Owner maintenance

Periodic maintenance requirements and intervals are described in your vehicle's Warranty and Service Records Information booklet.
The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenance services.
Each time the vehicle is refueled
• Check the engine oil level
• Clean the windshield, windshield wipers,
headlights, and tail lights
Monthly
• Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect
the tires for wear.
• Check that engine coolant and other fluid
levels are between the
indicated "min" and "max" markings.
• Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass
cleaner and soft paper towels.
• Wipe driver information displays with a soft
cloth.
• Visually inspect battery terminals for corrosion.
Corrosion may indicate a loose terminal connector, or a battery near the end of its useful service life. Consult a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for additional information.
As needed
• Wash the vehicle, including the undercarriage,
to reduce wear that can be caused
by a buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can
be caused by salt residues.
• Clean leaves and twigs from air intake
vents at the base of the windshield, and
from other places where they may collect.
• Complete service information for qualified
technicians is available online for purchase
or subscription at www.volvotechinfo.com.
