The oil level should be checked at regular intervals, particularly during the period up to the first scheduled maintenance service.

• See page 339 for oil specifications.
• Refer to the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for information on the oil change intervals.

CAUTION

• Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine damage if the oil level becomes too low.
• Oil that is lower than the specified quality can damage the engine.
• Volvo does not recommend the use of oil additives.
• Always add oil of the same type and viscosity as already used.
• Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This could cause an increase in oil consumption.
• Oil changes should be carried out by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
