I or II. The symbol in the
combined instrument panel and the lampin the button go out.
Washing the headlamps and windows
Washing function.
Washing the windscreenMove the stalk switch toward the steering wheel to start the windscreen and headlampwashers. The windscreen wipers will make several more sweeps and the headlamps are washedonce the stalk switch has been released.
Heated washer nozzles*The washer nozzles are heated automaticallyin cold weather to prevent the washer fluidfreezing solid.
High-pressure headlamp washing*High-pressure headlamp washing consumesa large quantity of washer fluid. To save fluid,the headlamps are washed automatically atevery fifth windscreen wash cycle.
Reduced washingIf only approx. 1 litre of washer fluid remainsin the reservoir and the message that youshould fill the washer fluid is shown in thecombined instrument panel, then the supplyof washer fluid to the headlamps is switchedoff. This is in order to prioritise cleaning thewindscreen and the visibility through it.

Before a long journey
Before a long journey, it makes good sense to go through the following points: •Check that the engine is working normally and that fuel consumption (p. 403) is nor-mal.
• Make sure that there are no leaks (fuel, oilor other fluid).
• Check all bulbs and tyre tread depths.
• Carrying a warning triangle (p. 329) is alegal requirement in certain countries.

Winter driving
For winter driving it is important to perform certain checks in order to ensure that the carcan be driven safely. Check the following in particular before the cold season:
• The engine coolant (p. 349) must contain at least 50% glycol. This mixture protectsthe engine against frost erosion down toapproximately –35 °C. To achieve opti-mum antifreeze protection, different typesof glycol must not be mixed.
• The fuel tank must be kept filled to pre-vent condensation.
• Engine oil viscosity is important. Oils withlower viscosity (thinner oils) facilitate star-ting in cold weather and also reduce fuelconsumption while the engine is cold. Formore information on suitable oils, seeEngine oil - adverse driving conditions (p.395).
IMPORTANT
Low viscosity oil must not be used for hard driving or in hot weather.
•The condition of the starter battery and charge level must be inspected. Coldweather places great demands on the starter battery and its capacity is reducedby the cold.
• Use washer fluid (p. 361) to avoid iceforming in the washer fluid reservoir.
To achieve optimum roadholding Volvo rec- ommends using winter tyres on all wheels ifthere is a risk of snow or ice.
NOTE
The use of winter tyres is a legal require- ment in certain countries. Studded tyresare not permitted in all countries.
Slippery driving conditionsPractise driving on slippery surfaces under controlled conditions to learn how the carreacts.

Some oils and fluids should be checked at regular intervals.
Regular checkingCheck the following oils and fluids at regularintervals, e.g. when refuelling:
• Coolant
• Engine oil
• Power steering fluid (not cars with 4-cyl. 2.0 litre engine 4
)
• Washer fluid
WARNING
Remember that the radiator fan (located at the front of the engine compartment,behind the radiator) may start automati-cally some after the engine has beenswitched off. Always have the engine cleaned by a workshop. There is a risk of fire if theengine is hot.

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
