Alarm - Volvo XC60 Owner's Manual

General
The alarm is triggered if:
•
a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened
•
a non-approved remote control key is used
or if an attempt is made to force the ignition
switch
•
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
•
anyone tries to disconnect the siren.
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 detectors trigger the alarm
in the event of movements in the passenger
compartment. For this reason the alarm
could be triggered if the car is left with a
window open or if an electric passenger
compartment heater is used.
To avoid this: Close the windows when leav-
ing the car and aim the air from the passen-
ger compartment heater so that it is not
directed up into the passenger compart-
ment.
NOTE
One of the detectors for the alarm is located
under the cup holder in the centre console.
This detector is sensitive for metals.
Avoid storing coins, keys or similar metal
objects in the centre console's cup holder
as such objects could accidentally trigger
the alarm.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or modify alarm
system components. All such attempts
could affect the terms of insurance.
