Indicator and warning symbols
02
Indicator symbols – right-hand side
1. Indicator symbol for trailer
This symbol flashes when the di-
rection indicators are used and a
trailer is coupled. If the symbol
does not flash, one of the lamps
on the trailer or the car is defective.
2. Parking brake applied
The lamp comes on when the
parking brake is applied. Always
pull the parking brake lever to the
end position.
3. Airbags – SRS
If this symbol remains on or
comes on while driving, it means
a fault has been detected in the
seatbelt buckle, SRS, SIPS, or IC
system. Drive directly to an authorised Volvo
workshop to have the system checked.
4. Low oil pressure
1
If this symbol lights up while driv-
ing, the engine oil pressure is too
low. Stop the engine immediately
and check the engine oil level,
top up if necessary. If the symbol lights up
and the oil level is normal, contact an author-
ised Volvo workshop.
5. Seatbelt reminder
This symbol lights if someone in
a front seat has not put on their
seatbelt or if someone in a rear
seat has taken off their seatbelt.
6. Alternator not charging
If this symbol lights while driving,
a fault has occurred in the elec-
trical system. Contact an author-
ised Volvo workshop.
7. 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 183. If the level in the reservoir is
below MIN, the car should not be driven
any further. Have the car transported to an
authorised Volvo workshop to have the
brake system checked.
If the BRAKE and ABS symbols
illuminate at the same time, there
may be a fault in the brake force
distribution system.
NOTE
The lamp illuminates irrespective of how
hard the parking brake is applied.

oil pressure is not used. Warnings are given
