It may be necessary to top up engine oil between regularly scheduled services.
No action is necessary until a message is displayed in the instrument panel.
Warning
If this symbol and Engine oil level Service required are displayed, have the vehicle checked by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. The oil level may be too high.
Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into contact with hot exhaust pipe surfaces.
Important
If this symbol and Engine oil level low Add "....." (an amount of oil) are displayed, add the amount of oil indicated.
Checking the oil level
The oil level can be checked in the center display when the engine is not running.
From the center display's Home view, swipe the screen from right to left to open App view. Tap Car status and then tap Status to show the oil level.
The oil level should be checked at regular intervals, particularly during the period up to the first scheduled maintenance service.
If the oil level sensor indicates that the level is too low, using the correct oil, top up with the amount of oil indicated as soon as possible.
Note
- The system cannot detect changes in the oil level immediately. The vehicle must be driven approximately 20 miles (30 km) or have been parked on level ground with the engine off for 5 minutes before the oil level reading will be correct.
- If the necessary conditions are not met for checking the oil level electronically (time interval after the engine was switched off, if the vehicle is parked on an incline, etc.), No values available will be displayed. This does not indicate a problem with the oil level sensor.
