Checking and filling with engine oil
The oil level is detected with the electronic oil
level sensor.
See oil level in the centre display
Example of graphic for oil level in the centre display
The oil level is visualised using the electronic
oil level gauge in the centre display when the
car has been started. The oil level should be
checked regularly.
1. Open the Car Status app from the app
view in the centre display.
2. Press Status to show the oil level.
NOTE
The system cannot directly detect changes
when the oil is filled or drained. The car
must have been driven approx. 30 km
(approx. 20 miles) and have been station-
ary for 5 minutes with the engine switched
off and on level ground before the oil level
indication is correct.
NOTE
If the right conditions for measuring the oil
level (time after engine shutdown, the car's
inclination, outside temperature, etc.) are
not met, then the message No value
available will be shown in the centre dis-
play. This does not mean that there is
something wrong in the car's systems.
IMPORTANT
If this symbol is shown then the
oil pressure may be too low. Stop
the car as quickly as possible and
have the car recovered to a work-
shop – an authorised Volvo workshop is
recommended.
