control. Please change batteries.
and/or
•the locks repeatedly do not react to signals
from the remote control key within
20 metres from the car.

At the same time pull the key blade
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.
NOTE
Turn the remote control key over with the
buttons facing up, this is to avoid the bat-
teries falling out when it is opened.
IMPORTANT
Avoid touching the battery and its terminals
with your fingers, as this could damage their
functionality.
Battery replacementClosely study how the battery/batteries are
secured on the inside of the cover, with
regard to their (+) and (–) sides.
Remove control key (1 battery)1. Carefully prize out the battery.
2.
Install a new one with the (+) side down.
PCC* (2 batteries)1. Carefully prize out the batteries.

02 Locks and alarm
Locking/unlocking
02
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.57 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
46.
In order that the lock sequence can be acti-
vated, the driver's door must be closed - if any
of the other doors or the tailgate is open, then
it/they is/are locked and the alarm is activated
only when it/they are closed. With the Key-
less* system all the doors and tailgate must be
closed.
NOTE
Be aware of the risk of locking the remote
control key in the car.
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 48.
NOTE
Remember that the alarm is triggered when
the door is opened after being unlocked
with the key blade - the alarm is switched
off when the remote control key is inserted
into the ignition switch.
WARNING
Be aware of the risk of being locked in the
car when it is locked from the outside using
the remote control key - it is then not pos-
sible to open any of the doors from the
inside with the door controls. Read more
about this in the section "Deadlocks" later
on.
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 63.)
Manual lockingIn certain situations the car must be lockable
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 54.Other doors do not have lock cylinders and
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. The doors can still be opened
from the inside.
Manual locking of the door. Not to be mixed up
with child safety locks, see page 62.
–Use the remote control key's detachable
key blade to turn the knob, see page 48.
The door is blocked against opening from
the outside.
The door can be opened from both the
outside and the inside.

02 Locks and alarm
Alarm*
02
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.63 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 45.
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.
Deactivate 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
the 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.
Remote control key not workingIf the alarm cannot be deactivated with the
remote control key, e.g. if the key's battery is
discharged - the car can be unlocked, dis-
armed and the engine started as follows:
1. Open the driver's door with the detachable
key blade - see page 54.
> The alarm is triggered, the alarm indica-
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.
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 and works independently of the car
battery.
•The direction indicators flash for 5 minutes
or until the alarm is switched off.
Reduced alarm level
To avoid accidental triggering of the alarm -
e.g. if a dog is left in a locked car or during
transport on a car train or car ferry - temporarily
deactivate the movement and tilt detectors.
The procedure is the same as with the tempo-
rary disengaging of deadlocks, see page 60.
