Volvo V70 service light

I haven't been driving our car for a bit, so didn't know that the 'service needed' light has been lighting up on and off for 10 days or so. The manual can't be found, of course (scatty husband).

Do any of you Volvo drivers know whether it's a non-urgent 'good idea to get a service soonish' (it was MOT'd 6 weeks ago, and had a pre-holiday small service in May), or more important? I was planning to drive 200/300 miles tomorrow - presumably that shouldn't be a problem?

Thanks

    It wont be a problem doing the trip but an MOT is not a service and neither are those summer checkups. Those summer checkups are actually mostly nothing more than the checks you should be doing weekly.
