Oil specifications
Engine oil must meet the minimum
ACEA A5/B5. Lower quality oils may not offer
the same fuel economy, engine performance,
or engine protection.
Oil additives must not be used.
Oil viscosityIncorrect viscosity oil can shorten engine life
under normal use. SAE 5W-30 will provide
good fuel economy and engine protection. See
the viscosity chart.
Viscosity chart
Extreme engine operationSAE 0W-30 oil meeting ACEA A5/B5 require-
ments is recommended for driving in areas with
sustained low temperatures.
NOTE
Volvo uses different systems to indicate a
low oil level or pressure. Some models have
an oil pressure sensor, in which case a
warning symbol (see page 60) is used to
indicate low oil pressure. Other models have
an oil level sensor, in which case the driver
is alerted by the warning symbol in the cen-
ter of the instrument panel and a text in the
information display. Some models use both
systems. Contact a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician for more informa-
tion.
Changing engine oil and oil filter
See page 293 for oil volumes. Refer to the
Warranty and Service Records Information

vals.
NOTE
Volvo does not recommend the use of oil
additives.

•If the engine is warm, wait for at least
10-15 minutes after the engine has been
switched off before checking the oil.
