WARNING
If the warning symbols for both brake fault

may be a fault in the brake system.
If the brake fluid reservoir level is nor-

the nearest workshop to have the
brake system checked - an authorized
Volvo workshop is recommended.
If the brake fluid has fallen below the

the vehicle should not be driven until
the brake fluid has been filled. The rea-
son for the brake fluid loss must be
checked.
