2002 VOLVO Cross Country Brake circuit malfunction If one of the brake circuits were to malfunction, the red warning light would come on, the pedal travel would increase slightly, the pedal would feel softer, and extra pressure would be required for normal braking. If the light comes on while driving or braking, stop immediately and check the brake fluid level in the reservoir. WARNING! If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the reservoir: DO NOT DRIVE. Tow the car to a Volvo retailer and have the brake system inspected. NOTE: When the car is at a standstill and the engine is idling, e.g. at a traffic light and the brake pedal is depressed, the pedal may go down slightly. This is normal and is caused by an built-in function in the power brake system. If the brake power-assist does not function The power assist to the brakes functions only when the engine is running. When the car is moving without the engine running, the brake pedal pressure required to stop the car is increased by 3-4 times and the brake pedal feels stiff. Water on brake discs and brake pads affects braking Driving in rain and slush or passing through an automatic car wash can cause water to collect on the brake discs and pads. This will cause a delay in braking effect when the pedal is depressed. To avoid such a delay when the brakes are needed, depress the pedal occasionally when driving through rain, slush etc. This will remove the water from the brakes. Check that brake application feels normal. This should also be done after washing or starting in very damp or cold weather. Severe strain on the brake system The brakes will be subject to severe strain when driving in mountains or hilly areas or towing. Vehicle speed is usually slower, which means that the cooling of the brakes is less efficient than when driving on level roads. To reduce the strain on the brakes, it is advisable not to use the brakes excessively. Instead, shift into a lower gear and let the engine help with the braking. Do not forget that, if you are towing a trailer, the brakes will be subjected to a greater than normal load. pg. 19 Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) file:///K|/ownersdocs/2002/2002_XC/02xc_01b.htm (10 of 14)12/30/2006 4:04:46 PM
