2003 VOLVO XC70
The STC/DSTC button in the center control panel (see page 30) is used to switch the Spin Control (SC)
function on or off.
NOTE: AYC (on models equipped with this function) will also be reduced, but not switched off, if SC
is switched off.
The button must be pressed for at least a half second to prevent SC from being switched off
inadvertently.
When the function has been switched off, the green indicator lamp in the button will go out and "SPIN
CONTROL OFF" will be displayed in the text window.
All STC/DSTC functions are (re)activated each time the engine is started.
The Stability Control indicator light
The Stability Control indicator light will come on for approximately 2 seconds when the ignition is
switched on as the system performs a self-diagnostic test.
The Stability Control indicator light will flash when:
●
Traction Control is actively functioning to help avoid drive-wheel spin.
●
Spin Control is actively functioning to help avoid loss of traction during acceleration.
●
Active Yaw Control is actively functioning to help avoid skids or lateral slides.
The warning symbol in the instrument panel
A steady yellow glow indicates:
●
That the system has been automatically disengaged due to a fault. "ANTI SKID SERVICE
REQUIRED" be displayed in the text window. An authorized Volvo retailer should check the system.
●
The system has been temporarily switched off due to high brake temperature. "TRACTION
CONTROL TEMPORARILY OFF" will be displayed.
NOTE: The system will automatically switch on again when the brakes have cooled.
