Eco Guide * and Power Meter *
Eco guide and Power guide are two gauges in the instrument panel that help improve drivingeconomy. The vehicle also stores driving-related statistics in the form of a bar graph, see Trip computer –Trip statistics (p. 118).
Introduction
To display or remove these functions from the instrument panel, select the "Eco" theme (seeInformation displays – introduction (p. 63)). Driving statistics are also stored and can be dis- played in the form of a bar chart (see Trip com-puter – Trip statistics (p. 118)).
Eco GuideThis gauge gives an indication of how economi-cally the vehicle is being driven.
Current (instantaneous) reading
Average
Current (instantaneous) reading
This is the current level of economical driving; the higher the reading, the more economically thevehicle is being driven. This value is calculated based on the vehicle's speed, engine speed (rpm), engine load andbrake use. The optimal speed range is between approxi- mately 30–50 mph (50–80 km/h), preferably atas low rpm as possible. The markers fall whenthe brake or accelerator pedal is pressed. If the current reading is very low, the red field in the gauge will illuminate after a slight delay, indi-cating low driving economy.
Average
The average reading changes gradually accord- ing to changes in the current reading to indicatehow economically the vehicle has been drivenrecently. The higher the average reading, themore economically the vehicle has been driven.
Power MeterThis gauge indicates the engine power that hasbeen utilized and the amount of power remaining.
Available power
Utilized power
Available power
The smaller, upper indicator shows the engine's available power 2
. The higher the reading on the
scale, the greater the amount of power remaining in the current gear.

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. 267) 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. 166) 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. 277) 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. 108) 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.
High beam indicator
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. 310) for detailed information.
Eco* function on
The symbol will illuminate when the Eco function is activated.
Start/stop *
The symbol illuminates when the engine has auto-stopped.

Location of the ambient temperature sensor, A: digital instrument panel *, B: analog instrument panel
NOTE
When the ambient temperature is between 23° and 36 °F (–5° and +2 °C), a snowflakesymbol will be displayed next to the tempera-ture. This symbol serves as a warning for pos-sible slippery road surfaces. Please note that this symbol does not indicate a fault with your
vehicle. At low speeds or when the vehicle is not mov- ing, the temperature readings may be slightlyhigher than the actual ambient temperature.

Programming the seat's memory
Three different seating and door mirror positions can be stored in the driver seat's memory. The following example explains how button (1) can be programmed. Buttons (2) and (3) are pro-grammed in the same way. To program (store) a seat and door mirror posi- tion in button (1):
1. Move the seat (and door mirrors) to the
desired positions using the seat and mirror adjustment controls.
2. Press and hold down the M (memory) button
(4).
3. With the memory button depressed, press button (1) briefly to store the current positionfor the seat/mirrors.
To move the seat and mirrors to the positionthat they were in when a button was pro-grammed:
–Press and hold down button (1) until the seat and mirrors stop moving.
NOTE
As a safety precaution, the seat will stop automatically if the button is released beforethe seat has reached the preset position.

Returning the seat/mirrors to the stored positions
To move the seat and door mirrors to the position stored in the remote key: 1.Unlock the driver's door with the same
remote key (the one used to lock the doors). For models equipped with the optional key-less drive, you must have the same remotekey in your possession.
2. Open the driver's door within 2 minutes. The driver's seat and door mirrors will automati- cally move to the position in which you left them(if the vehicle has been unlocked with one of theother keys and new seat/mirror adjustments havebeen made).
NOTE
• The seat will move to this position even if someone else has moved it to a different position and locked the vehicle with a
dif-
ferent remote key.
• This feature will work in the same way with all of the remote keys that you usewith your vehicle.
