The fluid should be replaced once a year or every 15,000 miles (24,000 km) when driving under extremely hard conditions (mountain driving, etc.). Always entrust brake fluid changing to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. Fluid type: Volvo synthetic power steering fluid (Pentosin CHF 11S) P/N 1161529 or equivalent. Replace: No fluid change required. If a problem should occur in the power steering system or if the vehicle has no electrical current and must be towed, it is still possible to steer the vehicle. However, keep in mind that greater effort will be required to turn the steering wheel. • • Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is warm. Wait until the vehicle cools. If it is necessary to top up the coolant when the engine is warm, unscrew the expansion tank cap slowly so that the overpressure dissipates. Brake fluid reservoir Power steering fluid reservoir FULL ADD G000000 The brake fluid should always be above the MIN mark on the side of the reservoir. Check, without removing the cap, that there is sufficient fluid in the reservoir. The fluid level should always be between the ADD and FULL marks. 212 G026991
