WARNING
Keep yourself clear of all moving or hot
engine parts. A hot engine can cause se-
rious burns.
Check oil level in the engine with the dip-
stick. The oil level should be between the
minimum and maximum marks on the dip-
stick. Do not overfill!
See the Operator’s Manual, Maintenance
and Engine for correct types of oil used in
Volvo engines.
CAUTION
If the vehicle is equipped with an aero-
dynamic bumper, do not step on or press
in between the bumper and the wheel.
Breakage or damage may result.

To add oil to a D12 engine, remove oil cap
on the valve cover and fill through the hole.
There is also a right-side oil fill.
CAUTION
Make sure the oil added is the same
type of oil that is in the engine. The
wrong type of oil could accelerate wear
on engine if not suited for application.
