Volvo V60 RECHARGE 2021 Owner's Manual page 599

CAUTION
To satisfy the requirements for the engine's
service intervals, all engines are factory-
filled with a specially adapted synthetic
engine oil. Great care has been put into the
choice of oil, with consideration given to
service life, startability, fuel consumption
and environmental impact.
For the recommended service intervals to
apply, an approved engine oil must be
used. Only use the prescribed oil grade to
top off or change the oil. Otherwise, there
is a risk of the vehicle's service life, starta-
bility, fuel consumption and environmental
impact being affected.
Failure to use engine oil of the prescribed
grade and viscosity could cause damage to
engine-related components. Volvo dis-
claims warranty liability for such type of
damage.
Volvo recommends entrusting oil changes
to an authorized Volvo workshop.
Symbols for low oil level
Volvo uses different systems to warn if the oil
level is too low/high or the oil pressure is low.
For oil pressure sensors, a warning symbol is
displayed in the instrument panel when oil
pressure is low . For oil level sensors, the
warning symbol in the instrument panel
and display messages are used to alert the
driver. Some engine variants have both sys-
tems. Contact a Volvo retailer for more infor-
mation.
Change the engine oil and oil filter according
to the schedule specified in the Warranty and
Maintenance Records Information booklet.
Oils of a higher grade than that specified may
be used. If the vehicle is driven in adverse con-
ditions, Volvo recommends using an oil with a
higher grade than that specified.
