MAINTENANCE
Maintenance services
Your Volvo has passed several major inspections before being delivered to you, according to Volvo
specifications. After being driven 600-1,200 miles (1,000-2,000 km), your car should be brought to the
Volvo dealer for a service inspection. Engine, transmission and rear axle oils will be changed at this
time. Following this inspection, the maintenance inspections outlined in this book should be performed
every 5,000 miles (8,000 km). The extended maintenance inspection intervals make it even more
advisable to follow this program.
Inspection and service should also be performed any time a malfunction is observed or suspected.
It is recommended that receipts for vehicle emission services be retained in the event that questions arise
concerning maintenance. See your "Maintenance Records Manual".
Maintenance inspection at 5,000 mile (8,000 km) intervals
Volvo advises you to follow the inspection program at 5,000 mile (8,000 km) intervals which is outlined
in the "Maintenance Records Manual". This maintenance program contains inspections and services
necessary for the proper function of your car over the next 5,000 miles (8,000 km).
The maintenance services contain several checks which require special instruments and tools and
therefore must be performed by a qualified technician.
To keep your Volvo in top condition, specify time tested and proven Genuine Volvo Parts and
Accessories.
