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:
1. Insert the key in the ignition switch, turn it
to position II and then back to position I
or
0.
2. 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 ig-
nition is restarted.
If your car has deadlocks, they are reactivat-
ed at the same time. See page 102.
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
after the car’s direction indicators have
made one long flash signal: 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.
