ABL faultThe symbol illuminates if a fault has arisen in the ABL function (Active Bending Lights).
Emissions systemIf the symbol illuminates after the engine hasbeen started then it may be due to a fault inthe car's emissions system. Drive to a work-shop for checking. Volvo recommends thatyou seek assistance from an authorised Volvoworkshop.
ABS faultIf this symbol illuminates then the system isnot working. The car's regular brake systemcontinues to work, but without the ABS func-tion.
1. Stop the car in a safe place and turn off
the engine. 2. Restart the engine.
3. If the symbol remains illuminated, drive to
a workshop to have the ABS system checked. Volvo recommends that youseek assistance from an authorised Volvoworkshop.
Rear fog lamp onThis symbol illuminates when the rear foglamp is switched on.
Stability systemA flashing symbol indicates that the stabilitysystem is operating. If the symbol illuminateswith constant glow then there is a fault in thesystem.
Stability system, sport modeSport mode allows for a more active drivingexperience. The system then detects whetherthe accelerator pedal, steering wheel move-ments and cornering are more active than innormal driving and then allows controlledskidding of the rear section up to a certainlevel before it intervenes and stabilises thecar.
Engine preheater (diesel)This symbol illuminates during engine pre-heating. Preheating mostly takes place due tolow temperature.
Low level in fuel tankWhen the symbol illuminates the level in thefuel tank is low, refuel as soon as possible.

A Fitted in or under the front bumper.
Volvo recommends that
mode is used
when the car is being driven, as long as traffic situations or weather conditions are unfavour-able for the active high beam function*.
Instrument lightingDifferent display and instrument lighting isswitched on depending on key position; seeKey positions - functions at different levels (p.70). The display lighting is automatically subdued in darkness - the sensitivity is set with thethumbwheel. The intensity of the instrument lighting is adjusted with the thumbwheel.
Headlamp levellingThe load in the car changes the vertical align-ment of the headlamp beam, which coulddazzle oncoming motorists. Avoid this byadjusting the height of the beam. Lower thebeam if the car is heavily laden. 1. Leave the engine running, or have the
car's electrical system in key position I.
2. Roll the thumbwheel up/down to raise/ lower beam alignment.

Position/parking lamps
Position/parking lamps are switched on with the headlamp control's knob.
Knob for headlamp control in the position for position/parking lamps.
Turn the knob to the position for
(num-
ber plate lighting is switched on at the same time). If the car's electrical system is in key position II or the engine is running then the daytime
running lights switch on instead of the frontposition/parking lamps. When it is dark outside and the tailgate is opened the rear position/parking lamps illumi-nate to alert traffic behind. This takes placeirrespective of what position the knob is in orwhat key position the car's electrical systemis in.

Daytime running lights
With the knob for headlamp control in posi- tion
and the car's electrical system in
key position II or the engine running, the day-
time running lights are activated automatically in good light conditions.
Daytime running lights during the day.
DRL
Knob for headlamp control in AUTO position.
With the knob for headlamp control in
position the daytime running lights (Daytime Running Lights - DRL) are activated automati-cally when the car is driven during the day. Alight sensor on the top of the instrumentpanel changes from daytime running lights todipped beam at twilight or when daylightbecomes too weak. Switching to dippedbeam also takes place if the windscreen wip-ers or rear fog lamps are activated.

WARNING
This system help to save energy - it cannot determine in all situations when daylight istoo weak or sufficiently strong, e.g. in mistand rain. The driver is always responsible for ensur- ing that the car is driven with its lights in acorrect state and in accordance with appli-cable traffic regulations.
Tunnel detection*
In markets without automatic dipped beam, tunnel detection activates dipped beam whendriving into a tunnel. Dipped beam is deacti-vated approx. 20 seconds after the car hasbeen driven out of the tunnel. The tunnel detection function is available in cars with rain sensor*. The sensor detects theentrance to a tunnel and resets the lightingfrom daytime running lights to dipped beam.Approx. 20 seconds after the car has left thetunnel, the lighting returns to daytime runninglights. If the car is driven into another tunnelwithin this time period then dipped beam iskept switched on. This avoids repeatedchanges to the car's light settings. Note that the headlamp control's knob must remain in
position for tunnel detection
to work.

Active high beam*
The Active High Beam function detects the headlamp beams of oncoming traffic or therear lights of vehicles in front, and switchesthe lighting from main beam to dipped beam.Xenon headlamps only dim the portion of thelight beam that points directly to the vehicle.The lighting returns to main beam when theincoming light has stopped.
Active high beam - AHBActive high beam (Active High Beam - AHB) isa function which uses a camera sensor at thetop edge of the windscreen to detect theheadlamp beams of oncoming traffic or therear lights of vehicles in front, and thenswitches from main beam to dipped beam.The function can also take streetlights intoaccount. Car with halogen headlamps The lighting returns to main beam about a second after the camera sensor no longerdetects the headlamp beams from oncomingtraffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front. Car with Xenon headlamps Unlike what happens during conventional dimming, the light beam continues with mainbeam on both sides of oncoming traffic orvehicles ahead - only the part of the light
