SERVICE AND MAINTENANCEThis 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 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 MAINTENANCEof 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.
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
RBS0-2AE/SAE 0W20 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 “2020 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 2020 New Vehicle Warranties”
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. 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.
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.
