Default What does this switch do?

My friend just bought a 1997 760 Turbo wagon. It was a great deal and should be a good car for a long time for him. I'm impressed with the build quality and the features available, especially for a 1987 year model. Heated, leather seats, cruise control, auto locks and windows, the whole shebang, in great shape, for $1500! Here's a pic:


Anyway, there is a switch by the fog light switches on the dashboard which I cannot identify. It looks like a "Y" with a third prong in the top center. It's the same type of rocker switch as the fog lights except for the little light on the switch itself. Do you know what it is?

Thanks!

A good looking car which should have a lot more life in it.

That switch:

Power antenna
The power antenna switch can be used retract the antenna when the audio system turned on. This will permit operation of the cassette drive with the antenna in the down position.

If your friend does not have an Owner's Manual he can download this free from Volvo Cars US:
