Fault in brake system

If this symbol lights, the brake fluid level may be too low. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and check the level in the brake fluid reservoir, see page 215. If the level in the reservoir is below MIN, the vehicle should be transported to an authorized Volvo workshop to have the brake system checked. Canadian models are equipped with this sym- bol:

and

If the symbols come on at the same time, there may be a fault in the brake force distribution system.

1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off

the engine.

2. Restart the engine. • If both symbols extinguish, continue driv-

ing.

• If the symbols remain on, check the level in the brake fluid reservoir, see page 215. If the brake fluid level is normal but the sym- bols are still lit, the vehicle can be driven, with great care, to an authorized Volvo workshop to have the brake system checked.

• If the level in the reservoir is below MIN, the vehicle should be transported to an author- ized Volvo workshop to have the brake system checked.

WARNING

• If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the reservoir or if a warning message is displayed in the text window: DO NOT DRIVE. Have the vehicle towed to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician and have the brake system inspected.

• If the ABS and Brake system lights are on at the same time, there is a risk of reduced vehicle stability.

HomeLink® Wireless Control System (option)

Introduction

03

The HomeLink Wireless Control System pro- vides a convenient way to replace up to three hand-held radio-frequency (RF) transmitters used to activate devices such as gate opera- tors, garage door openers, entry door locks, security systems, even home lighting. Addi- tional HomeLink information can be found on the Internet at www.homelink.com.

WARNING

• If you use HomeLink to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is in motion.

• When programming a garage door

opener, it is advised to park outside of the garage.

• Do not use HomeLink with any garage door opener that lacks safety stop and reverse features as required by U.S. federal safety standards (this includes any garage door opener model manu- factured before April 1, 1982). A garage door that cannot detect an object - sig- naling the door to stop and reverse - does not meet current U.S. federal safety standards. For more information, contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.com.

Retain the original transmitter of the RF device you are programming for use in other vehicles as well as for future HomeLink programming. It is also suggested that upon the sale of the vehicle, the programmed HomeLink buttons be erased for security purposes. Refer to “Erasing HomeLink Buttons”.

Programming HomeLink

NOTE

Some vehicles may require the ignition switch to be turned on or to the second (“accessories”) position for programming and/or operation of HomeLink. It is also rec- ommended that a new battery be placed in the hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed to HomeLink for quicker training and accurate transmission of the radio-frequency signal.

1. Position the end of your hand-held trans- mitter 1–3 inches (5–14 cm) away from the HomeLink button you wish to program while keeping the indicator light in view. 2. Simultaneously press and hold both the

chosen HomeLink and hand-held transmit- ter buttons until the HomeLink indicator light changes from a slow to a rapidly blink- ing light. Now you may release both the HomeLink and hand-held transmitter but- tons.

102

03 Your driving environment

HomeLink® Wireless Control System (option)

NOTE

Some devices may require you to replace this Programming Step 2 with procedures noted in the “Gate Operator / Canadian Pro- gramming” section. If the HomeLink indica- tor light does not change to a rapidly blinking light after performing these steps, contact HomeLink at www.homelink.com.

3. Firmly press, hold for five seconds and release the programmed HomeLink but- ton up to two separate times to activate the door. If the door does not activate, press and hold the just-trained HomeLink button and observe the indicator light. • If the indicator light stays on con- stantly, programming is complete and your device should activate when the HomeLink button is pressed and released.

• If the indicator light blinks rapidly for

two seconds and then turns to a con- stant light continue with “Program- ming” steps 4-6 to complete the pro- gramming of a rolling code equipped device (most commonly a garage door opener).

4. At the garage door opener receiver (motor- head unit) in the garage, locate the “learn” or “smart” button. This can usually be

found where the hanging antenna wire is attached to the motor-head unit.

5. Firmly press and release the “learn” or

“smart” button. (The name and color of the button may vary by manufacturer.) There are 30 seconds to initiate step 6.

6. Return to the vehicle and firmly press, hold

for two seconds and release the pro- grammed HomeLink button. Repeat the “press/hold/release” sequence a second time, and, depending on the brand of the garage door opener (or other rolling code equipped device), repeat this sequence a third time to complete the programming process.

HomeLink should now activate your rolling code equipped device.

Gate Operator/Canadian Programming Canadian radio-frequency laws require trans- mitter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after sev- eral seconds of transmission – which may not be long enough for HomeLink to pick up the signal during programming. Similar to this Canadian law, some U.S. gate operators are designed to “time-out” in the same manner. If you live in Canada or you are having difficul- ties programming a gate operator or garage door opener by using the “Programming” pro-

cedures, replace “Programming HomeLink” step 2 with the following: • Continue to press and hold the HomeLink

button while you press and release - every two seconds (“cycle”) your hand- held transmitter until the HomeLink indica- tor light changes from a slow to a rapidly blinking light. Now you may release both the HomeLink and hand-held transmitter buttons.

Proceed with “Programming” step 3 to com- plete.

Using HomeLink To operate, simply press and release the pro- grammed HomeLink button. Activation will now occur for the trained device (i.e., garage door opener, gate operator, security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.). For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of the device may also be used at any time. In the event that there are still programming difficul- ties or questions, contact HomeLink at: www.homelink.com.

Starting the engine

WARNING

NOTE

• The idling speed can be noticeably

higher than normal during cold starts. This is to enable emission control sys- tem can reach normal operating tem- perature as quickly as possible, which helps reduce exhaust emissions3.

• Keylock: Your vehicle is equipped with a keylock system. When the engine is switched off, the gear selector must be in the Park position before the key can be removed4 from the ignition slot.

• Always remove the remote key from the

ignition slot when leaving the vehicle, especially if there are children in the vehicle.

• Never remove the remote key from the ignition slot while driving or when the vehicle is being towed. The steering lock could otherwise be activated, mak- ing it impossible to steer the vehicle. Never remove the remote key with key- less drive function (option) from the vehicle while driving or during towing. • Always place the gear selector in Park

and apply the parking brake before leaving the vehicle. Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine run- ning.

• Always open garage doors fully before starting the engine inside a garage to ensure adequate ventilation. The exhaust gases contain carbon monox- ide, which is invisible and odorless but very poisonous.

CAUTION

• When starting in cold weather, the auto-

matic transmission may shift up at slightly higher engine speeds than nor- mal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating tem- perature.

• Do not race a cold engine immediately

after starting. Oil flow may not reach some lubrication points fast enough to prevent engine damage.

• The engine should be idling when you move the gear selector. Never acceler- ate until after you feel the transmission engage. Accelerating immediately after selecting a gear will cause harsh engagement and premature transmis- sion wear.

• Selecting P or N when idling at a stand-

still for prolonged periods of time will help prevent overheating of the auto- matic transmission fluid.

Keyless drive (option) Follow steps 3 – 4 for starting the engine.

3 If the gear selector is in the D or R positions and the car is not moving, engine speed (rpm) will be lower and it will take longer for the engine to reach normal operating temperature. 4 Does not apply to vehicles with the optional keyless drive.
