The car can then be locked in the usual way to set the alarm.

then locked again.

· LED off - the alarm is not armed
· LED flashes once per second - the alarm is armed
· LED flashes rapidly before the ignition is switched on - the alarm has been triggered
· Fault in the alarm system: If a fault has been detected in the alarm system, a message will be displayed in the text
window. Contact a Volvo retailer.

Radio Data System (RDS, also referred to as RBDS) - HU -801 only
The HU -801 radio in your car is equipped with an advanced system allowing information from broadcasters to be
transmitted visually, as text, together with the audio signal. This information is then decoded by the radio and made
available for several new and unique features. The RDS or Radio Data System operates in the FM band only, and
the information transmitted is supplied exclusively by participating broadcasters. Volvo has no control over the
accuracy of the data or information. Please refer to the following pages regarding specific descriptions and operation
of these functions.
Volvo was among the first to pioneer this technology throughout Europe and it is slowly making its way to North
America. Coverage by local broadcasters may be limited at this time, but as the technology and benefits grow, you will
find the radio in your car is equipped to take advantage of this system.
