1. Folding head restraints (option)
This button is used to fold down the outboard rear head restraints. The ignition key must be in position I or II or the
engine must be running.
NOTE: If the head restraints have been folded down, they must be returned to their original position manually. The
head restraints should be in the upright position before the rear seat backrests are folded down.
WARNING!
For safety reasons, no one should be allowed to sit in the outboard rear seat positions if the head restraints are
folded down. If these positions are occupied, the head restraints should be in the upright (fixed) position.

4. Stability Traction Control system (option)
NOTE: Press this switch for at least half a second to turn the STC system on or off. An LED in the switch will light
up to indicate that the system is on. See page 139
for more information on STC. This system should be switched off if
you, for any reason, temporarily have to drive with tires of different dimensions (e. g., spare tire).
NOTE: To help reduce the risk that this system is turned off inadvertently, the switch must be held in for at least half
a second to turn STC off. The warning symbol in the instrument panel will light up to indicate that STC is OFF.

5. Dynamic Stability Traction Control system (option)
This button is used to switch DSTC off. When the LED in the button is ON, this indicates that the system is ON (the
light will also come on if a fault has been detected in the system).
NOTE: To avoid inadvertently switching the system off, the button must be pressed for at least half a second before
DSTC is deactivated. The text "DSTC off" will be displayed briefly in the text window. The warning symbol will
come on to indicate that DSTC has been switched off. The system is automatically switched on when the engine is
started. DSTC should be switched off if the steering wheel position or the front wheels are not properly aligned.

8. 12 volt socket
This 12 volt socket can be used to plug in certain accessories such as cellular telephones, etc. The ignition key must

pg. 39 Lighting panel
A - Headlights and parking lights
All lighting off.
Models with daytime running lights:
Low beam headlights will automatically come on if the ignition key is in position II. Front and rear parking lights and
license plate lights will also be on. Volvo recommends the use of daytime running lights. If, however, you would
prefer to have these lights turned off (USA only), please consult your Volvo retailer. Please note that the use of
daytime running lights is mandatory in Canada.
Parking lights on. The parking lights should be switched off when you leave the car to help avoid battery
drain.
Headlights, parking lights, license plate lights and instrument panel illumination are on if the ignition key is in
position II.
If the headlight switch is in this position, all lights will go out when the ignition is switched off.
The headlight switch must be in this position before the high beams will function.
Switch from high to low beams and vice versa by pulling the turn signal switch lever on the left side of steering
column toward you.
B - Instrument lighting
Move the thumb wheel up to increase brightness or down to decrease brightness. There is also an instrument panel
illumination sensor (see illustration on page 54
) which automatically adjusts the level of illumination.
The symbols have maximum illumination in daylight (only the background lighting can be adjusted). At night, both
the symbol light and background lighting can be adjusted.

release of the powder may appear as smoke- like matter. This is a normal characteristic and does not indicate fire.
NOTE: Volvo's dual- threshold, dual- stage airbags use special sensors that are integrated with the front seat buckles.
The point at which the airbag deploys is determined by whether or not the seat belt is being used, as well as the
severity of the collision. Collisions can occur where only one of the airbags deploys.
If the impact is less severe, but severe enough to present a clear injury risk, the dual- stage airbags are triggered at
just 70% of their total capacity. If the impact is more severe, the dual- stage airbags are triggered at full capacity.
WARNING!
Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/ backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend
that occupants under 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) in height who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the
seat belt fastened. Never drive with the airbags deployed. The fact that they hang out can impair the steering of your
car. Other safety systems can also be damaged. The smoke and dust formed when the airbags are deployed can
cause skin and eye irritation in the event of prolonged exposure.
pg. 14 Airbags (Supplemental Restraint System)
WARNING!
Children must never be allowed in the front passenger's seat. Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and
children) shorter than 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) be seated in the back seat of any vehicle with a front passenger -side
airbag. See page 28
for guidelines.
Occupants in the front passenger's seat must never sit on the edge of the seat, sit leaning toward the instrument
panel or otherwise sit out of position. The occupant's back must be as upright as comfort allows and be against the
seat back with the seat belt properly fastened.
Feet must be on the floor, e. g. not on the dash, seat or out of the window. No objects or accessory equipment, e. g.
dash covers, may be placed on, attached to, or installed near the SRS hatch (the area above the glove compartment)
or the area affected by airbag deployment (see illustration on page 12
).
There should be no loose articles, e. g. coffee cups, on the floor, seat or dash area. Never try to open the SRS cover
on the steering wheel or the passenger side dash. This should only be done by an authorized Volvo service
technician.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury to the vehicle occupants
Warning light in the instrument panel
A self - diagnostic system incorporated in the sensor monitors the SRS. This system does not, however, monitor the
Side Impact Protection System (SIPS) airbags. If a fault is detected, the warning light will illuminate. The light is
included in the warning/ indicator light cluster in the instrument panel. Normally, the SRS warning lamp should light
