ger the alarm. Press the remote key into the

Models with keyless drive have a button on the
outside door handles
The doors and the trunk can be locked by
pressing the lock button in any of the outside
door handles.

Keyless drive remote key and driver's
seat/door mirror memory
•When you leave the vehicle with a PCC in
your possession and lock any door, the
position of the driver's seat and door mir-
rors will be stored in the seat's memory.
•The next time a door is opened by a person
with the same PCC in his/her possession,
the driver's seat and door mirrors will auto-
matically move to the position that they
were in when the door was most recently
locked.
NOTE
If several people carrying PCCs approach
the vehicle at the same time, the driver's
seat and door mirrors will assume the posi-
tions they were in for the person who opens
the driver's door.
See also page 83 for information on adjusting
and storing the seat's position in the seat mem-
ory.
Keyless drive information messagesIf all of the PCCs are removed from the vehicle
while the engine is running or if the ignition is
in mode II (see page 80) and all of the doors
are closed, a message will appear in the instru-
ment panel display and an audible signal will
sound.
When at least one PCC has been returned to
the car, the message will be erased in the dis-
play and the audible signal will stop when:
•A door has been opened and closed
•The PCC has been inserted in the ignition
slot
•The READ button (see page 125 for the
location of this button) has been pressed.

67 The alarm system
The alarm is automatically armed whenever the
vehicle is locked with the remote key or
optional Personal Car Communicator.
When armed, the alarm continuously monitors
a number of points on the vehicle. The follow-
ing conditions will trigger the alarm:
•The hood is forced open.
•The trunk is forced open
•A door is forced open.
•The ignition slot is tampered with.
•An attempt is made to start the vehicle with
a non-approved key (a key not coded to
the car's ignition).
•If there is movement in the passenger com-
partment (if the vehicle is equipped with
the accessory movement sensor).
•The vehicle is lifted or towed (if the vehicle
is equipped with the accessory inclination
sensor).
•The battery is disconnected (while the
alarm is armed).
•The siren is disconnected when the alarm
is disarmed.
A message will appear in the information dis-
play if a fault should occur in the alarm system.
Contact a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair any of the compo-
nents in the alarm system yourself. This
could affect the insurance policy on the
vehicle.
The alarm indicator light
The status of the alarm system is indicated by
the red indicator light on the dashboard (see
illustration):
•Indicator light off – the alarm is not armed
•The indicator light flashes at one-second

Fuel gauge. Please note that the fuel level
indicator in the gauge moves from right to
left as the amount of fuel in the tank
decreases. The arrow indicates the side of
the vehicle that the fuel filler door is on. See
also the section on refueling beginning on
page 262. See page 142 for more infor-
mation on fuel level and consumption.
The tachometer shows engine speed in
thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm).
Do not drive continuously with the needlein the red area of the gauge. The engine
management system will automatically
prevent excessively high engines speeds.
This will be noticeable as a pronounced
unevenness in engine speed.

Malfunction Indicator Light
As you drive, a computer called On-Board
Diagnostics II (OBDII) monitors your vehicle's
engine, transmission, electrical and emission
systems.
The malfunction indicator (CHECK ENGINE)
light will illuminate if the computer senses acondition that potentially may need correcting.
When this happens, please have your vehicle
checked by a trained and qualified Volvo serv-
ice technician as soon as possible.
A malfunction indicator (CHECK ENGINE) light
may have many causes. Sometimes, you may
not notice a change in your car's behavior.
Even so, an uncorrected condition could hurt
fuel economy, emission controls, and drivabil-
ity. Extended driving without correcting the
cause could even damage other components
in your vehicle.
This light may illuminate if the fuel filler cap is
not closed tightly or if the engine was running
while the vehicle was refueled.
Canadian models are equipped with this
symbol.

the ignition.
2. Restart the engine.
3. If the warning light goes off, no further
action is required.If the warning light remains on, the vehicle
should be driven to a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician for inspection, see
page 116 for additional information.
Canadian models are equipped with this
symbol.
Rear fog light
This symbol indicates that the rear fog light
(located in the driver's side tail light cluster) is

This indicator symbol flashes when the DSTC
(Dynamic Stability and Traction Control sys-
tem) is actively working to stabilize the vehicle,
see page 144 for more detailed information.
Tire pressure monitoring system
(TPMS)*
This symbol illuminates to indicate that tire
pressure in one or more tires is low, see
page 301 for detailed information.
Low fuel level
When this light comes on, the vehicle should
be refueled as soon as possible. See page
262 for information about fuel and refueling.
