Remote start (ERS)*
Remote start (ERS – Engine Remote Start)
means that the car's engine can be started
remotely in order to be able to warm up/cool
down the passenger compartment before depar-
ture. Remote start is activated via key and/or via
Volvo On Call*.
The climate control system starts on automatic
settings. A remote-started engine is activated for
a maximum of 15 minutes, then it is switched off.
After two activations of remote start, the engine
must be started in the normal way before remote
start can be used again.
Engine remote start is only available in cars with
automatic gearbox and cars that have a bonnet
switch
3
installed.
NOTE
The service life of the remote control key's
battery is affected by the remote start func-
tion. In the event of frequent use of remote
start, the battery should therefore be changed
once per year, see Remote control key -
replacing the battery (p. 174).
2
In cars with keyless start and lock system it is enough to have a remote control key inside the passenger compartment.
3
Available in the XC60, cars with alarm, most cars with 4-cylinder engines or if ERS is selected for new construction.
