Automatically Arming/Disarming The - Volvo XC 90 Owner's Manual

LOCKS AND ALARM

Automatically arming/disarming the

alarm
Automatically arming the alarm helps prevent
inadvertently leaving the vehicle without alarm
protection.
If the vehicle has been unlocked with the remote
key (and the alarm has been disarmed) but no
door or the tailgate has been opened within
2 minutes, the vehicle will automatically relock
and the alarm will re-arm.
In certain markets, the alarm will be re-armed
automatically after a slight delay after the driver's
door has been opened and closed without being
locked.
