Warning symbols in the driver display The warning symbols alert the driver that an important function is activated or that a seriousfault or condition exists.
WARNING
If the brake fluid is below the MIN level in the
brake fluid reservoir, do not drive further before topping up the brake fluid. The loss of brake fluid must be investigated by a workshop. Volvo recommends contactingan authorised Volvo workshop.
WARNING
If the BRAKE and ABS symbols are lit at the same time, there is a risk that the rear end willskid during heavy braking.
Symbol Specification
Warning The red warning symbol illuminates when a fault has been indicatedwhich could affect the safetyand/or driveability of the car. Anexplanatory text is shown on thedriver display at the same time. Thewarning symbol can also illuminatein conjunction with other symbols.
Seatbelt reminder This symbol flashes if someone in a front seat has not put on theirseatbelt or if someone in a rearseat has taken off their seatbelt.
Airbags If the symbol remains illuminated or illuminates while driving, a fault hasbeen detected in one of the car'ssafety systems. Read the messagein the driver display. Volvo recom-mends that an authorised Volvoworkshop is contacted.
Symbol Specification
Fault in brake system If this symbol illuminates, the brake fluid level may be too low. Visit thenearest authorised workshop tohave the brake fluid level checkedand rectified.
Parking brake applied This symbol illuminates with a con- stant glow when the parking brakeis applied. A flashing symbol means that a fault has arisen. Read the messagein the driver display.

STARTING AND DRIVING
407
•
Brake now and again to remove any layer of salt. Make sure that other road users are notput at risk by the braking.
• Gently depress the brake pedal after finish-ing driving and before starting your next trip.
MaintenanceTo keep the car as safe and reliable as possible,follow the Volvo service intervals as specified inthe Service and Warranty Booklet. New and replaced brake linings and brake discs do not provide optimal braking effect until theyhave been "worn in" a few hundred kilometres.Compensate for the reduced braking effect bydepressing the brake pedal harder. Volvo recom-mends only fitting brake linings that are approvedfor your Volvo.
IMPORTANT
The wear on the brake system's components must be checked regularly. Contact a workshop for information about the procedure or engage a workshop to carry outthe inspection - an authorised Volvo work-shop is recommended.
