SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Demanding driving
In demanding driving conditions, such as operating
the vehicle in hot weather, towing a trailer, or
driving for extended periods at higher altitudes
than normal, it may be advisable to switch to
higher octane fuel (91 or higher) or to change
gasoline brands to fully utilize your engine’s
capacity, and for the smoothest possible operation.
NOTE
When switching to higher octane fuel or
changing gasoline brands, it may be necessary
to fill the tank more than once before a
difference in engine operation is noticeable.Fuel FormulationsDo not use gasoline that contains lead as a knock
inhibitor, and do not use lead additives. Besides
damaging the exhaust emission control systems
on your vehicle, lead has been strongly linked to
certain forms of cancer.
Many fuels contain benzene as a solvent.
Unburned benzene has been strongly linked to
certain forms of cancer. If you live in an area where
you must fill your own gas tank, take precautions.
These may include:• standing upwind away from the filler nozzle
while refueling
• refueling only at gas stations with vapor
recovery systems that fully seal the mouth of
the filler neck during refueling
• wearing neoprene gloves while handling a fuel
filler nozzle.
Use of AdditivesWith the exception of gas line antifreeze during
winter months, do not add solvents, thickeners,
or other store-bought additives to your vehicle’s
fuel, cooling, or lubricating systems. Overuse may
damage your engine, and some of these additives
contain organically volatile chemicals. Do not
needlessly expose yourself to these chemicals.
WARNING
Never carry a cell phone that is switched
on while refueling your vehicle. If the phone
rings, this may cause a spark that could ignite
gasoline fumes, resulting in fire and injury.
WARNING
Carbon monoxide is a poisonous, colorless, and
odorless gas. It is present in all exhaust gases.
If you ever smell exhaust fumes inside the
vehicle, make sure the passenger compartment
is ventilated, and immediately return the
vehicle to a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician for correction.
Deposit control gasoline (detergent
additives)Volvo recommends the use of detergent gasoline
to control engine deposits. Detergent gasoline
is effective in keeping injectors and intake valves
clean. Consistent use of deposit control gasolines
will help ensure good drivability and fuel economy.
If you are not sure whether the gasoline contains
deposit control additives, check with the service
station operator.
NOTE
Volvo does not recommend the use of external
fuel injector cleaning systems.Unleaded fuelEach Volvo has a three-way catalytic converter
and must use only unleaded gasoline. U.S. and
Canadian regulations require that pumps delivering
unleaded gasoline be labeled “UNLEADED”. Only
these pumps have nozzles which fit your vehicle’s
filler inlet. It is unlawful to dispense leaded fuel
into a vehicle labeled “unleaded gasoline only”.
Leaded gasoline damages the threeway catalytic
converter and the heated oxygen sensor system.
Repeated use of leaded gasoline will lessen the
effectiveness of the emission control system and
could result in loss of emission warranty coverage.
State and local vehicle inspection programs will
make detection of misfueling easier, possibly
resulting in emission test failure for misfueled
vehicles.

by their own specific limited warranty for a
different period. For those parts/accessories,
the applicable warranty is supplied at the time
of purchase, including a list of conditions and
limitations.
Customer AssistanceShould you have questions regarding the
warranties or repairs, please review the article
“Customer Support and Assistance” in this
booklet for owner information and instructions.
Non-commercial vehicles are covered by On Call
®,
a roadside assistance program which provides
coverage for some specific items not covered by
the warranties (e.g., towing). A separate booklet
describing this program is supplied in your
Owner’s Wallet.
Wear and Tear ItemsAs part of your vehicle’s normal service and
maintenance requirements, certain parts may
need to be replaced due to wear and tear. Since
these parts are consumed at varying rates,
replacement is based on the operation and
condition of your vehicle and on fixed schedules
under normal operation and use of your vehicle.
These items include, but may not be limited to, the
following list: filters, fuses, belts, brake pads, brake
rotors, wiper blades, shock absorbers, floor mats,
upholstery/rugs, etc.
Replacement of these items are the owner’s
responsibility, with the exception of those items covered during the Adjustments Coverage Period
(see the following section) or where specific
manufacturing defects may be demonstrated.
Adjustments CoverageAdjustments which are refinements to the original
factory fittings and alignments, and which are
required as part of the break-in period, will be
made during the Adjustments Coverage Period.
Exceptions are items covered under normal
maintenance services, including Pre-Delivery or
items excluded in the New Vehicle section. The
duration of the adjustment coverage is twelve
(12) months or 12,000 miles/20,000 kilometers,
whichever occurs first.
The term “Adjustments” as used in this warranty
refers to minor repairs not usually associated with
the replacement of parts or normal maintenance
service items. Parts which are covered for
replacement because of wear during the
Adjustments Period only are: brake pads, brake
rotors and shock absorbers. These items may also
be covered under the Basic Warranty Period if
manufacturing defects cause the failure. Examples
of labor only repairs which are covered during the
Adjustments Period are wheel balancing, window
regulator adjustment and hood adjustment.Battery (non-hybrid models only)Under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty, the

Seat belts: “Something We Believe
In”Seat belts are an integral part of the safety
system engineered into each Volvo.
Despite our strongest recommendations, and
your best intentions, not wearing a seat belt is
like believing “it’ll never happen to me!”
Volvo urges you and all adult occupants of your
car to properly wear seat belts in all seating
positions, and ensure that children are properly
restrained in the rear seats only, using an infant
car seat or booster seat determined by age,
weight and height.
Fact : In every state/province, some type of child
restraint legislation has been passed. Additionally,
most states/provinces have already made it
mandatory for occupants of a car to use seat
belts.
So, urging you to “buckle up” is not just our
recommendation – it’s becoming the law! The few
seconds it takes to buckle up may one day allow
you to say, “It’s a good thing I was wearing my
seat belt.”
Instructions for proper seat belt usage can be
found in your Owner’s Manual..
