Alarm – general information
The alarm system provides a warning if an attempt is made to break into the vehicle. The alarm is automatically armed (p. 158) whenever the vehicle is locked with theremote key. 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 notcoded to the car's ignition).
• The battery is disconnected (while thealarm is armed).
• The siren is disconnected when the alarmis disarmed.
A message will appear in the information dis- play if a fault should occur in the alarm sys-tem. Contact a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair any of the compo- nents in the alarm system yourself. Thiscould affect the insurance policy on thevehicle.

Spin Control (SC)The SC function is designed to help prevent the drive wheels from spinning while the vehi-cle is accelerating.
Active Yaw Control (AYC)This function helps maintain directional stabil- ity, for example when cornering, by brakingone or more of the wheels if the vehicleshows a tendency to skid or slide laterally.
Corner Traction Control (CTC)CTC compensates for understeering and helps provide additional stability when accel-erating through a curve by preventing theinside wheel from spinning. This is particularlyuseful when accelerating on a curving high-way on-ramp. CTC is most effective if the stability system's Sport mode is selected. See the section
about Sport mode.
Engine Drag Control (EDC)EDC helps keep the engine running if the wheels show a tendency to lock, e.g., whenshifting down in the Geartronic manual shift-ing mode or while using the engine's brakingfunction on a slippery surface. If the enginewere to stop, power steering would not func-tion, making the vehicle more difficult tosteer.
Trailer Stability Assist (TSA)The TSA helps stabilize a vehicle that is tow- ing a trailer when the vehicle and trailer have begun to sway. See Trailer Stability Assist(TSA) (p. 280) for more information. This system is automatically deactivated if the driver selects
Sport mode.

Stability system – operation
Operation
Sport modeThe stability system is always activated and cannot be switched off.
However, the driver canselect Sport mode, which
offers more active drivingcharacteristics. Sport mode can be selected
in the MY CAR menus, see
My Car – introduction (p. 70).
In Sport mode, the engine management sys-
tem monitors movement of the accelerator pedal and steering wheel for sportier drivingby allowing more lateral movement of the rearwheels before ESC is activated. Under certain circumstances, such as when driving with snow chains, or driving in deepsnow or loose sand, it may be advisable totemporarily use Sport mode for maximum
tractive force. If the driver releases pressure on the acceler- ator pedal, ETC will also activate to help sta-bilize the vehicle. To switch to Sport mode:
Sport mode remains active until the driver
switches it off in the menu or until the engine is switched off. ETC will return to normalmode when the engine is restarted.

Adaptive Cruise Control consists of: • A cruise control system to maintain a set speed
• A system to maintain a set distance to thevehicle ahead, which is expressed as atime interval. For example, you canchoose to remain approximately 2 sec-onds behind the vehicle ahead. Theactual distance required to maintain a2-second interval will vary according thespeed of the vehicles.
