DAILY MAINTENANCE
Before working on or inspecting a vehicle, set the
parking brakes, place the transmission in neutral
and block the wheels. Failure to do so can result in
unexpected vehicle movement and can cause
serious personal injury or death.
Engines equipped with automatic start systems can
start automatically. An alarm sounds before automatic
start. Failure to turn off ignition before working on fan
or belts can result in personal injury.
Make sure that all fluid levels are at their proper levels.
If the fluids are not at their proper levels, add as
necessary. Refer to the Operator's Manual Vehicle
Maintenance for information on what types of fluids
are recommended for your Volvo vehicle.
Keep yourself clear of all moving or hot engine
parts. A hot engine can cause serious burns.
While checking the fluid levels, visually inspect hoses, pipes and their
connections for signs of leakage. Inspect the ground under the engine,
transmission and rear axle(s) for signs of leakage.
