Warning lights
The warning lights described on pages 18 and 19 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

On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII): As you
drive, a computer called “OBDII” monitors
your car’s engine, transmission, electrical and
emission systems. The CHECK ENGINE
light will light up if the computer senses a
condition that potentially may need correcting.
When this happens, 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 econo-
my, emission cleanliness, and driveability.
Extended driving without correcting the cause
could even damage other components in your
car.

Brake system - EBD, STC
Severe strain on the brake
system
The brakes will be subject to severe strain
when driving in mountains or hilly areas or
towing. Vehicle speed is usually slower, which
means that the cooling of the brakes is less
efficient than when driving on level roads. To
reduce the strain on the brakes, shift into a
lower gear and let the engine help with the
braking. Do not forget that, if you are towing a
trailer, the brakes will be subjected to a greater
than normal load.
