Engine oil - checking and filling
The oil level is checked on certain engine vari- ants with the electronic oil level sensor, onother engine variants with the oil dipstick.

Dipstick and filler pipe. Checking the oil level in a new car is espe- cially important before the first scheduled oilchange. Volvo recommends checking the oil level every 2 500 km. The most accurate measure-ments are made on a cold engine before star-ting. The measurement will be inaccurate iftaken immediately after the engine isswitched off. The dipstick will indicate thatthe level is too low because the oil has nothad time to flow down into the oil sump.
G021737
The oil level must be between the
MIN and MAX
marks.
Measurement and filling if required1. Ensure that the car is level. After switch-
ing off the engine it is important to wait 5 minutes to allow the oil time to run backto the sump.
2. Pull up and wipe the dipstick.
3. Re-insert the dipstick.
4. Pull it out and check the level.
5. If the level is close to MIN then 0.5 litres
should be added. If the level is signifi- cantly below, then an additional amountis required.
6. If required, check the level again, do it after driving a short distance. Then repeatsteps 1-4.
5Does not apply to the 4-cyl. 2.0 litre or 5-cyl. diesel, which have electronic oil level sensor. However, does apply to the B4204T7 engine.

Water and dirt-repellent coating
The windows are treated with a surface coa- ting that improves visibility in difficult weatherconditions.
Water and dirt-repellent coating*There is natural wear of the water-repellent coating.
Maintenance:
• Never use products such as car wax, degreaser or similar on glass surfaces asthis could ruin their water-repellent prop-erties.
• Take care when cleaning so as not todamage the glass surface.
• To avoid damaging glass surfaces whenremoving ice – only use plastic ice scra-pers.
• Treatment with a special finishing agentavailable from Volvo dealers is recom-mended in order to maintain the water-repellent properties. This should be usedfirst after three years and then each year.
IMPORTANT
Do not use a metal ice scraper to remove ice from the windows. Use the heating toremove ice from the door mirrors, see Win-dows and rearview and door mirrors -heating (p. 96).

Rustproofing
The car received a thorough and complete rustproofing at the factory. Parts of the bodyare made of galvanised sheet metal. Theunderbody is protected by a wear-resistantanti-corrosion compound. A thin, penetratingrustproofing fluid was sprayed into theexposed members, cavities, closed sectionsand side doors.
Inspection and maintenanceDirt and road salt can lead to corrosion so itis important to keep the car clean. The car'srustproofing needs to be checked regularlyand touched-up if necessary in order for it tobe maintained. Under normal conditions the rustproofing does not require treatment for approximately12 years. After this period, it should be trea-ted at three-year intervals. Volvo recom-mends that you engage an authorised Volvoworkshop for assistance if the car needs fur-ther treatment.

Carpets and cargo areaRemove inlaid carpets for separate cleaningof the floor carpet and the inlaid carpets. Usea vacuum cleaner to remove dust and dirt.Each inlay mat is secured with pins. Take hold of the inlay mat at each pin and lift the mat straight up. Fit the inlay mat in place by pressing it in at each pin.

Engine oil - adverse driving conditions
Adverse driving conditions can lead to abnor- mally high oil temperature or oil consumption.Below are some examples of adverse drivingconditions. Check the oil level (p. 346) more frequently for long journeys: •towing a caravan or trailer
• in mountainous regions
• at high speeds
• in temperatures colder than -30 °C or hotter than +40 °C.
The above also apply to shorter driving dis- tances at low temperatures. Choose a fully synthetic engine oil for adverse driving conditions. It provides extra protectionfor the engine. Volvo recommends:
IMPORTANT
In order to fulfil the requirements for the engine's service intervals all engines arefilled with a specially adapted syntheticengine oil at the factory. The choice of oilhas been made very carefully with regardto service life, starting characteristics, fuelconsumption and environmental impact. An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service inter-vals can be applied. Only use a prescribedgrade of oil for both filling and oil change,otherwise you will risk affecting service life,starting characteristics, fuel consumptionand environmental impact. Volvo Car Corporation disclaims all war- ranty liability if engine oil of the prescribedgrade and viscosity is not used. Volvo recommends that oil changes are carried out at an authorised Volvo work-shop.
