Raise the car

When raising the car, it is important that the
jack is fitted in the intended points on the
car's underbody.

Applies to cars with 

Leveling Control

*

: If the

car is equipped with air suspension, this must
be disabled before the car is raised.

WARNING

If the car is raised using a workshop jack,

this must be placed beneath one of the

four jacking points. Take care to position

the workshop jack so that the car cannot

slip off. Make sure that the jack plate is fit-

ted with a rubber guard so that the car

remains stable and is not damaged. Always

use axle stands or similar.

NOTE

Volvo recommends only using the jack that
belongs to the car model in question. If a
jack is selected other than the one recom-
mended by Volvo, follow the instructions
supplied with the equipment.

The normal car jack is only designed for
occasional, short-term use, such as when
changing a wheel after a puncture. If the
car is to be jacked up more often, or for a
longer time than is required just to change
a wheel, use of a garage jack is recom-
mended. In this instance, follow the
instructions for use that come with the
equipment.

Engine oil

An approved engine oil must be used in order
that the recommended service intervals and
warranty can be applied.

Volvo recommends:

If the engine oil cannot be checked on a regu-
lar basis and the level falls too low, there is a
risk that this will cause serious damage to the
engine.

IMPORTANT

In order to fulfil the requirements for the
engine's service intervals all engines are
filled with a specially adapted synthetic
engine oil at the factory. The choice of oil
has been made very carefully with regard
to service life, starting characteristics, fuel
consumption and environmental impact.

An approved engine oil must be used in
order that the recommended service inter-
vals can be applied. Only use a prescribed
grade of oil for both filling and oil change,
otherwise there is a risk of the service life,
starting characteristics, fuel consumption
and environmental impact of the car being
affected.

If engine oil of the prescribed grade and
viscosity is not used, engine related com-
ponents may become damaged. Volvo Car
Corporation disclaims any liability for any
such damage.

Volvo recommends that oil changes are
carried out at an authorised Volvo work-
shop.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

}}

607

Volvo uses different systems to warn about
the oil level if it is too low/high, or in the event
of low oil pressure. Certain engine variants
have an oil pressure sensor, and then the
driver display's warning symbol for low oil
pressure 

 is used. Other variants have an

oil level sensor, when the driver is informed via
the driver display's warning symbol 

 and

display texts. Certain variants have both sys-
tems. Contact a Volvo dealer for more infor-
mation.

Change the engine oil and oil filter in accord-
ance with the intervals specified in the Service
and Warranty Booklet. Using oil of a higher
than specified grade is permitted. If the car is
driven in adverse conditions, Volvo recom-
mends using an oil of a higher grade than the
one specified.

Topping up coolant

The coolant cools the internal combustion
engine to the correct operating temperature.
The heat that is transferred from the engine
to the coolant can be used to heat the pas-
senger compartment.

When topping up the coolant, follow the
instructions on the packaging. Never top up
with water only. The risk of freezing increases
with both too little and too much coolant con-
centrate.

If there is coolant under the car, if there is
coolant smoke, or if more than 2 litres (approx.
2 quarts) have been filled, always call for
recovery to avoid the risk of engine damage
due to a defective cooling system when
attempting to start the car.

WARNING

The coolant may be very hot. Never open

the cap when the coolant is hot. If a top-up

is required, unscrew the expansion tank

cap slowly to allow any overpressure to

disappear.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

609

Coolant expansion tank.

Open the lid on the plastic cover.

Screw off the cap and top up with coolant
if necessary. The coolant level must not
exceed the yellow 

MAX

 mark inside the

expansion tank.

Reinstall the parts in reverse order.

IMPORTANT

•

Harmful if ingested. May cause organ
(kidney) damage.

•

Use ready-mixed coolant as recom-
mended by Volvo. If concentrated liq-
uid is used, make sure that the ratio is
50 % coolant to 50 % water of an
approved quality.

•

Do not mix different coolants.

•

Only new coolant should be used
when replacing major cooling system
components to ensure the system has
sufficient corrosion protection.

•

The engine must only be run with a
well-filled cooling system. Otherwise,
temperatures that are too high may
occur resulting in the risk of damage
(cracks) in the cylinder head.

•

A high content of chlorine, chlorides
and other salts may cause corrosion in
the cooling system.

Starter battery

The electrical system is single-pole and uses
the chassis and engine casing as a conduc-
tor.

The starter battery is used to start up the
electrical system and drive electrical equip-
ment in the car. The hybrid battery is used
when the internal combustion engine is
started.

The starter battery should be replaced by a
workshop

17

.

The starter battery is a 12 V AGM battery
(Absorbed Glass Mat), designed for regenera-
tive charging, and to support the functionality
of the car's different systems.

The service life and function of the starter bat-
tery is influenced by factors such as the num-
ber of starts, discharging, driving style, driving
conditions, climatic conditions etc.

•

Never disconnect the starter battery when
the engine is running.

•

Check that the cables to the starter bat-
tery are correctly connected and properly
tightened.

WARNING

•

The battery can generate oxyhydrogen
gas, which is highly explosive. A spark
can be formed if a jump lead is con-
nected incorrectly, and this can be
enough for the battery to explode.

•

Do not connect the jump leads to any
fuel system component or any moving
part. Be careful of hot engine parts.

•

The battery contains sulphuric acid,
which can cause serious burns.

•

If sulphuric acid comes into contact
with eyes, skin or clothing, flush with
large quantities of water. If acid
splashes into the eyes - seek medical
attention immediately.

•

Never smoke near the battery.

Charging points

When connecting an external starter battery or
battery charger, use the car's charging points
in the engine compartment.

The battery terminals on the car's starter bat-
tery in the luggage/cargo area must 

not

 be

used.

Positive charging point

Negative charging point

IMPORTANT

It is not possible to charge another car's
battery by supplying current through the
charging points. Using the charging points
to charge another car's battery may cause
a fuse to blow, which means that the
charging points will stop working.

17

An authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.

||

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

612

IMPORTANT

When charging the starter battery, only use
a modern battery charger with controlled
charging voltage. Fast charging function
must not be used since it may damage the
battery.

NOTE

If both the starter battery and the hybrid
battery are discharged then 

both

 batteries

must be charged. In such a case, charging
only the hybrid battery first is not possible.

In order for the hybrid battery to be
charged the starter battery must have a
certain state of charge.

IMPORTANT

If the following instruction is not observed
then the energy saving function for info-
tainment may be temporarily disengaged,
and/or the message in the driver display
about the starter battery's state of charge
may be temporarily inapplicable, following
the connection of an external starter bat-
tery or battery charger:

•

The negative battery terminal on the
car's starter battery must 

never

 be

used for connecting an external starter
battery or battery charger - only the

car's negative charging point

 may be

used as the grounding point.

NOTE

The life of the battery is shortened if it
becomes discharged repeatedly.

The life of the battery is affected by several
factors, including driving conditions and
climate. Battery starting capacity decrea-
ses gradually with time and therefore
needs to be recharged if the car is not used
for a longer time or when it is only driven
short distances. Extreme cold further limits
starting capacity.

To maintain the battery in good condition,
at least 15 minutes of driving/week is rec-
ommended or that the battery is con-
nected to a battery charger with automatic
trickle charging.

A battery that is kept fully charged has a
maximum service life.

Location

The starter battery is located in the cargo area.

WARNING

If the starter battery is disconnected, the

automatic opening and closing function

must be reset to work properly. A reset

must take place for pinch protection to

work.

IMPORTANT

On certain models, the battery is attached
with a retaining strap. Make sure the
retaining strap is properly tightened.
