8 High beam indicator light
9 Tachometer
Indicates engine speed in thousands of rpm. Do not drive for long with the needle in the red section. The engine has an
built-in function preventing too high an engine speed. When this function operates, you may discern some pulsation,
which in that case is quite normal.
10 Gear and driving mode indicator
The currently selected driving mode is displayed here. If you use the geartronic function on the automatic transmission,
the currently selected gear will be displayed.
11 Ambient temperature indicator
This display indicates the air temperature outside your car. A "snowflake" symbol in the text window is displayed
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.
12 Clock/reset button
Turn the button to adjust the clock.
13 Fuel gauge
The fuel tank holds approximately 21.1 US gal. (80 liters)*. When the warning light comes on there are approximately
1.8 US gal. (8 liters) of fuel remaining.
14 Indicator and warning lights
* 18.5 US gals (70 liters) on V70 AWD, V70 XC and V70 with non-turbo engine.
pg. 26 Instruments, switches and controls
The indicator and warning lights described on pages 26 and 27 should never stay on when driving*
When the ignition key is turned, all of the warning lights in the lower right-hand side of the instrument panel should
go on to test the function of the bulbs. If a light does not go off after the engine has started, the system indicated
should be inspected.
NOTE: The parking brake reminder light will not go off until the parking brake has been fully released.

Use the switch on the front door armrests to lock/unlock the car from the inside.
WARNING!
If the doors are locked while driving, this may hinder rapid access to the occupants of the car in the event of an
accident. (Also see information on "Child safety locks").
NOTE: To help prevent accidentally locking the keys in the car, the central locking system is designed to unlock the
doors immediately if the key is left in the ignition switch, the car is locked using the lock button on the door and the
door is then closed. A sound from the lock will be audible at this time.
Please note that this function will not unlock the doors if the engine is running.
Immobilizer (start inhibitor)
Each of the keys supplied with your car contains a coded transmitter. The code in the key is transmitted to an antenna
in the ignition switch where it is compared to the code stored in the start inhibitor module. The car will start only with
a properly coded key. If you misplace a key, take the other keys to an authorized Volvo retailer for reprogramming as
an antitheft measure.
*This key operates only driver's door and ignition switch/steering wheel lock.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following condition: (1) This device
may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
Exterior courtesy lights
Home Safe System
When you leave your car at night, you can make use of the courtesy lighting function:
Remove the key from the ignition switch.
Pull the direction indicator lever towards the steering wheel (as when activating the high beams).
Exit the car and lock the doors.
The headlights, parking lights, license plate lights and the lights in the sideview mirrors will now come on and remain
on for 30, 60 or 90 seconds (the time interval is at your discretion and can be changed by an authorized Volvo retailer).
Approach lighting
When approaching the car at night, press the yellow button in the central locking remote control (see illustration on
page 70). This lights up the interior courtesy light, parking lights, license plate lights and the lights in the sideview
mirrors.

Replacing high/low beam headlight bulbs
The headlight bulbs must be replaced from the engine compartment.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the glass on halogen bulbs with your fingers. Grease, oil or any other impurities can be carbonized onto
the bulb and cause damage to the reflector.
Be sure to use bulbs of the correct type and voltage.
To remove a defective low beam bulb:
Switch off all lights and turn the ignition switch to position 0.
Open the hood.
Remove the plastic cover over the bulb (1) by turning it counterclockwise.
Remove the connector (2).
Loosen the retaining spring (3) by first moving it to the right and then moving it down, out of the way.
Pull out the defective bulb. Note the position of the guide lug on the base of the bulb (4).
To install a new low beam bulb (H7):
Insert the new bulb, without touching the glass, with the guide lug upward (1). The bulb will only seat properly in
this position.
Move the retaining spring up and push it slightly to the left until it seats properly (2).
Press the connector into place on the bulb (3).
Reinstall the plastic cover and turn it clockwise until it is correctly in place (4). "TOP" must be upward.
NOTE: If the vertical aim of your headlights needs to be adjusted for any reason (e.g., towing a trailer for extended
periods), this should be done by an authorized Volvo retailer.
