Alarm - Volvo XC90 Owner's Manual

Alarm system
When the alarm is armed, it continually moni-
tors all alarm inputs.
The alarm is triggered if:
•
a door, the bonnet or tailgate opens
•
a non-approved key is used in the ignition
or if an attempt is made to force the lock.
•
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).
•
a battery cable is disconnected.
•
anyone tries to disconnect the siren.
Alarm indicator
A red LED on the instrument panel indicates
the alarm system's status:
•
LED not lit – the alarm is not armed.
•
The LED flashes once every other second
– Alarm is armed.
•
The LED flashes rapidly after disarming the
alarm and until the ignition is switched on
– the alarm has been triggered.
If there is a fault in the alarm system, a message
appears on the display. Contact an authorised
Volvo workshop.
