Emergency puncture repair - operation
Emergency puncture repair, where the emer- gency puncture repair kit (TMK - TemporaryMobility Kit) is used to seal a puncture andcheck and adjust the tyre pressure (p. 407).
Emergency puncture repair
For information on the function of the parts, see Emergency puncture repair kit - overview (p.334).1. Detach the label for maximum permitted
speed (which is fitted on one side of the compressor) and affix it to the steeringwheel.
WARNING
You should not drive faster than 80 km/h after the emergency tyre repair kit hasbeen used. Volvo recommends that youvisit an authorised Volvo workshop forinspection of the sealed tyre (maximumdriving distance is 200 km). The staff therecan determine whether or not the tyre canbe repaired or if it needs to be replaced.
WARNING
The sealing fluid can irritate the skin. In the case of contact with skin, wash away thefluid with soap and water.
2. Check that the switch is in position 0 and
locate the cable and the air hose.
NOTE
Do not break the bottle's seal before use. The seal is broken automatically when thebottle is screwed in.
3. Unscrew the orange cap and unscrew the bottle's stopper. 4. Screw the bottle into its holder.

Engine oil - general
An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service intervals canbe applied.
Volvo recommends:
When driving under adverse conditions, see Engine oil - adverse driving conditions (p.395).
IMPORTANT
In order to fulfil the requirements for the engine's service intervals all engines arefilled with a specially adapted syntheticengine oil at the factory. The choice of oilhas been made very carefully with regardto service life, starting characteristics, fuelconsumption and environmental impact. An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service inter-vals can be applied. Only use a prescribedgrade of oil for both filling and oil change,otherwise you will risk affecting service life,starting characteristics, fuel consumptionand environmental impact. Volvo Car Corporation disclaims all war- ranty liability if engine oil of the prescribedgrade and viscosity is not used. Volvo recommends that oil changes are carried out at an authorised Volvo work-shop.
Volvo uses different systems for warning of low/high oil level or low/high oil pressure.Certain engine variants have an oil pressuresensor, and then the combined instrumentpanel's warning symbol for low oil pressure isused. Other variants have an oil level sensor,when the driver is informed via the instru- ment's warning symbol
and display

texts. Certain variants have both systems. Contact a Volvo dealer for more information. Change the engine oil and oil filter in accord- ance with the intervals specified in the Serv-ice and Warranty Booklet. Using oil of a higher than specified grade is permitted. If the car is driven in adverse con-ditions, Volvo recommends using an oil of ahigher grade; see Engine oil - adverse drivingconditions (p. 395). For filling capacities, see Engine oil - grade and volume (p. 396).

Engine oil - checking and filling
The oil level is checked on certain engine vari- ants with the electronic oil level sensor, onother engine variants with the oil dipstick.

Dipstick and filler pipe. Checking the oil level in a new car is espe- cially important before the first scheduled oilchange. Volvo recommends checking the oil level every 2 500 km. The most accurate measure-ments are made on a cold engine before star-ting. The measurement will be inaccurate iftaken immediately after the engine isswitched off. The dipstick will indicate thatthe level is too low because the oil has nothad time to flow down into the oil sump.
G021737
The oil level must be between the
MIN and MAX
marks.
Measurement and filling if required1. Ensure that the car is level. After switch-
ing off the engine it is important to wait 5 minutes to allow the oil time to run backto the sump.
2. Pull up and wipe the dipstick.
3. Re-insert the dipstick.
4. Pull it out and check the level.
5. If the level is close to MIN then 0.5 litres
should be added. If the level is signifi- cantly below, then an additional amountis required.
6. If required, check the level again, do it after driving a short distance. Then repeatsteps 1-4.
5Does not apply to the 4-cyl. 2.0 litre or 5-cyl. diesel, which have electronic oil level sensor. However, does apply to the B4204T7 engine.

Coolant - level
The coolant cools the internal combustion engine to the correct operating temperature.The heat that is transferred from the engine tothe coolant can be used to heat the passen-ger compartment. The coolant level must lie between the
MIN
and MAX marks on the expansion tank.
Checking the level and topping up
When topping up the coolant, follow the instructions on the packaging. It is importantthat the mixture of coolant concentrate andwater is correct for the prevailing weatherconditions. Never top up with water only. Therisk of freezing increases with both too littleand too much coolant concentrate.

WARNING
Coolant can be very hot. If the coolant requires topping up when the engine is atoperating temperature, unscrew theexpansion tank cap slowly to gentlyrelease the overpressure.
For capacities and for standards regarding water quality; see Coolant - grade and vol-ume (p. 398).
Check the coolant regularlyThe level must lie between the MIN and MAX
marks on the expansion tank. If the system isnot filled sufficiently, high temperatures couldoccur, causing a risk of damage to theengine.
IMPORTANT
• A high content of chlorine, chlorides and other salts may cause corrosion inthe cooling system.
• Always use coolant with anti-corrosionagent as recommended by Volvo.
• Ensure that the coolant mixture is 50%water and 50% coolant.
• Mix the coolant with approved qualitytap water. In the event of any doubtabout water quality, used ready-mixedcoolant in accordance with Volvo rec-ommendations.
• When changing coolant/replacingcooling system components, flush thecooling system clean with approvedquality tap water or flush with ready-mixed coolant.
• The engine must only be run with awell-filled cooling system. Otherwise,temperatures that are too high mayoccur resulting in the risk of damage(cracks) in the cylinder head.
Brake and clutch fluid - level
Brake and clutch fluid level should be between the reservoir
MIN and MAX marks.
Checking the levelBrake and clutch fluid have a common reser-voir. The level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks that are visible inside the reser-
voir. Check the level regularly. Change the brake fluid every other year or at every other regular service. For capacities and recommended brake fluid grade, see Brake fluid - grade and volume (p.401). The fluid should be changed annually oncars driven in conditions requiring hard, fre-quent braking, such as driving in mountainsor tropical climates with high humidity.
WARNING
If the brake fluid is under the MIN level in
the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive fur- ther before topping up the brake fluid.Volvo recommends that the reason for theloss of brake fluid is investigated by anauthorised Volvo workshop.
