4. Information display
The display presents information and warning messages, the ambient tempe\
rature, and the clock, etc. When the
ambient temperature is between 23° and 36°F (-5° and +2°C)\
, a snowflake symbol is shown in the display. This
symbol serves as a warning for possible slippery road surfaces. Please n\
ote that this symbol does not indicate a fault
with your car. At low speeds, or when the car is not moving, the tempera\
ture readings may be slightly higher than the
actual ambient temperature.
5. Information symbol
See the next pages for additional information.
6. Turn signal, right
7. Tachometer
The tachometer shows engine speed in thousands of revolutions per minute\
(rpm). Do not drive continuously with the
needle in the red area of the dial, which indicates maximum allowable en\
gine rpm range. Instead, shift to a higher
gear or slow the vehicle down. The engine management system will automat\
ically prevent excessively high engines
speeds. This will be noticeable as a pronounced unevenness in engine spe\
ed.
8. Indicator and warning symbols
9. Fuel gauge

odometers, optional rain sensor, and cruise
control.

The gauge indicates the temperature of the engine cooling system. If the\
temperature is abnormally high and the
needle enters the red zone, a message is shown in the display. Bear in m\
ind that auxiliary lamps in front of the air
intake reduce the cooling capacity at high outside temperatures and high\
engine loads.
15.Indicator and warning symbols

The indicator and warning symbols
1 light up when you turn the ignition key to the driving position (posit\
ion II)
before starting. This shows that the symbols are functioning.

When the engine starts, all symbols go out. If the engine is not started\
within 5 seconds, all of the symbols except
CHECK ENGINE and will go out. Certain symbols may not have their functio\
ns illustrated, depending on the car's
equipment.
The PARK BRAKE symbol will not go out until the parking brake has been r\
eleased.
Symbols in the center of the instrument panel
Warning symbol
The red warning symbol lights up to indicate a fault that could affect t\
he car's drivability. A text explaining the nature
of the fault will also be shown in the information display. The symbol a\
nd accompanying text will remain on until the

ith other indicator or warning symbols.
1On certain engines, the symbol for low oil pressure is not used. Instead\
, a text warning is provided in the information display,

1. Malfunction indicator light

As you drive, a computer called On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII) monito\
rs 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 trained and qualifi\
ed Volvo service technician as soon as
possible.
A CHECK ENGINE light may have many causes. Sometimes, you may not notice a change in y\
our car's behavior.
Even so, an uncorrected condition could hurt fuel economy, emission cont\
rols, and drivability. Extended driving
without correcting the cause could even damage other components in your \
car.
NOTE
Canadian models are equipped with the second
symbol.
2. 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).
