Volvo S60 Cross Country (2018 year). Manual - part 21

Never touch the glass part of the bulbs with
your fingers. Grease from your fingers is
vaporised by the heat, coating the reflector
and then causing damage.

If an error message remains after the broken
bulb has been replaced then we recommend
visiting an authorised Volvo workshop.

Lamp replacement - headlamps (p. 361)

Outside lighting such as headlamps and rear
lamps may temporarily have condensation on
the inside of the lens. This is normal, all exte-
rior lighting is designed to withstand this.
Condensation is normally vented out of the
lamp housing when the lamp has been
switched on for a time.

Wiper blades

The windscreen wiper blades must be in service
position when they are to be replaced.

Service position

Wiper blades in service position.

In order to change, clean or lift the wiper blades
(for scraping off ice from the windscreen, for
example) they must be in service position.

Before placing the wiper blades in the service
position, make sure that they are not frozen
down.

1. Insert the remote control key in the ignition

switch

and briefly press the START/STOP

ENGINE button to set the car's electrical
system to key position I. For detailed infor-
mation on key positions, see Key positions -
functions at different levels (p. 77).

2. Briefly press the START/STOP ENGINE

button again to set the car’s electrical system
in key position 0.

3. Within 3 seconds, move the right stalk switch

up and hold it in position for
approx. 1 second.
> The wipers then move to standing straight

up.

The wipers return to their starting position when
you briefly press the START/STOP ENGINE
button to set the car’s electrical system to key
position I (or when the car is started).

If the wiper arms in service position have
been folded up from the windscreen, they
must be folded back down onto the wind-
screen before the wipers are activated. This is
to avoid scraping the paint on the bonnet.

Replacing the wiper blades

Not required in cars with keyless start and lock system.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

}}

369

Fold up the wiper arm when it is in service
position. Press the button located on the
wiper blade mounting and pull straight out
parallel with the wiper arm.

Slide in the new wiper blade until a "click" is
heard.

Check that the blade is firmly installed.

4. Fold the wiper arm back towards the wind-

screen.

The wipers return from service position to their
starting position when you briefly press the
START/STOP ENGINE button to set the car’s
electrical system to key position I (or when the
car is started).

The wiper blades are different lengths. The
blade on the driver's side is longer than on
the passenger side.

Cleaning

For cleaning wiper blades and windscreen, see
Car wash (p. 391).

Washer fluid - filling (p. 369)

Check the blades regularly. Neglected main-
tenance shortens the service life of the wiper
blades.

Washer fluid - filling

Washer fluid is used for cleaning the headlamps
and windows. Washer fluid with antifreeze must
be used when the temperature is below freezing
point.

Topping up the washer fluid takes place by open-
ing the blue cap.

The windscreen and headlamp washers share a
common reservoir.

When there is approx. 1 litre of washer fluid
remaining in the reservoir, a message to top
up the washer fluid will be shown in the com-
bined instrument panel, together with the
symbol

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

370

Prescribed grade: Washer fluid recommended
by Volvo - with frost protection during cold
weather and below freezing point.

Use Volvo genuine washer fluid or equivalent
with a recommended pH of between 6 and 8,
in working dilution (e.g. 1:1 with neutral
water).

Wipers and washers (p. 97)

Use washer fluid with antifreeze when the
temperature is below freezing to avoid freez-
ing in the pump, reservoir and hoses.

Volume:

•

Cars with headlamp washing: 5.4 litres.

•

Cars without headlamp washing: 4.0 litres.

Starter battery - general

The starter battery is used to drive the starter
motor and other electrical equipment in the car.

The starter battery is a traditional 12 V battery.

The service life and function of the starter battery
is influenced by factors such as the number of
starts, discharging, driving style, driving condi-
tions, climatic conditions, etc.

•

Never disconnect the battery when the
engine is running.

•

Check that the cables to the battery are cor-
rectly connected and properly tightened.

When replacing the starter battery in cars
with the Start/Stop function, a battery of
EFB

type must be fitted.

When replacing the support battery, a battery
of AGM

type must be fitted.

If the starter battery is replaced, make sure
you replace it with a battery with the same
cold starting capacity and type as the original
battery (see the label on the battery).

The starter battery's container size should be
consistent with the original battery's dimen-
sions.

Enhanced Flooded Battery.

Absorbed Glass Mat.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

371

WARNING

•

The battery can generate oxyhydrogen
gas, which is highly explosive. A spark can
be formed if a jump lead is connected
incorrectly, and this can be enough for
the battery to explode.

•

Do not connect the jump leads to any
fuel system component or any moving
part. Be careful of hot engine parts.

•

The battery contains sulphuric acid, which
can cause serious burns.

•

If sulphuric acid comes into contact with
eyes, skin or clothing, flush with large
quantities of water. If acid splashes into
the eyes - seek medical attention imme-
diately.

•

Never smoke near the battery.

When charging the starter battery or the sup-
port battery (p. 374), only use a modern bat-
tery charger with controlled charging voltage.
Fast charging function must not be used
since it may damage the battery.

If the following instruction is not observed
then the energy saving function for infotain-
ment system may be temporarily disengaged,
and/or the message in the combined instru-
ment panel's information display about the
starter battery's state of charge may be tem-
porarily inapplicable, following the connection
of an external starter battery or battery
charger:

•

The negative battery terminal on the car's
starter battery must never be used for
connecting an external starter battery or
battery charger - only the car chassis
may be used as the grounding point.

See Jump starting with another battery
(p. 275) for a description of how the cable
clamps must be attached.

Battery - symbols (p. 372)

The life of the battery is shortened if it
becomes discharged repeatedly.

The life of the battery is affected by several
factors, including driving conditions and cli-
mate. Battery starting capacity decreases
gradually with time and therefore needs to be
recharged if the car is not used for a longer
time or when it is only driven short distances.
Extreme cold further limits starting capacity.

To maintain the battery in good condition, at
least 15 minutes of driving/week is recom-
mended or that the battery is connected to a
battery charger with automatic trickle charg-
ing.

A battery that is kept fully charged has a
maximum service life.

The starter battery in the car can be replaced
without the help of a workshop.

Removal

First of all: Take the remote control key from the
ignition switch and wait at least 5 minutes before
any electrical connections are touched - this is

Battery - Start/Stop

Cars with the Start/Stop function are equipped
with a support battery in addition to the starter
battery.

Cars with the Start/Stop function are equipped
with two 12 V batteries - one extra powerful bat-
tery for starting and one support battery that
helps during the Start/Stop function's starting
sequence.
