9 Tachometer
Indicates engine speed in thousands of rpm.
Do not drive for long with the needle in the red
section. The engine has an built-in function
preventing too high engine speed. When this
function operates, you may discern some
pulsation, which is normal.

The currently selected driving mode is
displayed here. If you use the Geartronic
function on the automatic transmission, the
currently selected gear will be displayed.
11 Ambient temperature indicator
This display indicates the air temperature
outside your car. A "snowflake" symbol in the
text window is displayed when the temperature
is in the range of 23 - 36° F (-5 - +2° C).

28
Indicator and warning lights
The indicator and warning lights described on pages 28 and 29 should never stay on when driving*
When the ignition key is turned, all of the warning lights in the lower
right-hand side of the instrument panel should go on to test the function
of the bulbs. If a light does not go off after the engine has started, thesystem indicated should be inspected.
NOTE: The parking brake reminder light will not go off until the
parking brake has been fully released.
Warning lamp in the
center of the instrument
panel
This lamp lights up red or yellow depending
on the severity of the fault that has been
detected.

possible in a suitable location and read the
message shown in the text window. The
symbol and accompanying text will remain on

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.

Trip computer controls and functions
The four* trip computer functions can be accessed by twisting control B
one step at a time in either direction. Twisting the control a fifth time**
returns you to the original function.The trip computer can be reset (current data will be erased from system
memory) by pressing RESET (button C).
1. Driving distance on current fuel reserve
This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the
fuel remaining in the tank. This calculation is based on average fuel
consumption during the last 12 miles (20 km) of driving and the amount
of fuel remaining in the tank when the reading was taken.
When the driving distance on current fuel reserve is less than 12 miles
(20 km), “----” will be displayed in the text window.
2. Average fuel consumption
This value indicates fuel consumption since the last time the trip
computer was reset (by pressing RESET, button C). When the engine is
switched off, information on fuel consumption is stored and remains in
system memory until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
3. Current fuel consumption
This value indicates the current fuel consumption, based on readings
taken once per second. When the car is not moving, “----” will be
displayed.
4. Average speed
This value indicates average speed since the last time the trip computer
was reset (by pressing RESET, button C). When the engine is switched
off, information on average speed is stored and remains in system
memory until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
5. Current speed in miles per hour (Canadian models only)
This function provides the driver with an instantaneous conversion of the
car’s current speed from km/h to mph.
