2. All of the indicator lights will flash sequen- tially for approximately 7 seconds to indi- cate that the PCC is receiving information from the vehicle. If any of the buttons are pressed during this 7-second period, transmission of information to the PCC will be interrupted.

NOTE

If none of the indicator lights flash when the information button has been pressed sev- eral times from different places in relation to the vehicle, contact an authorized Volvo service technician.

The indicator lights provide information according to the illustration:

56

NOTE

• The approach lighting, panic alarm, and the functions controlled by the informa- tion button have a range of approxi- mately 300 ft (100 m) from the vehicle. • Radio waves, buildings or other obsta- cles may interfere with the function of the PCC.

If the vehicle does not provide confirmation when a button has been pressed, try moving closer and pressing the button again. Outside of the PCC´s range If the PCC is more than approximately 300 ft (100 m) from the vehicle when the information button is pressed, no new information will be received. The PCC most recently used to lock or unlock the vehicle will show the vehicle's most recently received status. The indicator lights will not flash when the information button is pressed while the PCC is out of range. If more than one PCC is used to lock/unlock the vehicle, only the one used most recently will show the correct locking status.

Steady green light: the vehicle is correctly locked. Steady yellow light: the vehicle is not locked. Steady red light: the alarm has been trig- gered. Both red lights flash alternatively: the alarm was triggered less than 5 minutes ago.

Range The PCC's lock and unlock functions have a range of approximately 60 ft. (20 m) from the vehicle.

NOTE

Removing the key blade

If none of the indicator lights illuminate when the information button is pressed, this may be because the most recent transmission between the vehicle and the PCC was inter- rupted or impeded by buildings or other objects.

Malfunction Indicator Light

As you drive, a computer called On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII) monitors your vehicle's engine, transmission, electrical and emission systems. The malfunction indicator (CHECK ENGINE) light will illuminate if the computer senses a

condition that potentially may need correcting. When this happens, please have your vehicle checked by a trained and qualified Volvo serv- ice technician as soon as possible. A malfunction indicator (CHECK ENGINE) light may have many causes. Sometimes, you may not notice a change in your car's behavior. Even so, an uncorrected condition could hurt fuel economy, emission controls, and drivabil- ity. Extended driving without correcting the cause could even damage other components in your vehicle. This light may illuminate if the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine was running while the vehicle was refueled.

Canadian models are equipped with this

symbol.
