Adverse driving conditions for engine oil Adverse driving conditions can lead to abnor- mally high oil temperature or oil consumption.Below are some examples of adverse drivingconditions.
Check the oil level more frequently for long jour- neys:• towing a caravan or trailer
• in mountainous regions
• at high speeds
• in temperatures colder than -30 °C or hotterthan +40 °C.
The above also apply to shorter driving distancesat low temperatures. Choose a fully synthetic engine oil for adverse driving conditions. It provides extra protection forthe engine.
Volvo recommends:
IMPORTANT
In order to fulfil the requirements for the engine's service intervals all engines are filledwith a specially adapted synthetic engine oilat the factory. The choice of oil has beenmade very carefully with regard to service life,starting characteristics, fuel consumption andenvironmental impact. An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service intervals canbe applied. Only use a prescribed grade of oilfor both filling and oil change, otherwise thereis a risk of the service life, starting characte-ristics, fuel consumption and environmentalimpact of the car being affected. If engine oil of the prescribed grade and vis- cosity is not used, engine related componentsmay become damaged. Volvo Car Corporationdisclaims any liability for any such damage. Volvo recommends that oil changes are car- ried out at an authorised Volvo workshop.

NOTE
The transmission fluid does not need to be changed under normal driving conditions.
Brake fluid — specifications
The medium in a hydraulic brake system is called brake fluid, and it is used to transfer pres-sure from e.g. a brake pedal via a master brakecylinder to one or more slave cylinders, which inturn act on a mechanical brake.
Prescribed grade: Volvo Original Dot 4 class 6
or equivalent.
NOTE
It is recommended that brake fluid is changed or filled by an authorised Volvo workshop.
1 Water quality must fulfil the standard STD 1285.1.

Air conditioning — specifications
The car's climate control system uses a refriger- ant, either R1234yf or R134a depending onmarket. Information about which refrigerant thecar's climate control system uses is printed on adecal located on the inside of the bonnet.
Prescribed grades and volumes of fluids and lubricants in the air conditioning system can beread in the tables below.

Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions
Fuel consumption and CO2 emissions can be affected negatively by several causes.
Examples of reasons for increased fuel consump- tion are as follows:• If the car is equipped with extra equipmentthat affects the car's weight.
• The driver's driving style.
• If the customer chooses wheels other thanthose fitted as standard on the model's basicversion then rolling resistance may increase.
• High speed results in increased wind resis-tance.
• Fuel quality, road and traffic conditions,weather and the condition of the car.
A combination of the above-mentioned examplescan result in significantly increased consumption.
NOTE
Extreme weather conditions, driving with a trailer or driving at high altitudes in combina-tion with fuel quality are factors that consider-ably increase the car's fuel consumption.
