The appearance of the engine compartment may vary depending on engine model.
WARNING
The cooling fan (located at the front of the engine compartment, behind the radiator)may start or continue to operate (for up to6 minutes) after the engine has beenswitched off.
WARNING
Before performing any operations in the engine compartment, the ignition shouldalways be completely switched off (inmode 0, see Ignition modes (p. 73)) and
there should be no remote keys in the pas-senger compartment. The gear selectorshould be in the P (park) position. If the
engine has been running, wait until it hascooled before touching any components inthe engine compartment. The distributor ignition system operates at very high voltages. Special safety precau-tions must be followed to prevent injury.Always turn the ignition off when:
• Replacing distributor ignition compo- nents e.g. plugs, coil, etc.
• Do not touch any part of the distributorignition system while the engine is run-ning. This may result in unintendedmovements and body injury.

Battery – handling
The battery's service life is affected by the number of starts, if it has been discharged,driving style, driving conditions, weather con-ditions ,etc.
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 coldmay 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 Jump starting (p. 237) for an illustra- tion and additional 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.

Battery – maintenance
Proper battery maintenance can help prolong its service life.
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.

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
battery
Loosen the screw holding the battery
clamp.
Move the battery to the side and lift it up.
WARNING
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead and lead com-pounds, chemicals known to the state ofCalifornia to cause cancer and reproduc-tive harm. Wash hands after handling.
Installation1. Lower the battery into the battery box.
2. Move the battery inward and to the side until it reaches the rear edge of the box.
3. Tighten the clamp that secures the bat- tery.

Fuses – introduction
The fuses help protect the vehicle's electrical components from overloading. There are relay/fuseboxes located in the engine compartment, the passenger com-partment and the trunk. 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.
