MAINTENANCE
Maintenance services
Your Volvo has passed two major inspections before being delivered to you, according to Volvo specifications. After being driven 600-
1,200 miles (1,000-2,000 km), your car should be brought to the Volvo dealer for a service inspection. Engine, transmission and rear axle
oils will be changed at this time.
Following this inspection, the maintenance inspections outlined in this book should be performed every 5,000 miles (8,000 km).
The extended maintenance inspection intervals make it even more advisable to follow this program.
Inspection and service should also be performed any time a malfunction is observed or suspected.
It is recommended that receipts for vehicle emission services be retained in the event that questions arise concerning maintenance. See your
"Maintenance Records Manual".
Maintenance inspection at 5,000 mile (8,000 km) intervals
Volvo advises you to follow the inspection program at 5,000 mile (8,000 km) intervals which is outlined in the "Maintenance Records
Manual". This maintenance program contains inspections and services necessary for the proper function of your car over the next 5,000
miles (8,000 km).
The maintenance inspections contain several checks which require special instruments and tools and therefore must be performed by a
qualified technician.
To keep your Volvo in top condition, specify time tested and proven Genuine Volvo Parts and Accessories.
The Federal Clean Air Act (USA)
The Clean Air Act requires vehicle manufacturers to furnish written instructions to the ultimate purchaser to assure the proper function of
those components that control emissions.
The maintenance instructions listed in the "Servicing" section of this Manual represent the minimum maintenance required. These services
are not covered by the warranty. You will be required to pay for labor and material used. Refer to your Warranty booklet for further details.
In accordance with Federal Regulations, your Volvo is warranted to meet certain Emission Performance Standards. Refer to your Warranty
booklet for detailed information.
