retailer.
NOTE
Do not top off with water only. This reduces the rust-protective and ant\
ifreeze qualities of the coolant
and has a lower boiling point. It can also cause damage to the cooling s\
ystem if it should freeze. Top off
with Volvo Genuine Coolant/Antifreeze only (a 50/50 mix of water and an\
tifreeze).
CAUTION
The cooling system must always be kept filled to the correct level, and \
the level must be between the
MIN and MAX marks. If it is not kept filled, there can be high local tem\
peratures in the engine which
could result in damage. Different types of antifreeze/coolant may not be\
mixed. Check coolant
regularly!
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is warm. Wait until the v\
ehicle cools. If it is necessary
to top off the coolant when the engine is warm, unscrew the expansion ta\
nk cap slowly so that the
overpressure dissipates.

Charge air cooler (Intercooler)
Turbocharged engines employ a turbo-compressor to force air into the eng\
ine inlet manifold and a charge air cooler
to cool the compressed inlet air. The resulting increase in air flow rai\
ses pressure in the intake manifold and increases
engine power over that developed by the normally-aspirated engine. The c\
harge air cooler (which resembles a
radiator) is located between the turbo-compressor and inlet manifold.
Fuel system
The engine is equipped with a multiport fuel injection system.
