6 Introduction
General information
Shiftlock (automatic transmission)
When your car is parked, the gear selector is locked in the Park (P) position. To release the selector from this position, turn the igniti\
on
key to position II (or start the engine), depress the brake pedal, pre\
ss the button on the front side of the gear selector and move the selector
from Park (P).
Keylock (automatic transmission)
When the ignition is switched off, the gear selector must be in the Park\
(P) position before the key can be removed from the ignition
switch.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)
The ABS system in your car performs a self-diagnostic test when the vehi\
cle first reaches the speed of approximately 12 mph (20 km/ h).
The brake pedal will pulsate several times and a sound may be audible fr\
om the ABS control module. This is normal.
Fuel filler door
Press the button on the light switch panel when the car is at a standsti\
ll to open the fuel filler door.
Fuel filler cap
After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until\
it clicks into place. If this cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is
running when the car is refueled, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp ("Chec\
k Engine" light) may indicate a fault.
Points to keep in mind
l Before you operate your vehicle for the first time, please familiarize y\
ourself with the new-engine oil consumption information on page
191. You should also be familiar with the information found in the chapters\
"Instruments and controls," and "Starting and driving."
l Information contained in the balance of the manual is extremely useful a\
nd should be read after operating the vehicle for the first time.
l The manual is structured so that it can be used for reference. For this \
reason, it should be kept in the vehicle for ready access.
l Do not export your Volvo to another country before investigating that co\
untry's applicable safety and emission control requirements. In
some cases it may be difficult or impossible to comply with these requir\
ements. Modifications to the emission control system(s) may
render your Volvo not certifiable for legal operation in the U.S., Canad\
a and other countries.
l All information, illustrations and specifications contained in this manu\
al are based on the latest product information available at the

4. Information display
The display presents information and warning messages, the ambient tempe\
rature, and the clock, etc. When the
ambient temperature is between 23° and 36°F (-5° and +2°C)\
, a snowflake symbol is shown in the display. This
symbol serves as a warning for possible slippery road surfaces. Please n\
ote that this symbol does not indicate a fault
with your car. At low speeds, or when the car is not moving, the tempera\
ture readings may be slightly higher than the
actual ambient temperature.
5. Information symbol
See the next pages for additional information.
6. Turn signal, right
7. Tachometer
The tachometer shows engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute\
(rpm). Do not drive continuously with the
needle in the red area of the dial, which indicates maximum allowable en\
gine rpm range. Instead, shift to a higher
gear or slow the vehicle down. The engine management system will automat\
ically prevent excessively high engines
speeds. This will be noticeable as a pronounced unevenness in engine spe\
ed.

pump's ability to supply the engine with an adequate supply of fuel.
Therefore, it is advisable to refuel as soon as possible when the needle\
nears the red zone, or when the
fuel warning light comes on.
1Models with All Wheel Drive have a tank volume of 15 US gallons (57 lit\
ers). Models with engine code 39 have
a fuel tank capacity of 14 US gallons (53 liters). This code is the 6t\
h and 7th digits from the left in your vehicle's
VIN number. See
page 235 for the location of the VIN plate.
CAUTION
l Do not refuel with the engine running1. Turn the ignition off or to position I. If the ignition is on, an
incorrect reading could occur in the fuel gauge
l After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until\
it clicks into place.
l Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Do not press the handle on the filler n\
ozzle more than one extra time.
Too much fuel in the tank in hot weather conditions can cause the fuel t\
o overflow. Overfilling could
also cause damage to the emission control systems.
l Avoid spilling gasoline during refueling. In addition to causing damage \
to the environment, gasolines
containing alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which may not b\
e covered under the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
l Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol)\
. This practice can result in
vehicle performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the f\
uel system. Such damage may
not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
1If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running\
when the vehicle is refueled, the Check Engine
Light (malfunction indicator lamp) may indicate a fault. However, your\
vehicle's performance will not be affected.
Use only Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps.
