played in the instrument panel.
WARNING
If this symbol and Engine oil level
Service required are displayed,
have the vehicle checked by a
trained and qualified Volvo service
technician. The oil level may be too high.
Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into con-
tact with hot exhaust pipe surfaces.
CAUTION
If this symbol and Engine oil level
low Add "....." (an amount of oil) are

Checking the oil level
The oil level can be checked in

The oil level should be checked at regular inter-
vals, particularly during the period up to the first
scheduled maintenance service.
If the oil level sensor indicates that the level is
too low, using the correct oil, top up with the
amount of oil indicated as soon as possible.
NOTE
•
The system cannot detect changes in the
oil level immediately. The vehicle must be
driven approximately 20 miles (30 km) or
have been parked on level ground with
the engine off for 5 minutes before the
oil level reading will be correct.
•
If the necessary conditions are not met
for checking the oil level electronically
(time interval after the engine was
switched off, if the vehicle is parked on
an incline, etc.),
No value available will
be displayed. This does not indicate a
problem with the oil level sensor.
