Coolant
Location of the coolant reservoir
Normally, the coolant does not need to be changed. If the system must be drained, con-sult a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician. See page 367 for information on cooling sys- tem capacities.
CAUTION
• If necessary, top up the cooling sys- tem with Volvo Genuine Coolant/Anti-freeze only (a 50/50 mix of water andantifreeze).
• Different types of antifreeze/coolantmay not be mixed.
• If the cooling system is drained, itshould be flushed with clean water orpremixed anti-freeze before it is refilledwith the correct mixture of water/anti-freeze.
• The cooling system must always bekept filled to the correct level, and thelevel must be between the
MIN and
MAX marks. If it is not kept filled, there
can be high local temperatures in theengine which could result in damage.Check coolant regularly!
• Do not top up with water only. Thisreduces the rust-protective and anti-freeze qualities of the coolant and hasa lower boiling point. It can also causedamage to the cooling system if itshould freeze.
• Do not use chlorinated tap water in thevehicle's cooling system.
WARNING
• Never remove the expansion tank cap while the engine is warm. Wait until theengine cools.
• If it is necessary to top off the coolantwhen the engine is warm, unscrew theexpansion tank cap slowly so that theoverpressure dissipates.
Brake fluid
Location of the brake fluid reservoir
Checking the levelThe fluid reservoir is concealed under the round cover at the rear of the engine com-partment. The round cover must be removedfirst before the reservoir cap can beaccessed.

Replacing bulbs 09
330* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Introduction
All bulb specifications are listed on page 335. The following bulbs should only be replacedby a trained and qualified Volvo service tech-nician:
• Active Bending Lights
• Front parking lights
• Front side marker lights
• Cornering lights
• Turn signals in the door mirrors
• Approach lighting in the door mirrors
• Interior lighting
• Glove compartment lighting
• Rear parking lights
• LED bulbsNOTE
• For information regarding any bulbs not mentioned in this section, pleasecontact your Volvo retailer or a trainedand authorized Volvo service techni-cian.
• Always switch off the ignition beforestarting to replace a bulb.
• If an error message remains in the dis-play after a faulty bulb has beenreplaced, contact an authorized Volvoworkshop.
• Condensation may form temporarily onthe inside of the lenses of exteriorlights such as headlights, fog lights, ortaillights. This is normal and the lightsare designed to withstand moisture.Normally, condensation will dissipateafter the lights have been on for ashort time.
• The optional Active Bending Lightbulbs contain trace amounts of mer-cury. These bulbs should always bedisposed of by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.
CAUTION
Never touch the glass of bulbs with your fingers. Grease and oils from your fingersvaporize in the heat and will leave adeposit on the reflector, which will damageit.
WARNING
•The engine should not be running when changing bulbs.
• If the engine has been running justprior to replacing bulbs in the head-light housing, please keep in mind thatcomponents in the engine compart-ment will be hot.
WARNING
•Active Bending Lights* – due to the high voltage used by these headlights,these bulbs should only be replacedby a trained and qualified Volvo serv-ice technician.
• Turn off the lights and remove theremote key from the ignition beforechanging any bulbs.

washers do not have facilities for washing the underbody.
NOTE
Condensation may form temporarily on the inside of the lenses of exterior lights suchas headlights, fog lights, or taillights. Thisis normal and the lights are designed towithstand moisture. Normally, condensa-tion will dissipate after the lights have beenon for a short time.
CAUTION
•
Before driving into an automatic car wash, turn off the optional rain sensorto avoid damaging the windshield wip-ers.
• Make sure that side view mirrors, aux-iliary lamps, etc, are secure, and thatany antenna(s) are retracted orremoved. Otherwise there is risk of themachine dislodging them.
• Chromed wheels:
Clean chrome-
plated wheels using the same deter-gents used for the body of the vehicle.Aggressive wheel-cleaning agents canpermanently stain chrome-platedwheels.
WARNING
• When the vehicle is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brakes,including the parking brake, severaltimes in order to remove any moisturefrom the brake linings.
• Engine cleaning agents should not beused when the engine is warm. Thisconstitutes a fire risk.
Polishing and waxing
•
Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery, however, wax-ing may be beneficial.
• Before applying polish or wax the vehiclemust be washed and dried. Tar spots canbe removed with kerosene or tar remover.Difficult spots may require a fine rubbingcompound.
• After polishing use liquid or paste wax.
• Several commercially available productscontain both polish and wax.
• Waxing alone does not substitute for pol-ishing a dull surface.
• A wide range of polymer-based waxescan be purchased today. These waxesare easy to use and produce a long-last-ing, high-gloss finish that protects the bodywork against oxidation, road dirt andfading.
• Do not polish or wax your vehicle in directsunlight (the surface of the vehicle shouldnot be warmer than 113 °F (45 °C).
CAUTION
Volvo does not recommend the use of long-life or durable paint protection coat-ings, some of which may claim to preventpitting, fading, oxidation, etc. These coat-ings have not been tested by Volvo forcompatibility with your vehicle's clear coat.Some of them may cause the clear coat tosoften, crack, or cloud. Damage caused byapplication of paint protection coatingsmay not be covered under your vehicle'spaint warranty.
Cleaning the interior
Only use cleaning agents and car care prod- ucts recommended by Volvo. Clean regularlyand follow the instructions included with thecar care product.
Upholstery care
FabricClean with soapy water or a detergent. For more difficult spots caused by oil, ice cream,shoe polish, grease, etc., use a clothing/
