Park the car on a level surface, switch off the 
engine and wait 10-15 minutes to allow the 
oil time to run back to the sump. For capaci-
ties, see page 228.

1. Wipe the dipstick clean.

2. Check the level using the dipstick. It 

must be between the MIN and MAX 
marks.

3. If the level is close to the MIN mark, 

start by topping up with 0.5 litres of oil. 
Top up until the level is nearer to MAX 
than MIN on the dipstick. 

1. Wipe the dipstick clean.

2. Check the oil level using the dipstick. 

3. If the level is close to the MIN mark, 

start by topping up with 0.5 litres of oil. 
Top up until the level is nearer to MAX 
than MIN on the dipstick.

When topping up the coolant, follow the 
instructions on the packaging. To optimise 
refrigerant and corrosion protection ensure 
that the mixture of coolant is always 50% 
water and 50% coolant. Never top up with 
water only. The risk of freezing increases with 
both too little and too much coolant concen-
trate. For capacities, see page 229.

Check the coolant regularly
The level must lie between the MIN and MAX 
marks on the expansion tank. If the system is 
not filled sufficiently, high temperatures 
could occur, causing a risk of damage to the 
engine.

Never fill above the MAX mark. Oil con-
sumption may increase if too much oil is 
poured into the engine.

Do not spill oil onto the hot exhaust mani-
fold due to the risk of fire.

Always use coolant with anti-corrosion 
agent as recommended by Volvo. New cars 
are filled with coolant that can withstand 
temperatures down to approximately –
35 °C.

Coolant can be very hot. If the coolant 
requires topping up when the engine is at 
operating temperature, unscrew the expan-
sion tank cap slowly to gently release the 
overpressure.
