SUPPLEMENT - VALET OR SERVICE LOCKING

The following information supplements your S40 owner's manual page 90

glove compartment, rear seat backrests, and trunk.
Valet or service locking
By utilizing the remote control with the key blade removed, the valet locking feature enables you to block access to the
ProCarManuals.com

trunk and glove compartment for e.g. valet parking or when the car is brought to the retailer for service.
With the valet locking function activated:
The vehicle's doors can be locked or unlocked
The engine can be started
The glove compartment cannot be unlocked
Access to the trunk is blocked (the trunk lid cannot be unlocked or opened, and the rear seat backrests are locked in
the upright position)
To activate the valet locking function:
1. Remove the key blade from the remote control
2. Turn the key blade 180° clockwise in the glove compartment lock to activate the function. (A message appears in
the information display.)
3. Turn the key blade 180° clockwise in the lock cylinders located near the backrest catches on the upper outboard
sections of the backrests to lock the backrests in the upright position. Both locks must be locked to completely block
access to the trunk from inside the car.
4. Give the parking attendant or service personnel only the remote control (with the key blade removed) Turn the key
blade 180° counterclockwise in the glove compartment lock and the backrest locks to deactivate valet locking.
