pg. 29 Indicator and warning lights
Rear fog light
ProCarManuals.com

This light indicates that the rear fog light is on.
Malfunction indicator lamp
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 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 economy, emission cleanliness, and driveability. Extended driving
without correcting the cause could even damage other components 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 running 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.
Anti-lock Brake System ABS
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 inspection. See page 114
for additional information.
Stability Traction Control (STC) system (option), or Dynamic Stability and Traction Control (DSTC) system
(option)
An indicator light will flash when STC or DSTC is actively working to stabilize the car. See pages 115-116
for more
detailed information.
Turn signal indicator - trailer (certain models)
If you are towing a trailer, this light will flash simultaneously with the turn signals on the trailer. If the light does not
flash when signaling, neither the trailer's turn signals nor the car's turn signals are functioning.

pg. 51 Electronic Climate Control (ECC)
AUTO
This function automatically regulates the Electronic Climate Control system so that the selected temperatures are
maintained. The blower, heating, air distribution (air flow) and air conditioning are controlled. If you prefer to
manually set any of these functions, the remaining functions will still be controlled automatically. Pressing the AUTO
button overrides any settings that were previously made manually.
Temperature
These controls are used to individually set the temperature for both sides of the passenger compartment. Please note
that the compartment will not be heated or cooled faster by setting the temperature higher or lower than necessary. Set
the control to the temperature you prefer.
Defroster
This function demists/de-ices the windshield and front side windows. The LED in the switch will light up to indicate
that the defrost function is engaged. Blower speed increases automatically and the air in the passenger compartment is
dehumidified. Recirculation will not function while defrost is engaged.
Heated rear window/sideview mirrors
This function demists/de-ices the rear window and sideview mirrors. The LED in the switch will light up to indicate
that the heating function is engaged. See page 40
for additional information on this function.
CAUTION:
Never use ice scrapers made of metal as they can easily scratch the mirror surface.
pg. 52 Electronic Climate Control (ECC) - manual settings
Recirculation (see also page 55)
Press this switch to engage the recirculation function (air in the passenger compartment recirculates - no fresh air
enters the compartment). The LED in the switch will light up to indicate that the function is engaged.
Use this function if the outside air is contaminated with exhaust gases, smoke, etc or to heat/cool the car quickly.
Recirculation should not be used for more than 15 minutes. If your windows begin to fog or mist, make sure that the
recirculation function is switched off.
Selecting Defroster automatically switches recirculation off.

pg. 55 Manual climate control with air conditioning, A/C
A/C - ON/OFF
The air conditioning function is engaged by pressing ON and disengaged by pressing OFF. When you select Defroster
, the air conditioning is automatically engaged if the fan is not set to position 0.
Heated front seats (option)
Please see page 40
for more information on this function.
Heated rear window/sideview mirrors
This function demists/de-ices the rear window and sideview mirrors. The LED in the switch will light up to indicate
that the heating function is engaged. See page 40
for additional information on this function.
CAUTION:
Never use ice scrapers made of metal as they can easily scratch the mirror surface.
Recirculation
Recirculation can be used to shut out stale air, exhaust, etc. from the passenger compartment. The air in the passenger
compartment is then recirculated, i. e. no air from outside the car is taken into the car when this function is activated.
Recirculation (together with the air conditioning system) cools the passenger compartment more quickly in warm
weather.
If you allow the air in the car to recirculate, there is a risk of icing and fogging, especially in winter. The timer function
minimizes the risk of ice, misting and stale air.
Activate the timer function as follows:
Press for more that 3 seconds. The LED flashes for 5 seconds. The air recirculates in the car for 3-12

pg. 141 Replacing bulbs
Replacing bulbs
When replacing bulbs, keep the following points in mind:
• Never touch the glass of bulbs with your fingers. Grease and oils from your fingers vaporize in the heat and will
leave a deposit on the reflector, which will damage it.
• The optional Bi -Xenon headlight bulbs contain trace amounts of mercury. These bulbs should always be disposed of
by an authorized Volvo retailer.
• Certain bulbs not listed here should only be replaced by an authorized Volvo service technician.
ProCarManuals.com

Replacing bulbs at the front of the vehicle
All front bulbs (except the optional front fog lights) are replaced from the engine compartment.
WARNING!
Bi -Xenon headlights (option) - due to the high voltage used by these headlights, these bulbs should only be replaced
by an authorized Volvo service technician.

Location of the bulbs in the headlight housing
*
1. Side marker light
2. Turn signal
3. Low beam headlight/Parking light
4. High beam headlight
Certain models may have a plastic tube that may hinder access to the bulbs. This tube can be broken off and discarded.
