To facilitate the operation of the tailgate when your hands are occupied, it can be opened/closed by means of a forward kicking motionunder the rear bumper.
The sensor is positioned to the left of centre in the bumper 13
.
One of the car's remote control keys must be within range 14
behind the car in order for open-
ing/closing to be possible. This also applies to an already unlocked car in order to avoid accidentalopening e.g. in a car wash.
Operation
Kicking motion within the detector's valid activation area.
Opening/closing

• Opening and closing with foot movement
• Only unlocking with foot movement (liftup the tailgate manually to open it)
Note that the function for opening and clos-ing with foot movement requires the "Power operated tailgate" * option.
–Make one slow, forward kicking motion
under the left part of the rear bumper. Then take a step back. The bumper must not betouched.
> A short acoustic signal sounds when opening/closing is activated - the tailgate is opened/closed. If the tailgate is on open position then it is always closed on activation via foot move-ment.
The tailgate can also be closed via the instrumentpanel's button, the remote control key or the but- ton(s) 15
under the tailgate. For more information,
see the section "Power operated tailgate". If several kicking motions take place without an approved remote control key being locatedbehind the car, opening will not be possible untilafter a certain delay. Do not leave your foot positioned under the car during the kicking motion. This could cause acti-vation to fail.

• a movement is detected in the passenger compartment (if fitted with a movement detector
*)
• the car is raised or towed away (if fitted witha tilt detector
*)
• the starter battery's cable is disconnected or

failure Service required. In which
case, contact a workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or alter components in the alarm system yourself. Any suchattempts may affect the terms of the insur-ance.
NOTE
The movement sensors trigger an alarm in the event of movement in the passengercompartment - air currents are also regis-tered. For this reason the alarm is triggered ifthe car is left with a window or the panoramic roof * open or if the passenger compartment
heater is used. To avoid this: Close the window/panoramic roof when leaving the car. If the car's inte-grated parking heater (or a portable electricheater) shall be used - direct the airflow fromthe air vents so that they are not pointingupwards into the passenger compartment.Alternatively, reduced alarm level can be used- see the section further down in this article.
