Default Questions on 98 XC V70

Hello all. Just joined. I recently bought a used 98 Volvo XC V70 with 92,000. I think it is loaded but I'm not sure. What were the options for the 98 model year? I have a moonroof and heated leather seats. The owners manual was not in the car. When I start the car I get a "service" light and a "check engine" light. What do these mean? Also, what does the S, E, W stand for on the buttons below the gear shifter? Thanks for the help.

Service light means it needs an oil change or the light wasn't reset.
Check engine light means there is a problem with the engine system.

The w stands for winter mode (Car starts in 3rd gear)
S stands for Sport shifting
E stands for Economy shifting

Thanks for the offer but I just found a site online that has the entire manual. I've had mine for about the same period of time. When did you buy yours exactly? What color is it?
