Page 12: Introduction
The vehicle is equipped with software that registers different types of information about the vehicle. The information will be transferred to Volvo Trucks AB and used in product development and fault tracing in engines and vehicles. Information that is saved concerns, among other things, speed, fuel consumption and torque.

Driving 127 Driving hints Drive economically The driver is the most important link in the chain for obtaining the best total economy. Warm up the engine as quickly as possible. A warm engine and transmission use less fuel than if they are cold (and also wear less). Use the accelerator sensibly and change gears correctly.
Page 139 Always tension the canopy and tarpaulins tightly. Also remember that advertising signs, roof racks etc. give higher fuel consumption. Volvo's spoiler package gives lower fuel consumption if it is correctly adjusted. Correct maintenance keeps the truck in good trim, which keeps fuel consumption down.

Exhaust cleaning 299 Cleaning the AdBlue tank It can be necessary to clean out the AdBluetank if it is advertently filled with diesel or some liquid other than AdBlue. Rinse out with water, and if this is not sufficient, use a domestic cleaning liquid. Rinse out thoroughly with water to ensure that there is no cleaning liquid residue left as this can damage the catalytic converter.
Page 311 300 Exhaust cleaning is called active regeneration and consists of heating the filter so that the particles are burnt. The particulate filter also removes inorganic contaminants (ash) which comes from engine oil additives. Ash cannot be burnt, so regular service of the particulate filter is necessary.
Page 312 Exhaust cleaning 301 Regeneration takes about 15–20 minutes and the Caution! exhaust silencer is very hot during this time. During certain driving situations, e.g. if the speed is low and Avoid driving or stopping the the exhaust temperature is high, the temperature of the truck at an unsuitable place when silencer can be extremely high.

The following information about oils and greases is important. Your Volvo dealer has more information on the complete range of Volvo lubricants. Oils For components that are lubricated with oil, the grade, viscosity and service interval are very important.
Page 535 A synthetic oil is not necessarily better than a mineral oil. This is however a common misunderstanding and extended oil replacement intervals are therefore assumed. The service interval recommended by Volvo apply irrespective of whether the oil is mineral-based or synthetic.

The information can be found on the grease container and/or on the grease's product information sheet. In some cases, using grease with a particular Volvo part number is recommended. If this grease is used, the correct type is automatically obtained.

Page 652: Back-Up Function
If something happens 641 Back-up function Even if a fault should occur within the electrical braking pressure control, it is still possible to brake the vehicle. A built-in back-up function guarantees brake operation via partial or complete pneumatically controlled operation. The brake pedal travel will in this case, be somewhat greater than normal and higher brake pedal pressure may be required to achieve the same stopping power.
