Tailgate; Automatic Relocking - Volvo V70 Owner's Manual

Replacing the remote control
battery
If the locks repeatedly fail to react to signals
from the remote control at a normal distance,
the battery should be replaced at the next
service interval or within the course of a couple
of weeks.
Remove the cover by carefully prising up
the rear edge with a small screwdriver.
Replace the battery (type CR 2032, 3 volt) -
the plus side should face up. Avoid touching
the battery or its contact surfaces with your
fingers.
Refit the cover. Make sure the rubber seal is
properly fitted and free from damage to
prevent water form entering.
Turn the old battery in to your Volvo
workshop so that it can be disposed of in an
environmentally- friendly manner.

The glovebox can be locked with the master key.

Automatic relocking

If none of the doors or the tailgate are opened
within two minutes of the car being unlocked
with the remote control from outside, all
locks will be automatically relocked. This
function prevents you from inadvertently
leaving the car unlocked.
For cars with an alarm, see page 83.

Locking/unlocking the tailgate
with the remote control
To unlock the tailgate only: Press the button on
the remote control (see illustration) two times
slowly within 3 seconds. If all doors are
locked when the tailgate is closed, it remains
unlocked and has no alarm function after it is
closed. The other doors remain locked and
continue to have their alarm function. To lock
the tailgate and set its alarm function once it is
closed, press the LOCK button again.
NOTE! Automatic relocking:
If you use this button to unlock the tailgate
without opening it, it will automatically relock
after approx. 2 minutes.
The automatic relocking function will, on the
other hand, not operate if you open and then
shut the tailgate.
Manual opening of tailgate
Press the opening button on the tailgate.
