Turn signal indicators – right/left
Text window – The text window displays information and warning messages.
Temperature gauge – The pointer should be approximately midway on the gaugewhen driving. Do not drive the vehicle if
the warning light is on. The text window
will provide you with additional informa-tion. If the engine temperature remainshigh, check coolant level – see page 224.
Trip odometer – The trip odometers are used for measuring shorter distances.The right-hand digit gives tenth of a mile/kilometer. Press the button for more than2 seconds to reset. Change between trip odometers 1 and 2 using one short presson the button. The display presents infor-mation and warning messages, the ambi-ent temperature, and the clock, etc.When the ambient temperature isbetween 23° and 36 °F (–5° and +2 °C), asnowflake symbol is shown in the display.This symbol serves as a warning for pos-sible slippery road surfaces. Please notethat this symbol does not indicate a faultwith your car. At low speeds, or when thecar is not moving, the temperature read-ings may be slightly higher than theactual ambient temperature.

High beam indicator
Tachometer – The tachometer shows engine speed in thousands of revolutionsper minute (rpm). Do not drive continu-ously with the needle in the red area ofthe dial, which indicates maximum allow-able engine rpm range. Instead, shift to ahigher gear or slow the vehicle down. Theengine management system will automat-ically prevent excessively high enginesspeeds. This will be noticeable as a pro-nounced unevenness in engine speed.

Rear fog lightThis light indicates that the fog light is on.
CHECK ENGINE Malfunction indicator light
On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII): As you drive, a computer called "OBDII" monitorsyour vehicle's engine, transmission, electricaland emission systems. The CHECK ENGINE
light will light up if the computer senses acondition that potentially may need correct-ing. When this happens, please have yourvehicle checked by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician as soon as possible. A CHECK ENGINE light may have many cau-
ses. Sometimes, you may not notice a change in your vehicle's behavior. Even so,an uncorrected condition could hurt fueleconomy, emission cleanliness, and driveabil-ity. Extended driving without correcting thecause could even damage other componentsin your vehicle.
Canadian models are equippedwith this symbol for the Malfunc-tion Indicator Light.
ABS (Anti-lock brake system)If the warning light comes on, there is a malfunction of the ABSsystem (the standard braking sys-tem will still function). The vehicleshould be driven to a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician for inspec-tion. See page 154 for additional information.
DSTC systemThe Dynamic Stability and Trac- tion Control system (DSTC) isexplained in greater detail onpage 158.
Tire pressure monitoring lightSee page 203 for more informa- tion on this function.
Turn signal indicator – trailer (certain models)
If you are towing a trailer, this light will flash simultaneously withthe turn signals on the trailer. Ifthe light does not flash when sig-naling, neither the trailer's turn
signals nor the vehicle's turn signals are func-tioning.

NOTE
Some devices may require you to replace this Programming Step 2 with proceduresnoted in the “Gate Operator / CanadianProgramming” section. If the HomeLinkindicator light does not change to a rapidlyblinking light after performing these steps,contact HomeLink at www.homelink.comor by phoning the hotline at1–800–355–3515.
3. Firmly press, 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 HomeLinkbutton 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 andreleased.
• If the indicator light blinks
rapidly for
two seconds and then turns to aconstant light continue with “Pro- gramming” steps 4-6 to complete the
programming of a rolling code equip- ped device (most commonly a garagedoor opener). 4. At the garage door opener receiver
(motor-head unit) in the garage, locate the “learn” or “smart” button. This canusually be found where the hangingantenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit.
5. Firmly press and release the “learn” or “smart” button. (The name and color ofthe 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 secondtime, and, depending on the brand of thegarage door opener (or other rolling codeequipped device), repeat this sequence athird time to complete the programmingprocess.
HomeLink should now activate your rollingcode 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 notbe long enough for HomeLink to pick up thesignal during programming. Similar to thisCanadian law, some U.S. gate operators aredesigned to “time-out” in the same manner. If you live in Canada or you are having diffi-culties programming a gate operator orgarage door opener by using the “Program-ming” procedures,
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 indi-cator light changes from a slow to a rap-idly blinking light. Now you may releaseboth the HomeLink and hand-held trans-mitter buttons.
Proceed with “Programming” step 3 to com- plete.
Using HomeLink
To operate, simply press and hold the pro- grammed HomeLink button until the traineddevice begins to operate (this may take sev-eral seconds). Activation will now occur forthe trained device (i.e., garage door opener,gate operator, security system, entry doorlock, home/office lighting, etc.). For conven-ience, the hand-held transmitter of the devicemay also be used at any time. In the eventthat there are still programming difficulties orquestions, contact HomeLink at:www.homelink.com or by phoning the hotlineat 1–800–355–3515.

05 Locks and alarm
Alarm
05
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.133
The alarm is automatically armed whenever you lock your vehicle. When armed, the alarm continuously moni- tors a number of points on the vehicle. Thefollowing conditions will set off the alarm: •
The hood is forced open.
• The tailgate is forced open.
• A door is forced open.
• The ignition switch is tampered with.
• If there is movement in the passenger compartment (if the vehicle is equippedwith the optional movement sensor).
• The vehicle is lifted or towed (if the vehi-cle is equipped with the optional inclina-tion sensor).
• The battery is disconnected (while thealarm is armed).
• The siren is disconnected when the alarmis disarmed.
Arming the alarm1. Press the
LOCK button on the remote
key.
2. Lock the vehicle using the key blade in the driver's door or press the central lock button on the driver's door with the dooropen.
One long flash of the turn signals will confirmthat the alarm is armed.
Movement sensor*In addition to triggering the alarm if there ismovement in the passenger compartment,currents of air may also affect the movementsensor. This means that locking the vehiclewith the windows or the moonroof open, orusing an accessory portable passenger com-partment heater, could trigger the alarm. To help avoid this, close the windows and moonroof before locking the vehicle. If a pas-senger compartment heater is used when thevehicle is locked, direct airflow from the heat-er's vent(s) so that it isn't directed upward inthe passenger compartment.
Disarming the alarmPress the UNLOCK button on the remote key
or unlock the doors with the key blade.
Turning off (stopping) the alarmIf the alarm is sounding, it can be stopped bypressing the UNLOCK button on the remote
key or by unlocking the driver's door with thekey blade.
Visual alarm signalThe visual alarm signal is given by flashing allturn signals and turning on the interior lightingfor approximately 5 minutes.
Audible alarm signalAn audible alarm signal is given by a batterypowered siren. One alarm cycle lasts for25 seconds.
"Panic" buttonIn an emergency situation, this feature can beused to attract attention. Activate the "panic" button by pressing the red button on the remote key ( see page 127for illustration) for at least 3 seconds or bypressing this button twice within 3 seconds.The turn signals will flash, and the vehicle'shorn will sound. The function can be turned off by pressing any of the buttons on the remote key or willstop automatically after 25 seconds. When abutton is pressed, there is a 5 second delaybefore the panic alarm is deactivated.
NOTE
This button will NOT unlock the vehicle.
LED alarm status signalsThe status of the alarm system is indicated by the red LED at the top of the dash: • LED off – the alarm is not armed
• LED flashes once per second – the alarm is armed
