Volvo recommends Castrol oil products

The oil level must be between the MIN and MAX marks on the dipstick

Checking the oil

1. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a lintfree rag.

2. Reinsert the dipstick, pull it out, and check the oil level. The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks.

3. Add oil if necessary. If the level is close to the MIN mark, add approximately 0.5 US quarts (0.5 liters) of oil.

4. Recheck the level and add more oil if necessary until the level is near the MAX mark.
