IMPORTANT
Engine damage can occur if water enters the air filter. In depths greater than 25 cm, water could enter the transmission. This reduces the lubri-cating ability of the oils and shortens theservice life of these systems. Damage to any component, engine, transmis- sion, turbocharger, differential or its internalcomponents caused by flooding, hydrostaticlocking or oil shortage, is not covered by thewarranty. In the event of the engine stalling in water, do not try restart - tow the car from the water toa workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop isrecommended. Risk of engine breakdown.

Overheating in the engine and drive system
Under special conditions, for example hard driv- ing in hilly terrain and hot climate, there is a riskthat the engine and drive system may overheat -in particular with a heavy load.
• In the event of overheating, the engine's power may be limited temporarily.
• Remove any auxiliary lamps from in front ofthe grille when driving in hot climates.
• If the temperature in the engine's coolingsystem becomes too high then a warningsymbol is illuminated and the driver display shows the message
Engine temperature
High temperature Stop safely. Stop the
car in a safe way and allow the engine to run at idling speed for several minutes and cooldown.
• If the message
Engine temperature High
temperature Turn off engine or Engine
coolant Level low, turn off engine is
shown, stop the car and switch off the engine.
• In the event of overheating in the gearbox, analternative gear shift program will beselected. In addition, a built-in protectionfunction is activated that, amongst otherthings, illuminates a warning symbol and thedriver display shows the message
Transmission warm Reduce speed to
lower temperature or Transmission hot Stop safely, wait for cooling
. Follow the
recommendation given, reduce speed or stop the car in a safe way and allow the engine torun at idling speed for several minutes toenable the gearbox to cool down.
• If the car overheats, the air conditioning maybe switched off temporarily.
• Do not turn the engine off immediately youstop after a hard drive.
NOTE
It is normal for the engine's cooling fan to operate for a time after the engine has beenswitched off.

Driving with a trailer under special conditions
When driving with a trailer in hilly terrain in a hot climate there may be a risk of overheating.
In the event of overheating, a warning symbol illu- minates in the driver display together with a mes-sage, see section "Overheating in the engine anddrive system". The following only applies to cars with automatic gearbox. The automatic gearbox selects the optimum gear related to load and engine speed.
Steep inclinesDo not lock the automatic gearbox in a highergear than the engine "can cope with" - it is notalways a good idea to drive at a high gear withlow engine speed.
Parking on a hill1. Depress the brake pedal fully.
2. Activate the parking brake.3. Select gear position P.
4. Release the brake pedal.Block the wheels with chocks when parking a car with hitched trailer on a hill.
Starting on a hill1. Depress the brake pedal fully. 2.
Select gear position D.
3. Releasing the parking brake.
4. Release the brake pedal and start driving off.

WHEELS AND TYRES
}}
* Option/accessory.495
IMPORTANT
Risk of overheating. The compressor must not run for more than 10 minutes.
5. Inflate the tyre to the pressure specified on
the tyre pressure label on the driver side door pillar. (Release air using the pressure reduc-ing valve if the tyre pressure is too high.)
6. Switch off the compressor. Detach the airhose and cable.
7. Refit the dust cap.

When changing wheels
The car's wheels can be changed, e.g. to winter wheels or a spare wheel.
Follow the relevant instructions for removing and fitting wheels.
When changing to another tyre
dimension
Check that the tyre dimension is approved foruse on the car. Contact an authorised Volvo workshop for updat- ing the software at each change of tyre dimen-sion. A software download may be necessaryboth when changing to larger and smaller dimen-sions, and also when switching between summerand winter wheels.

Removing a wheel
Instructions for removing a wheel when chang- ing wheels.
1. Set up the warning triangle and activate the hazard warning lights if a tyre is being changed in a trafficked location.
2. Apply the parking brake and engage gear position P, or engage first gear if the car has
a manual gearbox. Applies to cars with
Leveling Control* : If
the car is equipped with air suspension, this must be disabled before the car is raised with a jack *.

IMPORTANT
When replacing the starter battery or support battery, a battery of AGM 15
type must be fit-
ted.
NOTE
• The higher the current take-off in the car, the more the alternator must be workingand the batteries charging = Increasedfuel consumption.
• When the capacity of the starter batteryhas fallen below the lowest permissiblelevel then the Start/Stop function is dis-engaged.
Temporarily reduced Start/Stop function due to high current take-off means: •
The engine starts automatically 16
without the
driver depressing the clutch pedal (manualgearbox).
• The engine starts automatically without thedriver lifting his/her foot off the foot brakepedal (automatic gearbox).
The support battery normally requires no moreservice than the normal starter battery. A work-shop should be contacted in the event of ques-tions or problems - an authorised Volvo workshopis recommended.
IMPORTANT
If the following instruction is not observed then the Start/Stop function may temporarilycease to work after the connection of anexternal starter battery or battery charger:
• The negative battery terminal on the car's starter battery must
never be used for
connecting an external starter battery orbattery charger - only the car's negative
charging point may be used as the
grounding point.
NOTE
If the starter battery has been discharged so much that the car has no normal electricalfunctions and the engine is then jump-startedwith an external battery or a battery charger,the Start/Stop function will continue to beactivated. If the Start/Stop function thenauto-stops the engine shortly after, there is agreat risk that engine auto-start will fail dueto insufficient battery capacity, because thebattery has not had the opportunity torecharge. If the car has been jump-started, or if there is insufficient time to charge the battery with abattery charger, the recommendation is totemporarily deactivate the Start/Stop functionuntil the battery has been recharged by thecar. In an outside temperature of +15 °C, thebattery needs to be charged for at least1 hour by the car. In a lower outside tempera-ture, the charging time may increase to3-4 hours. The recommendation is to chargethe battery using an external battery charger.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

IMPORTANT
Avoid washing the car with cleaning agent with a pH value lower than 3.5 or higher than11.5. This may result in discolouration of ano-dised aluminium parts such as roof rack andaround the side windows. Never use metal polishing agent on anodised aluminium parts, this can result in discoloura-tion and destroy the surface treatment.
RimsOnly use rim cleaning agent recommended by Volvo. Strong rim cleaning agents can damage the sur- face and cause stains on chrome-plated alumi-nium rims.

Polishing and waxing
Polish and wax the car if the paintwork is dull or to give the paintwork extra protection. The cardoes not need to be polished until it is at leastone year old. However, the car can be waxedduring this time. Do not polish or wax the car indirect sunlight.
Wash and dry the car thoroughly before you begin polishing or waxing. Clean off asphalt andtar stains using tar remover or white spirit. Morestubborn stains can be removed using fine rub-bing paste designed for car paintwork. Polish first with a polish and then wax with liquid or solid wax. Follow the instructions on the pack-aging carefully. Many preparations contain bothpolish and wax.
IMPORTANT
Avoid waxing and polishing on plastic and rubber. When using degreasant on plastic and rubber, only rub with light pressure if it is necessary.Use a soft washing sponge. Polishing glossy trim mouldings could wear away or damage the glossy surface layer. Polishing agent that contains abrasive must not be used.
IMPORTANT
Only paint treatment recommended by Volvo should be used. Other treatment such as pre-serving, sealing, protection, lustre sealing orsimilar could damage the paintwork. Paint-work damage caused by such treatments isnot covered by Volvo warranty.
