Alarm system
When the alarm is armed, it continually moni-
tors all alarm inputs.
The alarm is triggered if:
• a door, the bonnet or boot lid 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 light on instrument panel
A light on the instrument panel indicates the
alarm system’s status:
• Light not illuminated – the alarm is not
armed.
• The light flashes rapidly after disarming
the alarm and until the ignition is switched
on – the alarm has been triggered.
• The lamp flashes once every other second
after the car’s direction indicators have
made one long flash signal – Alarm is
armed.
If there is a fault in the alarm system, a mes-
sage appears on the information display.
Contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
Arming the alarm
– Press the lock button on the remote con-
trol. A long flash from the car’s direction
indicators confirms that the alarm is
armed and that the doors are locked.
Disarming the alarm
– Press the unlock button on the remote
control. Two short flashes from the car’s
direction indicators confirm that the alarm
is disarmed and that the doors are
unlocked.
NOTE
When the roof is closed, the alarm functions
in the same way as when it is open, i.e.
movement detected in the passenger com-
partment triggers an alarm.

NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or modify alarm
system components. All such attempts
could affect the terms of insurance.
IMPORTANT
The alarm is fully armed when the car’s di-
rection indicators have made one long flash
and the light on the instrument panel flash-
es once every other second.
