Warning  
If the driver display turns off, doesn't turn on or is only partially legible, you must not use the car. This is because the  
driver will not receive warnings and car status information shown in the driver display, such as warnings and information  
relating to brakes, airbags or other safety systems. If there is an issue with the driver display, contact an authorised Volvo  
workshop.  
Tip  
You can change driver display settings in the centre display.

symbol colour roughly signifies the level of importance. Red symbols are the most critical while amber symbols represent less  
urgent warnings and alerts. Symbols of other colours typically convey status information about the car's functions.

providing more information.
