Indicator symbols in the driver display The indicator symbols alert the driver that a func- tion is activated, that a system is operating, orthat a fault or abnormal condition exists.
SymbolSpecification
Information, read display text When one of the car's systems does not behave as intended, thisinformation symbol illuminates anda text appears on the driver display.The information symbol can alsoilluminate in conjunction with othersymbols.
Fault in brake system The symbol lights up when there is a fault in the parking brake.
ABS fault If this symbol illuminates then the system is not working. The car'sregular brake system continues towork, but without the ABS function.
SymbolSpecification
Automatic brake on The symbol illuminates when the function is activated and the footbrake or parking brake is acting.The brake holds the car stationarywhen it has stopped.
Tyre pressure system The symbol illuminates when tyre pressure is too low. If there is afault in the tyre pressure system,the symbol will flash for approx. 1minute and then illuminate with aconstant glow. This may bebecause the system cannot detector warn of low tyre pressure asintended.
Emissions system If the symbol illuminates after the engine has been started then itmay be due to a fault in the car'semissions system. Drive to a work-shop for checking. Volvo recom-mends that an authorised Volvoworkshop is contacted.
Symbol Specification
Left and right-hand direction indicator The symbols flash when the direc- tion indicators are used.
Position lamps The symbol lights up when the position lamps are switched on.
Fault in the headlamp system The symbol illuminates if a fault has occurred in the ABL function(Active Bending Lights) or ifanother fault has occurred in theheadlamp system.
Active main beam on The symbol lights up blue when the automatic main beam is on.
Active main beam off The symbol lights up white when the automatic main beam is off.

SymbolSpecification
Low oil pressure If this symbol illuminates during driving then the engine's oil pres-sure is too low. Stop the engineimmediately and check the engineoil level, top up if necessary. If thesymbol illuminates and the oil levelis normal, contact a workshop.Volvo recommends that an author-ised Volvo workshop is contacted.
Alternator not charging This symbol illuminates during driv- ing if a fault has occurred in theelectrical system. Visit a workshop.Volvo recommends that an author-ised Volvo workshop is contacted.
Reminder for doors, bonnet, tailgate and fuel filler flap
If the bonnet, tailgate, fuel filler flap or door is not closed properly then the information or warningsymbol and graphics illuminate in the driver dis-play.

Outside temperature gauge
The outside temperature gauge is shown in the driver display.
A sensor detects the temperature outside of the car.
Outside temperature gauge location in the 12-inch and 8-inch driver display.
If the car has been stationary, the gauge may dis- play a temperature reading that is too high. When the outside temperature is within the range +2°C to -5°C, a snowflake symbol is shown in thedriver display as a warning for potentially slipperyconditions. The snowflake symbol is also illumi-nated briefly in the head-up display, if the car isequipped with one.

Overloading the starter battery
The electrical functions in the car load the starter battery to varying degrees. Avoid using the igni-tion position II when the car is switched off.
Instead, use ignition position I - which uses less
power.
Also, be aware of different accessories that load the electrical system. Do not use functions whichuse a lot of power when the car is switched off.Examples of such functions are:
• ventilation fan
• headlamps
• windscreen wiper
• audio system (high volume).
If the starter battery voltage is low, the message
12 V Battery Low charge, will soon enter
power save mode is shown in the driver display.
The energy-saving function then shuts down cer- tain functions or reduces certain functions suchas the ventilation fan and/or audio system.
–In which case, charge the starter battery by starting the car and then running it for atleast 15 minutes - starter battery charging ismore effective during driving than runningthe engine at idling speed while stationary.

Preparations for a long trip
Before a driving holiday or some other type of long journey, it is important to check the car'sfunctions and equipment particularly carefully.
Check that:
• the engine is working normally and that fuel consumption is normal
• there are no leaks (fuel, oil or other fluid)
• all bulbs are working
• the tyres have sufficient tread depth andpressure
• a warning triangle and high-visibility vest arelocated in the car - legally required in certaincountries
• the wiper blades are in good condition.

Car status The car's general status can be shown in the centre display along with the opportunity to bookservice.
The Car status app is started
from app view in the centre dis- play and has three tabs:
•Messages - saved status messages
•
Status - check of tyre pressure and engine
oil level
•
Appointments - booking of service and
repair work.

Book service and repair 1
Manage service, repair and booking information directly from your online car. The information is handled in the
Car statusapp, which is opened from the app view in the centre display.
This service provides, for certain markets, a con- venient way to book service and workshop visitsdirectly from your car. Vehicle data is sent to yourdealer, who can prepare the workshop visit. Thedealer will get back to you with a booking sug-gestion. For certain markets, the system willremind you of a scheduled appointment time as it approaches and the navigation system 2
can also
guide you to the workshop when the time comes. You also have information on your dealer availa-ble in the car and can contact your workshop atany time.
Before the service can be used
Volvo ID
• Create a Volvo ID, see section "Volvo ID".
• Register the Volvo ID for your car, see sec- tion "Volvo ID". If a Volvo ID already exists,use the same e-mail address that was usedwhen the Volvo ID was created.

Engine oil
An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service intervals can beapplied.
Volvo recommends:
IMPORTANT
In order to fulfil the requirements for the engine's service intervals all engines are filledwith a specially adapted synthetic engine oilat the factory. The choice of oil has beenmade very carefully with regard to service life,starting characteristics, fuel consumption andenvironmental impact. An approved engine oil must be used in order that the recommended service intervals canbe applied. Only use a prescribed grade of oilfor both filling and oil change, otherwise thereis a risk of the service life, starting characte-ristics, fuel consumption and environmentalimpact of the car being affected. If engine oil of the prescribed grade and vis- cosity is not used, engine related componentsmay become damaged. Volvo Car Corporationdisclaims any liability for any such damage. Volvo recommends that oil changes are car- ried out at an authorised Volvo workshop.
Volvo uses different systems for warning of low/ high oil level or low oil pressure. Certain enginevariants have an oil pressure sensor, and then thedriver display's warning symbol for low oil pres- sure
is used. Other variants have an oil
level sensor, when the driver is informed via the driver display's warning symbol
and display texts. Certain variants have both systems. Contact a Volvo dealer for more information. Change the engine oil and oil filter in accordance with the intervals specified in the Service andWarranty Booklet. Using oil of a higher than specified grade is per- mitted. If the car is driven in adverse conditions,Volvo recommends using an oil of a higher gradethan the one specified.

NOTE
If the right conditions for measuring the oil level (time after engine shutdown, the car'sinclination, outside temperature, etc.) are not met, then the message
No value availablewill be shown in the centre display. This does not mean that there is something wrong in
the car's systems.

Topping up coolant
The coolant cools the internal combustion engine to the correct operating temperature. Theheat that is transferred from the engine to thecoolant can be used to heat the passenger com-partment.
When topping up the coolant, follow the instruc- tions on the packaging. Never top up with wateronly. The risk of freezing increases with both toolittle and too much coolant concentrate.
WARNING
Coolant can be very hot. If the coolant requires topping up when the engine is atoperating temperature, unscrew the expan-sion tank cap slowly to gently release theoverpressure.
Coolant expansion tank, left-hand drive car.
Screw off the cap in the plastic cover.
Screw off the cap on the expansion tank and top up with coolant. The coolant level must not exceed the yellow MAX mark inside the
expansion tank.
Reinstall the parts in reverse order.
