fuel cap VOLVO XC70 2006 Owner´s Manual

General information
Important
Before you operate your car for the first time, please familiarize
yourself with the new-engine oil consumption information on page
160. You should also be familiar with the information in chapters
one, two and four of this manual.
Information contained in the balance of the manual is extremely
useful and should be read after operating the vehicle for the first
time.
The manual is structured so that it can be used for reference. For
this reason, it should be kept in the car for ready access.
Do not export your Volvo to another country before investigating
that country’s applicable safety and exhaust emission requirements.
In some cases it may be difficult or impossible to comply with these
requirements. Modifications to the emission control system(s) may
render your Volvo not certifiable for legal operation in the U.S.,
Canada and other countries.
All information, illustrations and specifications contained in this
manual are based on the latest product information available at the
time of publication. Please note that some vehicles may be equipped
differently, depending on special legal requirements and that
optional equipment described in this manual may not be available in
all markets.
Volvo reserves the right to make model changes at any time, or to
change specifications or design, without notice and without
incurring obligation.
CALIFORNIA Proposition 65 Warning
WARNING! Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and certain
vehicle components contain or emit chemicals known to the state of
California to cause cancer, and birth defects or other reproductive
harm. In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and certain
products of component wear contain or emit chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer, and birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
Shiftlock
When your car is parked, the gear selector is locked in the (P)ark
position. To release the selector from this position, turn the ignition key
to position II (or start the engine), depress the brake pedal, press the
button on the front of the gear selector knob and move the selector from
(P)ark.
Keylock
This means that when you switch off the ignition, the gear selector must
be in the (P)ark position before the key can be removed from the
ignition switch.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
The ABS system in your car performs a self-diagnostic test when the
vehicle first reaches the speed of approximately 12 mph (20 km/h). The
brake pedal will pulsate several times and a sound may be audible from
the ABS control module. This is normal.
Fuel filler door
Press the button on the light switch panel (see page 35) when the car is at
a standstill to unlock the fuel filler door. Please note that the fuel filler
door will remain unlocked until the car begins to move forward.
An audible click will be heard when the fuel filler door relocks.
Fuel filler cap
After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it
clicks into place. If this cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is
running when the car is refueled, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp
(“Check Engine” light) may indicate a fault.
WARNING! If your vehicle is involved in an accident, unseen damage
may affect your vehicle's driveability and safety.

CAUTION:
•Do not refuel with the engine
running*. Turn the ignition off or to
position I. If the ignition is on, an
incorrect reading could occur in the
fuel gauge.
•After refueling, close the fuel filler cap
by turning it clockwise until it clicks
into place *.
•Allow for fuel expansion by not
overfilling the tank. Overfilling could
also cause damage to the emission
control systems.
•Avoid spilling gasoline when refueling.
In addition to causing damage to the
environment, gasolines containing
alcohol can cause damage to painted
surfaces, which may not be covered
under the New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
•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.
