straight out backwards.
Insert a 3 mm slot screwdriver in the
hole behind the spring-loaded catch and
gently prize the remote control key up.

teries falling out when it is opened.

Locking/unlocking

61 From the outside
The remote control key can lock/unlock all
doors and the tailgate simultaneously. Different
sequences for unlocking can be selected, see
Unlocking with the remote control key, page
50.
If it is not possible to lock/unlock with the
remote control key, the battery may be dis-
charged - lock or unlock the left-hand front
door with the detachable key blade, see
page 52.
WARNING
Be aware that there is a risk that you can be
locked in the car if it is locked from the out-
side.
Automatic relockingIf none of the doors or the tailgate is opened
within 2 minutes of unlocking, all are locked
again automatically. This function reduces the
risk that the car is left unlocked unintentionally.
(For cars with alarm, see page 67.)
Manual lockingIn certain situations the car must be locked
manually, e.g. in the event of power failure.
The left-hand front door can be locked with its
lock cylinder and the remote control key's
detachable key blade, see page 58.Other doors do not have lock cylinders, but
instead have lock knobs on each door's end
face which must be re-turned - then they are
mechanically locked/blocked against opening
from the outside. They can still be opened from
the inside.
Manual locking of the door.

Use the remote control key's detachable
key blade to turn the knob, see page 52.
The door is blocked against opening from
the outside.
The door can be opened from both the
outside and the inside.
NOTE
•A door's knob control only locks that
particular door - not all doors simulta-
neously.
•A manually locked rear door with an
activated manual child safety lock can-
not be opened from either the outside
or the inside, see page 66. A rear door
that is locked in this way can only be
unlocked with the remote control key or
central locking button.

Alarm*

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.67 General
Activated alarm is triggered if:
•a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened
•a movement is detected in the passenger
compartment (if fitted with a movement
detector*)
•the car is raised or towed away (if fitted
with a tilt detector*)
•the battery's cable is disconnected
•the siren is disconnected.
If there is a fault in the alarm system, the infor-
mation display shows a message. In which
case, contact a workshop - an authorised
Volvo workshop is recommended.
NOTE
The movement sensors trigger an alarm in
the event of movement in the passenger
compartment - air currents are also regis-
tered. For this reason the alarm is triggered
if the car is left with a window or the sunroof
open or if the passenger compartment
heater is used.
To avoid this: Close the window/sunroof
when leaving the car. If the car's integrated
passenger compartment heater (or a porta-
ble electric heater) shall be used - direct the
airflow from the air vents so that they are not
pointing upwards in the passenger com-
partment.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or modify alarm
system components. All such attempts
could affect the terms of insurance.
Alarm indicator
Same LED as lock indicator, see page 49.
A red LED on the instrument panel indicates
the alarm system's status:
•LED not lit – Alarm not armed
•The LED flashes once every other second
– Alarm is armed
•The LED flashes rapidly after disarming the
alarm (and until the remote control key is
inserted in the ignition switch and key posi-
tion I is selected) – Alarm has been trig-
gered.
Arming the alarm
Press the remote control key lock button.
Disarming the alarm
Press the remote control key unlock but-
ton.
Deactivating a triggered alarm
Press the remote control key unlock button
or insert the remote control key in the igni-
tion switch.
Other alarm functions
Automatic re-arming of the alarmThis function prevents the car being left with
alarm disarmed unintentionally.
If the car is unlocked with the remote control
key (and the alarm is disarmed) but none of the
doors or the tailgate is opened within
2 minutes, then the alarm is automatically re-
armed. The car is relocked at the same time.
Alarm signalsWhen the alarm is triggered, the following hap-
pens:
•A siren sounds for 30 seconds or until the
alarm is switched off. The siren has its own

battery which works independently of the
car battery.
•The direction indicators flash for 5 minutes
or until the alarm is switched off.
Remote control key not workingIf the alarm cannot be switched off with the
remote control key, e.g. if the key's battery is
discharged, the car can be disarmed and the
engine started as follows:
1. Open the driver's door with the key blade.

tor flashes rapidly and the siren sounds.
2. Insert the remote control key in the ignition
switch.
> The alarm is deactivated and the alarm
indicator goes out.
3. Start the engine.
Reduced alarm level
To avoid accidental triggering of the alarm -
e.g. if a dog is left in the car or during transport
on a car train or a car ferry - the movement and
tilt sensors can be temporarily deactivated.
The procedure is the same as with the tempo-
rary disengaging of deadlocks, see page 64.
