When jump starting the car, the following steps are recommended to avoid short circuits or otherdamage:
1. Set the car's electrical system in ignition position 0.
2. Check that the donor battery has a voltage of 12 V.
3. If the donor battery is installed in another car - switch off the donor car's engine and make sure that the two cars do not touch eachother. 4. Connect one of the red jump lead's clamps
to the donor battery's positive terminal (1).
IMPORTANT
Connect the start cable carefully to avoid short circuits with other components in theengine compartment.
5. Open the positive jump-starting point's cover(2).
6. Connect the red jump lead's other clamp onto the car's positive jump-starting point (2).
7. Connect one of the black jump lead's clamps to the donor battery's negative terminal (3).
8. Connect the black jump lead's other clamp onto the car's negative jump-starting point(4).
9. Check that the jump lead clamps are affixed securely so that there are no sparks duringthe starting attempt.

STARTING AND DRIVING

Diesel Diesel is a type of engine fuel that is intended for cars with a diesel engine.
Only use diesel fuel from well-known producers. Never use fuel of dubious quality. Diesel fuelmust fulfil the EN 590 or SS 155435 standard.Diesel engines are sensitive to contaminants inthe fuel, such as excessively high volumes of sul-phur and metals. At low temperatures (lower than 0 °C) a paraffin precipitate may form in the diesel fuel, which maylead to ignition problems. The fuel qualities thatare sold must be adapted for season and climatezone, but for extreme weather conditions, old fuelor moving between climate zones, paraffin precip-itate may occur. The risk of condensation in the fuel tank is reduced if the tank is kept well filled. When refuelling, check that the area around the fuel filler pipe is clean. Avoid spilling fuel onto thepaintwork. Wash off any spillage with detergentand water.
IMPORTANT
Diesel fuel must: •fulfil the EN 590 and/or SS 155435 standards
• have a sulphur content not exceeding10 mg/kg
• have a maximum of 7 vol % FAME 15
(B7).
IMPORTANT
Diesel type fuels that must not be used:
• Special additives
• Marine diesel fuel
• Heating oil
• FAME 16
and vegetable oil.
These fuels do not fulfil the requirements in accordance with Volvo recommendations andgenerate increased wear and engine damagethat is not covered by the Volvo warranty.

Empty tank and diesel engine
Once the engine has stopped due to fuel starva- tion, the fuel system needs a few moments tocarry out a check.
Before starting the engine after the fuel tank has
been filled with diesel - proceed as follows:
1. The remote control key must be inside the car.
2. Set the car in ignition position II - turn the
ignition dial to START without depressing
the brake pedal and hold the knob in the START position for approx. 4 seconds. Then
release the knob, which automatically returns to its starting position.
3. Wait approx. one minute.
4. To start the engine: Depress the brake pedal and turn the ignition dial to START again.
NOTE
Before filling with fuel in the event of fuel shortage:
• Stop the car on as flat/level ground aspossible - if the car is tilting there is a riskof air pockets in the fuel supply.

The towing eye may be used to pull the car up onto a recovery vehicle with a flatbed platform.The car's position and ground clearance deter-mine whether it is possible. If the slope of the recovery vehicle's ramp is too steep, or if the ground clearance under the car isinadequate, then the car may be damaged if youtry to pull it up using the towing eye. If necessary, raise the car by using the recovery vehicle's lifting device. Do not use the towing eye.
WARNING
No one/nothing is allowed to remain behind the recovery vehicle while the car pulled uponto the flatbed platform.
IMPORTANT
The towing eye is only designed for towing on roads -
not for pulling the car unstuck or out
of a ditch. Call a recovery service for recovery assistance.
