On-Board Diagnostic II (OBDII): As you drive, a computer called "OBDII" monitors your car's engine,
transmission, electrical and emission systems. The CHECK ENGINE light wi\
ll light up if the computer
senses a condition that potentially may need correcting. When this happe\
ns, please have your car checked by
a Volvo retailer as soon as possible.
A CHECK ENGINE light may have many causes. Sometimes, you may not notice\
a change in your car's
behavior. Even so, an uncorrected condition could hurt fuel economy, emi\
ssion cleanliness, and driveability.
Extended driving without correcting the cause could even damage other co\
mponents in your car.
Canadian models are equipped with this warning light:

NOTE: If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is runni\
ng when the car is refueled, the
Malfunction Indicator Lamp may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's\
performance will not be affected.
Use only Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps.

If the warning light comes on, there is a malfunction of the ABS system \
(the standard braking system will
still function). The vehicle should be driven to a Volvo retailer for i\
nspection. See
page 19 for additional
information.
