Updated 08/06/2023

The indicator symbols alert the driver that a function is activated, that a system is operating, or that a fault or abnormal condition exists.

Symbol	Specification
	Information, read display text When one of the car's systems does not behave as intended, this information symbol illuminates and a text appears on the driver display. The information symbol can also illuminate in conjunction with other symbols.
	Fault in brake system The symbol lights up when there is a fault in the parking brake.
	ABS fault If this symbol illuminates then the system is not working. The car's regular brake system continues to work, but without the ABS function.
	Automatic brake on The brake holds the car stationary when it has stopped. The symbol illuminates when the function is activated and the foot brake or parking brake is acting.
	Tyre pressure system The symbol illuminates when tyre pressure is too low. If there is a fault in the tyre pressure system, the symbol will flash for approx. 1 minute and then illuminate with a constant glow. This may be because the system cannot detect or warn of low tyre pressure as intended.
	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 an authorised Volvo workshop is contacted.
	Left and right-hand direction indicator The symbols flash when the direction indicators are used.

	Stability system, sport mode 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 skidding of the rear section up to a certain level before it intervenes and stabilises the car. The symbol illuminates when the sport mode is activated.
