Warning symbol
This symbol shines as a red or yellow light depending on the severity of the discovered fault.
Red symbol - Stop the vehicle as soon as possible in a suitable location and read the message shown in the text
window. The symbol and accompanying text will remain on until the fault has been corrected.
Yellow symbol - Follow the instructions shown in the text window. The text can be erased by pressing the READ
button (see page 28), or will disappear automatically after two minutes.
When the message "TIME FOR REGULAR SERVICE" is displayed, the text can be erased and the yellow symbol
light can be turned off by pressing the READ button. The text will disappear and the symbol light will go out
automatically after two minutes.
Anti-lock brake system ABS
If the warning light comes on, there is a malfunction of the ABS system (the standard braking system will still
function). The vehicle should be driven to a Volvo retailer for inspection. See
Stability Traction Control (STC)* system or Dynamic Stability Traction Control (DSTC) system**
This indicator light will flash when STC or DSTC is actively working to stabilize the car. See
detailed information.
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 141
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 car 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 141 for the location of the brake fluid reservoir).
* Standard on all models except the T5 turbo.
** Standard on the T5 turbo, option on all other models.
