CAUTION: · Do not refuel with the engine running *. Turn the ignition off or to position I. If the ignition is on, an incorrect reading could occur in the fuel gauge. · After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it clicks into place *. · Allow for fuel expansion by not overfilling the tank. Overfilling could also cause damage to the emission control systems. · Avoid spilling gasoline during refueling. In addition to causing damage to the environment, gasolines containing alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. · Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol). This practice can result in vehicle performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the fuel system. Such damage may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. * If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Check Engine Light (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps. pg. 69 Starting the engine Starting the engine 1. Fasten the seat belt. WARNING! Before starting, check that the seat, steering wheel and mirrors are adjusted properly. Make sure the brake pedal can be depressed completely. Adjust the seat if necessary. See page 48. 2.

Release the key as soon as the engine starts. If the engine fails to start, repeat this step. For cold starts at altitudes above 6000 ft (1800 meters), depress the accelerator pedal halfway and turn the key to the starting position. Release the pedal slowly when the engine starts. 4. To release the gear selector from the (P)ark position, the engine must be running (or the ignition key must be in position II) and the brake pedal must be depressed. 5. Select the desired gear. The gear engages after a very slight delay which is especially noticeable when selecting R. NOTE: · Your car is equipped with a KEYLOCK system. When the engine is switched off, the gear selector must be in the ( P)ark position before the key can be removed from the ignition switch. · When starting in cold weather, the transmission may shift up at slightly higher engine speeds than normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating temperature. CAUTION: · The engine should be idling when you move the gear selector. Never accelerate until after you feel the transmission engage! Accelerating immediately after selecting a gear will cause harsh gear engagement and premature transmission
