MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

634

Windshield wipers in the service

position

The windshield wiper blades must be in the serv-
ice (vertical) position for certain operations, e.g.
replacing the blades.

Windshield wipers in the service position.

The windshield wipers must be in the service
position when replacing, washing or lifting the
blades (e.g. to scrape ice or snow from the wind-
shield).

Before placing the wipers in service position,
ensure that they have not frozen to the wind-
shield.

Activating/deactivating service position

The service position can be activated/deactivated
when the vehicle is stationary and the windshield
wipers are switched off. Service position is acti-
vated/deactivated via Function view in the center
display:

Tap the

Wiper Service

Position

button. The indicator

light in the button will illuminate
when service position is acti-
vated. The windshield wipers
will move to the vertical posi-
tion when service position is

activated. To deactivate the service position, tap

Wiper Service Position

once. The indicator light

in the button will go out when service position is
deactivated.

The wiper blades will also move out of service
position if:

•

The windshield wipers are turned on.

•

The windshield washers are turned on.

•

The rain sensor is activated.

•

The vehicle begins moving.

Using the rain sensor (p. 176)

If the wiper arms in service position are raised
from the windshield, they must be folded back
against the windscreen before activating wip-
ing, washing or rain sensor as well as before
departure. This is to prevent scratching the
paint on the hood.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

* Option/accessory.

Filling washer fluid

Washer fluid is used to help keep the headlights
and windshield clean. Washer fluid containing
anti-freeze should be used in very cold weather
(below-freezing temperatures).

Fill washer fluid into the reservoir with the blue
cover. The reservoir is used for both the wind-
shield washer and the headlight washer*

When there is approximately 1 liter (1 qt) of
washer fluid remaining, the message

Washer

fluid

Level low, refill

and the

symbol

will be displayed in the instrument panel.

Recommended grade: Washer fluid recom-
mended by Volvo, with frost protection during

cold weather and temperatures below the freez-
ing point.

Use Volvo's original washer fluid or an equiva-
lent fluid with the recommended pH value
between 6 and 8, diluted as recommended,
e.g. in a 1:1 solution with pH-neutral water.

Using the rain sensor (p. 176)

Use washer fluid with anti-freeze when tem-
peratures are below the freezing point to help
keep the pump, reservoir and hoses from
freezing.

Volume:

The washer fluid reservoir has a volume of 5.5 lit-
ers (5.8 qts).

The maximum trailer weights listed are
only applicable for altitudes up to 3280 ft
(1,000 m) above sea level. With increas-
ing altitude the engine power and there-
fore the car's climbing ability are impaired
because of the reduced air density, so
the maximum trailer weight has to be
reduced accordingly. The weight of the
car and trailer must be reduced by 10%
for every further 3280 ft (1,000 m) (or
part thereof).

Engine oil specifications

Fully synthetic engine oil of at least
ACEA A5/B5 must be used. Lower oil grades
may not offer the same fuel economy, engine
performance or engine protection.

Volvo recommends:

General

See the Service and warranty booklet for infor-
mation about oil change intervals.

This vehicle is delivered from the factory with
synthetic oil.

Do not use oil additives.

Oil viscosity

The wrong oil viscosity can shorten engine serv-
ice life during normal use. SAE 5W-30 provides
good fuel economy and engine protection. See
the viscosity chart.

Brake fluid specifications

The medium in the hydraulic brake system is
called brake fluid and is used to transfer braking
force from e.g. pressure on the brake pedal via a
master brake cylinder to one or more slave cylin-
ders, which in turn act on a mechanical brake.

Recommended grade: Volvo Original or similar
fluid that meets a combination of Dot 4, 5.1 and
ISO 4925 class 6.

Engine compartment overview (p. 596)

Changing or filling brake fluid should be
