Opening the trunk from the inside
The vehicle is equipped with a florescent han-
dle on the inside of the trunk lid, which can be
used in an emergency situation to open the
trunk from the inside. Pull the handle down to
release the trunk lid. After use, the handle must
be pushed back into its original position before
the trunk can be closed.
This handle is not intended to be used to

transported.
WARNING
•Keep vehicle doors and trunk locked
and keep keys out of a child’s reach.
Unsupervised children could lock them-
selves in an open trunk and risk injury.
Children should be taught not to play in
vehicles.
•On hot days, the temperature in the
trunk or vehicle interior can rise very
quickly. Exposure of people to these
high temperatures for even a short
period of time can cause heat-related
injury or death. Small children are par-
ticularly at risk.

67 The alarm system
The alarm is automatically armed whenever the
vehicle is locked with the remote key or
optional Personal Car Communicator.
When armed, the alarm continuously monitors
a number of points on the vehicle. The follow-
ing conditions will trigger the alarm:
•The hood is forced open.
•The trunk is forced open
•A door is forced open.
•The ignition slot is tampered with.
•An attempt is made to start the vehicle with
a non-approved key (a key not coded to
the car's ignition).
•If there is movement in the passenger com-
partment (if the vehicle is equipped with
the accessory movement sensor).
•The vehicle is lifted or towed (if the vehicle
is equipped with the accessory inclination
sensor).
•The battery is disconnected (while the
alarm is armed).
•The siren is disconnected when the alarm
is disarmed.
A message will appear in the information dis-
play if a fault should occur in the alarm system.
Contact a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair any of the compo-
nents in the alarm system yourself. This
could affect the insurance policy on the
vehicle.
