provide the protection intended, seat belts must be worn at all times by everyone in the car.
The SRS system is a supplement to the seat belts.WARNING!
If your car has been subjected to flood conditions (e.g. soaked carpeting/standing water on the floor of the vehicle)
or if your car has become flood-damaged in any way, do not attempt to start the vehicle or put the key in the ignition
before disconnecting the battery (see below). This may cause airbag deployment which could result in personal
injury. Have the car towed to an authorized Volvo retailer for repairs.
Before attempting to tow the car, use the following procedure to override the shiftlock system to move the gear
selector to the neutral position.
Disconnect the battery
Wait at least one minute
Insert the key in the ignition and turn it to position 1
Press firmly on the shiftlock override button (located near the base of the gear selector)
While holding the override button down, move the gear selector from the park position.
WARNING!
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. 22 Warning lights
The warning lights described on pages 22 and 23 should never stay on when driving
When the ignition key is turned on and before the engine starts, all of the warning lights should go on to test the
function of the bulbs. Should a light not go off after the engine has started, the system indicated should be inspected.
However, the parking brake reminder light will not go off until the parking brake has been fully released.
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
If the light comes on (or stays on after the vehicle has started), the SRS diagnostic system has detected a fault. Drive to
an authorized Volvo retailer for an inspection of the system. See the SRS section for more information.
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 114.
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.
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:
WARNING!
If the fluid level is below the lowest MIN mark in the brake fluid reservoir: DO NOT DRIVE. Tow the car to a
Volvo retailer and have the brake system checked and any leakage repaired.

Alarm
The radio signal emitted from the transmitter, which is used to set/unset the alarm, is a "rolling code" signal. This
means that the signal is changed randomly for each transmission and is intended to help prevent unauthorized
recording of the code.
When armed (set), the alarm continuously monitors a number of points on the car. The following conditions will set off
the alarm:
The hood is opened
The trunk/tailgate is opened
A door is opened
The ignition switch is tampered with
The alarm will sound for 30 second intervals, with a 10 second pause between intervals. This function cannot be
interrupted.
If the battery or the siren are disconnected, the alarm will sound for five minutes
Arming (setting) the alarm
The alarm can be armed in the following ways:
ProCarManuals.com

Press the LOCK button on the remote control (the turn signals will flash to confirm that the car is locked and the
alarm is armed)

If the alarm is set off, an audible alarm signal is given by the backup siren. One alarm cycle lasts for 30 seconds.
pg. 44 Alarm
LED alarm status signals
The status of the alarm system is indicated by the red LED at the right side of the dash:
LED off - the alarm is not armed (set)
LED flashes once per second - the alarm is armed (set)
LED flashes rapidly before the ignition is switched on - the alarm has been triggered
LED flashes rapidly for 15 seconds after the ignition has been switched on - a fault has been detected in the alarm
system. Contact a Volvo retailer.
Automatic relock
If only the driver's door is unlocked with the remote control, the lock will automatically reengage (re-lock) and the
alarm will be set after 2 minutes unless the door has been opened.

done by an authorized Volvo retailer.
Battery
Each remote transmitter is powered by a three-volt battery, type CR 2025. If the range of the transmitter is noticeably
reduced, this indicates that the battery is weak and should be replaced.

Shift lock
In order to move the gear selector from P position to the other gear positions the key must be in driving position
(position II) and the brake pedal must be depressed. See page 99
for information on how to move the gear selector
manually in case of a dead battery.
R Reverse
The car must be at a standstill before you select Reverse gear.
N Neutral position
The N position is the neutral position. The engine can be started, but no gear is selected. Apply the parking brake when
the car is stationary with the gear selector in position N.
D Driving position
D is the normal driving position. The gear se-lector automatically shifts up and down between the transmission gears,
based on the level of acceleration and the speed. The car should be stationary when you select D from position R.
4 Low gear position
Shifting up and down between the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th occurs automatically.
Shifting up to Drive does not occur.
Position 4 can be used:
for mountain driving
for driving with trailer
to increase the engine braking
3 Low gear position
Shifting up and down between the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd occurs automatically.
The 4th and Drive gears will not be engaged.
Position 3 can be used:
for mountain driving
for driving with trailer
to increase the engine braking
L Low gear position
Choose position L if you want to drive with the 1st or 2nd gear engaged. Position L gives the best possible engine
braking effect when, for example, mountain driving.
Shifting up to 5th does not occur.
Position 4 can be used:
for mountain driving
for driving with trailer
to increase the engine braking
Downshifting protection
There is a built in protection in the transmission which prevents over revving in the engine when you select one of the
low gear positions.

Anti-theft code
The radio features anti-theft circuitry. If the set is removed from the vehicle or if the battery power is disconnected, a
special code must be entered to enable operation of the set.
Your Volvo retailer will supply you with this code.
NOTE: Volvo recommends that you store the radio code in a safe place.
A red LED will flash when the key had been removed from the ignition to confirm that the anti-theft circuitry has
been activated.
To enter the code
After installation or when the set has been disconnected from power, the set displays "input CODE ****" when it is
switched on.
Enter the 4-digit code using the 1-20/DISC knob. Select a number for a digit by rotating the 1-20/DISC knob. And
then push the knob to enter the number. Repeat the procedure for all 4 digits.
If the correct code is entered the set is ready to use.
If you enter an incorrect code you must enter the correct code again from the beginning.

attempts the set will lock and remain locked for two hours.
"OFF" is displayed.
During this waiting period:
the battery must be connected
the ignition key must be turned to position I
the unit must be turned on
Make sure the headlights are turned off to help prevent battery drain.
