2001 Volvo S80

Models with daytime running lights: Low beam headlights will automatically come on if the ignition
key is in position II. Front and rear parking lights and license plate lights will also be on.

Volvo recommends the use of daytime running lights. If, however, you would prefer to have these lights
turned off (USA only), please consult your Volvo retailer. Please note that the use of daytime running
lights is mandatory in Canada.

Parking lights on

Headlights, parking lights, license plate lights and instrument panel illumination are on if the

ignition key is in position II.

If the headlight switch is in position

all lights will go out when the ignition is switched off. The

headlight switch must be in this position before the high beams will function.

Switch from high to low beams and vice versa by moving the turn signal switch lever on the left side of
steering column towards the steering wheel.

B - Instrument illumination
Move the thumbwheel up to increase brightness or down to decrease brightness. There is also an
instrument panel illumination sensor (see illustration on

page 41

) which automatically adjusts the level

of illumination.

C - Front fog lights (option)
The front fog lights will only function in combination with the low beam headlights.

An LED in the switch indicates when the front fog lights are on.
