Volvo S40 Owner's Manual page 44

If the BRAKE and ABS symbols
illuminate at the same time, there
may be a fault in the brake force
distribution system.
• Stop the car in a safe place and turn off
the engine.
• Restart the engine.
• If both symbols extinguish, continue
driving.
• If the symbols remain on, check the level
in the brake fluid reservoir. See page 187.
• 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.
• If the level in the reservoir is below MIN
then the car should not be driven any
further. Have the car transported to an
authorised Volvo workshop to have the
brake system checked.
WARNING
If the BRAKE and ABS symbols are illumi-
nated at the same time, there is a risk that
