MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
||
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 dis-
claims any liability for any such damage.
Volvo recommends that oil changes are
carried out at an authorised Volvo work-
shop.
Symbols for low oil level
Volvo uses different systems to warn about
the oil level if it is too low/high, or in the event
of low oil pressure. The driver display's warn-
ing symbol for low oil pressure is used for the
oil pressure sensor . For oil level sensor,
626
the driver is informed via the driver display's
warning symbol and display texts. Cer-
tain variants have both systems. Contact a
Volvo dealer for more information.
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.
