pg. 22 Warning lights
The warning lights described on pages 22 and 23 should never stay on when driving
When the ignition key is turned on and before the engine starts, all of the warning lights should go on to test the
function of the bulbs. Should a light not go off after the engine has started, the system indicated should be
inspected. However, the parking brake reminder light will not go off until the parking brake has been fully
released.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
If the light comes on (or stays on after the vehicle has started), the SRS diagnostic system has detected a fault.
Drive to an authorized Volvo retailer for an inspection of the system. See the SRS section for more information.
Oil pressure 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 114.
If the light stays on after restart, have the car 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.
Parking brake reminder light
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:
WARNING!
If the fluid level is below the lowest MIN mark in the brake fluid reservoir: DO NOT DRIVE. Tow the car to a
Volvo retailer and have the brake system checked and any leakage repaired.
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 116 for reservoir position.
If the control lamp still stays on, the EBD (Electronic Brakeforce Distribution) is not working.
Drive to your Volvo dealer. See ABS control lamp and also page 73.

Canadian models are equipped with this warning light:
Bulb failure warning light
The light will come on if one of the brake light bulbs are defective when the brake pedal is pressed.
Check the fuse and bulb. See sections "Replacing bulbs" and "fuses".
pg. 23 Warning lights, Daytime Running Lights
DSA (option)
Dynamic Stability Assistance
This is a system which helps keep the drivewheels from spinning. The light flashes if the road surface is slippery,
the wheels are spinning and the system is working.
The control light comes on if a fault occurs in the DSA system. It also comes on if the system is switched off via
the switch.
For more information see page 30.
Service Reminder Light
This light will come on according to preset service intervals or after 750 hours of driving or after 12 months,
whichever occurs first. It is a reminder to the driver that the service interval has been exceeded. The light will
stay on for 2 minutes after start until reset by the servicing retailer.
Anti-lock Brake system (ABS)
If the warning lamp lights up there is a malfunction of the ABS system (the standard braking system will
however function). The vehicle should be driven to a Volvo retailer for inspection.
See page 73
for additional information.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp
On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII): As you drive, a computer called "OBDII" monitors your car'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 car 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 car'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 car.

Attaching the jack
There are two jack attachment points located on each side of the car. These attachment points are marked by arrows on
the outside of the cover over the bottom sill (see illustration).
Check that the doors are closed and stay closed all the time the car is jacked up.
· Position the jack under the two notches closest to the wheel to be changed (1).
· Attach the crank to the jack (A).
· Attach the lug wrench (B) to the crank.
· Raise the jack by cranking it clockwise. Be sure the jack engages the attachment point correctly.
The base of the jack must be flat on a level, firm, non-slippery surface. Before raising the car, check that the
jack is still correctly positioned in the attachment point.
· Raise the car until the wheel to be changed is lifted off the ground.
· Unscrew the wheel bolts completely and carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the thread on the studs.
WARNING!
The jack must be correctly placed in the jack attachment.
Installing the wheel
Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel and hub. Lift the wheel and place it on the hub. Install the wheel bolts
crosswise and tighten until snug by turning clockwise. Lower the vehicle to the ground and alternately tighten the bolts
to 81 ft. lbs. (110 Nm). Install the wheel cover (where applicable).
CAUTION:
· Correct tightening torque on wheel bolts must be observed. The wheel bolts should never be greased or lubricated.
Extended, chromed wheel bolts must not be used with steel rims, as they make it impossible to fit the hub caps.
