2001 VOLVO Cross Country
Park the car on a level surface and wait for at least 5 minutes after the engine has been switched off. Be
sure the oil level is maintained between the upper and lower marks on the dipstick. Low oil level can
damage the engine. Overfilling can result in high oil consumption and damage the emissions system.
The distance between the dipstick marks represents approx. 1.6 US qt (1.5 liter). The oil should
preferably be checked when cold, before the engine has been started.
NOTE: The engine must be stopped when checking the oil. Do not fill to the max when the engine is
hot
WARNING!
Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into contact with hot exhaust pipe
surfaces.
