Deposit control gasoline
Volvo recommends the use of gasoline containing deposit control additives. These additives have shown
to be efficient in keeping injectors and intake valves clean.
Consistent use of deposit control gasolines will ensure good driveability and fuel economy. If you are
not sure whether the gasoline contains deposit control additives, check with the service station operator.
Note:
Do not add additives yourself to the gasoline, unless you are recommended to do so by an authorized
Volvo dealer.
If you change the engine oil and filter yourself, your Volvo dealer can assist you in disposing of the
used oil. Engine oil can be harmful to your skin -- gloves should be worn when performing this work.
PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT
It is illegal to pollute drains, water courses and soil. Use authorized waste collection facilities,
including approved recycling centers and garages providing facilities for disposal of used oil and used
oil filters. If in doubt, contact your local authority for advice on disposal.
