the key in the driver's door lock. This function should only be used if it is not possible to unlock the trunk via the
central locking system.
NOTE: Unlocking the trunk in this manner will cause the alarm to sound. See page 58

ProCarManuals.com
"Trunk lock" function

pg. 56 Remote keyless entry system
Remote keyless entry system
Your car is equipped with a remote control transmitter. This transmitter uses a radio frequency which will allow
"keyless" entry into the passenger compartment or the trunk. You will be supplied with two coded key ring
transmitters, which will enable you to lock/unlock all doors and the trunk from a distance of 10-15 feet (3-5 meters).
On vehicles equipped with an alarm, the alarm will also be activated/deactivated by this system.
The car can also be locked/unlocked with the key.
As an extra security precaution in certain situations (valet parking, etc.), Volvo recommends that the transmitter not be
included when the keys are given to anyone. The service key can be used instead. If one of the transmitters is
misplaced, contact the nearest authorized Volvo retailer for assistance.

From the time the ignition key is turned from the Drive position (position I) until you lock the car, you can press the
button in the center console *. The LED in the switch will light up and a message will be displayed in the text window
to indicate that the sensors are disconnected.
The car can then be locked in the usual way to set the alarm.

then locked again.
