4. Oil pressure warning light1
If the light comes on while driving, stop the car, stop the engine immediately, and check the engine oil level. If the oil
level is normal and the light stays on after restart, have the vehicle towed to the nearest trained and qualified Volvo
service technician. After hard driving, the light may come on occasionally when the engine is idling. This is normal,
provided it goes off when the engine speed is increased.
5. Seat belt reminder
This symbol (and the seat belt reminder light above the rear view mirror) will light up if either front seat occupant has not
buckled his/her seat belt. If the vehicle is not moving, the symbols will go out after approximately 6 seconds.
6. Generator warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is running, have the charging system checked by an authorized Volvo workshop.
1On certain engines, this symbol is not used to indicate low oil pressure. Instead, a text warning is provided in the information display, see also page
203.
