The brake fluid should always be between the
MIN and MAX marks on the inside of the res-
ervoir. Check, without removing the cap, that
there is sufficient fluid in the reservoir.
Fluid type: DOT 4+ boiling point >536 °F
(280 °C), P/N 9437433
Replace: The fluid should be replaced accord-
ing to the intervals specified in the Warranty
and Service Records Information booklet.
When driving under extremely hard conditions
(mountain driving, etc), it may be necessary to
replace the fluid more often. Consult a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician.
Always entrust brake fluid changing to a
trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
WARNING
If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the
reservoir or if a brake-related message is
shown in the information display:
DO NOT
DRIVE. Have the car towed to a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician and have
the brake system inspected.
Filling1. Turn and open the cover.
2. Unscrew the reservoir cap and fill the fluid.
The level must be between the MIN and
MAX marks. Power steering fluid
Check the level frequently. The fluid does not
require changing. The fluid level must be
between the MIN and MAX marks. For capaci-
ties and recommended fluid grade, see
page 285.
WARNING
If a problem should occur in the power
steering system or if the vehicle has no elec-
trical current and must be towed, it is still
possible to steer the vehicle. However, keep
in mind that greater effort will be required to
turn the steering wheel.
CAUTION
Keep the area around the power steering
fluid reservoir clean when checking. G031921

06 Maintenance and specificationsWiper blades and washer fluid 06
240 Wiper blades
The windshield wiper blades are different
lengths. The blade on the driver’s side is longer
than the one on the passenger side.
Service positionThe wiper blades must be in the service (verti-
cal) position for replacement or washing.
1.
Switch off the ignition (ignition mode 0, see
page 79) and keep the remote key in the
ignition slot 1
.
2. Move the right steering wheel lever up and
hold it for at least 1 second. The wipers will
then move to the vertical position on the
windshield. The wipers will return to the normal position
when the vehicle is started.
Replacing the windshield wiper blades
With the wipers in the service position, fold
out the wiper arm from the windshield.
Press the button on the wiper blade attach-
ment and pull the wiper blade straight out,
parallel with the wiper arm.
Slide in the new wiper blade until it clicks
into place.
Check that the blade is securely in place.
CleaningKeeping the windshield and wiper blades clean
helps improve visibility and prolongs the serv-
ice life of the wiper blades. Clean the wiper
blades with a stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm
soap solution or car washing detergent.

Accessing the tire sealing systemThe tire sealing system is stowed under the
floor of the cargo area. To access it:
1.
Fold up or remove any protective floor cov-
ering or carpet.
2. Open the floor hatch.
3. Remove the retaining screws.
4. Lift out the foam plastic block holding the jack and lug wrench.
5. Lift out the tire sealing system.
NOTE \b
The tire sealing system is only intended
to seal holes on the tire’s tread area, not
the sidewall.
\b Tires with large holes or tears cannot be
repaired with the tire sealing system.
WARNING \b
After using the tire sealing system, the
vehicle should not be driven farther than
approximately 120 miles (200 km).
\b Have the tire inspected by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician as
soon as possible to determine if it can
be permanently repaired or must be
replaced.
\b The vehicle should not be driven faster
than 50 mph (80 km/h) while using a tire
that has been temporarily repaired with
the tire sealing system.
\b After using the tire sealing system, drive
carefully and avoid abrupt steering
maneuvers and sudden stops. Tire sealing system–overview

WARNING Please keep the following points in mind
when using the tire sealing system:
\b
The sealing compound bottle (no. 8 in
the illustration) contains 1.2-Ethanol
and natural rubber-latex. These sub-
stances are harmful if swallowed.
\b The contents of this bottle may cause
allergic skin reactions or otherwise be
potentially harmful to the skin, the cen-
tral nervous system, and the eyes.
Precautions:
\b Keep out of reach of children.
\b Do not ingest the contents.
\b Avoid prolonged or repeated contact
with the skin.
\b Hands should be washed thoroughly
after handling.
First aid:
\b Skin: Wash affected areas of skin with
soap and water. Get medical attention
if symptoms occur.
\b Eyes: Flush with plenty of water for least
15 minutes, occasionally lifting the
upper and lower eyelids. Get medical
attention if symptoms occur. \b
Inhalation: Move the person to fresh air.
If irritation persists, get medical atten-
tion. Tire sealing system–temporarily
repairing a flat tire
Temporarily repairing a flat tire is done in two
stages:\b
Stage 1: The hole is sealed by pumping
sealing compound into the tire. The car is
then driven a short distance to distribute
the sealing compound in the tire.
NOTE Do not remove any foreign objects (nails,
etc.) from the tire before using the sealing
system.
\b
Stage 2: The tire’s inflation pressure is
checked and adjusted if necessary.
WARNING \b
Never leave the tire sealing system
unattended when it is operating.
\b Keep the tire sealing system away from
children.
\b Be sure the vehicle is parked safely off
the road and away from moving traffic.
\b Apply the parking brake.
Stage 1: Sealing the hole1. Open the cover on the tire sealing kit.
2. Peel off the speed limit sticker and affix it
to the steering wheel hub where it will be
clearly visible to the driver. G01433

CAUTION The compressor should not be used for
more than 10 minutes at a time to avoid
overheating.
WARNING
If the pressure remains below 22 psi
(1.8 bar) after approximately seven minutes,
turn off the compressor. In this case, the
hole is too large to be sealed and the vehicle
should not be driven.
11.
Switch off the compressor and disconnect
the electrical wire from the 12-volt

socket.
12. Unscrew the hose from the tire’s inflation valve and reinstall the valve cap.
13. Immediately drive the vehicle for approxi- mately 2 miles (3 km) at a maximum speed
of 50 mph (80 km/h) to distribute the seal-
ing compound in the tire.
NOTE \b
Safely stow the tire sealing system in a
convenient place as it will soon be used
again to check the tire’s inflation pres-
sure.
\b The empty bottle of sealing compound
cannot be removed from the bottle
holder. Consult a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician to have the
bottle removed and properly disposed
of.
WARNING If heavy vibrations, unsteady steering
behavior, or noises should occur while driv-
ing, reduce speed and park the vehicle in a
safe place. Recheck the tire for bumps,
cracks, or other visible damage, and
recheck its inflation pressure. If the pressure
is below 19 psi (1.3 bar), do not continue
driving. Have the vehicle towed to a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician.
Stage 2: Checking inflation pressure1. Connect the tire sealing system as descri-
bed in stage 1.
2. Refer to the inflation pressure tablesfor the
correct inflation pressure. If the tire needs
to be inflated, start the tire sealing system’s compressor. If necessary, release air from
the tire by turning the air release knob
counterclockwise.
CAUTION The compressor should not be used for
more than 10 minutes at a time to avoid
overheating.
WARNING
If you interrupt your trip for more than 1
hour, check the inflation pressure in the
damaged tire again before continuing.
Replacing the sealing compound
container
The sealing compound container must be
replaced if:
\b
the tire sealing system has been used to
repair a tire
\b the container’s expiration date has passed
(see the date on decal).
