WARNING
•
The WHIPS system is designed to supplement the other safety systemsin your vehicle. For this system tofunction properly, the three-point seatbelt must be worn. Please be awarethat no system can prevent all possibleinjuries that may occur in an accident.
• The WHIPS system is designed tofunction in certain collisions from therear, depending on the crash severity,angle and speed.
WARNING
•
Occupants in the front seats must never sit out of position. The occu-pant's back must be as upright ascomfort allows and be against the seatback with the seat belt properly fas-tened.
• If your vehicle has been involved in arear-end collision, the front seat back-rests must be inspected by a trainedand qualified Volvo service technician,even if the seats appear to be undam-aged. Certain components in theWHIPS system may need to bereplaced.
• Do not attempt to service any compo-nent in the WHIPS system yourself.
WARNING
•Boxes, suitcases, etc. wedged behind the front seats could impede the func-tion of the WHIPS system.
• If the rear seat backrests are foldeddown, cargo must be secured to pre-vent it from sliding forward against thefront seat backrests in the event of acollision from the rear. This couldinterfere with the action of the WHIPSsystem.
WARNING
Any contact between the front seat back- rests and the folded rear seat or a rear-facing child seat could impede the functionof the WHIPS system. If the rear seat isfolded down, the occupied front seatsmust be adjusted forward so that they donot touch the folded rear seat.

Malfunction Indicator LightAs you drive, a computer called On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII) monitors your vehicle'sengine, transmission, electrical and emissionsystems. The malfunction indicator light will illuminate if the computer senses a condition that poten-tially may need correcting. When this hap-pens, please have your vehicle checked by atrained and qualified Volvo service technicianas soon as possible. A malfunction indicator light may have many causes. Sometimes, you may not notice achange in your car's behavior. Even so, anuncorrected condition could hurt fuel econ-omy, emission controls, and drivability.Extended driving without correcting the causecould even damage other components inyour vehicle. This light may illuminate if the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine was runningwhile the vehicle was refueled.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)If the warning light comes on, there may be a malfunction in the ABS system (the standardbraking system will still function). Check thesystem by:
1. Stopping in a safe place and switching off
the ignition.
2. Restart the engine. 3. If the warning light goes off, no further
action is required.
If the indicator light remains on, the vehicle should be driven to a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician for inspection, seeBrakes – general (p. 262) for additional infor-mation.

Certain engines do not use this symbol to indicate low oil pressure. On these models, a text message will be dis-played on the instrument panel instead, see Engine com-partment – engine oil (p. 325).
B The symbol is Park only on models with the optional digital
instrument panel.
Low oil pressureIf the light comes on while driving, stop the vehicle, stop the engine immediately, andcheck the engine oil level. Add oil if neces- sary. If the oil level is normal and the lightstays on after restart, have the vehicle towedto the nearest trained and qualified Volvoservice technician.

Generator not chargingThis symbol comes on during driving if a fault has occurred in the electrical system. Contactan authorized Volvo workshop.
Engine temperatureEngine overheating can result from low oil or coolant levels, towing or hard driving at highheat and altitude, or mechanical malfunction.Engine overheating will be signaled with textand a red warning triangle in the middle of theinstrument display. The exact text will dependon the degree of overheating. It may range from
High engine temp Reduce speed toHigh engine temp Stop engine. If appropri-
ate, other messages, such as Coolant level
low, Stop safely will also be displayed. If
your engine does overheat so that you must stop the engine, always allow the engine tocool before attempting to check oil and cool-ant levels. See Engine compartment – coolant (p. 327) for more information.
Fault in brake systemIf this symbol lights, the brake fluid level may be too low. Stop the vehicle in a safe placeand check the level in the brake fluid reser-voir, see Engine compartment – brake fluid(p. 328). If the level in the reservoir is belowMIN , the vehicle should be transported to an
authorized Volvo workshop to have the brakesystem checked. If the
and symbols come on
at the same time, there may be a fault in the brake force distribution system.
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the engine.
2. Restart the engine.
• If both symbols extinguish, continue driv- ing.
• If the symbols remain on, check the levelin the brake fluid reservoir, see Enginecompartment – brake fluid (p. 328). If thebrake fluid level is normal but the sym-bols are still lit, the vehicle can be driven,with great care, to an authorized Volvoworkshop to have the brake systemchecked.
• If the level in the reservoir is below
MIN,
the vehicle should be transported to anauthorized Volvo workshop to have thebrake system checked.WARNING
• If the fluid level is below the
MIN mark
in the reservoir or if a warning mes- sage is displayed in the text window:DO NOT DRIVE . Have the vehicle
towed to a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician and have the brakesystem inspected.
• If the
and symbols
are on at the same time, there is a risk of reduced vehicle stability.
Warning symbolThe red warning symbol lights up to indicate a problem related to safety and/or drivability.A message will also appear in the instrumentpanel. The symbol remains visible until thefault has been rectified but the text messagecan be cleared with the OK button, see Infor-
