
sponge. Let the sponge absorb the stain, do not rub.
4. Dry the stain with soft paper towels or a towel, and allow the leather to dry com- pletely.
Protecting leather upholstery 1. Put a small amount of protectant cream on a cloth and apply a thin coating of cream to the upholstery with light circular move- ments.
2. Allow the leather to dry for 20 minutes. This will help the leather resist staining and protect against sunlight's harmful UV rays.
Leather care Volvo's leather upholstery is manufactured with a protectant to repel soiling. Over time, sunlight, grease and dirt can break down the protection. Staining, cracking, scuffing, and fading can result. Volvo offers an easy-to-use, non-greasy leather care kit formulated to clean and beau- tify your vehicle's leather, and to renew the protective qualities of its finish. The cleaner removes dirt and oil buildup. The light cream protectant restores a barrier against soil and sunlight. Volvo also offers a special leather softener that should be applied after the cleaner and pro- tectant. It leaves leather soft and smooth, and reduces friction between leather and other fin- ishes in the vehicle. Volvo recommends cleaning, protecting and conditioning your vehicle's leather two to four times a year. Ask your Volvo retailer about Leather Care Kit 951 0251 and Leather Soft- ener 943 7429. Cleaning leather upholstery 1. Pour leather cleaner on a damp sponge and squeeze it until the cleaner foams.
2. Apply the foam to the stain by moving the
sponge with circular movements.
Vehicle care
CAUTION
• Under no circumstances should gaso- line, naphtha or similar cleaning agents be used on the plastic or the leather since these can cause damage.
• Take extra care when removing stains such as ink or lipstick since the coloring can spread.
• Use solvents sparingly. Too much sol-
vent can damage the seat padding.
• Start from the outside of the stain and
work toward the center.
• Sharp objects (e.g. pencils or pens in a pocket) or Velcro fasteners on clothing may damage the textile upholstery.
• Clothing that is not colorfast, such as
new jeans or suede garments, may stain the upholstery.
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 deter- gent. For best protection in winter, Volvo rec-
