Fuel requirements
Octane rating
Volvo engines are designed for optimum performance on unleaded premium g\
asoline with an AKI octane rating of 91 or
above. AKI (ANTI KNOCK INDEX) is an average of the Research Octane Num\
ber, RON, and the Motor Octane Number,
MON. ((RON + MON)/2). The minimum octane requirement is AKI 87 (RON\
91).
Deposit control gasoline (detergent additives)
Volvo recommends the use of detergent gasoline to control engine deposit\
s. Detergent gasoline is effective in keeping
injectors and intake valves clean. Consistent use of deposit control gas\
olines will help ensure good drivability and fuel
economy. If you are not sure whether the gasoline contains deposit contr\
ol additives, check with the service station
operator.
NOTE: Volvo does not recommend the use of external fuel injector cleaning sys\
tems.
Unleaded fuel
Each Volvo has a three-way catalytic converter and must use only unleade\
d gasoline. U.S. and Canadian regulations
require that pumps delivering unleaded gasoline be labelled "UNLEADED". \
Only these pumps have nozzles which fit
your vehicle's filler inlet. It is unlawful to dispense leaded fuel into\
a vehicle labelled "unleaded gasoline only". Leaded
gasoline damages the three-way catalytic converter and the heated oxygen\
sensor system. Repeated use of leaded gasoline
will lessen the effectiveness of the emission control system and could r\
esult in loss of emission warranty coverage. State
and local vehicle inspection programs will make detection of misfueling \
easier, possibly resulting in emission test failure
for misfueled vehicles.
NOTE: Some U.S. and Canadian gasolines contain an octane enhancing additive c\
alled methyl-cyclopentadienyl
manganese tricarbonyl (MMT). If such fuels are used, your Emission Con\
trol System performance may be affected, and
the Check Engine Light (malfunction indicator lamp) located on your in\
strument panel may light. If this occurs, please
return your vehicle to an authorized Volvo retailer for maintenance.
Gasoline containing alcohol and ethers "Oxygenated fuels"
Some fuel suppliers sell gasoline containing "oxygenates" which are usua\
lly alcohols or ethers. In some areas, state or
local laws require that the service pump be marked indicating use of alc\
ohols or ethers. However, there are areas in which
the pumps are unmarked. If you are not sure whether there is alcohol or \
ethers in the gasoline you buy, check with the
service station operator. To meet seasonal air quality standards, some a\
reas require the use of "oxygenated" fuel.
Volvo allows the use of the following "oxygenated" fuels; however, the o\
ctane ratings listed on this page must still be met.
Alcohol - Ethanol: Fuels containing up to 10% ethanol by volume may be u\
sed. Ethanol may also be referred to as Ethyl
alcohol, or "Gasohol".
Ethers - MTBE: Fuels containing up to 15% MTBE may be used.

Fuel filler door
Press the button on the light switch panel (see illustration on
page 56) when the vehicle is at a standstill to unlock the fuel
filler door. Please note that the fuel filler door will remain unlocked \
until the vehicle begins to move forward. An audible
click will be heard when the fuel filler 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 the evaporative cont\
rol system.
Refueling
The fuel tank holds approximately 21.1 US gals. (80 liters) with suffi\
cient volume left over to accommodate possible
expansion of the fuel in hot weather. Be aware that the "usable" tank ca\
pacity 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 terrain can affect the fuel pump's ability to suppl\
y 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.
WARNING!
Never carry a cell phone that is switched on while refueling your vehicle. If the phone rings, this may cause a spar\
k that
could ignite gasoline fumes, resulting in fire and injury.
