Filling washer fluid
Washer fluid is used for cleaning the head-
lamps and windscreen. Washer fluid with
antifreeze must be used when the tempera-
ture is under the freezing point.
Washer fluid is filled into the reservoir with the
blue cap. The reservoir is used for both wind-
screen washer and headlamp washers*
NOTE
When approx. 1 litre (1 qt) of washer fluid
remains in the reservoir, the message
Washer fluid Level low, refill is shown in
the driver display, together with the
symbol.
Prescribed grade: Washer fluid recom-
mended by Volvo – with frost protection dur-
ing cold weather and for temperatures below
freezing point.
IMPORTANT
Use Volvo genuine washer fluid or equiva-
lent with a recommended pH of between 6
and 8, in working dilution (e.g. 1:1 with
neutral water).
IMPORTANT
Use washer fluid with antifreeze when the
temperature is below freezing to avoid the
fluid freezing inside the pump, reservoir
and hoses.
