Before a long journey
Before a long journey, it makes good sense to go through the following points: •Check that the engine is working normally and that fuel consumption (p. 403) is nor-mal.
• Make sure that there are no leaks (fuel, oilor other fluid).
• Check all bulbs and tyre tread depths.
• Carrying a warning triangle (p. 329) is alegal requirement in certain countries.

• Changing wheels - removing wheels (p.324)
• Lamp replacement (p. 352)
Winter driving
For winter driving it is important to perform certain checks in order to ensure that the carcan be driven safely. Check the following in particular before the cold season:
• The engine coolant (p. 349) must contain at least 50% glycol. This mixture protectsthe engine against frost erosion down toapproximately –35 °C. To achieve opti-mum antifreeze protection, different typesof glycol must not be mixed.
• The fuel tank must be kept filled to pre-vent condensation.
• Engine oil viscosity is important. Oils withlower viscosity (thinner oils) facilitate star-ting in cold weather and also reduce fuelconsumption while the engine is cold. Formore information on suitable oils, seeEngine oil - adverse driving conditions (p.395).
IMPORTANT
Low viscosity oil must not be used for hard driving or in hot weather.
•The condition of the starter battery and charge level must be inspected. Coldweather places great demands on the starter battery and its capacity is reducedby the cold.
• Use washer fluid (p. 361) to avoid iceforming in the washer fluid reservoir.
To achieve optimum roadholding Volvo rec- ommends using winter tyres on all wheels ifthere is a risk of snow or ice.
NOTE
The use of winter tyres is a legal require- ment in certain countries. Studded tyresare not permitted in all countries.
