Anti-lock Brake System (ABS)  - About this manual - Important information - Introduction - Volvo XC60 Owners Manual - Volvo XC60

The ABS system performs a brief self-diagnostic test when the engine has been started and driver releases the brake pedal. Another automatic test may be performed when the vehicle first reaches a speed of approximately 6 mph (10 km/h). The brake pedal will pulsate several times and a sound may be audible from the ABS control module. This is normal.
