onds if the driver has not fastened his or her
seat belt.
Generator not charging
This symbol comes on during driving if a fault
has occurred in the electrical system. Contact

Engine temperatureEngine overheating can result from low oil or
coolant levels, towing or hard driving at high
heat and altitude, or mechanical malfunction.
Engine overheating will be signaled with text
and a red warning triangle in the middle of the
instrument display. The exact text will depend
on the degree of overheating. It may range from
High engine temp Reduce speed to High
engine temp Stop engine. If appropriate,
other messages, such as Coolant level low,
Stop safely will also be displayed. If your
engine does overheat so that you must stop the
engine, always allow the engine to cool before
attempting to check oil and coolant levels.
See page 328 for more information.
Fault in brake system
If this symbol lights, the brake fluid level may
be too low. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and
check the level in the brake fluid reservoir, see
page 328. If the level in the reservoir is belowMIN, the vehicle should be transported to an
authorized Volvo workshop to have the brake
system checked.
Canadian models are equipped with this
symbol.
If the
and symbols come on at the
same time, there may be a fault in the brake
force distribution system.
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off
the engine.
2. Restart the engine.
•If both symbols extinguish, continue driv-
ing.
•If the symbols remain on, check the level in
the brake fluid reservoir, see page 328. If
the brake fluid level is normal but the sym-
bols are still lit, the vehicle can be driven,
with great care, to an authorized Volvo
workshop to have the brake system
checked.
•If the level in the reservoir is below MIN, the
vehicle should be transported to an author-
ized Volvo workshop to have the brake
system checked.
WARNING
•If the fluid level is below the MIN mark
in the reservoir or if a warning message
is displayed in the text window: DO
NOT DRIVE. Have the vehicle towed to
a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician and have the brake system
inspected.
•If the ABS and Brake system lights are
on at the same time, there is a risk of
reduced vehicle stability.

problem related to safety and/or drivability. A
message will also appear in the main instru-
ments panel's display. The symbol remains
visible until the fault has been rectified but the
text message can be cleared with the OK but-
ton, see page 189. The warning symbol can
also come on in conjunction with other sym-
bols.

Active high beams – AHB*AHB is a feature that uses a camera at the
upper edge of the windshield to detect the
headlights of oncoming vehicles or the tail-
lights of a vehicle directly ahead. When this
happens, the headlights will automatically
switch from high beams to low beams. When
the camera no longer detects the headlights/
taillights of other vehicles, your headlights will
switch back to high beams after several sec-
onds.
To activate this feature, turn the light switch to
the
position. Activation will occur if the
engine has been running for at least
20 seconds and the vehicle's speed is at least
12 mph (20 km/h).
Light switch in the AUTO position
Activate/deactivate AHB by pulling the left
steering wheel lever rearward (toward the
steering wheel) as far as possible and releasing
it. If AHB is deactivated while the high beams
are on, the headlights will switch to low beams.
When AHB is activated, the symbol
will illuminate in the instrument panel. The high
beam indicator (
) in the instrument panel
will also illuminate when the high beams are on.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the cam-
era free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
•Do not mount or in any way attach any-
thing on the windshield that could
obstruct the camera.
If the symbol illuminates in the instru-
ment panel and
AHB unavailable is displayed,
switching between high and low beams will
have to be done manually. The light switch can
remain in the AUTO position. The same applies
if
Windscreen Sensors blocked is displayed
and the
symbol is displayed. The
symbol will go out when these mes-
sages are displayed.
AHB may be temporarily unavailable (e.g., in
heavy fog or rain). When AHB becomes active
again or if the sensors in the windshield are no
longer obscured, the messages will disappear
and the
symbol will illuminate.

CAUTION
In the following situations, it may be neces-
sary to switch between high and low beams
manually:
•In heavy fog or rain
•In blowing snow or slush
•In bright moonlight
•In freezing rain
•In areas with dim street lighting
•When oncoming vehicles have dim front
lighting
•If there are pedestrians on or near the
road
•If there are reflective objects, such as
signs, near the road
•When oncoming vehicles' lights are
obscured by e.g., fences, bushes, etc.
•When there are vehicles on connecting
roads
•At the top of hills or in dips in the road
•In sharp curves
See page164 for more information about the
camera's limitations.
Tunnel detection (standard on models
with a rain sensor)
The optional rain sensor reacts to the change
in lighting conditions when, for example, the
vehicle is driven into a tunnel. If the daytime
running lights have been deactivated, tunnel
detection will activate the low beam headlights
while the vehicle is in the tunnel. The low
beams will be switched off approx.
20 seconds after the vehicle leaves the tunnel.
The rain sensor does not have to be activated
for tunnel detection to function.
Active Bending Lights (ABL)*
Headlight pattern with the Active Bending Light
function deactivated (left) and activated (right)
When this function is activated, the headlight
beams adjust laterally to help light up a curve
according to movements of the steering wheel
(see the right-pointing beam in the illustration).
ABL is activated automatically
1 when the
engine is started.
The function can be deactivated/reactivated in
the MY CAR menu system under My XC60

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.103
The rain sensor is automatically deactivated
when the key is removed from the ignition slot
or five minutes after the ignition has been
switched off.
CAUTION
The rain sensor should be deactivated when
washing the car in an automatic car wash,
etc. If the rain sensor function is left on, the
wipers will start inadvertently in the car
wash and could be damaged.
Windshield washing
Washing function
Move the lever toward the steering wheel to
start the windshield and headlight washers.
After the lever is released the wipers make sev-
eral extra sweeps.
Heated washer nozzles*The washer nozzles are heated automatically
in cold weather to help prevent the washer fluid
from freezing.
High-pressure headlight washing*High-pressure headlight washing consumes a
large quantity of washer fluid. To save fluid, the
headlights are washed using two alternatives:
•Low/high beam headlights on. The head-
lights will be washed the first time the wind-
shield is washed. Thereafter, the head-
lights will only be washed once for every
five times the windshield is washed within
a 10-minute period.
•Parking lights on. Optional Active Bend-
ing Lights will be washed once for every
five times the windshield is washed. Nor-
mal halogen headlights will not be washed.
CAUTION
•Use ample washer fluid when washing
the windshield. The windshield should
be thoroughly wet when the wipers are
in operation.
•When approx. 1 US quart (1 liter) of
washer fluid remains in the reservoir,
the headlights will no longer be washed.
A text message will also be displayed to
remind the driver to fill the washer fluid
reservoir.
Tailgate wiper/washer
Move the lever forward to start the tailgate washer.
