oil VOLVO S60 2008 Owner's Guide

Never touch the glass of bulbs with your fingers. Grease and oils from your fingers vaporize in the heat and will leave
a deposit on the reflector, which will damage it.
The optional Active Bi -Xenon® headlight bulbs contain trace amounts of mercury. These bulbs should always be
disposed of by an authorized Volvo retailer.
The following bulbs should only be replaced by an authorized Volvo service technician:
- Active Bi -Xenon® headlights,
- Courtesy (dome) lighting,
- Reading lights,
- Glove compartment lights
- Turn signals and courtesy lights in the side door mirrors
- High-mounted brake lights
- Diodes in the rear tail lights
Replacing bulbs at the front of the vehicle
All front bulbs (except the optional front fog lights) are replaced from the engine compartment.
WARNING
Active Bi -Xenon® headlights (option) - due to the high voltage used by these headlights, these bulbs should only be
replaced by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
Location of the bulbs in the headlight housing
1. Side marker light
2. Turn signal
3. Low beam headlight/parking light (halogen headlights)
4. High beam headlight, parking light (Active Bi -Xenon® headlights)
Certain models may have a plastic tube that may hinder access to the bulbs. This tube can be broken off and discarded.

NOTE
The transmission oil does not normally need to be changed during the service life of the vehicle. However, it may be
necessary to replace the oil if the vehicle is often driven in areas of sustained temperature extremes (hot or cold), when
towing a trailer over long distances, for prolonged driving in mountainous areas, or if the vehicle is often driven short
distances in temperatures under 40°F (5°C).

Engine specifications
Charge air cooler (Intercooler)
Turbocharged engines employ a turbo-compressor to force air into the engine inlet manifold and a charge air cooler to
cool the compressed inlet air. The resulting increase in air flow raises pressure in the intake manifold and increases
engine power over that developed by the normally-aspirated engine. The charge air cooler (which resembles a radiator) is
located between the turbo-compressor and inlet manifold.
Fuel system
The engine is equipped with a multiport fuel injection system.

Three-way catalytic converter
Three-way catalytic converter - general information
Keep your engine properly tuned. Certain engine malfunctions, particularly involving the electrical, fuel or distributor
ignition systems, may cause unusually high three-way catalytic converter temperatures. Do not continue to operate your
vehicle if you detect engine misfire, noticeable loss of power or other unusual operating conditions, such as engine
overheating or backfiring. A properly tuned engine will help avoid malfunctions that could damage the three-way
catalytic converter.
Do not park your vehicle over combustible materials, such as grass or leaves, which can come into contact with the
hot exhaust system and cause such materials to ignite under certain wind and weather conditions.
Excessive starter cranking (in excess of one minute), or an intermittently firing or flooded engine can cause three-way
catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating.
