Vehicle Damage Warnings





COOLANT MIXTURE:
- Since aluminum is used in the engines, active corrosion protection is necessary in the coolant to help prevent corrosion damage.
- Use genuine Volvo coolant type C (blue-green) diluted with clean water in proportions of 50/50. This mixture helps to prevent corrosion and frost damage.
- Never top-up the cooling system with water alone. Use genuine Volvo coolant diluted with clean water in proportions of 50/50.
- The coolant should be changed regularly since the corrosion-protective additives in the coolant lose their effectiveness in time.
