Volvo V60 RECHARGE 2021 Owner's Manual page 605

Hybrid battery
The vehicle's electric motor is powered by a
rechargeable, maintenance-free, lithium-ion
hybrid battery.
NOTE
The vehicle cannot be started if the hybrid
battery is discharged.
If both the starter battery and the hybrid bat-
tery are discharged, both batteries must be
charged. In this situation, it is not possible to
first charge only the hybrid battery. The starter
battery must have a certain charge level in
order for the hybrid battery to be charged.
WARNING
Hybrid battery replacement may only be
performed by a workshop – an authorized
Volvo workshop is recommended.
Hybrid battery service life and
capacity
The capacity of the hybrid battery decreases
with age and use, which could result in
increased use of the combustion engine and
thereby higher fuel consumption and reduced
electric motor range.
Coolant
The hybrid battery's cooling system has its
own expansion tank.
CAUTION
Filling the hybrid battery coolant should
only be performed by a workshop – an
authorized Volvo workshop is recom-
mended.
