Locks and alarm
Alarm (option)
Temporary deactivation of
detectors and deadlocks
To avoid inadvertently triggering of the alarm,
for example when leaving a dog in the car or
during a ferry crossing, the movement and tilt
detectors can be temporarily deactivated:
– Insert the key in the ignition switch, turn it
to position II and then back to position I
or 0.
– Press the button.
The LED in the button lights until you lock the
car with the key or remote control.
A message will be shown in the display as
long as the key remains in the ignition switch.

The sensors will be reactivated when the igni-
tion is restarted.
If your car has deadlocks, they are reactivated
at the same time. See page 104.
Indicator lamp on the dashboard
(certain countries)
An indicator lamp (LED) at the top of the
dashboard indicates alarm status:
• Lamp not lit: Alarm is deactivated.
• The lamp flashes once every other
second: the alarm is armed.
• Lamp flashes quickly, after deactivating
the alarm and until the ignition is switched
on: The alarm has been triggered.
If there is a fault in the alarm system, a mes-
sage appears in the display.
If the alarm system does not function cor-
rectly, have an authorised Volvo workshop
examine the car.
IMPORTANT!
Do not attempt to repair or modify alarm
system components. All such attempts
can affect terms of insurance.
