charcoal canister to the engine's air intake system and into the combust\
ion process.
NOTE:
l Overfilling the fuel tank can cause damage to the evaporative control sy\
stem.
l If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running\
when the car is refueled, the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp may indicate a fault.
l During a transitional period, a small number of service stations may sti\
ll have fuel nozzles that are not
compatible with the fuel filler neck on cars equipped with the evaporati\
ve emission control system
mandated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the California \
Air Resources Board. If you
experience difficulties in refueling your vehicle, please ask the gas st\
ation attendant for assistance.
CAUTION:
Fuel must not be siphoned from the fuel tank. This will damage the evapo\
rative control system.


pg. 133 Drive belt, Coolant
Belt check
Check the belt regularly to make sure it is in good condition and is cle\
an. A worn or dirty belt can cause
poor cooling and low alternator output as well as impair the operation o\
f the power steering and the air
conditioning unit.
NOTE: The drive belt is equipped with a self-tensioning mechanism and requires\
no adjustment
between changes.
WARNING!
The engine must not be running when this check is
performed.
Check coolant level
The cooling system must be filled with coolant and not leak to operate a\
t maximum efficiency. Check
the coolant level regularly. The level should be between the "MAX" and "\
MIN" marks on the expansion
tank. The check should be made with particular thoroughness when the eng\
ine is new or when the
cooling system has been drained.
Do not remove the filler cap other than for topping up with coolant. Fre\
quent removal may prevent

If the red warning light in the instrument panel comes on and the text OIL LEVEL LOW/STOP
SAFELY-->STOP ENGINE-->SEE MANUAL is displayed, stop safely as soon as possible and add
oil (not more than 1.6 qts (1.5 liters). Check the oil level with the\
dipstick before restarting the engine. If
no oil level is visible on the dipstick, do not start the engine. Have t\
he car towed to an authorized Volvo
workshop.

pg. 139 Power steering/Brake fluid reservoirs

required to turn the steering wheel.
Brake fluid
The brake fluid should always be above the MIN mark on the side of the r\
eservoir. Check, without
removing the cap, that there is sufficient fluid in the reservoir.
Fluid type: DOT 4+ boiling point >536°F(280°C), P/N 9437433
Replace: Every second year or 30,000 miles (48,000 km). The fluid shou\
