Infant seats
WARNING
A child seat should never be used in the front passenger seat of any vehicle with a front passenger airbag - not even
if the "Passenger airbag off" symbol near the rear-view mirror is illuminated (on vehicles equipped with Occupant
Weight Sensor). If the severity of an accident were to cause the airbag to inflate, this could lead to serious injury or
death to a child seated in this position.

NOTE
The locking retractor will automatically release when the seat belt is unbuckled and allowed to retract fully.
6. Push and pull the infant seat to ensure that it is held securely in place by the seat belt.
WARNING
It should not be possible to move the child restraint more than 1 in. (2.5 cm) in any direction.

1. Malfunction indicator light
As you drive, a computer called On-Board Diagnostics II (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 vehicle checked by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician 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 controls, 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).
The vehicle should be driven to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for inspection. See page 148
for
additional information.
NOTE
Canadian models are equipped with the second symbol.
3. Rear fog light
This symbol indicates that the rear fog light (located in the driver's side taillight cluster) is on.
4. Stability system DSTC
This indicator symbol flashes when the DSTC (Dynamic Stability and Traction control system) is actively working to

stabilize the car. See page 150 for more detailed information.
5. Not in use
6. Fuel level warning light
When this light comes on, there are approximately 2.1 US gallons (8 liters) of fuel remaining in the tank.

Instrument and warning symbols
Symbols - right side
1. Turn signal indicator for 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, one of the turn signals on the trailer or on the vehicle are not functioning properly.
2. Parking brake applied
This light is on when the parking brake (hand brake) is applied. The parking brake lever is situated between the front
seats. See page 69
for more information.
NOTE
Canadian models are equipped with the second symbol.
3. SRS system warning light
If this light comes on while the vehicle is being driven, or remains on for longer than approximately 10 seconds after the
vehicle has been started, the SRS system's diagnostic functions have detected a fault in a seat belt lock or pretensioner, a
front airbag, side impact airbag, and/or an inflatable curtain. Have the system(s) inspected by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician as soon as possible.
