Low oil pressure
If the light comes on while driving, stop the
vehicle, stop the engine immediately, and
check the engine oil level. Add oil if neces-
sary. If the oil level is normal and the light
stays on after restart, have the vehicle towed
to the nearest trained and qualified Volvo
service technician.
Parking brake applied
This symbol flashes while the brake is being
applied and then glows steadily when the
parking brake has been set.
See page 134 for more information about
using the parking brake.
Airbags – SRS
If this light comes on while the vehicle is
being driven, or remains on for longer than
approximately 10 seconds after the vehicle
has been started, the SRS system's diagnos-
tic functions have detected a fault in a seat
belt lock or pretensioner, a front airbag, side
impact airbag, and/or an inflatable curtain.
Have the system(s) inspected by a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician as
soon as possible.
See page 21 for more information about the
airbag system.
Seat belt reminder
This symbol comes on for approximately
6 seconds if the driver has not fastened his or
her seat belt.
Generator not charging
This symbol comes on during driving if a fault
has occurred in the electrical system. Contact
an authorized Volvo workshop.
Engine temperature
Engine overheating can result from low oil or
coolant levels, towing or hard driving at high
heat and altitude, or mechanical malfunction.
Engine overheating will be signaled with text
and a red warning triangle in the middle of the
instrument display. 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 appropri-
ate, 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 allow the engine to
cool before attempting to check oil and cool-
ant levels.
See page 338 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
and check the level in the brake fluid reser-
voir, see page 338. If the level in the reservoir
is below MIN, the vehicle should be transpor-
ted 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.
