Battery maintenance
The battery in your car is located under the floor
of the trunk.
Driving habits and conditions, climate, the
number of starts, etc. all affect the service life
and function of the battery. In order for your
battery to perform satisfactorily, keep the
following in mind:
PROPOSITION 65 WARNING! |
|
* More frequently in warm climates.
** The level indicator inside the battery could be designed in various ways. See illustration.


Replacing the battery
Version A
Version B
Ventilation hose: The battery generates
hydrogen gas, which is flammable and
explosive. The battery is fitted with a ventilation hose which vents hydrogen gas out of
the battery compartment through a ventilation opening in the bottom of this
compartment. If the battery must be
replaced, it is essential that the ventilation
hose is properly connected to the battery and
that it is routed through the ventilation
opening provided (see illustration). |
NOTE: After the battery has been disconnected or replaced, lock and unlock the car with the central locking system's remote control to reactivate such features as the power windows, moonroof, courtesy lighting, etc.

Replacing fuses
If an electrical component fails to function, it is
possible that a fuse has blown.
Fuses are located in four different places:
1. Relays/fuse box in the engine compartment
2. Fuse box in the passenger compartment,
behind plastic cover
3. Fuse box in the passenger compartment, on
the edge of the dashboard
4. Fuse box in the cargo area
A label on the inside of each cover indicates the amperage and the electrical components that are connected to each fuse.
The easiest way to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult to remove, you will find a special fuse removal tool in the passenger compartment fuse box. From the side, examine the curved metal wire (see next page) to see if it is broken. If so, put in a new fuse of the same color and amperage (written on the fuse). Spare fuses are stored in the fuse box in the passenger compartment. If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical system inspected by an authorized Volvo retailer.
