Message
Engine oil level
The oil level is checked using the electronic
oil level gauge with the thumbwheel when the
engine is switched off, see Menu navigation -
combined instrument panel (p. 106).
WARNING
Oil service required
If the message
shown, visit a workshop - an authorised
Volvo workshop is recommended. The oil
level may be too high.
IMPORTANT
If notified of low oil level, only fill with the
volume specified, for example, 0.5 litres.
NOTE
The system cannot directly detect changes
when the oil is filled or drained. The car
must have been driven approx. 30 km and
have been stationary for 5 minutes with the
engine switched off and on level ground
before the oil level indication is correct.
WARNING
Do not spill oil onto the hot exhaust mani-
fold due to the risk of fire.
