Deactivate the rain sensor by pressing the rain sensor button or moving the lever upward to another wiper mode. The rain sensor is automatically deactivated in ignition mode 0 or when the engine is switched
off. The rain sensor is also automatically deactivated when the wiper blades are put in the serviceposition. The rain sensor will reactivate whenservice mode is switched off.
CAUTION
The windshield wipers may start inadvertently and be damaged in automatic car washes.Deactivate the rain sensor when the engine is running or when the ignition is in mode I or II.
The symbol in the instrument panel will go out.

–Move the right-hand steering wheel lever toward the steering wheel to start the wind-shield and headlight washers.
> After the lever is released, the wipers make several extra sweeps.
CAUTION
Avoid activating the washer system when it is frozen or the fluid reservoir is empty. Other-wise, there is a risk of damaging the pump.
Headlight washer *To save washer fluid, the headlights are washed automatically according to a defined intervalwhen the headlights are on.
Reduced washingWhen there is about 1 liter (1 qt) of washer fluid left in the reservoir and the Washer fluid Level
low, refill message is displayed in the instrument
panel together with the
symbol, the washer
fluid supply to the headlights is cut off. This is to prioritize windshield cleaning and visibilitythrough it. The headlights are only washed if highor low beam is on.

Preparing for a long trip
It is important to have the vehicle's systems and equipment checked carefully before driving longdistances.
Check that:
• the engine is running properly and that fuel consumption is normal
• there are no leaks (fuel, oil or other fluid)
• the brake pedal is functioning optimally
• all lights are working
‒
adjust the headlight
height if the vehicle is carrying a heavy load
• tire tread depth and air pressure are at cor-rect levels. Change to snow tires when driv-ing in areas where there is a risk of snowy oricy roads.
• the start battery is sufficiently charged
• the wiper blades are in good condition

Winter driving
It is important to check the vehicle before driving in cold/snowy conditions to make sure it can bedriven safely.
Before the cold season arrives:
• Make sure the engine coolant contains 50% antifreeze. This mixture helps protect theengine from frost erosion down toapprox. -35 °C (-31 °F). Do not mix differenttypes of antifreeze as this could pose ahealth risk.
• Keep the fuel tank well filled to prevent con-densation from forming.
• Check the viscosity of the engine oil. Oil withlow viscosity (thinner oil) improves cold-weather starting and reduces fuel consump-tion when driving with a cold engine.
CAUTION
Low-viscosity oil should not be used with hard driving or in hot weather.
•
Check the condition and charge level of the start battery. Cold weather places greaterdemands on the start battery and reduces itscapacity.
• Use washer fluid containing antifreeze tohelp prevent ice from forming in the washerfluid reservoir.

Slippery driving conditionsFor optimal traction and roadholding, Volvo rec- ommends using snow tires on all wheels when-ever there is a risk of snow or ice on the road.
NOTE
Certain countries require use of winter tires by law. Not all countries permit the use ofstudded tires.
Practice driving on slippery surfaces under con- trolled conditions to learn how the vehicle reacts.

Driving through standing water
Driving the vehicle through a deep pool of stand- ing water on a water-covered roadway is calledfording. This must be done with great caution.
The vehicle can be driven through water up to a depth of 25 cm (9.8 in) at no more than walkingspeed. Be particularly careful when drivingthrough flowing water. When driving through standing water, drive slowly and do not stop the vehicle. When you havepassed the water, press lightly on the brake pedaland check that the brakes are functioning prop-erly. Water, mud, slush, etc. can make the brakelinings slippery, resulting in delayed brakingeffect.
• If the vehicle is equipped with contacts for anelectric heater or trailer coupling, clean theseafter driving in water or mud.
• Do not allow the vehicle to stand in water upto the sills any longer than absolutely neces-sary. This could result in electrical malfunc-tions.
CAUTION
• Engine damage could occur if water enters the air cleaner.
• If water enters the transmission, the lubri-cating ability of the oils is reduced andthe service life of these systems is short-ened.
• Damage to any component, engine,transmission, turbocharger, differential orits internal components caused by flood-ing, vapor lock or insufficient oil is notcovered under warranty.
• If the engine stalls while the vehicle is inwater, do not attempt to restart it. Havethe vehicle towed out of the water to aworkshop. An authorized Volvo workshopis recommended. Risk of engine failure.
