MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Start battery
The vehicle has a single-pole electrical system that uses the chassis and engine mount as con-ductors. The start battery is used to start the electrical system and power the starter motor and otherelectrical equipment in the vehicle. The start battery should only be replaced by a workshop 18
.
The vehicle has a voltage-regulated alternating current generator. The starter battery is a 12 V battery, designed for the carbon dioxide reducing functions Start/Stopand regenerative charging, and to support thefunctionality of the car's different systems. The service life and performance of the start bat- tery are affected by factors such as driving style,driving conditions, climate, battery discharges,number of starts, etc.
• Never disconnect the start battery while theengine is running.
• Make sure the cables to the start battery arecorrectly connected and the clamps aresecurely tightened.
WARNING
•Batteries generate hydrogen gas, which is flammable and explosive.
• Do not connect the jumper cable to anypart of the fuel system or to any movingparts. Avoid touching hot manifolds.
• Battery fluid contains sulfuric acid. Do notallow battery fluid to contact eyes, skin,fabrics or painted surfaces.
• If contact occurs, flush the affected areaimmediately with water. Obtain medicalhelp immediately if eyes are affected.
• Never expose the battery to open flameor electric spark. Do not smoke near thebattery. Failure to follow the instructionsfor jump starting can lead to injury.
Connection points
WARNING
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING Battery posts, terminals, and related accesso- ries contain lead and lead compounds, chemi-cals known to the state of California to causecancer and reproductive harm. Wash handsafter handling. Use the vehicle's connection points in the engine compartment to connect an external start batteryor battery charger. The battery terminals on the car's starter battery in the luggage/cargo area must
not be used.
If the start battery is being charged, the support battery will also be charged.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

CAUTION
Only a modern battery charger with controlled charge voltage should be used to charge thestarter battery and support battery. The rapidcharging function should not be used as thiscould damage the battery.
CAUTION
Failure to observe the following could cause the infotainment energy save mode to tempo-rarily stop working and/or a message in thedriver's display regarding the state of chargeof the starter battery may be temporarilyincorrect after an external starter battery orbattery charger has been connected:
• The negative battery terminal of the vehi- cle's starter battery must
never be used
to connect an external starter battery orbattery charger – only the vehicle's neg-
ative charging point should be used as
a grounding point.
NOTE
If the starter battery becomes discharged too many times, it will shorten its service life. The service life of the starter battery is affec- ted by several factors, such as driving condi-tions and climate. The starting capacity of thebattery reduces gradually over time. The bat-tery must therefore be recharged if the vehi-cle is not used or a long period of time or if itis only driven short distances. Severe cold fur-ther limits the starting capacity. To keep the starter battery in a good condi- tion, the vehicle should be driven at least15 minutes per week or the battery should beconnected to a battery charger with automatictrickle charging. A starter battery that is always kept fully charged has the maximum service life.
Location
The start battery is located in the cargo compartment.
WARNING
If the starter battery is disconnected, the func- tion for automatic opening and closing mustbe reset to function correctly. A reset isrequired in order for the pinch protection towork.

Support battery In addition to the start battery, vehicles equipped with the Start/Stop function also have a supportbattery.
Vehicles with the Start/Stop function are equip- ped with two 12-volt batteries ‒ a heavy-duty
start battery and a support battery that provides extra current during the Start/Stop function'sstart sequence.
The support battery is located in a box next to the spring strut in the engine compartment.
NOTE
• The higher the current consumption in the vehicle, the more the alternator has towork and the batteries have to becharged = increased fuel consumption.
• When the starter battery capacity hasdropped below the lowest permissiblelevel, the Start/Stop function is disen-gaged.
When the Start/Stop function is temporarily reduced due to high current consumption:
• The engine will auto-start, even if the driverdoes not lift their foot from the brake pedal.
The support battery does not normally requiremore service than the start battery. If you have any questions or concerns, consult a workshop ‒
an authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
CAUTION
If the following is not observed, the Start/ Stop function may temporarily stop workingafter connection of an external starter batteryor battery charger: • The negative battery terminal of the vehi- cle's starter battery must
never be used
to connect an external starter battery orbattery charger – only the vehicle's neg-
ative charging point should be used as
a grounding point.

NOTE
If the starter battery is discharged to the extent that the vehicle does not have normalelectrical functions and the engine must thenbe jump-started with an external battery or abattery charger, the Start/Stop function mayremain activated. If the Start/Stop functionshortly thereafter auto-stops the engine, thereis a huge risk that auto-start of the engine willfail due to insufficient battery capacity sincethe battery had not had time to recharge. If the vehicle has been jump-started or if there has not been enough time for the bat-tery to be charged with a battery charger, it isadvisable to temporarily deactivate theStart/Stop function until the battery has beenrecharged by the vehicle. At an ambient tem-perature of about +15°C (about 60°F), thebattery must be charged by the vehicle for atleast one hour. At lower ambient tempera-tures, the charging time can increase to3-4 hours. It is advisable to charge the batterywith an external battery charger.
