Safety mode
Safety mode is a feature that is triggered after a
collision if there is potential damage to an impor-
tant function in the vehicle, such as the fuel
lines, sensors for one of the safety systems, the
brake system, etc.
If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, the
text
Safety mode See Owner's manual may
appear in the instrument panel along with the
warning symbol if the panel is undamaged and
the vehicle's electrical system is intact. The mes-
sage indicates that one or more of the vehicle's
functions may be reduced.
WARNING
Never attempt to restart the vehicle if you
smell fuel fumes when the message
Safety
mode See Owner's manual is displayed in
the instrument panel. Leave the vehicle imme-
diately.
If safety mode has been set, it may be possible to
reset the system in order to start and move the
vehicle a short distance, for example, if it is block-
ing traffic.
WARNING
Never attempt to perform repairs or reset
electrical components on your own after the
vehicle has been in safety mode. This could
result in injury or prevent the vehicle from
functioning properly. Volvo recommends hav-
ing the vehicle inspected and reset to normal
operating status by an authorized Volvo work-
shop after
Safety mode See Owner's
manual has been displayed.
WARNING
When the vehicle is in safety mode, it should
not be towed behind another vehicle. It should
be towed from the site on a tow truck. Volvo
recommends towing the vehicle directly to an
authorized Volvo workshop.
