SERVICE AND MAINTENANCEthe latest up-to-date technical information, special 
tools, and advanced training for their technicians. 
This support is an important advantage to you, 
the Volvo owner, as systems become more 
sophisticated and intricate.
Servicing your Volvo should be done at your 
convenience. Therefore, plan to make your 
appointments ahead of time so that your retailer 
can schedule the right personnel and equipment 
to be available for the work your Volvo requires.
Should you have any questions concerning 
service, parts, or warranty coverage, your Volvo 
retailer will be happy to answer them for you. 
Should you require additional information, they can 
further assist you by contacting Volvo’s Regional 
personnel for clarification.
Remember – you should always exercise your right 
to:
• Receive an estimate of costs before any repair 
work is performed;
• Receive prior notification of any additional 
repairs;
• Receive a copy of the repair order, including 
those for warranty repairs;
• Review repairs completed under warranty.
ServicingItems you should check at regular 
maintenance intervals and periodically when 
refueling:
• Engine oil level
• Coolant level
• Washer fluid
• Tire inflation pressure
• Brake and clutch system fluid levels
• Exterior lights (headlights, turn-signals, etc.)
Fuel requirementsConsult your Owner’s Manual for fuel 
requirements.Octane RatingTOP TIER Detergent Gasoline
Volvo endorses the use of “TOP TIER Detergent 
Gasoline” where available to help maintain engine 
performance and reliability. TOP TIER Detergent 
Gasoline meets a new standard jointly established 
by leading automotive manufactures to meet the 
needs of today’s advanced engines. Qualifying 
gasoline retailers (stations) will, in most cases, 
identify their gasoline as having met the “TOP 
TIER Detergent Gasoline” standards.
NOTE
Information about TOP TIER Detergent 
Gasoline is available at www.toptiergas.com.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE
Some U.S. and Canadian gasolines contain 
an octane enhancing additive called 
methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl 
(MMT). If such fuels are used, your Emission 
Control System performance may be affected, 
and the Check Engine Light (malfunction 
indicator lamp) located on your instrument 
panel may light. If this occurs, please return 
your vehicle to an authorized Volvo retailer for 
service.Gasoline containing alcohol and ethers
(oxygenated fuels)Some fuel suppliers sell gasoline containing 
“oxygenates” which are usually alcohols or ethers. 
In some areas, state or local laws require that the 
service pump be marked indicating use of alcohols 
or ethers. However, there are areas in which the 
pumps are unmarked. If you are not sure whether 
there is alcohol or ethers in the gasoline you buy, 
check with the service station operator. To meet 
seasonal air quality standards, some areas require 
the use of “oxygenated” fuel.
Methanol
Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl 
alcohol, wood alcohol). This practice can result in 
vehicle performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the fuel system. Such damage may 
not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited 
Warranty.
Volvo allows the use of the following “oxygenated” 
fuels; however, the octane ratings listed in your 
owner’s manual must still be met.
Alcohol – Ethanol
Fuels containing up to 10% ethanol by volume 
may be used. Ethanol may also be referred to as 
Ethyl alcohol, or “Gasohol.”
Ethers – MTBE
Fuels containing up to 15% MTBE may be used.
Engine oilThis vehicle comes from the factory with synthetic 
oil.Oil specificationsFull synthetic engine oil meeting the minimum 
ACEA A5/B5 must be used. Lower quality oils 
may not offer the same fuel economy, engine 
performance, or engine protection.
Volvo recommends:Oil additives must not be used.

WARRANTYfor diagnostic and repair expenses. If the failure 
is caused by a combination of warrantable and 
nonwarrantable conditions, the owner shall not 
be liable for the portion of diagnostic and repair 
costs relating to the warrantable condition. 
If the failure is caused by a nonwarrantable 
condition, the vehicle owner shall be liable for 
all diagnostic and repair expenses, but not to 
exceed the maximum permissible under the 
inspection program. The owner may choose 
to have the vehicle repaired at a facility other 
than a Volvo retailer; however, if a warrantable 
condition is found, the owner must bring the 
vehicle to an authorized Volvo retailer to have 
the repairs completed at no cost for parts, 
labor, and diagnosis. Volvo will not reimburse 
the owner for diagnostic costs incurred at the 
unauthorized service facility except in the case of 
an emergency.Hybrid models The following provisions apply to vehicles 
which fail to pass the California, Connecticut, 
Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Maryland, 
New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, 
Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington Smog 
Inspection. Should your vehicle fail a smog check 
test during the warranty period, you may choose 
to have the vehicle repaired at any authorized 
Volvo retailer. The authorized Volvo retailer will 
make the necessary repairs within the three (3) 
year/50,000-mile period so that the vehicle will 
pass the inspection. After three (3) years/50,000 
miles, but before a period of use of seven (7) 
years/70,000 miles, the authorized Volvo dealer will repair or replace only those parts listed in the 
article “2019 Model Year Emission Parts List” in 
this booklet. After seven (7) years/70,000 miles, 
but before a period of use of eight (8) years/ 
80,000 miles, the authorized Volvo retailer will 
cover only the catalytic converter, engine control 
module, central electronic module and onboard 
diagnostic device. TZEV vehicles identified in the 
article “Volvo’s 2019 New Vehicle Warranties & 
Complimentary Factory Scheduled Maintenance 
Program” in this booklet have all emissions 
components covered for a period of fifteen (15) 
years or 150,000 miles. Volvo will pay for the 
repair unless the failure was caused by abuse, 
neglect, improper maintenance, or the use of 
leaded fuel or fuels not recommended in your 
Owner’s Manual or this booklet. If the failure is 
covered under this warranty, Volvo shall be liable 
for diagnostic and repair expenses. If the failure 
is caused by a combination of warrantable and 
nonwarrantable conditions, the owner shall not 
be liable for the portion of diagnostic and repair 
costs relating to the warrantable condition.

condition, the vehicle owner shall be liable for 
all diagnostic and repair expenses, but not to 
exceed the maximum permissible under the

an emergency.
What Is Not Warranted (applies to all 
models)1.  Required maintenance services as specified 
in the article “Maintenance Service 
Operations” in this booklet. Items that affect 
emissions and require scheduled replacement 
are warranted up to their first replacement 
point [such as spark plugs, filters, belts, etc.]. 
Once these parts have been replaced at the 
scheduled replacement point, they are no 
longer covered by this Emission Warranty.
2.  Malfunctions in any part caused by misuse, 
improper adjustments (by other than a 
Volvo dealer during warranty repair work), 
modification, alteration, tampering or 
disconnection of system parts.
3.  Damage resulting from accidents, acts of 
nature, or events beyond the control of Volvo.
4.  The use of fuel and/or oil, or other fluids 
which do not meet the Volvo-approved 
standards as set forth in the Owner’s Manual 
or in the articles “Fuel requirements” and 
“Engine oil” in this booklet, may not be 
warranted.
