MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

611

WARNING

If the starter battery is disconnected, the

function for automatic opening and closing

must be reset to function correctly. A reset

is required in order for the pinch protection

to work.

CAUTION

On certain models, the battery is secured
with a tensioning strap. Make sure that the
tensioning strap is always securely tight-
ened.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

612

Support battery

Vehicles with the Start/Stop function are
equipped with two batteries – a more power-
ful 12 V start battery and a support battery
that provides stronger current during the
function's start sequence.

The 12 V support battery is located in a box next to

the spring strut in the engine compartment.

If the vehicle is instead equipped with a 48 V support

battery, it is located under the cargo compartment.

The box over the 48 V support battery may only be

removed by an authorized workshop.

WARNING

High voltage may be dangerous if handled

incorrectly. Do not touch anything on bat-

teries that is not clearly described in this

•

Never use a 48 V support battery to
jump start the vehicle.

•

External electrical equipment may not
under any circumstance be connected
to the 48 V battery.

•

Only a workshop may replace or per-
form service on the 48 V battery – an
authorized Volvo workshop is recom-
mended.

NOTE

•

The higher the current consumption in
the vehicle, the more the alternator has
to work and the batteries have to be
charged = increased fuel consumption.

•

When the starter battery capacity has
dropped below the lowest permissible
level, the Start/Stop function is disen-
gaged.

When the Start/Stop function is temporarily
reduced due to high current consumption:

•

The engine will auto-start, even if the
driver does not lift their foot from the
brake pedal.

The support battery does not normally require
more service than the start battery. If you have
any questions or concerns, consult a work-
shop 

‒ 

an authorized Volvo workshop is rec-

ommended.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

613

CAUTION

If the following is not observed, the Start/
Stop function may temporarily stop work-
ing after connection of an external starter
battery or battery charger:

•

The negative battery terminal of the
vehicle's starter battery must 

never

 be

used to connect an external starter
battery or battery charger – only the

vehicle's negative charging point

should be used as a grounding point.

NOTE

If the starter battery has been discharged
to the extent that the vehicle does not have
normal electrical functions and the engine
must then be jump-started with an external
battery or a battery charger, the Start/Stop
function may remain activated. If the Start/
Stop function shortly thereafter auto-stops
the engine, there is a huge risk that auto-
start of the engine will fail due to insuffi-
cient battery capacity since the battery had
not had time to recharge.

If the vehicle has been jump-started or if
there has not been enough time for the
battery to be charged with a battery
charger, the Start/Stop function should be
temporarily deactivated until the battery
has been recharged by the vehicle. At an
ambient temperature of about +15°C
(about 60°F), the battery must be charged
by the vehicle for at least one hour. At
lower ambient temperatures, the charging
time can increase to 3-4 hours. It is advisa-
ble to charge the battery with an external
battery charger.

Battery recycling

Start batteries and support batteries must be
recycled in an environmentally sound manner
at the end of their service life.

Consult a workshop if you are uncertain of
how to dispose of this type of waste

an

authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.

Fuses and fuseboxes

All electrical functions and components are
protected by a number of fuses in order to
protect the vehicle's electrical system from
damage by short circuiting or overloading.

WARNING

Never use a foreign object or a fuse with a

higher amperage than that specified to

replace a fuse. This could cause significant

damage to the electrical system and possi-

bly lead to a fire.

If any electrical component or function is not
responding, the component may have blown a
fuse due to temporary overload. If the same
fuse blows repeatedly, there may be a prob-
lem with the component. Volvo recommends
contacting an authorized Volvo workshop to
have the component checked.

Replacing fuses

All electrical functions and components are
protected by a number of fuses in order to
protect the vehicle's electrical system from
damage by short circuiting or overloading.

1. Refer to the fuse diagram to locate the

fuse.

2. Pull out the fuse and examine it from the

side to determine if the curved metal wire
in the fuse is intact.

3. If the wire is broken, replace the fuse with

a new fuse of the same color and amper-
age.

WARNING

Never use a foreign object or a fuse with a

higher amperage than that specified to

replace a fuse. This could cause significant

damage to the electrical system and possi-

bly lead to a fire.

WARNING

Contact an authorized Volvo workshop for

assistance replacing fuses not listed in the

performed incorrectly, significant damage

can be caused to the electrical system.
