Alternator not charging
This symbol illuminates during driving
if a fault has occurred in the electrical sys-
tem. Contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
Fault in brake system
If this symbol lights, the brake fluid
level may be too low. Stop the car in a safe
place and check the level in the brake fluid
reservoir, see page 176.
If the brake and ABS symbols illuminate at
the same time, there may be a fault in the
brake force distribution system.
1. Stop the car in a safe place and turn off
the engine.
2. Restart the engine.
If both symbols extinguish, continue driv-
ing.
If the symbols remain on, check the level
in the brake fluid reservoir. See page 176.
If the brake fluid level is normal but the
symbols are still illuminated, the car can
be driven, with great care, to an author-
ised Volvo workshop to have the brake
system checked.
Warning
The red warning symbol illuminates
when a fault has been indicated which could
affect the safety and/or driveability of the car.
An explanatory text is shown on the informa-
tion display at the same time. The symbol re-
mains visible until the fault has been rectified
but the text message can be cleared with the
READ button, see page 97. The warning
symbol can also illuminate in conjunction
with other symbols.
Action:
1. Stop in a safe place. Do not drive the car
further.
2. Read the information on the information
display. Implement the action in accord-
ance with the message in the display.
Clear the message using READ.
Reminder – doors not closed
If one of the doors, the bonnet
1
or boot lid is
not closed properly then the information or
warning symbol illuminates together with an
explanatory text message in the combined
instrument panel. Stop the car in a safe place
as soon as possible and close the door, bon-
net or boot lid, whichever is open.
If the car is driven at a speed lower
than 7 km/h then the information sym-
bol illuminates.
If the car is driven at a speed higher
than 7 km/h then the warning symbol il-
luminates.
WARNING
If the level in the reservoir is below MIN,
the car should be transported to an au-
thorised Volvo workshop to have the
brake system checked.
WARNING
If the brake and ABS symbols are on at the
same time, there is a risk that the rear end
will skid during heavy braking.
