Points to keep in mind•
Before you operate your vehicle for the first
time, please familiarize yourself with the
new-engine oil consumption information
see page 191. You should also be familiar
with the information in chapters one, two
and eight of this manual.
•
Information contained in the balance of the
manual is extremely useful and should be
read after operating the vehicle for the first
time.
•
The manual is structured so that it can be
used for reference. For this reason, it
should be kept in the vehicle for ready
access.
•
Do not export your Volvo to another coun-
try before investigating that country's
applicable safety and exhaust emission
requirements. In some cases it may be dif-
ficult or impossible to comply with these
requirements. Modifications to the emis-
sion control system(s) may render your
Volvo not certifiable for legal operation in
the U.S., Canada and other countries.

If the BRAKE and ABS warning lights come
on at the same time, this could indicate a
fault in the brake system.
1. Stop the vehicle in a suitable place and
switch off the engine.
2. Restart the engine.
3. If both warning lights go off, no further
action is required.
4. If both lights are still on after the engine has
been restarted, switch off the engine again
and check the brake fluid level (see
page 193 for the location of the brake fluid
reservoir).
5.
If the brake fluid level is above the MIN
mark, drive carefully to a trained and quali-
fied Volvo service technician and have the
brake system inspected.
WARNING
If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the
reservoir or if a "
Brake failure - Service
urgent
" message is displayed in the text
window:DO NOT DRIVE. Have the vehicle
towed to a trained and qualified Volvo serv-
ice technician and have the brake system
inspected.
PARK BRAKE - Parking brake appliedThis light will be on when the parking brake
(hand brake) is applied. The parking brake lever
is situated between the front seats. For addi-
tional information, see page 71.

If the light comes on while driving,
stop the vehicle and then stop the
engine immediately and check the
engine oil level, see page 191.
If the light stays on after restart, have the vehi-
cle 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.Generator warning light
If the light comes on while the
engine is running, have the charg-
ing system checked.
Rear fog light
This light indicates that the fog
light is on.
CHECK ENGINE - Malfunction indicator
lightOn-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII): As you drive,
a computer called "OBDII" monitors your vehi-
cle's engine, transmission, electrical and emis-
sion 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.
ACHECK ENGINE light may have many cau-
ses. Sometimes, you may not notice a change
in your vehicle's behavior. Even so, an uncor-
rected condition could hurt fuel economy,
emission cleanliness, and driveability.
Extended driving without correcting the cause
could even damage other components in your
vehicle.
Canadian models are equipped
with this warning light.
2On certain engines, the symbol for low oil pressure is not used. Instead, a text warning is provided in the information display.

NOTE
Some devices may require you to replace
this Programming Step 2 with procedures
noted in the “Gate Operator / Canadian Pro-
gramming” section. If the HomeLink indica-
tor light does not change to a rapidly
blinking light after performing these steps,
contact HomeLink at www.homelink.com.3.
Firmlypress, hold for five seconds and
release the programmed HomeLink but-
ton up to two separate times to activate the
door. If the door does not activate, press
and hold the just-trained HomeLink button
and observe the indicator light.
•If the indicator light stays on con-
stantly, programming is complete
and your device should activate when
the HomeLink button is pressed and
released.•If the indicator light blinks rapidly for
two seconds and then turns to a con-
stant light continue with “Program-
ming” steps 4-6 to complete the pro-
gramming of a rolling code equipped
device (most commonly a garage door
opener).
4. At the garage door opener receiver (motor-
head unit) in the garage, locate the “learn”
or “smart” button. This can usually befound where the hanging antenna wire is
attached to the motor-head unit.
5. Firmly press and release the “learn” or
“smart” button. (The name and color of the
button may vary by manufacturer.) There
are 30 seconds to initiate step 6.
6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold
for two seconds and release the pro-
grammed HomeLink button. Repeat the
“press/hold/release” sequence a second
time, and, depending on the brand of the
garage door opener (or other rolling code
equipped device), repeat this sequence a
third time to complete the programming
process.
HomeLink should now activate your rolling
code equipped device.
Gate Operator/Canadian ProgrammingCanadian radio-frequency laws require trans-
mitter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after sev-
eral seconds of transmission – which may not
be long enough for HomeLink to pick up the
signal during programming. Similar to this
Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are
designed to “time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficul-
ties programming a gate operator or garage
door opener by using the “Programming” pro-cedures,replace “Programming HomeLink”
step 2 with the following:
•
Continue to press and hold the HomeLink
button while you press and release -
every two seconds (“cycle”) your hand-
held transmitter until the HomeLink indica-
tor light changes from a slow to a rapidly
blinking light. Now you may release both
the HomeLink and hand-held transmitter
buttons.
Proceed with “Programming” step 3 to com-
plete.
Using HomeLinkTo operate, simply press and release the pro-
grammed HomeLink button. Activation will
now occur for the trained device (i.e., garage
door opener, gate operator, security system,
entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.). For
convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the
device may also be used at any time. In the
event that there are still programming difficul-
ties or questions, contact HomeLink at:
www.homelink.com.

below), follow the step noted:•
Press and hold the two outer HomeLink
buttons until the indicator light begins to
flash-after 10 seconds. Release both but-
tons. Do not hold for longer that 20 sec-
onds. HomeLink is now in the train (or
learning) mode and can be programmed at
any time beginning with “Programming” -
step 1.
Reprogramming a Single HomeLink
ButtonTo program a device to HomeLink using a
HomeLink button previously trained, follow
these steps:
1. Press and hold the desired HomeLink but-
ton.DO NOT release the button.
2. The indicator light will begin to flash after
20 seconds. Without releasing the Home-
Link button, proceed with “Programming”
- step 1.

Timer mode activation: (vehicles with the
Interior Air Quality system have no timer
mode) Press and hold the recirculation but-
ton for at least 3 seconds to activate a
recirculation timer mode. The amber LED
in the recirculation button will flash 5 times
to show that the timer mode is being acti-
vated. In timer mode, each time the recir-
culation button is pressed, the climate
control system will recirculate the air in the
passenger compartment for 5-12 minutes,
depending on the outside air temperature,
and then revert back to fresh air.
•
Timer mode deactivation: Press and hold
the recirculation button for 3 seconds. The
amber LED in the recirculation button will
illuminate steadily for 5 seconds to show a
return to "normal" mode.
•
In normal mode, when the recirculation
button is pressed, the climate control sys-
tem will recirculate the air in the passenger
compartment until the recirculation button
is pressed again.
•
Timer mode memory: If the vehicle is
turned off while timer mode is active, timer
mode will still be active when the vehicle is
restarted.
Interior air quality sensor (option)
Some vehicles are equipped
with a multifilter and air quality
sensor. The filter separates
gases and particles, thereby
reducing the amounts of odors
and contaminants entering the
vehicle. The air quality sensor detects
increased levels of contaminants in the outside
air. When the air quality sensor detects conta-
minated outside air, the air intake closes and
the air inside the passenger compartment is
recirculated, i.e. no outside air enters the vehi-
cle. The filter also cleans recirculated passen-
ger compartment air.
MANAUTWhen the ECC system is in the AUTO mode,
the green LED in the button will be on.Operation±

activated.
Keep in mind the following•
Make it a rule to have the air quality sensor
activated at all times.
•
Recirculation is limited in cold climates to
avoid fogging.
•
If window fogging occurs, you should
deactivate the air quality sensor.
•
If fogging occurs, use the defroster func-
tions for the windshield, side windows and
rear window, see page 66.
The filter should be changed at the intervals
recommended in the service schedule. How-
ever, if the vehicle is used in a severely conta-
minated environment, it may be necessary to
change the filter more frequently.
