SAFETY

Starting and moving the car after
safety mode
If the car is in safety mode, it is possible to
attempt to reset the system in order to start
and move the car for a short distance, if in a
dangerous traffic situation for example.
Starting the car after safety mode
1. Check the general damage situation of the
car and whether any fuel has been leaking.
There must be no smell of fuel either.
If there is only minor damage and a check
has revealed no fuel leaks, starting can be
attempted.
WARNING
Never, under any circumstances, attempt
to restart the car if it smells of fuel when
the Safety mode See Owner's manual
message is shown in the driver display.
Leave the car at once.
2. Switch off the car.
3. Then try to start the car.
> The car's electronics carry out a sys-
tems check and then try to resume nor-
mal status. The driver display shows
the message
Car start System check,
wait
during this time. This can take up
to one minute.
4. Then try to start the car again when the
message Car start System check, wait
is no longer shown in the driver's display.
IMPORTANT
If the message Safety mode See
Owner's manual is still shown on the dis-
play the car must not be driven or towed
but a vehicle recovery service must then be
used instead. Even if the car appears to be
driveable, hidden damage may make the
car impossible to control once moving.
Moving the car after safety mode
1. If the driver display shows the message
Normal mode The car is now in normal
mode after a start attempt, the car can be
carefully moved if standing in a dangerous
position.
2. Do not move the car further than neces-
sary.
WARNING
If the car is in safety mode it must not be
towed. It must be transported from its
location. Volvo recommends that it is
transported to an authorised Volvo work-
shop.
