Before the cold season arrives:
- Check the condition and charge level of the battery. Cold weather places greater demands on the battery and reduces its capacity.
- Use washer fluid containing antifreeze to help prevent ice from forming in the washer fluid reservoir.
Slippery driving conditions
Volvo recommends deactivating One Pedal Drive to help stabilize the vehicle when driving on slippery or icy roads.
To help optimize traction and roadholding, Volvo recommends using snow tires on all wheels whenever there is a risk of snow or ice on the road.
Note
Certain countries require use of winter tires by law. Not all countries permit the use of studded tires.
Practice driving on slippery surfaces under controlled conditions to learn how the vehicle reacts.
