Safety system warning light in the instrument panel
A self-diagnostic system incorporated in the sensor monitors certain saf\
ety system components. A check
is performed on components such as seat belt locks, SRS, Occupant Weight\
Sensor, SIPS, and/or the
VIC system. If a fault is detected, the warning light will illuminate. T\
he light is included in the warning/
indicator light cluster in the instrument panel. Normally, the safety sy\
stem warning lamp should light up
when the ignition key is turned to positions I, II or III and should go \
out after approximately 7 seconds
or when the engine is started. Check that this light is functioning prop\
erly every time the vehicle is
started.
WARNING!
If the SRS warning light stays on after the engine has started or if it \
comes on while you are driving,
drive the vehicle to the nearest authorized Volvo retailer for inspectio\
n as soon as possible.
