self supporting run flat tires.
Tires of this type have specially reinforced sidewalls that make it poss\
ible to continue driving in the
event of a drop in inflation pressure. Tires of this type are mounted on\
special rims.
NOTE: Self supporting run flat tires are only available in conjunction with T\
PMS.
If a self supporting run flat tire should lose inflation pressure, the y\
ellow TPMS warning symbol (
) in
the instrument panel lights up to alert the driver, and a message will b\
e shown in the text window in the
instrument panel.
If this occurs, reduce vehicle speed to a maximum of 50 mph (80 km/h).\
The vehicle can be driven
approximately 50 miles (80 km), or somewhat farther if the vehicle is \
not heavily loaded. The tire should
be replaced as soon as possible.
Hard braking and sudden steering maneuvers should be avoided.
In certain cases, it may be difficult to see which self supporting run f\
lat tire is defective.
To determine which tire is damaged, check the inflation pressure of all \
four tires.
WARNING!
l Only specially trained persons should mount self supporting run flat tir\
es.
l If self supporting run flat tires are mounted, the vehicle must be equip\
ped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System.
l After a low pressure warning has been displayed, do not exceed 50 mph (\
80 km/ h).
l Avoid severe cornering and hard braking, and minimize the distance trave\
led before replacing the
self supporting run flat tire.
l Self supporting run flat tires cannot be repaired. They must be replaced\
if damaged or punctured.

Maintaining your car
Owner maintenance
Periodic maintenance requirements and intervals are described in your ve\
hicle's Warranty and Service
Records Information booklet.
The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled m\
aintenance services.
Each time the vehicle is refueled:
l Check the engine oil level
l Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and tail lights
Monthly:
l Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect the tires for wear.
l Check that engine coolant and other fluid levels are between the indicat\
ed "min" and "max" markings.
l Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass cleaner and soft paper towels\
.
l Wipe driver information displays with a soft cloth.
l Visually inspect battery terminals for corrosion. Corrosion may indicate\
a loose terminal connector, or
a battery near the end of its useful service life. Consult your Volvo re\
tailer for additional information.
As needed:
l Wash the vehicle, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can b\
e caused by a buildup of dirt,
and corrosion that can be caused by salt residues.
l Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshie\
ld, and from other places
where they may collect.
NOTE: Complete service information for qualified technicians is available onl\

Emission inspection readiness
What is an Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD II)?
OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. \
It stores diagnostic
information about your vehicle's emission controls. It can light the Che\
ck Engine light (MIL) if it detects
an emission control "fault." A "fault" is a component or system that is \
not performing within an expected
range. A fault may be permanent or temporary. OBD II will store a messag\
e about any fault.

- Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine dama\
ge if the oil level becomes too

- Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This could cause an increase in oil\
consumption.
- Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine dama\
ge if the oil level becomes too
low.
- Always add oil of the same type and viscosity as already used.
WARNING!
Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into contact with hot exhaust pip\
e
surfaces.
R-models
R-models are equipped with an oil level warning system. If the engine oi\
l level becomes too low, the
warning light in the instrument panel will come on and a warning will be\
displayed in the text window.
l If the yellow warning light in the instrument panel comes on and the tex\
t OIL LEVEL LOW/FILL
OIL is displayed, stop safely as soon as possible and add 1 qt (1 liter\
) of oil. Check the oil level with the
dipstick before restarting the engine.
l If the red warning light in the instrument panel comes on and the text O\
IL 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 dip\
