ABL faultThe symbol illuminates if a fault has arisen in
the ABL function (Active Bending Lights).
Emissions systemIf the symbol illuminates then it may be due to
a fault in the car's emissions system. Drive to
a workshop for checking. Volvo recommends
that you seek assistance from an authorised
Volvo workshop.
ABS faultIf this symbol illuminates then the system is not
working. The car's regular brake system con-
tinues to work, but without the ABS function.
1. Stop the car in a safe place and turn off the
engine.2. Restart the engine.
3. If the symbol remains illuminated, drive to
a workshop to have the ABS system
checked. Volvo recommends that you
seek assistance from an authorised Volvo
workshop.
Rear fog lamp onThis symbol illuminates when the rear fog lamp
is on. There is only one fog lamp. It is located
on the driver's side.
Stability systemA flashing symbol indicates that the stability
system is operating. If the symbol illuminates
with constant glow then there is a fault in the
system.
Stability system, Sport modeSport mode allows for a more active driving
experience. The system then detects whether
the accelerator pedal, steering wheel move-
ments and cornering are more active than in
normal driving and then allows controlled skid-
ding of the rear section up to a certain level
before it intervenes and stabilises the car.
Engine preheater (diesel)This symbol illuminates during engine preheat-
ing. Preheating takes place mostly due to low
temperature.
Low level in fuel tankWhen the symbol illuminates the level in the
fuel tank is low, refuel as soon as possible.
Information, read display textWhen one of the car's systems does not
behave as intended, this information symbol
illuminates and a text appears on the informa-
tion display. The message text is cleared with
the OK button, see page 200, or it disappears
automatically after a time (time depending on
which function is indicated). The information
symbol can also illuminate in conjunction with
other symbols.
NOTE
When a service message is shown, the sym-
bol and message are cleared using the OK
button, or disappear automatically after a
time.
Main beam OnThe symbol illuminates when main beam is on
and with main beam flash.
Left/right-hand direction indicatorsBoth direction indicator symbols flash when
the hazard warning flashers are used.
DRIVe – Start/Stop*The symbol shines when the engine is auto-
stopped.
Tyre pressure systemThe symbol illuminates in the event of low tyre
pressure, or if a fault arises in the tyre pressure
system.

Warning
AFor certain engine variants, the symbol for low oil pressure
is not used. Warnings are made via display text, see pages
329 and 331.
Low oil pressureIf this symbol illuminates during driving then
the engine's oil pressure is too low. Stop the
engine immediately and check the engine oil
level, top up if necessary. If the symbol illumi-
nates and the oil level is normal, contact a
workshop. Volvo recommends that you seek
assistance from an authorised Volvo work-
shop.
Parking brake appliedThis symbol illuminates with a constant glow
when the parking brake is applied. The symbol
flashes during application, and then changes
over to a constant glow.
A flashing symbol means that a fault has arisen.
Read the message on the information display.
Airbags – SRSIf this symbol remains illuminated or illuminates
while driving, it means a fault has been
detected in the seatbelt buckle, SRS, SIPS, or
IC systems. Drive immediately to a workshop
to have the system checked. Volvo recom-
mends that you seek assistance from an
authorised Volvo workshop.
Seatbelt reminderThis symbol illuminates if someone in a front
seat has not put on their seatbelt or if someone
in a rear seat has taken off their seatbelt.
Alternator not chargingThis symbol illuminates during driving if a fault
has occurred in the electrical system. Visit a
workshop. Volvo recommends that you seek
assistance from an authorised Volvo work-
shop.
Fault in brake systemIf this symbol illuminates, the brake fluid level
may be too low. Stop the car in a safe placeand check the level in the brake fluid reservoir,
see page 333.
If the brake and ABS symbols illuminate at the
same time, there may be a fault in the brake
force distribution system.
1. Stop the car in a safe place and turn off the
engine.
2. Restart the engine.
•If both symbols extinguish, continue
driving.
•If the symbols remain illuminated, check
the level in the brake fluid reservoir, see
page 333. If the brake fluid level is nor-
mal but the symbols are still illuminated,
the car can be driven, with great care, to
a workshop to have the brake system
checked. Volvo recommends that you
seek assistance from an authorised
Volvo workshop.
WARNING
If the brake fluid is under the MIN level in the
brake fluid reservoir, do not drive further
before topping up the brake fluid.
The loss of brake fluid must be investigated
by a workshop. Volvo recommends that you
contact an authorised Volvo workshop.

Functions at different levels
In order to enable the use of a limited number
of functions with the engine switched off, the
car's electrical system can be set in 3 different
levels (key positions) - 0, I and II - with the
remote control key. Throughout this owner's
manual these levels are described using the
denomination "key positions".
The following table shows the functions avail-
able in each key position/level.
LevelFunctions
0•Odometer, clock and tem-
perature gauge are illumi-
nated.
•Power seats can be adjusted.
•The audio system can be
used for a limited time - see
page 234.
I•Sunroof, power windows, 12
V socket in the passenger
compartment, RTI, phone,
ventilation fan and wind-
screen wipers can be used.
II•The headlamps come on.
•Warning/indicator lamps illu-
minate for 5 seconds.
•Several other systems are
activated. However, heating

after the engine has been
started.
This key position consumes a
lot of current from the starter
battery and should therefore be
avoided!

The display lighting is automatically subdued
in darkness - the sensitivity is set with the
thumbwheel.The intensity of the instrument lighting is
adjusted with the thumbwheel.
Headlamp levellingThe load in the car changes the vertical align-
ment of the headlamp beam, which could daz-
zle oncoming motorists. Avoid this by adjusting
the height of the beam. Lower the beam if the
car is heavily laden.
1. Leave the engine running, or have the car's
electrical system in key position I.
2. Roll the thumbwheel up/down to raise/
lower beam alignment.
Cars with active Xenon headlamps* have auto-
matic headlamp levelling and are therefore not
equipped with the thumbwheel.
