Engine oil For the recommended service intervals and warranties to be applied, an approved engineoil must be used.
Volvo recommends:
If the engine oil is not checked regularly and the level becomes low, this could cause seri-ous engine damage.
CAUTION
To satisfy the requirements for the engine's service intervals, all engines are factory-filled with a specially adapted syntheticengine oil. Great care has been put into thechoice of oil, with consideration given toservice life, startability, fuel consumptionand environmental impact. For the recommended service intervals to apply, an approved engine oil must beused. Only use the prescribed oil grade totop off or change the oil. Otherwise, thereis a risk of the vehicle's service life, starta-bility, fuel consumption and environmentalimpact being affected. Failure to use engine oil of the prescribed grade and viscosity could cause damage toengine-related components. Volvo Car Cor-poration disclaims warranty liability forsuch type of damage. Volvo recommends entrusting oil changes to an authorized Volvo workshop.
Volvo uses different systems to warn if the oil level is too low/high or the oil pressure is low.On engine variants with an oil pressure sensor,

Support battery Vehicles with the Start/Stop function are equipped with two batteries – a more power-ful 12 V start battery and a support batterythat provides stronger current during thefunction's start sequence.
The 12 V support battery is located in a box next to the spring strut in the engine compartment.
NOTE
The higher the current consumption in the vehicle, the more the alternator hasto work and the batteries have to becharged = increased fuel consumption.
When the starter battery capacity hasdropped below the lowest permissiblelevel, the Start/Stop function is disen-gaged.
When the Start/Stop function is temporarily reduced due to high current consumption: The engine will auto-start, even if the driver does not lift their foot from thebrake pedal.
The support battery does not normally requiremore service than the start battery. If you haveany questions or concerns, consult a work-shop ‒ an authorized Volvo workshop is rec-
ommended.
CAUTION
If the following is not observed, the Start/ Stop function may temporarily stop work-ing after connection of an external starterbattery or battery charger:
The negative battery terminal of thevehicle's starter battery must
never be
used to connect an external starterbattery or battery charger – only thevehicle's negative charging pointshould be used as a grounding point.
NOTE
If the starter battery has been discharged to the extent that the vehicle does not havenormal electrical functions and the enginemust then be jump-started with an externalbattery or a battery charger, the Start/Stopfunction may remain activated. If the Start/Stop function shortly thereafter auto-stopsthe engine, there is a huge risk that auto-start of the engine will fail due to insuffi-cient battery capacity since the battery hadnot had time to recharge. If the vehicle has been jump-started or if there has not been enough time for thebattery to be charged with a batterycharger, the Start/Stop function should betemporarily deactivated until the batteryhas been recharged by the vehicle. At anambient temperature of about +15°C(about 60°F), the battery must be chargedby the vehicle for at least one hour. Atlower ambient temperatures, the chargingtime can increase to 3-4 hours. It is advisa-ble to charge the battery with an externalbattery charger.
