INTRODUCTION

Volvo and the environment Volvo is committed to the well being of its cus- tomers. As a natural part of this commitment, wecare about the environment in which we all live.Concern for the environment means an everydayinvolvement in reducing our environmentalimpact.
Volvo's environmental activities are based on a holistic view, which means we consider the over-all environmental impact of a product throughoutits complete life cycle. In this context, design, pro-duction, product use, and recycling are all impor-tant considerations. In production, Volvo haspartly or completely phased out several chemicalsincluding CFCs, lead chromates, asbestos, andcadmium; and reduced the number of chemicalsused in our plants 50% since 1991. Volvo was the first in the world to introduce into production a three-way catalytic converter with aLambda sond, now called the heated oxygen sen-sor, in 1976. The current version of this highlyefficient system reduces emissions of harmfulsubstances (CO, HC, NOx) from the exhaust pipeby approximately 95 – 99% and the search toeliminate the remaining emissions continues.Volvo is the only automobile manufacturer tooffer CFC-free retrofit kits for the air conditioningsystem of all models as far back as the 1975model 240. Advanced electronic engine controlsand cleaner fuels are bringing us closer to ourgoal. In addition to continuous environmentalrefinement of conventional gasoline-poweredinternal combustion engines, Volvo is activelylooking at advanced technology alternative-fuelvehicles. When you drive a Volvo, you become our partner in the work to lessen the car's impact on theenvironment. To reduce your vehicle's environ-mental impact, you can:
• Maintain proper air pressure in your tires.Tests have shown decreased fuel economywith improperly inflated tires.
• Follow the recommended maintenanceschedule in your Warranty and ServiceRecords Information booklet.
• Drive at a constant speed whenever possible.
• See a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician as soon as possible for inspectionif the check engine (malfunction indicator)light illuminates, or stays on after the vehiclehas started.
• Properly dispose of any vehicle-related wastesuch as used motor oil, used batteries, brakepads, etc.
• When cleaning your vehicle, please use gen-uine Volvo car care products. All Volvo carcare products are formulated to be environ-mentally friendly.

Malfunction Indicator Light
As you drive, a computer called On-Board Diag- nostics II (OBDII) monitors your vehicle's engine,transmission, electrical and emission systems. The malfunction indicator light will illuminate if the computer senses a condition that potentiallymay need correcting. When this happens, pleasehave your vehicle checked by a trained and quali-fied Volvo service technician as soon as possible. A malfunction indicator light may have many cau- ses. Sometimes, you may not notice a change inyour car's behavior. Even so, an uncorrected con-dition could hurt fuel economy, emission controls,and drivability. Extended driving without correct-ing the cause could even damage other compo-nents in your vehicle. This light may illuminate if the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine was running whilethe 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 the sys-tem 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 qualified Volvoservice technician for inspection, see Brakes –general (p. 264) for additional information.
Rear fog lights
This symbol indicates that the rear fog lights are on.
Stability system
This indicator symbol flashes when the stability system is actively working to stabilize the vehicle,see Stability system – introduction (p. 174) formore detailed information.
Stability system - Sport mode
This symbol illuminates to indicate that the stabil- ity system's
Sport mode has been activated to
help provide maximum tractive force, for example when driving with snow chains, or driving in deepsnow or loose sand.
Low fuel level
When this light comes on, the vehicle should be refueled as soon as possible. See Refueling –fuel requirements (p. 273) for information aboutfuel and refueling.
Information symbol
The information symbol lights up and a text mes- sage is displayed to provide the driver with nec-essary information about one of the vehicle's sys-tems. The message can be erased and the sym- bol can be turned off by pressing the OK button
(see Information display – menu controls (p. 115) for information) or this will take place automatically after a short time (the length oftime varies, depending on the function affected). The information symbol may also illuminate together with other symbols.

This symbol illuminates when the high beam headlights are on, or if the high beam flash func-tion is used.
Left turn signal indicator Right turn signal indicator
NOTE
•
Both turn signal indicators will flash when the hazard warning flashers are used.
• If either of these indicators flash fasterthan normal, the direction indicators arenot functioning properly.
Tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS)
*
This symbol illuminates to indicate that tire pres- sure in one or more tires is low, see Tire PressureMonitoring System (TPMS) – general information(p. 308) for detailed information.

Engine temperature
Engine overheating can result from low oil or coolant levels, towing or hard driving at high heatand altitude, or mechanical malfunction. Engineoverheating will be signaled with text and a redwarning triangle in the middle of the instrumentdisplay. The exact text will depend on the degree of overheating. It may range from
High engine
temp Reduce speed to High engine temp
Stop engine. If appropriate, other messages,
such as Coolant level low, Stop safely will
also be displayed. If your engine does overheat so that you must stop the engine, always allowthe engine to cool before attempting to check oiland coolant levels. See Engine compartment – coolant (p. 331) for more information.
Fault in brake system
If this symbol lights, the brake fluid level may be too low. Stop the vehicle in a safe place andcheck the level in the brake fluid reservoir, seeEngine compartment – brake fluid (p. 332). If the level in the reservoir is below MIN, the vehicle
should be transported to an authorized Volvo workshop to have the brake system checked. If the
and symbols come on at
the same time, there may be a fault in the brake force distribution system. 1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off
the engine.
2. Restart the engine.
• If both symbols extinguish, continue driving.
• If the symbols remain on, check the level inthe brake fluid reservoir, see Engine com-partment – brake fluid (p. 332). If the brakefluid level is normal but the symbols are stilllit, the vehicle can be driven, with great care,to an authorized Volvo workshop to have thebrake system checked.
• If the level in the reservoir is below
MIN, the
vehicle should be transported to an author-ized Volvo workshop to have the brake sys-tem checked.
WARNING
• If the fluid level is below the
MIN mark in
the reservoir or if a warning message is displayed in the text window: DO NOT
DRIVE . Have the vehicle towed to a
trained and qualified Volvo service techni- cian and have the brake system inspec-ted.
• If the
and symbols are
on at the same time, there is a risk of reduced vehicle stability.
Warning symbol
The red warning symbol lights up to indicate a problem related to safety and/or drivability. Amessage will also appear in the instrument panel.The symbol remains visible until the fault hasbeen rectified but the text message can be cleared with the OK button, see Information dis-
play – menu controls (p. 115). The warning sym- bol can also come on in conjunction with othersymbols. Action:
