function). The vehicle should be
driven to a Volvo retailer for

See page 67 for additional
information.
Canadian models are equipped
with this warning light:
Mode "W" engaged
The lamp will light up when the
Winter/Wet mode is engaged.
If the warning lamp begins to
flash,this means that there is a
fault in the automatic gearbox.
Contact your Volvo retailer.

on after the vehicle has started),
the SRS diagnostic system has
detected a fault. Drive to an
authorized Volvo retailer for an
