when the temperature is in the range of 23 - 36 °F (-5 - +2 °C).
Please note that this symbol does not indicate a fault with your vehicle. At low speeds or when the vehicle is not
moving, the temperature readings may be slightly higher than the actual ambient temperature.

Warning symbol
in center of the instrument panel
This symbol shines as a red or yellow light depending on the severity of the discovered fault.

Supplemental Restraint System SRS
If this light comes on while the vehicle is being driven, or remains on for longer than approximately 10 seconds after
the vehicle has been started, the SRS system's diagnostic functions have detected a fault in a seat belt lock or
tensioner, a front airbag, side impact airbag, and/or an inflatable curtain. Have the system(s) inspected by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible.

Indicator and warning symbols
BRAKE Brake failure warning light
If the light comes on while driving or braking, stop immediately, open the hood and check the brake fluid level in the
reservoir. See page 173
for reservoir position and page 177 for instructions.
Canadian models are equipped with this warning light.
If the BRAKE and ABS warning lights come on at the same time, this could indicate a fault in the brake system.
- Stop the vehicle in a suitable place and switch off the engine.
- Restart the engine.
- If both warning lights go off, no further action is required.
- If both lights are still on after the engine has been restarted, switch off the engine again and check the brake fluid
level (see page 173
for the location of the brake fluid reservoir).
- If the brake fluid level is above the MIN mark, drive carefully to an authorized Volvo retailer and have the brake
system inspected.
WARNING!
ProCarManuals.com
Page 39 of 200

If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the reservoir or if a "Brake failure - Service urgent" message is displayed
in the text window: DO NOT DRIVE. Have the vehicle towed to an authorized Volvo retailer and have the brake
system inspected.
PARK BRAKE Parking brake applied This light will be on when the parking brake (hand brake) is applied. The
parking brake lever is situated between the front seats. See also page 62
for additional information.
Canadian models are equipped with this symbol.
Oil pressure warning light
If the light comes on while driving, stop the vehicle and then stop the engine immediately and check the engine
oil level. See page 49
. R-models are also equipped with an oil level warning system. If the light stays on after restart,
have the vehicle towed to the nearest authorized Volvo retailer. After hard driving, the light may come on occasionally
when the engine is idling. This is normal, provided it goes off when the engine speed is increased.
Generator warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is running, have the charging system checked.
Rear fog light
This light indicates that the fog light is on.
CHECK ENGINE Malfunction indicator light
On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII): As you drive, a computer called "OBDII" monitors your vehicle's engine,
transmission, electrical and emission systems. The CHECK ENGINE light will light up if the computer senses a
condition that potentially may need correcting. When this happens, please have your vehicle checked by a Volvo
retailer as soon as possible.
A CHECK ENGINE light may have many causes. Sometimes, you may not notice a change in your vehicle's behavior.
Even so, an uncorrected condition could hurt fuel economy, emission cleanliness, and driveability. Extended driving
without correcting the cause could even damage other components in your vehicle.
Canadian models are equipped with this warning light.
