KEY, LOCKS AND ALARM

Movement and tilt sensors*
Movement and tilt sensors react to move-
ments inside the car, if the window is broken
or if anyone tries to steal the wheels or tow
the vehicle away.
The movement sensor triggers an alarm in the
event of movement in the passenger compart-
ment - air currents are also registered. For this
reason the alarm is triggered if the car is left
with a window or the panoramic roof* open or
if the passenger compartment heater is used.
To avoid this:
•
Close the window and panoramic roof
when leaving the car.
•
If the passenger compartment or parking
heater is to be used – direct the airflow
from the air vents so that they do not point
upwards in the passenger compartment.
Alternatively, use a reduced alarm level to
temporarily deactivate the movement and tilt
sensors.
Also switch off the movement and tilt sensors
when the car is being transported on a ferry or
train as these movements may affect the car
and trigger the alarm.
In the event of an alarm system fault
If there is a fault in the alarm system,
the driver display shows the symbol
and the message
Alarm system
failure Service required. In which
case, contact a workshop - an authorised
Volvo workshop is recommended.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or alter compo-
nents in the alarm system yourself. Any
such attempts may affect the terms of the
insurance.
