Driving after a collision
G029042
If the car is involved in a collision, the text
CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL may appear on
the information display. This means that the car
has reduced functionality. Crash mode is a
protective state that is enforced when the col-
lision may have damaged any of the car's vital
functions, such as the fuel lines, sensors for
one of the safety systems, or the brake system.
Attempting to start the car
First, check that no fuel is leaking from the car.
There must be no smell of fuel either.
If everything seems normal and you have
checked for indications of fuel leakage, you
may attempt to start the car.
Firstly, remove the remote control key and then
reinsert it. The car's electronics will then try to
reset themselves to normal mode. Then try to
start the car. If
CRASH MODE SEE
MANUAL
is still shown on the display then the
car must not be driven or towed. Even if the car
appears to be driveable, hidden damage may
make the car impossible to control once mov-
ing.
Moving the car
If NORMAL MODE is shown after CRASH
MODE SEE MANUAL
has been reset, the car
can be moved carefully out of a dangerous
position. Do not move the car further than nec-
essary.
WARNING
Never attempt to repair your car or reset the
electronics yourself if the car has been in
crash mode. This could result in personal
injury or the car not functioning as normal.
Volvo recommends that you always engage
an authorised Volvo workshop to check and
restore the car to
NORMAL MODE after
CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL has been
displayed.
WARNING
Never, under any circumstances, attempt to
restart the car if it smells of fuel when the
CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL message is
displayed. Leave the car at once.
WARNING
If the car is in crash mode it must not be
towed. It must be transported from its loca-
tion. Volvo recommends that you have it
conveyed to an authorised Volvo workshop.
