Checking the oil level in a new car is espe-
cially important before the first scheduled oil
change. The Service and Warranty Booklet
specifies the odometer readings for oil
changes.
Volvo recommends checking the oil level
every 2500 km. The most accurate measure-
ments are made on a cold engine before
starting. The measurement will be inaccurate
if taken immediately after the engine is
switched off. The dipstick will indicate that
the level is too low because the oil has not
had time to flow down into the oil sump.
Checking the oil
The oil level must be within the area marked on
the dipstick.
Checking the oil in a cold engine:
– Wipe the dipstick clean before checking
the level.
– Check the oil level using the dipstick. The
oil level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks.
If the level is close to the MIN mark, start by
topping up with 0.5 litres of oil. Top up until
the oil level is nearer the MAX than the MIN
mark on the dipstick. See page 254–255 for
capacities.
Checking the oil in a warm engine:
– 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.
– Wipe the dipstick clean before checking
the level.
– Check the oil level using the dipstick. The
oil level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks.
If the level is close to the MIN mark, start by
topping up with 0.5 litres of oil. Top up until
the oil level is nearer the MAX than the MIN
mark on the dipstick. See page 254–255 for
capacities.
WARNING
Do not spill oil onto the hot exhaust mani-
fold due to the risk of fire.
IMPORTANT
Never fill above the MAX mark. Oil con-
sumption may increase if too much oil is
poured into the engine.
