Don't mind this light, it comes on at set intervals. Depending on what year it is you might be able to reset it youreslf. If it's a late model volvo then only the dealer can reset it. However, just use it to see if you need and fluids changed, tire rotations, etc. Otherwise don't worry about it. The only light to be concerned about is the check engine light. That light actually means something is wrong with the car and will refer to a code.

So in short, don't worry about the light.
