MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Hoisting the vehicle
When hoisting the vehicle, it is important that
the jack is positioned on the designated
points under the vehicle.
For vehicles with Leveling Control*: If the
vehicle is equipped with pneumatic suspen-
sion, this feature must be turned off before the
vehicle is lifted onto a tow truck.
Volvo recommends only using the jack
intended for your specific vehicle model. If
a jack other than that recommended by
Volvo is used, follow the instructions
included with the equipment.
The vehicle's ordinary jack is only intended
to be used in temporary situations for short
periods of time, such as when changing
wheels in the event of a flat tire. If the vehi-
cle needs to be lifted more frequently, or
for a longer period of time than for a wheel
change, a garage jack or hoist is recom-
mended. Always follow the instructions for
use provided with the equipment.
WARNING
If the vehicle is lifted on a garage jack, the
jack must be placed under one of the four
lifting points. Make sure that the vehicle is
correctly positioned on the jack and that it
cannot slide off. Make sure the jack plate
has a rubber pad to help keep the vehicle
stable and prevent damage. Always use
axle stands or similar.

Engine oil
For the recommended service intervals and
warranties to be applied, an approved engine
oil must be used.
To satisfy the requirements for the engine's
service intervals, all engines are factory-
filled with a specially adapted synthetic
engine oil. Great care has been put into the
choice of oil, with consideration given to
service life, startability, fuel consumption
and environmental impact.
For the recommended service intervals to
apply, an approved engine oil must be
used. Only use the prescribed oil grade to
top off or change the oil. Otherwise, there
is a risk of the vehicle's service life, starta-
bility, fuel consumption and environmental
impact being affected.
Volvo recommends:
Failure to use engine oil of the prescribed
grade and viscosity could cause damage to
engine-related components. Volvo Car Cor-
poration disclaims warranty liability for
such type of damage.
Volvo recommends entrusting oil changes
to an authorized Volvo workshop.
Volvo uses different systems to warn if the oil
level is too low/high or the oil pressure is low.
