The washer fluid reservoir cap is located under the hood. Be sure to use high-quality washer fluid.
The vehicle notifies you when the washer fluid level is getting low.[1]

Important
Washer fluid quality
- Use washer fluid with a pH between 6 and 8.
- If you use concentrated washer fluid, dilute it as instructed on the packaging and use clean pH-neutral water.
- Volvo recommends washer fluid with antifreeze in cold conditions, especially in temperatures below freezing. This is to prevent damage caused by the fluid freezing inside the pump, reservoir and hoses.
- Open your vehicle's hood.

Locate the blue cap with the washer fluid symbol and open it.
- Pour the washer fluid into the reservoir. Avoid spillage if possible.
- Close the cap and hood.
