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 electrical equipment in thevehicle. The hybrid battery is used to start thecombustion engine. The start battery should only be replaced by a workshop 15
.
The start battery is a 12 V AGM (Absorbed Glass Mat) battery, dimensioned for regenerative charg-ing and to support the function of the vehicle'svarious 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.
Positive connection point
Negative connection point
CAUTION
It is not possible to charge another vehicle's battery by means of current through thecharging points. Using the charging points tocharge another vehicle's battery could causea fuse to blow, which would cause the charg-ing points to stop working.

An authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
606
CAUTION
Only a modern battery charger with controlled charge voltage should be used to charge thestarter battery. The rapid charging functionshould not be used as this could damage thebattery.
NOTE
If both the starter battery and the hybrid bat- tery are discharged, both batteries must be
charged. In such cases, it is not possible to charge only the hybrid battery first. The starter battery must have a certain level of charge for it to be possible to charge thehybrid 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.

Hybrid battery
The vehicle's electric motor is powered by a rechargeable, maintenance-free, lithium-ionhybrid battery.
NOTE
The vehicle cannot be started if the hybrid battery is discharged.
NOTE
If both the starter battery and the hybrid bat- tery are discharged, both batteries must be
charged. In such cases, it is not possible to charge only the hybrid battery first. The starter battery must have a certain level of charge for it to be possible to charge thehybrid battery.
WARNING
Hybrid battery replacement may only be per- formed by a workshop – an authorized Volvoworkshop is recommended.
CoolantThe hybrid battery's cooling system has its own expansion tank.
CAUTION
Filling the hybrid battery coolant should only be performed by a workshop – an authorizedVolvo workshop is recommended.
SpecificationsType: Lithium-ion
Power reserve: 10.4 kWh.
NOTE
The capacity of the hybrid battery decreases with age and use, which could result inincreased use of the combustion engine,leading to higher fuel consumption andreduced electric motor range.
