MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
578If the engine oil is not checked regularly and the level becomes low, this could cause seriousengine damage.
CAUTION
To satisfy the requirements for the engine's service intervals, all engines are factory-filledwith a specially adapted synthetic engine oil.Great care has been put into the choice of oil,with consideration given to service life, starta-bility, fuel consumption and environmentalimpact. For the recommended service intervals to apply, an approved engine oil must be used.Only use the prescribed oil grade to top off orchange the oil. Otherwise, there is a risk ofthe vehicle's service life, startability, fuel con-sumption and environmental impact beingaffected. Failure to use engine oil of the prescribed grade and viscosity could cause damage toengine-related components. Volvo Car Corpo-ration disclaims warranty liability for such typeof damage. Volvo recommends entrusting oil changes to an authorized Volvo workshop.
Volvo uses different systems to warn if the oil level is too low/high or the oil pressure is low. Onengine variants with an oil pressure sensor, a
warning symbol is displayed in the instrument panel when oil pressure is low
. On engine
variants with an oil level sensor, the
warn-
ing symbol in the instrument panel and display messages are used to alert the driver. Someengine variants have both systems. Contact aVolvo retailer for more information. Change the engine oil and oil filter according to the schedule specified in the Warranty and Main-tenance Records Information booklet. Oils of ahigher grade than that specified may be used. Ifthe vehicle is driven in adverse conditions, Volvorecommends using an oil with a higher gradethan that specified.

It may be necessary to top up engine oil between regularly scheduled services. No action is necessary with regard to engine oil level until a message appears in the instrumentpanel.
WARNING
If this symbol is shown together with the message Engine oil level
Service required, visit a workshop
– an authorized Volvo workshop is
recommended. The oil level may be too high.
CAUTION
If this symbol is shown together with a message about low oil level, for example
Engine oil level low
Refill 1 liter, fill only with the indi-
cated volume, e.g. 1 liter (1 quart).
WARNING
Do not spill oil on the hot exhaust pipes as this could cause a fire.
Viewing oil level in the center displayThe oil level can be viewed using the electronic oil level gauge in the center display once thevehicle has been started. The oil level should bechecked regularly.
1. Open the Car status app from App view in
the center display.
2. Tap
Status to display the oil level.
Oil level graphic in the center display.
NOTE
The system cannot directly detect changes when the oil is filled or drained. The vehiclemust have been driven approximately 30 km(20 miles) and have been stationary5 minutes on a level surface and with theengine off before the correct oil level will bedisplayed.

Refilling coolant
Coolant helps keep the combustion engine at the right operating temperature. The heat trans-ferred from the engine to the coolant can beused to warm the passenger compartment.
When refilling coolant, follow the instructions on the package. Never fill the cooling system withonly water. The risk of freezing is increased withtoo low or too high amounts of coolant. If there is coolant under the vehicle, smoke from the cooling system, or if more than 2 liters (about2 quarts) of coolant has been added to the sys-tem, there could be something wrong with thecooling system and starting the vehicle coulddamage the engine. Call a tow truck and do notattempt to start the engine.
WARNING
The coolant may be very hot. Never unscrew the cap when the coolant is hot. If coolantmust be filled, unscrew the expansion tankcap slowly to relieve overpressure.
Coolant expansion tank, left-hand drive vehicle.

CAUTION
Only a modern battery charger with controlled charge voltage should be used to charge thestarter battery and support battery. The rapidcharging function should not be used as thiscould damage the battery.
CAUTION
Failure to observe the following could cause the infotainment energy save mode to tempo-rarily stop working and/or a message in thedriver's display regarding the state of chargeof the starter battery may be temporarilyincorrect after an external starter battery orbattery charger has been connected:
• The negative battery terminal of the vehi- cle's starter battery must
never be used
to connect an external starter battery orbattery charger – only the vehicle's neg-
ative charging point should be used as
a grounding point.
NOTE
If the starter battery becomes discharged too many times, it will shorten its service life. The service life of the starter battery is affec- ted by several factors, such as driving condi-tions and climate. The starting capacity of thebattery reduces gradually over time. The bat-tery must therefore be recharged if the vehi-cle is not used or a long period of time or if itis only driven short distances. Severe cold fur-ther limits the starting capacity. To keep the starter battery in a good condi- tion, the vehicle should be driven at least15 minutes per week or the battery should beconnected to a battery charger with automatictrickle charging. A starter battery that is always kept fully charged has the maximum service life.
Location
The start battery is located in the cargo compartment.
WARNING
If the starter battery is disconnected, the func- tion for automatic opening and closing mustbe reset to function correctly. A reset isrequired in order for the pinch protection towork.
CAUTION
On certain models, the battery is secured with a tensioning strap. Make sure that the ten-sioning strap is always securely tightened.
