This light will be on when the parking brake (hand brake) is applied. The parking brake lever is situated between the
front seats.
Canadian models are equipped with this warning light:

If the light comes on while driving, stop the car and then stop the engine immediately and check the engine oil
level . See page 111

hard driving, the light may come on occasionally when the engine is idling. This is normal, provided it goes off when

Indicator Lamp may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo
original or approved fuel filler caps.

function). The vehicle should be driven to a Volvo retailer for inspection. See page 17 for additional information.
