Volvo 1992 240 - Manual (Page 15)

1992 Volvo 240
Voltmeter (optional)
The voltmeter indicates the voltage in the electrical system and thereby also the state of the battery.
While the car is being driven the pointer should be within the black field.
Should the pointer point to the upper or lower red field when driving, this may indicate some fault in the
electrical system.
Note: While idling with a hot engine (especially with air conditioning ON), the pointer may indicate
low voltage. This is not a cause for concern provided that the indicated voltage increases when you
increase engine speed.
