Cold weather precautions
If you wish to check your vehicle before the approach of cold weather, the following advice is worth noting:
● Make sure that the engine coolant contains 50 percent antifreeze. Any other mixture will reduce freeze protection. This
gives protection against freezing down to -31°F (-35°C). See section "Coolant". The use of "recycled" antifreeze is not
approved by Volvo. Different types of antifreeze must not be mixed.
● Volvo recommends using only genuine Volvo antifreeze in your vehicle's radiator. Your Volvo retailer stocks plenty of
Volvo engine coolant to protect your vehicle during cold weather.
● Try to keep the fuel tank well filled - this prevents the formation of condensation in the tank. In addition, in extremely
cold weather conditions it is worthwhile to add fuel line de-icer before refueling.
● The viscosity of the engine oil is important. Oil with low viscosity (thinner oil) improves cold-weather starting as well
1
as decreasing fuel consumption while the engine is warming up. For winter use, 5W-30 oil, particularly the synthetic type ,
is recommended. Be sure to use good quality oil but do not use cold-weather oil for hard driving or in warm weather. See
section "Engine oil" for more information.
● The load placed on the battery is greater during the winter since the windshield wipers, lighting, etc. are used more
often. Moreover, the capacity of the battery decreases as the temperature drops. In very cold weather, a poorly charged
battery can freeze and be damaged. It is therefore advisable to check the state of charge more frequently and spray an
antirust oil on the battery posts.
● Volvo recommends the use of snow tires on all four wheels for winter driving - see section "Wheels and tires."
● To prevent the washer fluid reservoir from freezing, add washer solvents containing antifreeze (see page 188 for the
location of the washer fluid reservoir). This is important since dirt is often splashed on the windshield during winter
driving, requiring the frequent use of the washers and wipers. Volvo Washer Solvent should be diluted as follows:
- Down to 14° F (-10° C): 1 part washer solvent and 4 parts water
- Down to 5° F (-15° C): 1 part washer solvent and 3 parts water
- Down to 0° F (-18° C): 1 part washer solvent and 2 parts water
- Down to -18° F (-28° C): 1 part washer solvent and 1 part water
● Use Volvo Teflon Lock Spray in the locks.
NOTE: Avoid the use of de-icing sprays as they can cause damage to the locks.
