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. 277) 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. 286) 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. 116) 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. 320) 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.

Trip computer – Supplementary information
General information for both Analog and Digital trip computer functions.
Average fuel consumptionFuel consumption since the last time this func- tion was reset.
Average speedThe vehicle's average speed since the last timethis function was reset.
Current fuel consumptionCurrent fuel consumption is calculated approxi-mately once a second. When the vehicle is mov-ing at low speed, fuel consumption is displayedper unit of time. At higher speeds, it is displayedin terms of distance. Miles or kilometers can be displayed, see the heading "Changing units".
Distance to emptyThis function shows the approximate distancethat can be driven on the fuel remaining in the tank. When
Distance to empty shows "----",
there is very little useable fuel remaining in that tank; refuel as soon as possible. The calculationis based on average fuel consumption during thelast 20 miles (30 km) of driving and the amountof fuel remaining in the tank (the accuracy of thisfigure may vary if your driving style changes). An economical driving style will generally increasethis distance. See Economical driving (p. 291) for information about driving economically.
Digital speed display
*Speed is expressed in the unit not used by theinstrument panel's speedometer e.g., if the nor-mal speedometer is in mph, the trip computer willdisplay in the speed in km/h and vice versa.
