Emission inspection readiness
How do states use OBD II for emission
inspections?
Many states connect a computer directly to a vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can thenread "faults." In some states, this type of inspec-tion has replaced the tailpipe emission test.
How can my vehicle fail OBD II emission
inspection?
Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspection for any of the following reasons:
• If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, yourvehicle may fail inspection.
• If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit,but went out without any action on your part,OBD II will still have a recorded fault. Yourvehicle may pass or fail, depending on theinspection practices in your area.
• If you had recent service that required dis-connecting the battery, OBD II diagnosticinformation may be incomplete and "notready" for inspection. A vehicle that is notready may fail inspection.
How can I prepare for my next OBD II
emission inspection?
• If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit - or was lit but went out without service, have your vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary, servicedby a qualified Volvo technician.
• If you recently had service for a lit CheckEngine light, or if you had service thatrequired disconnecting the battery, a periodof driving is necessary to bring the OBD IIsystem to "ready" for inspection. Two half-hour trips of mixed stop-and-go/highwaydriving are typically needed to allow OBD II toreach readiness. Your Volvo retailer can pro-vide you with more information on planning atrip.
• Maintain your vehicle in accordance with yourvehicle's maintenance schedule.
Owner maintenancePeriodic maintenance requirements and intervalsare described in your vehicle's Warranty andService Records Information booklet. The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenance services.
Each time the car is refueled:
•Check the engine oil level.
• Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and taillights.
Monthly:
• Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect the tires for wear.
• Check that engine coolant and other fluidlevels are between the indicated "min" and"max" markings.
• Clean interior glass surfaces with a glasscleaner and soft paper towels.
• Wipe driver information displays with a softcloth.
• Visually inspect battery terminals for corro-sion. Corrosion may indicate a loose terminalconnector, or a battery near the end of itsuseful service life. Consult your Volvo retailerfor additional information.
As needed:
Wash the car, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can be caused by a buildup ofdirt, and corrosion that can be caused by salt res-idues. Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshield, and from other placeswhere they may collect.

WARNING
Bear in mind that the cooling fan (located at the front of the engine compartment behindthe radiator) may start or continue runningautomatically up to about 6 minutes after theengine is turned off. Always entrust engine washing to a workshop – an authorized Volvo workshop is recom-mended. If the engine is hot, there is a risk offire.
WARNING
The ignition system works with extremely high and dangerous voltages. The vehicle electrical system should always be in ignition mode
0
when work in being performed in the engine compartment. Do not touch any spark plugs or ignition coils when the vehicle electrical system is in igni- tion mode II or when the engine is warm.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
584If 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.

Start battery
The vehicle has a single-pole electrical system that uses the chassis and engine mount as con-ductors. The start battery is used to start the electrical system and power the starter motor and otherelectrical equipment in the vehicle. The start battery should only be replaced by a workshop 17
.
The vehicle has a voltage-regulated alternating current generator. The starter battery is a 12 V battery, designed for the carbon dioxide reducing functions Start/Stopand regenerative charging, and to support thefunctionality of the car's different systems. The service life and performance of the start bat- tery are affected by factors such as driving style,driving conditions, climate, battery discharges,number of starts, etc.
• Never disconnect the start battery while theengine is running.
• Make sure the cables to the start battery arecorrectly connected and the clamps aresecurely tightened.
WARNING
•Batteries generate hydrogen gas, which is flammable and explosive.
• Do not connect the jumper cable to anypart of the fuel system or to any movingparts. Avoid touching hot manifolds.
• Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do notallow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin,fabrics or painted surfaces.
• If contact occurs, flush the affected areaimmediately with water. Obtain medicalhelp immediately if eyes are affected.
• Never expose the battery to open flameor electric spark. Do not smoke near thebattery. Failure to follow the instructionsfor jump starting can lead to injury.
Connection points
WARNING
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING Battery posts, terminals, and related accesso- ries contain lead and lead compounds, chemi-cals known to the state of California to causecancer and reproductive harm. Wash handsafter handling. Use the vehicle's connection points in the engine compartment to connect an external start batteryor battery charger. The battery terminals on the car's starter battery in the luggage/cargo area must
not be used.
If the start battery is being charged, the support battery will also be charged.

Support battery In addition to the start battery, vehicles equipped with the Start/Stop function also have a supportbattery.
Vehicles with the Start/Stop function are equip- ped with two 12-volt batteries ‒ a heavy-duty
start battery and a support battery that provides extra current during the Start/Stop function'sstart sequence.
The support battery is located in a box next to the spring strut in the engine compartment.
NOTE
• The higher the current consumption in the vehicle, the more the alternator has towork and the batteries have to becharged = increased fuel consumption.
• When the starter battery capacity hasdropped below the lowest permissiblelevel, the Start/Stop function is disen-gaged.
When the Start/Stop function is temporarily reduced due to high current consumption:
• The engine will auto-start, even if the driverdoes not lift their foot from the brake pedal.
The support battery does not normally requiremore service than the start battery. If you have any questions or concerns, consult a workshop ‒
an authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
CAUTION
If the following is not observed, the Start/ Stop function may temporarily stop workingafter connection of an external starter batteryor battery charger: • 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.
