WARNING
Never fill above the MAX mark. The level
should never be above MAX or below MIN
as this could lead to engine damage.
WARNING
Do not spill oil onto the hot exhaust mani- fold due to the risk of fire.

Message
Engine oil level
The oil level is checked using the electronic oil level gauge with the thumbwheel when theengine is switched off, see Menu navigation -combined instrument panel (p. 100).
WARNING
If the message Oil service required is
shown, visit a workshop. The oil level may be too high.
IMPORTANT
If notified of low oil level, only fill with the volume specified, for example, 0.5 litres.
NOTE
The system cannot directly detect changes when the oil is filled or drained. The carmust have been driven approx. 30 km andhave been stationary for 2 hours with theengine switched off and on level groundbefore oil level indication is correct.
WARNING
Do not spill oil onto the hot exhaust mani- fold due to the risk of fire.
Measuring the oil level, 4-cyl. 2.0 lIf the oil level needs to be checked then it should be carried out in accordance with thesequence below.
1. Activate key position II; see Key positions
- functions at different levels (p. 70).
6 Does not apply to the B4204T7 engine - see instead the earlier heading "Engine with oil dipstick".7
Engines with electronic oil level sensor do not have a dipstick.

2. Rotate the thumbwheel on the left-handstalk switch to position Oil level.
> You will then see information displayed about the engine oil level. For more information on menu naviga- tion, see Menu navigation - combinedinstrument panel (p. 100).
NOTE
If the right conditions for measuring the oil level are not met (time after engine shut-down, the car's inclination, outside tem- perature, etc.) then the message
Not
available will be shown. This does not
mean that there is something wrong in the car's systems.

IMPORTANT
In the event of the message Oil level low
Refill 0.5 litre, only fill with 0.5 litres.
NOTE
The oil level is only detected by the system during driving. The system cannot directlydetect changes when the oil is filled ordrained. The car must be drivenabout 30 km before the oil level display iscorrect.
WARNING
Do not fill more oil if filling level (3) or (4) appears as shown in the illustration below.The level must never be above MAX or
below MIN, as this could lead to engine
damage.

Coolant - level
The coolant cools the internal combustion engine to the correct operating temperature.The heat that is transferred from the engine tothe coolant can be used to heat the passen-ger compartment. The coolant level must lie between the
MIN
and MAX marks on the expansion tank.
Checking the level and topping up
When topping up the coolant, follow the instructions on the packaging. It is importantthat the mixture of coolant concentrate andwater is correct for the prevailing weatherconditions. Never top up with water only. Therisk of freezing increases with both too littleand too much coolant concentrate.

Filling
The fluid reservoir is located on the driver's side.The fluid reservoir is protected under the cover over the cold zone in the engine com-partment. The round cover must be removedfirst before the reservoir cap can be reached.
Turn and open the cover located on the covering.
Unscrew the reservoir cap and fill the fluid. The level must be between the MIN
and MAX marks, which are located on
the inside of the reservoir.
IMPORTANT
Do not forget to refit the cap.
Power steering fluid - level
The power steering fluid level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. The fluid
does not need to be changed. Cars with the 4-cyl. 2.0 litre engine have no oil reservoir for the power steering 9
.
IMPORTANT
Keep the area around the power steering fluid reservoir clean when checking. Thecover must not be opened.
Check the level frequently. The fluid does not require changing. The fluid level must bebetween the MIN and MAX marks. For rec-
ommended fluid grade, see Power steeringfluid - grade (p. 401).
NOTE
If a fault should arise in the power steering system, or if the engine is switched off andmust be towed, then the car can still besteered.
9 However, cars with the B4204T7 engine have an oil reservoir for the power steering.

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.
