Fuel requirements
Fuel filler door
Press the button on the light switch panel (see illustration on
page 55) when the vehicle is at a standstill
to unlock the fuel filler door. Please note that the fuel filler door wi\
ll remain unlocked until the vehicle
begins to move forward. An audible click will be heard when the fuel fil\
ler door relocks.
If you intend to leave your vehicle while it is being refueled, this fea\
ture enables you to lock the doors/
tailgate while leaving the fuel filler door unlocked.
You can also keep the vehicle locked if you remain inside it during refu\
eling. The central locking button
does not lock the fuel filler door. Be sure the fuel filler door is not \
obstructed and is completely closed
after refueling.
Open the fuel filler cap slowly during hot weather.
NOTE: During a transitional period, a small number of service stations may st\
ill have fuel nozzles that

are not compatible with the fuel filler neck on vehicles equipped with t\
he evaporative control system.
Refueling
The fuel tank holds approximately 18 US gal. (68 liters) with sufficie\
nt volume left over to
accommodate possible expansion of the fuel in hot weather. Be aware that\
the "usable" tank capacity
will be somewhat less than the specified maximum. When the fuel level is\
low, such factors as ambient
temperature, the fuel's "Reid vapor pressure" characteristics, and terra\
in can affect the fuel pump's
ability to supply the engine with an adequate supply of fuel. Therefore,\
it is advisable to refuel as soon
as possible when the needle nears the red zone, or when the fuel warning\
light comes on.
pg. 124 Starting and driving
Fuel requirements
CAUTION!
- Do not refuel with the engine running
1. Turn the ignition off or to position I. If the ignition is on, an
incorrect reading could occur in the fuel gauge.
- After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise unt\
il it clicks into place.
1
- Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Do not press the handle on the filler\
nozzle more than one extra
time. Too much fuel in the tank in hot weather conditions can cause the \
fuel to overflow. Overfilling
could also cause damage to the emission control systems.
- Avoid spilling gasoline during refueling. In addition to causing damag\
e to the environment,
gasolines containing alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which\
may not be covered under
the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
- Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcoho\
l). This practice can result
in vehicle performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in th\
e fuel system. Such damage
may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
1. If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is runn\
ing when the vehicle is refueled, the Check
Engine Light (malfunction indicator lamp) may indicate a fault. Howeve\
r, your vehicle's performance will not be
affected. Use only Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps.

WARNING!
Before starting, check that the seat, steering wheel and mirrors are adj\
usted properly. Make sure the
brake pedal can be depressed completely. Adjust the seat if necessary. S\
ee page
84 and 86.
- Apply the parking brake (hand brake) if not already set. The gear se\
lector (automatic transmission) is
locked in the (P)ark position (SHIFTLOCK). Manual transmission: the clutch must be fully depressed.
- Without touching the accelerator pedal, turn the ignition key
1 to the starting position. Allow the starter
to operate for up to 10 seconds. Release the key as soon as the engine s\
tarts. If the engine fails to start,
repeat this step.
NOTE:
l If the key blade section of the remote is not fully folded out when star\
ting the vehicle, the immobilizer
function may make it impossible to start the engine.
l After a cold start, idle speed may be noticeably higher than normal for \
a short period. This is done to
help bring components in the emission control system to their normal ope\
rating temperature as quickly
as possible, which enables them to control emissions and help reduce the\
vehicle's impact on the
environment.
l For cold starts at altitudes above 6000 ft (1800 meters), depress the \
accelerator pedal halfway and turn
the key to the starting position. Release the pedal slowly when the engi\
ne starts.
l To release the gear selector from the (P)ark position, the engine must be running (or the ignition key
must be in position II) and the brake pedal must be depressed.
l Select the desired gear. The gear engages after a very slight delay whic\
h is especially noticeable when
selecting R.
NOTE: Your vehicle is equipped with a KEYLOCK system (automatic transmission). When the engine
is switched off, the gear selector must be in the (P)ark position before the key can be removed from the
ignition switch.
When starting in cold weather, the transmission may shift up at slightly\
higher engine speeds than
normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating t\
emperature.
1. If two of the keys to your vehicle are close together, e.g. on the sa\
me key ring, when you try to start the
vehicle, this could cause interference in the immobilizer system and res\
ult in the vehicle not starting. If this
should occur, remove one of the keys from the key ring before trying to \
start the vehicle again.

WARNING!
An extra mat on the driver's floor can cause the accelerator pedal to ca\
tch. Check that the movement
of the accelerator pedal is not impeded. No more than one protective flo\
or covering may be used at
one time.
WARNING!
l Always place the gear selector in Park or in reverse on models with a ma\
nual transmission, and
apply the parking brake before leaving the vehicle. Never leave the vehi\
cle unattended with the
engine running.
l Always open garage doors fully before starting the engine inside a garag\
e to ensure adequate
ventilation. The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which is invisib\
le and odorless but very
poisonous

CAUTION!
Automatic transmission
The engine should be idling when you move the gear selector. Never accel\
erate until after you feel
the transmission engage! Accelerating immediately after selecting a gear\
will cause harsh engagement
and premature transmission wear.
Selecting P or N when idling at a standstill for prolonged periods of ti\
me will help prevent
overheating of the automatic transmission fluid.
Do not race a cold engine immediately after starting.
