CHECK ENGINE Malfunction indicator light
On-Board Diagnostics II (OBDII): As you drive, a computer called "OBDII" monitors your vehicle's
engine, transmission, electrical and emission systems. The CHECK ENGINE light will light up if the
computer senses a condition that potentially may need correcting. When this happens, please have your
vehicle checked by a Volvo retailer as soon as possible.
A CHECK ENGINE light may have many causes. Sometimes, you may not notice a change in your
vehicle's behavior. Even so, an uncorrected condition could hurt fuel economy, emission cleanliness, and
driveability. Extended driving without correcting the cause could even damage other components in
