reduced at this time. This is normal as power is momentarily reduced to help keep the drive wheels from
losing traction and spinning.
Anti-lock Brake system (ABS)
If the warning lamp lights up there is a malfunction of the ABS system (the standard braking system will
however function). The vehicle should be driven to a Volvo retailer for inspection.
See
page 72 for additional information.
Canadian models are equipped with this warning light:
Mode "W" engaged
The lamp will light up when the Winter/Wet starting mode is engaged or if gears "3" or "L" are selected.
If the warning lamp begins to flash, this means that there is a fault in the automatic gearbox. Contact
Your Volvo retailer.
Bulb failure warning light
The light will come on if any of the following bulbs are defective:
· one of the low beam headlights
· one of the tail lights
· one of the brake lights when the brake pedal is depressed.
Check the fuse and bulb. See sections "Replacing bulbs" and "fuses.
Should the warning light come on after a defective outside bulb has been replaced, the corresponding
bulb on the other side of the car should also be replaced.
Roll Over Protection System (ROPS)
If the warning lamp remains on after the engine has started or comes on while you are driving, the ROPS
self-diagnostic system has detected a fault. The car should be driven to an authorized Volvo retailer as
soon as possible for inspection.
Please refer to
page 9 for more information on the ROPS system.
