NOTE
A used battery should be disposed of in an environmentally responsible manner. Con-sult your Volvo retailer or take the batteryto a recycling station.
Handling
•Check that the battery cables are cor- rectly connected and tightened.
• Never disconnect the battery when theengine is running (for example, whenreplacing the battery).
• If the battery is fully discharged a numberof times, this may shorten its service life.
• The service life of a battery is affected byfactors such as the number of starts, driv-ing conditions and climate. Extreme cold may also further decrease the battery’sstarting capacity.
• Because the battery’s starting capacitydecreases with time, it may be necessaryto recharge it if the vehicle is not drivenfor an extended period of time or if thevehicle is usually only driven short dis-tances.
• Never use a quick charger to charge thebattery. Only traditional types of batterychargers should be used.
CAUTION
The infotainment system's energy-saving feature may not function correctly or at all,and/or a message may be displayed if abattery charger or jumper cables are notconnected properly.
• The negative terminal on the battery must
never be used to connect a
jumper cable or a battery charger.Only the ground point on the chassismay be used.
See page 125 for an illustration and addi- tional information.

WARNING
•Never expose the battery to open flame or electric spark.
• Do not smoke near the battery.
• Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Donot allow battery fluid to contact eyes,skin, fabrics or painted surfaces. Ifcontact occurs, flush the affected areaimmediately with water. Obtain medi-cal help immediately if eyes are affec-ted.
NOTE
The life of the battery is shortened if it becomes discharged repeatedly.
Maintenance
•
Use a screw driver to open the caps or cover and a flashlight to inspect the level.
• If necessary, add distilled water. The levelshould never be above the indicator.
• The fluid level should be checked if thebattery has been recharged.
• After inspection, be sure the cap overeach battery cell or the cover is securelyin place.
• Check that the battery cables are cor-rectly connected and properly tightened. •
Never disconnect the battery when theengine is running, or when the key is inthe ignition. This could damage the vehi-cle's electrical system.
• The battery should be disconnected fromthe vehicle when a battery charger isused directly on the battery.
• To help keep the battery in good condi-tion, the vehicle should be driven for atleast 15 minutes a week or connected toa charger with an automatic chargingfunction.
• If the battery is fully discharged a numberof times, this may shorten its service life.Keeping the battery fully charged helpsprolong its service life.
• The service life of a battery is affected byfactors such as driving conditions and cli-mate. Extreme cold may also furtherdecrease the battery’s starting capacity.
• Because the battery’s starting capacitydecreases with time, it may be necessaryto recharge it if the vehicle is not drivenfor an extended period of time or if thevehicle is usually only driven short dis-tances.
CAUTION
•Always use distilled or deionized water (battery water).
• Never fill above the level mark in thecell.

RemovalSwitch off the ignition, remove the remote key from the ignition slot and wait at least5 minutes before disconnecting the battery sothat all information in the vehicle's electricalsystem can be stored in the control modules.
Open the clips on the front cover and remove the cover.
Release the rubber molding so that the rear cover is free.
Remove the rear cover by pulling it away.
Detach the black negative cable.
Detach the red positive cable
Detach the ventilation hose from the

Replacing fuses
There are relay/fuseboxes located in the engine compartment, the passenger com-partment and the cargo area. If an electrical component fails to function, this may be due to a blown fuse. The easiestway to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it. To do so:
1. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is diffi-cult to remove, a special fuse removal
tool is located on the inside of the engine compartment fusebox cover .
2. From the side, examine the curved metal wire in the fuse to see if it is intact.
If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse of the same color and amperage (written on thefuse). If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electri- cal system inspected by a trained and quali-fied Volvo service technician.
WARNING
Never use metal objects or fuses with higher amperage than those stated on thefollowing pages. Doing so could seriouslydamage or overload the vehicle's electricalsystem.
