STARTING AND DRIVING
468
Preparing for a long trip
It is important to have the vehicle's systems andequipment checked carefully before driving longdistances.
Check that:
the engine is running properly and that fuelconsumption is normal
there are no leaks (fuel, oil or other fluid)
the brake pedal is functioning optimally
all lights are working ‒ adjust the headlightheight 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 drivingin 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 harddriving or in hot weather.
Check the condition and charge level of thestart 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.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Engine oil
For the recommended service intervals and war-ranties to be applied, an approved engine oilmust be used.
Volvo recommends:
If the engine oil is not checked regularly and thelevel becomes low, this could cause seriousengine damage.
CAUTION
To satisfy the requirements for the engine'sservice 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 toapply, 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 prescribedgrade and viscosity could cause damage toengine-related components. Volvo Car Corpo-ration disclaims warranty liability for such typeof damage.
Volvo recommends entrusting oil changes toan authorized Volvo workshop.
Volvo uses different systems to warn if the oillevel 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 displaymessages 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 tothe 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.

Checking and filling engine oil
The engine oil level is monitored by an electronicoil level sensor.
Filler pipe13.
It may be necessary to top up engine oil betweenregularly scheduled services.
No action is necessary with regard to engine oillevel until a message appears in the instrumentpanel.
WARNING
If this symbol is shown togetherwith the message Engine oil levelService required, visit a workshop– an authorized Volvo workshop isrecommended. The oil level may be too high.
CAUTION
If this symbol is shown togetherwith a message about low oil level,for example Engine oil level lowRefill 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 asthis could cause a fire.
Viewing oil level in the center display
The oil level can be viewed using the electronicoil 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 inthe center display.
2.Tap Status to display the oil level.
Oil level graphic in the center display.
NOTE
The system cannot directly detect changeswhen 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.
13Engines with an electronic oil level sensor do not have a dipstick.
