ENGINE DAMAGE PREVENTION
Before Starting the Engine
Before working on a vehicle, set the parking brakes, place the transmission
in neutral and chock the wheels. Failure to do so can result in unexpected
vehicle movement and can cause serious personal injury or death.
Inspect engine for potential hazards. Make sure all protective guards and
covers are properly installed if an engine needs to be started to make
adjustments or checks. To help prevent an accident by moving parts, work
carefully around them.
DO NOT disable or bypass automatic alarm/shutoff circuits. They are
provided to prevent personal injury and engine damage.
Only properly trained and authorized Volvo Service Technicians may attempt
repairs on this vehicle.
