bags (p. 39), a front passenger occupant
weight sensor (p. 36), and inflatable cur-
tains (p. 41). All of these systems are moni-
tored by the SRS control module. An SRS
warning light in the instrument panel (see the
02
illustration) illuminates when the ignition is in
modes I or II, and will normally go out after
approximately 6 seconds if no faults are
detected in the system.
Where applicable, a text message will also be
displayed when the SRS warning light illumi-
nates. If this warning symbol is not function-
ing properly, the general warning symbol illu-
minates and a text message will be displayed.
See also Information displays – indicator
symbols (p. 66) and Information displays –
warning symbols (p. 68) for more informa-
tion about indicator and warning lights.

WARNING
•
If the SRS warning light stays on after
the engine has started or if it illumi-
nates while you are driving, have the
vehicle inspected by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician as
soon as possible.
•
Never try to repair any component or
part of the SRS yourself. Any interfer-
ence in the system could cause mal-
function and serious injury. All work on
these systems should be performed by
a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
WARNING
If your vehicle has become flood-damaged
in any way (e.g., soaked carpeting/stand-
ing water on the floor of the vehicle), do
not attempt to start the vehicle or insert
the remote key into the ignition slot before
disconnecting the battery (see below). This
may cause airbag deployment which could
result in serious injury. Have the vehicle
towed to a trained and qualified Volvo
service technician for repairs.
Before attempting to tow the vehicle:
1. Switch off the ignition for at least
10 minutes and disconnect the bat-
tery.
2. Follow the instructions for manually
overriding the shiftlock system Trans-
mission – shiftlock override (p. 254).
