ABL faultThe symbol illuminates if a fault has arisen in the ABL function (Active Bending Lights).
Emissions systemIf the symbol illuminates after the engine hasbeen started then it may be due to a fault inthe car's emissions system. Drive to a work-shop for checking. Volvo recommends thatyou seek assistance from an authorised Volvoworkshop.
ABS faultIf this symbol illuminates then the system isnot working. The car's regular brake systemcontinues to work, but without the ABS func-tion.
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 youseek assistance from an authorised Volvoworkshop.
Rear fog lamp onThis symbol illuminates when the rear foglamp is switched on.
Stability systemA flashing symbol indicates that the stabilitysystem is operating. If the symbol illuminateswith constant glow then there is a fault in thesystem.
Stability system, sport modeSport mode allows for a more active drivingexperience. The system then detects whetherthe accelerator pedal, steering wheel move-ments and cornering are more active than innormal driving and then allows controlledskidding of the rear section up to a certainlevel before it intervenes and stabilises thecar.
Engine preheater (diesel)This symbol illuminates during engine pre-heating. Preheating mostly takes place due tolow temperature.
Low level in fuel tankWhen the symbol illuminates the level in thefuel tank is low, refuel as soon as possible.

Active high beam*
The Active High Beam function detects the headlamp beams of oncoming traffic or therear lights of vehicles in front, and switchesthe lighting from main beam to dipped beam.Xenon headlamps only dim the portion of thelight beam that points directly to the vehicle.The lighting returns to main beam when theincoming light has stopped.
Active high beam - AHBActive high beam (Active High Beam - AHB) isa function which uses a camera sensor at thetop edge of the windscreen to detect theheadlamp beams of oncoming traffic or therear lights of vehicles in front, and thenswitches from main beam to dipped beam.The function can also take streetlights intoaccount. Car with halogen headlamps The lighting returns to main beam about a second after the camera sensor no longerdetects the headlamp beams from oncomingtraffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front. Car with Xenon headlamps Unlike what happens during conventional dimming, the light beam continues with mainbeam on both sides of oncoming traffic orvehicles ahead - only the part of the light

The function can start while driving in the dark when the car's speed is 20 km/h orhigher. Activate/deactivate AHB by moving the left- hand stalk switch towards the steering wheelto the end position and then releasing. Deac-tivation when main beam is on means that thelights are reset directly to dipped beam. Car with analogue combined instrument panel When AHB is activated the
symbol illu-
minates in the instrument's information dis- play. When main beam is switched on the
symbol also illuminates in the combined instrument panel. This also applies for Xenonheadlamps if the main beam is partially dimmed, i.e. as soon as the light beam shineswith slightly more than dipped beam. Car with digital combined instrument panel When AHB is activated the
symbol
turns white in the instrument's information display. When main beam is activated, the symbol shines blue. This also applies for Xenon head-lamps if the main beam is partially dimmed,i.e. as soon as the light beam shines withslightly more than dipped beam.

NOTE
Keep the windscreen surface in front of the camera sensor free from ice, snow, mistand dirt. Do not stick or attach anything to the windscreen in front of the camera sensoras this may reduce effectiveness or causeone or more of the systems dependent onthe camera to stop working.
