The instrument panel displays information rela-
ted to the vehicle and driving. The instrument panel contains gauges, indicators
and monitoring and warning symbols. What is
shown in the instrument panel varies depending
on the equipment, settings and functions cur-
rently active.
The instrument panel is activated as soon as a
door is opened, i.e. in ignition mode 0. The panel
will power down after a short period of time if it is
not used. To reactivate it, do one of the following:
• Depress the brake pedal.
• Activate ignition mode I. •
Open one of the doors.
WARNING If the instrument panel is not functioning
properly, information about brakes, airbags or
other safety-related systems may not be dis-
played. The driver will then not be able to
check the status of the vehicle systems or
receive relevant warnings and information.
WARNING
If the instrument panel turns off, does not
activate when the ignition is switched on, or
part/all of the panel cannot be read, do not
drive the vehicle. Consult a workshop immedi-
ately. Volvo recommends an authorized Volvo
workshop.
