Mediation/Arbitration Program (for 
Canada only)If you feel that the efforts by Volvo and the 
retailer to resolve a factory-related vehicle service 
concern have been unsatisfactory, Volvo Car 
Canada Limited participates in an impartial third 
party mediation/ arbitration program administered 
by the Canadian Motor Vehicle Arbitration Plan 
(CAMVAP).
The CAMVAP program is a straightforward 
alternative to resolve a disagreement when all 
other efforts to produce a settlement have failed. 
This procedure is without cost to you and is 
designed to eliminate the need for lengthy and 
expensive legal proceedings.
In the CAMVAP program, impartial third-
party arbitrators conduct hearings at mutually 
convenient times and places in an informal 
environment. These impartial arbitrators review 
the positions of the parties, make decisions and, 
where appropriate, render awards to resolve 
disputes. CAMVAP decisions are fast, fair and 
final as the arbitrator’s award is binding on both 
you and Volvo Car Canada Limited. The CAMVAP 
services are available in all Canadian territories 
and provinces. For more information, without 
charge or obligation, call your CAMVAP provincial 
administrator directly at 1-800-207-0685, or visit 
their website at  
www.camvap.ca.
2019 Service and Maintenance  
RequirementsCustomer Preparation ServiceYour Volvo has received a comprehensive 
Customer Preparation Service. Your retail 
facility has performed a Customer Preparation 
Service which includes a complete inspection 
and servicing of your vehicle. The Customer 
Preparation Service (CPS) is a key part of a 
comprehensive maintenance schedule developed 
by Volvo for your vehicle.Oil and Filter Change IntervalThe correct oil and filter interval is every 10,000 
miles = 16,000 km or 12 months WHICHEVER 
COMES FIRST. For service intervals beyond 
150,000 miles/240,000 kilometers, please 
consult your authorized Volvo retailer.Cabin Air Filter All Models• Replacement every 20,000 miles (32,000 km)
• Replace at least once a year or more often in 
heavy traffic and dirty/dusty areas.Maintenance SchedulingMaintenance intervals have usually been 
determined by accumulated mileage. As 
driving conditions and operational demands 
differ, these factors have a major influence on 
routine maintenance. For these reasons Volvo 
recommends that your maintenance schedule 
services and oil filter changes be based on a combination of time and 
mileage.
The Text Window in the instrument panel will 
display a message when vehicle maintenance is 
required.
1st display when maintenance interval is near: 
“Book time for maintenance”
2nd display when maintenance is required: “Time 
for regular maintenance”
3rd display when maintenance is overdue: 
“Maintenance overdue”
The MINIMUM SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE, 
for which you are responsible, begins at 10,000 
miles = 16,000 km or every 12 months whichever 
comes first.
Volvo recommends that you bring your vehicle 
in for service at least once a year regardless of 
mileage. For service intervals beyond 150,000 
miles/240,000 kilometers, consult your authorized 
Volvo retailer.
A maintenance Service Operations Chart details 
these service requirements. They are listed by 
engine type with required emission related service 
indicated. See the article “Maintenance Service 
Operations” in this booklet.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCEthe latest up-to-date technical information, special 
tools, and advanced training for their technicians. 
This support is an important advantage to you, 
the Volvo owner, as systems become more 
sophisticated and intricate.
Servicing your Volvo should be done at your 
convenience. Therefore, plan to make your 
appointments ahead of time so that your retailer 
can schedule the right personnel and equipment 
to be available for the work your Volvo requires.
Should you have any questions concerning 
service, parts, or warranty coverage, your Volvo 
retailer will be happy to answer them for you. 
Should you require additional information, they can 
further assist you by contacting Volvo’s Regional 
personnel for clarification.
Remember – you should always exercise your right 
to:
• Receive an estimate of costs before any repair 
work is performed;
• Receive prior notification of any additional 
repairs;
• Receive a copy of the repair order, including 
those for warranty repairs;
• Review repairs completed under warranty.
ServicingItems you should check at regular 
maintenance intervals and periodically when 
refueling:
• Engine oil level
• Coolant level
• Washer fluid
• Tire inflation pressure
• Brake and clutch system fluid levels
• Exterior lights (headlights, turn-signals, etc.)
Fuel requirementsConsult your Owner’s Manual for fuel 
requirements.Octane RatingTOP TIER Detergent Gasoline
Volvo endorses the use of “TOP TIER Detergent 
Gasoline” where available to help maintain engine 
performance and reliability. TOP TIER Detergent 
Gasoline meets a new standard jointly established 
by leading automotive manufactures to meet the 
needs of today’s advanced engines. Qualifying 
gasoline retailers (stations) will, in most cases, 
identify their gasoline as having met the “TOP 
TIER Detergent Gasoline” standards.
NOTE
Information about TOP TIER Detergent 
Gasoline is available at www.toptiergas.com.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 
Demanding driving
In demanding driving conditions, such as operating 
the vehicle in hot weather, towing a trailer, or 
driving for extended periods at higher altitudes 
than normal, it may be advisable to switch to 
higher octane fuel (91 or higher) or to change 
gasoline brands to fully utilize your engine’s 
capacity, and for the smoothest possible operation.
NOTE
When switching to higher octane fuel or 
changing gasoline brands, it may be necessary 
to fill the tank more than once before a 
difference in engine operation is noticeable.Fuel FormulationsDo not use gasoline that contains lead as a knock 
inhibitor, and do not use lead additives. Besides 
damaging the exhaust emission control systems 
on your vehicle, lead has been strongly linked to 
certain forms of cancer.
Many fuels contain benzene as a solvent. 
Unburned benzene has been strongly linked to 
certain forms of cancer. If you live in an area where 
you must fill your own gas tank, take precautions. 
These may include:• standing upwind away from the filler nozzle 
while refueling
• refueling only at gas stations with vapor 
recovery systems that fully seal the mouth of 
the filler neck during refueling
• wearing neoprene gloves while handling a fuel 
filler nozzle.
Use of AdditivesWith the exception of gas line antifreeze during 
winter months, do not add solvents, thickeners, 
or other store-bought additives to your vehicle’s 
fuel, cooling, or lubricating systems. Overuse may 
damage your engine, and some of these additives 
contain organically volatile chemicals. Do not 
needlessly expose yourself to these chemicals.
WARNING
Never carry a cell phone that is switched 
on while refueling your vehicle. If the phone 
rings, this may cause a spark that could ignite 
gasoline fumes, resulting in fire and injury.
WARNING
Carbon monoxide is a poisonous, colorless, and 
odorless gas. It is present in all exhaust gases. 
If you ever smell exhaust fumes inside the 
vehicle, make sure the passenger compartment 
is ventilated, and immediately return the 
vehicle to a trained and qualified Volvo service 
technician for correction.
Deposit control gasoline (detergent 
additives)Volvo recommends the use of detergent gasoline 
to control engine deposits. Detergent gasoline 
is effective in keeping injectors and intake valves 
clean. Consistent use of deposit control gasolines 
will help ensure good drivability and fuel economy. 
If you are not sure whether the gasoline contains 
deposit control additives, check with the service 
station operator.
NOTE
Volvo does not recommend the use of external 
fuel injector cleaning systems.Unleaded fuelEach Volvo has a three-way catalytic converter 
and must use only unleaded gasoline. U.S. and 
Canadian regulations require that pumps delivering 
unleaded gasoline be labeled “UNLEADED”. Only 
these pumps have nozzles which fit your vehicle’s 
filler inlet. It is unlawful to dispense leaded fuel 
into a vehicle labeled “unleaded gasoline only”. 
Leaded gasoline damages the threeway catalytic 
converter and the heated oxygen sensor system. 
Repeated use of leaded gasoline will lessen the 
effectiveness of the emission control system and 
could result in loss of emission warranty coverage. 
State and local vehicle inspection programs will 
make detection of misfueling easier, possibly 
resulting in emission test failure for misfueled 
vehicles.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE
Some U.S. and Canadian gasolines contain 
an octane enhancing additive called 
methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl 
(MMT). If such fuels are used, your Emission 
Control System performance may be affected, 
and the Check Engine Light (malfunction 
indicator lamp) located on your instrument 
panel may light. If this occurs, please return 
your vehicle to an authorized Volvo retailer for 
service.Gasoline containing alcohol and ethers
(oxygenated fuels)Some fuel suppliers sell gasoline containing 
“oxygenates” which are usually alcohols or ethers. 
In some areas, state or local laws require that the 
service pump be marked indicating use of alcohols 
or ethers. However, there are areas in which the 
pumps are unmarked. If you are not sure whether 
there is alcohol or ethers in the gasoline you buy, 
check with the service station operator. To meet 
seasonal air quality standards, some areas require 
the use of “oxygenated” fuel.
Methanol
Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl 
alcohol, wood alcohol). This practice can result in 
vehicle performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the fuel system. Such damage may 
not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited 
Warranty.
Volvo allows the use of the following “oxygenated” 
fuels; however, the octane ratings listed in your 
owner’s manual must still be met.
Alcohol – Ethanol
Fuels containing up to 10% ethanol by volume 
may be used. Ethanol may also be referred to as 
Ethyl alcohol, or “Gasohol.”
Ethers – MTBE
Fuels containing up to 15% MTBE may be used.
Engine oilThis vehicle comes from the factory with synthetic 
oil.Oil specificationsFull synthetic engine oil meeting the minimum 
ACEA A5/B5 must be used. Lower quality oils 
may not offer the same fuel economy, engine 
performance, or engine protection.
Volvo recommends:Oil additives must not be used.

SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
Oil viscosity
Incorrect viscosity oil can shorten engine life under 
normal use. SAE 5W-30 will provide good fuel 
economy and engine protection. See the viscosity 
chart.Viscosity chartExtreme engine operation
Volvo oil VCC RBS0-2AE/SAE 0W20 is 
recommended for extreme driving conditions.
Turbocharger Operating TipsIn order to maximize the efficiency and operation 
of your vehicle, the following points should be 
observed:
1.  Oil change and filter replacement every 
10,000 miles/16,000 km, or at a time interval 
based on the type of driving and conditions as 
detailed in your Owner’s Manual. You should 
maintain a record of these services (repair 
order receipts).
2.  Do not use engine oil additives as they 
may adversely affect the engine.
CAUTION
Never race the engine immediately after 
starting. Oil flow may not reach some 
lubricating points fast enough to prevent 
turbocharger damage.
Before switching off the engine, let it operate 
at idle for a short time to allow the spinning of 
the turbocharger compressor’s turbine vanes to 
slow. After hard driving, this idle time should last 
a couple of minutes, during which the vanes will 
slow and the compressor will cool down while 
still receiving oil lubrication. If the turbine vanes 
are spinning at high speeds when the engine is 
switched off, there is a great risk of heat damage 
and/or turbine seizure due to lack of lubrication.Do not race the engine just prior to switching 
off!
