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:
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 111
. 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.
Generator warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is running, have the charging system checked.
pg. 25 Indicator and warning lights
Rear fog light
This light indicates that the rear fog light is on.
CHECK

If the light comes on (or stays on after the vehicle has started), the engine diagnostic system has detected a possible
fault in the emission control system. Although driveability may not be affected, see an authorized Volvo retailer as
soon as possible for inspection.

Indicator Lamp may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo
original or approved fuel filler caps.

Anti-lock Brake System ABS
If the warning light comes on, there is a malfunction of the ABS system (the standard braking system pwill however
function). The vehicle should be driven to a Volvo retailer for inspection. See page 17 for additional information.
Stability Traction Control (STC) system (option)
An LED in the STC switch in the center console will light up to indicate that the system is activated. See page 18 for
further information.

· Recirculation should not be used for more than 15 minutes. If your windows begin to fog or mist, make sure that the
recirculation function is switched off.
· Selecting Defroster automatically switches recirculation off.
· Timer function: Pressing and holding the switch for at least 3 seconds activates a timer function. The LED in the
switch will flash for approximately 5 seconds. Recirculation will then always operate for periods of 5 to 12 minutes,
depending on the ambient temperature, after which it will switch off automatically. Pressing the switch at any time
during the recirculation period will disengage the function and allow fresh air into the passenger compartment.
Press and hold the switch again for at least 3 seconds to return the button to its original function (i.e., recirculation will
remain on until you switch it off).
Blower control Turn the control clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the blower speed. Pressing the
AUTO switch will automatically regulate blower speed and override manual adjustment.
NOTE: Turning the blower control counterclockwise as far as possible (an LED next to the control will light up) will
turn both the blower and the air conditioning off.
Air flow
Air flow to windows
Air from panel vents
Air through floor vents
Press AUTO to automatically regulate air flow or press any combination of the controls shown in the illustration to
manually adjust air flow. An LED in the switch will light up if an air flow control has been pressed.
Air conditioning ON/OFF Press the switch to turn the air conditioning on or off. The "ON" or "OFF" LED will light
up to indicate if the system is switched on or off. Other functions will still be regulated automatically (if the AUTO
switch is on).
