Filling washer fluid
Washer fluid is used for cleaning the head-
lamps as well as the windscreen and rear
window. Washer fluid with antifreeze must
be used when the temperature is under the
freezing point.
Washer fluid is filled into the reservoir with the
blue cap. The reservoir is used for windscreen
washer, rear window washer and headlamp
washers*
NOTE
When approx. 1 litre (1 qt) of washer fluid
remains in the reservoir, the message
Washer fluid Level low, refill is shown in
the driver display, together with the
symbol.
Prescribed grade: Washer fluid recom-
mended by Volvo – with frost protection dur-
ing cold weather and for temperatures below
freezing point.
IMPORTANT
Use Volvo genuine washer fluid or equiva-
lent with a recommended pH of between 6
and 8, in working dilution (e.g. 1:1 with
neutral water).
IMPORTANT
Use washer fluid with antifreeze when the
temperature is below freezing to avoid the
fluid freezing inside the pump, reservoir
and hoses.
