Seat belt reminder

This symbol lights up to indicate that the driver has not fastened his/ her seat belt.

Supplemental Restraint System (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

diagnostic 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.

BRAKE – Brake failure warning light

If the light comes on while driving or braking, stop immediately, open the hood and check the brake fluid level in the reservoir. see page 218.

Canadian models are equipped with this warning light.

If the BRAKE and ABS warning lights come on at the same time, this could indicate a fault in the brake system.

Stop the vehicle in a suitable place and switch off the engine.

Restart the engine.

If both warning lights go off, no further action is required.

If both lights are still on after the engine has been restarted, switch off the engine again and check the brake fluid level (see page 218 for the location of the brake fluid reservoir).

If the brake fluid level is above the MIN mark, drive carefully to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician and have the brake system inspected.

WARNING

If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the reservoir or if a Brake failure – Service urgent message is displayed in the text window: DO NOT DRIVE. Have the vehicle towed to a trained and qualified Volvo serv- ice technician and have the brake system inspected.

PARK BRAKE Parking brake applied

This light will be on when the parking brake (hand brake) is applied. The parking brake pedal is located on the left side of the driver's footwell, see page 79 for more information.

Canadian models are equipped with this symbol.

Oil pressure warning light2

If the light comes on while driv- ing, stop the vehicle and then stop the engine immediately and check the engine oil level, see page 62. If the light stays on after

restart, have the vehicle towed to the nearest trained and qualified Volvo service technician. After hard driving, the light may come on occa- sionally when the engine is idling. This is nor- mal, provided it goes off when the engine speed is increased.

Generator warning light

If the light comes on while the engine is running, have the charg- ing system checked.

2On certain engines, the symbol for low oil pressure is not used. Instead, a text warning is provided in the information display, see page 62.
