Malfunction Indicator LightAs you drive, a computer called On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII) monitors your vehicle'sengine, transmission, electrical and emissionsystems. The malfunction indicator light will illuminate if the computer senses a condition that poten-tially may need correcting. When this hap-pens, please have your vehicle checked by atrained and qualified Volvo service technicianas soon as possible. A malfunction indicator light may have many causes. Sometimes, you may not notice achange in your car's behavior. Even so, anuncorrected condition could hurt fuel econ-omy, emission controls, and drivability.Extended driving without correcting the causecould even damage other components inyour vehicle. This light may illuminate if the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine was runningwhile the vehicle was refueled.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)If the warning light comes on, there may be a malfunction in the ABS system (the standardbraking system will still function). Check thesystem by:
1. Stopping in a safe place and switching off
the ignition.
2. Restart the engine. 3. If the warning light goes off, no further
action is required.
If the indicator light remains on, the vehicle should be driven to a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician for inspection, seeBrakes – general (p. 262) for additional infor-mation.
Rear fog lightsThis symbol indicates that the rear fog lights are on.
Stability systemThis indicator symbol flashes when the stabil- ity system is actively working to stabilize thevehicle, see Stability system – introduction(p. 162) for more detailed information.
Stability system - Sport modeThis symbol illuminates to indicate that the stability system's Sport mode has been acti-
vated to help provide maximum tractive force,for example when driving with snow chains,or driving in deep snow or loose sand.
Low fuel levelWhen this light comes on, the vehicle should be refueled as soon as possible. See Refuel-ing – fuel requirements (p. 273) for informa-tion about fuel and refueling.
Information symbolThe information symbol lights up and a text message is displayed to provide the driverwith necessary information about one of thevehicle's systems. The message can beerased and the symbol can be turned off by pressing the
OK button (see Information dis-
play – menu controls (p. 107) for information)or this will take place automatically after ashort time (the length of time varies, depend-ing on the function affected). The information symbol may also illuminate together with other symbols.
High beam indicatorThis symbol illuminates when the high beam headlights are on, or if the high beam flashfunction is used.
Left turn signal indicator
Right turn signal indicator
NOTE
• Both turn signal indicators will flash when the hazard warning flashers areused.
• If either of these indicators flash fasterthan normal, the direction indicatorsare not functioning properly.
Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS)*
This symbol illuminates to indicate that tire pressure in one or more tires is low, see TirePressure Monitoring System (TPMS) – generalinformation (p. 303) for detailed information.
Eco* function onThe symbol will illuminate when the Eco func- tion is activated.

Electrically heated* steering wheel
The steering wheel can be heated electrically.
Button for steering wheel heating
With the engine running, press this button once to begin warming the steering wheel(press again to switch off). The indicator lightin the button will illuminate when the functionis active. This function can also be started automati- cally (the setting can be activated/deactivatedin the MY CAR menu) if the vehicle is coldand the ambient temperature is belowapproximately 50° F (10° C).
Lighting panel
The lighting panel is used to control the day- time running lights, parking lights, etc., and toadjust the instrument panel lighting and "the-ater" lighting (p. 87).

Active high beams (AHB)*
AHB uses a camera at the upper edge of the windshield to detect the headlights of oncom-ing vehicles or the taillights of a vehicledirectly ahead. When this happens, the head-lights will automatically switch from highbeams to low beams. When the camera nolonger detects the headlights/taillights ofother vehicles, your headlights will switchback to high beams after several seconds. To activate AHB:
• Turn the headlight control to the
position.
The feature will begin functioning if the engine has been running for at least 20 seconds andthe vehicle's speed is at least 12 mph(20 km/h).
Headlight switch in the AUTO position Switch AHB on or off by pulling the left steer- ing wheel lever rearward (toward the steeringwheel) as far as possible and releasing it. IfAHB is switched off while the high beams areon, the headlights will change to low beams.
Models with an analog instrument panel
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.
Models with a digital instrument panel
When AHB is activated, will illuminate
as a white symbol in the instrument panel.
When the high beams are on, the symbol will change to blue.
NOTE
•Keep the windshield in front of the camera free of ice, snow, dirt, etc.
• Do not mount or in any way attachanything on the windshield that couldobstruct the camera.
If Active high beam Temporary
unavailable Switch manually is displayed in
the instrument panel, switching between high and low beams will have to be done man-ually. However, the light switch can remain in the
position. The same applies if
Windscreen Sensors blocked is displayed
and the
symbol is displayed. The symbol will go out when these messages are displayed. AHB may be temporarily unavailable (e.g., in heavy fog or rain). When AHB becomes activeagain or if the sensors in the windshield areno longer obscured, the messages will disap- pear and the
symbol will illuminate.
CAUTION
In the following situations, it may be nec- essary to switch between high and lowbeams manually:
• In heavy fog or rain
• In blowing snow or slush
• In bright moonlight
