2022 Volvo S60 Refuelling

Handling of fuel

Do not use fuel with a lower quality than that recommended by Volvo, as this will negatively affect engine power and fuel consumption.

Warning

Always avoid inhaling fuel vapour and getting fuel splashes in the eyes.
In the event of fuel in the eyes, remove any contact lenses and rinse the eyes in plenty of water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
Never swallow fuel. Fuels such as petrol, bioethanol and mixtures of them and diesel are highly toxic and could cause permanent injury or be fatal if swallowed. Seek medical attention immediately if fuel has been swallowed.

Warning

Fuel which spills onto the ground can be ignited.
Switch off the fuel-driven heater before starting to refuel.
Never carry an activated mobile phone when refuelling. The ring signal could cause spark build-up and ignite petrol fumes, leading to fire and injury.

Fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions

Fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions can be negatively impacted by a number of factors.
Examples of causes of increased fuel consumption include:

If the car is equipped with extra equipment that affects its weight.
Driving style.
If the customer chooses wheels other than those mounted as standard on the basic version of the model, this could increase rolling resistance.
High speed causes increased air resistance.
Fuel quality, road and traffic conditions, weather and the condition of the car.
A combination of the examples above could increase consumption considerably.

Note
Extreme weather conditions, driving with a trailer or driving at high altitudes, in combination with poorer fuel quality than recommended, are factors that considerably increase the car’s fuel consumption.

Petrol station

Use the car’s navigation system in order to find the route to the closest petrol station.
When stopping to refuel it is a good idea to make a general inspection of the car as well, such as checking tyre pressure, bulbs, wiper blades, topping up washer fluid, etc.

Fuel tank – volume

The fuel tank’s filling capacity can be read in the table below.

	All engines
Litres (approx)	60
US gallons (approx)	15,9

Opening and closing the fuel filler flap

The car must be unlocked for the fuel filler flap to be opened.

In the driver display, the arrow next to the tank symbol indicates which side of the car the fuel filler flap is located on.
Open the fuel filler flap with a gentle press on the rear of the flap.
After refuelling is finished – close the flap with a gentle press.
