Indicates engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm). Do not drive for long with the needle in the red
section. The engine has an built-in function preventing excessively high engine speeds. When this function operates,
you may discern some pulsation, which in that case is quite normal.

when the temperature is in the range of 23 - 36° F (- 5 - +2° C). Please note that this symbol does not indicate a fault
with your car.
At low speeds or when the car is not moving, the temperature readings may be slightly higher than the actual ambient
temperature.

The indicator and warning symbols light up when you turn the ignition key to the driving position (position II) before
starting. This shows that the symbols are functioning. When the engine starts, all symbols go out. If the engine is not
started within 5 seconds, all symbols except CHECK ENGINE and
go out. Certain symbols may not have their
functions illustrated, depending on the car's equipment. The symbol for the parking brake goes out when the parking
brake is released.
Warning symbol

BRAKE 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 170
for reservoir position and page 174 for instructions.
Canadian models are equipped with this warning light:
If the BRAKE and ABS warning lights come on at the same time, this could indicate a fault in the brake
system.
Stop the car in a suitable place and switch off the engine.
Restart the engine.
If both warning lights go off, no further action is required.
If both lights are still on after the engine has been restarted, switch off the engine again and check the brake fluid
level (see page 170
for the location of the brake fluid reservoir).
WARNING!
If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the reservoir or if a "Brake failure - Service urgent" message is
displayed in the text window: DO NOT DRIVE. Have the car towed to an authorized Volvo retailer and have the
brake system inspected.
If the brake fluid level is above the MIN mark, drive carefully to an authorized Volvo retailer and have the brake
system inspected.
pg. 33 Indicator and warning symbols

Service reminder indicator
This light will come on at 7,500 mile (12,000 km) intervals, after 750 hours of driving or after 12 months, whichever
occurs first, to remind 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.
ProCarManuals.com
If the indicator light remains on, drive to an authorized Volvo retailer to have the system inspected.

Trip computer functions
Driving distance on current fuel reserve This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the fuel
remaining in the tank. This calculation is based on average fuel consumption during the last 12 miles (20 km) of
driving and the amount of fuel remaining in the tank when the reading was taken.
When the driving distance on current fuel reserve is less than 12 miles (20 km), "----" will be displayed in the text
window.
Average fuel consumption
ProCarManuals.com
This value indicates fuel consumption since the last time the trip computer was reset (by pressing RESET, button C).
When the engine is switched off, information on fuel consumption is stored and remains in system memory until the
RESET (button C) is pressed again.
Current fuel consumption
This value indicates the current fuel consumption, based on readings taken once per second. When the car is not
moving, "----" will be displayed.
Average speed
This value indicates average speed since the last time the trip computer was reset (by pressing RESET, button C).
When the engine is switched off, information on average speed is stored and remains in system memory until the
RESET (button C) is pressed again.
