The lamp will light up when the Winter/Wet starting mode is engaged or if gears "4,3" or "L" are selected.
If the warning lamp begins to flash, this means that there is a fault in the automatic gearbox. Contact Your Volvo
retailer.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
If the light comes on (or stays on after the
vehicle has started), the SRS diagnostic system has detected a fault. Drive to an authorized Volvo retailer for an
inspection of the system. See the SRS section for more information.
Service reminder indicator
This light will come on at 7,500 mile (12,000 km) intervals, after 750 hours of driving or after 12 months, whichever
occurs first. It is a reminder to the driver that the service interval has been exceeded. The light will stay on for 2
minutes after start until reset by the servicing retailer.
Bulb failure warning light
The light will come on if any of the following bulbs are defective:
· one of the low beam headlights
· one of the tail lights
· one of the brake lights when the brake pedal is depressed.
Check the fuse and bulb. See sections "Replacing bulbs" and "fuses.
Should the warning light come on after a defective outside bulb has been replaced, the corresponding bulb on the other
side of the car should also be replaced.
