ABL fault
The symbol illuminates if a fault has arisen in the
ABL function (Active Bending Lights).
Emissions system
If the symbol illuminates after the engine has
been started then it may be due to a fault in the
car's emissions system. Drive to a workshop for
checking. Volvo recommends that you seek
assistance from an authorised Volvo workshop.
ABS fault
If this symbol illuminates then the system is not
working. The car's regular brake system contin-
ues to work, but without the ABS function.
1. Stop the car in a safe place and turn off the
engine.
2. Restart the engine.
3. If the symbol remains illuminated, drive to a
workshop to have the ABS system checked.
Volvo recommends that you seek assistance
from an authorised Volvo workshop.
Rear fog lamp on
This symbol illuminates when the rear fog lamp is
switched on.
Stability system
A flashing symbol indicates that the stability sys-
tem is operating. If the symbol illuminates with
constant glow then there is a fault in the system.
Stability system, sport mode
The symbol illuminates when the sport mode is
activated. Sport mode allows for a more active
driving experience. The system then detects
whether the accelerator pedal, steering wheel
movements and cornering are more active than in
normal driving and then allows controlled skid-
ding of the rear section up to a certain level
before it intervenes and stabilises the car.
Engine preheater
This symbol illuminates during engine preheating.
Preheating takes place mostly due to low tem-
perature.
Low level in fuel tank
When the symbol illuminates the level in the fuel
tank is low, refuel as soon as possible.
