Alarm*
02
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.65 General
Activated alarm is triggered if:
•a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened
•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*)
•the battery's cable is disconnected
•the siren is disconnected.
If there is a fault in the alarm system, the infor-
mation display shows a message. In which
case, contact a workshop - an authorised
Volvo workshop is recommended.
NOTE
The movement sensors trigger an alarm in
the event of movement in the passenger
compartment - air currents are also regis-
tered. For this reason the alarm is triggered
if the car is left with a window or the sunroof
open or if the passenger compartment
heater is used.
To avoid this: Close the window/sunroof
when leaving the car. If the car's integrated
passenger compartment heater (or a porta-
ble electric heater) shall be used - direct the
airflow from the air vents so that they are not
pointing upwards in the passenger com-
partment.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or modify alarm
system components. All such attempts
could affect the terms of insurance.
Alarm indicator
Same LED as lock indicator, see page 47.
A red LED on the instrument panel indicates
the alarm system's status:
•LED not lit – Alarm not armed
•The LED flashes once every other second
– Alarm is armed
•The LED flashes rapidly after disarming the
alarm (and until the remote control key is
inserted in the ignition switch and key posi-
tion I is selected) – Alarm has been trig-
gered.
Arming the alarm–Press the remote control key lock button.
Deactivate the alarm–Press the remote control key unlock but-
ton.

Other alarm functions
Automatic re-arming of the alarmThis function prevents the car being left with
the alarm disarmed unintentionally.
If the car is unlocked with the remote control
key (and the alarm is disarmed) but none of the
doors or the tailgate is opened within 2
minutes, then the alarm is automatically re-
armed. The car is relocked at the same time.
Remote control key not workingIf the alarm cannot be deactivated with the
remote control key, e.g. if the key's battery is
discharged - the car can be unlocked, dis-
armed and the engine started as follows:
1. Open the driver's door with the detachable
key blade - see page 56.
> The alarm is triggered, the alarm indica-
tor flashes rapidly and the siren sounds.
2. Insert the remote control key in the ignition
switch.
> The alarm is deactivated and the alarm
indicator goes out.
3. Start the engine.
Alarm signalsWhen the alarm is triggered, the following hap-
pens:
•A siren sounds for 30 seconds or until the
alarm is switched off. The siren has its own
battery and works independently of the car
battery.
•The direction indicators flash for 5 minutes
or until the alarm is switched off.
Reduced alarm level
To avoid accidental triggering of the alarm -
e.g. if a dog is left in a locked car or during
transport on a car train or car ferry - the move-
ment and tilt detectors should be temporarily
deactivated.
The procedure is the same as with the tempo-
rary disengaging of deadlocks, see page 62.

HomeLink Ÿ Ÿ *
03
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.137 General
HomeLink Ÿ is a programmable remote control
which can control up to three different devices
(e.g. garage door, alarm system, outdoor light-
ing and indoor lighting etc.) and in doing so
replace their remote controls. HomeLink
Ÿ is
supplied built into the left-hand sun visor.
The HomeLink
Ÿ panel consists of three pro-
grammable buttons and one indicator lamp.
NOTE
HomeLink Ÿ is designed not to work if the car
is locked from the outside.
Save the original remote controls for future
programming (e.g. when switching to
another car).
Delete the button programming when the
car is to be sold.
Metallic sun visors should not be used in
cars fitted with HomeLink
Ÿ. This may have
an adverse effect on its function.
Operation
When HomeLink Ÿ is fully programmed it can be
used in place of the separate original remote
controls.
Depress the programmed button to activate
the garage door, alarm system etc. The indi-
cator lamp illuminates for the time that the but-
ton is kept depressed.
NOTE
If the ignition is not activated, HomeLink Ÿ
will work for 30 minutes after the driver's
door has been opened.
The original remote controls can of course be
used in parallel with HomeLink Ÿ.
WARNING
If HomeLink Ÿ is used to operate a garage
door or gate, ensure that nobody is in the
vicinity of the door or gate while it is in
motion.
Do not use the HomeLink
Ÿ remote control
for any garage door that does not have
safety stop and safety reverse. The garage
door must react immediately when it
detects that something is preventing its
movement, and stop directly and reverse. A
garage door without these characteristics
could cause personal injury. For further
information - contact the supplier via the
Internet: www.homelink.com.
Programming for the first timeThe first step erases the memory in
HomeLink Ÿ and must not be carried out when
only one individual button is being reprogram-
med.
1. Depress the two outer buttons and do not
release until the indicator lamp starts to
flash after approx. 20 seconds. The flash-
ing indicates that HomeLink
Ÿ is set in
"learn mode" and is ready to be pro-
grammed.
2. Position the original remote control
5-30 cm from HomeLink
Ÿ. Monitor the indi-
cator lamp.

174* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
–Depress the accelerator pedal fully.
> The display shows the stored maximum
speed in brackets (5) and the driver can
temporarily exceed the set maximum
speed.
The speed limiter is automatically re-
activated after the release of the accel-
erator pedal and the car's speed is
slowed down to below the selected/
stored maximum speed - the display's
brackets disappear and the car's maxi-
mum speed is again limited.
Alarm for speed exceededOn steep roads the engine braking effect may
be inadequate and the selected maximum
speed exceeded. The driver is alerted about
this with an acoustic signal.
The signal is active until the driver has slowed
to below the selected maximum speed.
NOTE
The alarm is only activated after 5 seconds
if the speed has been exceeded by at least
3 km/h provided that none of the buttons
or has been depressed during the last
half minute.
DeactivateTo deactivate the speed limiter:–
Press the steering wheel button
.
> The display's symbol for the speed lim-
iter and the set speed (5) are cleared.
The selected and stored speed are thus
deleted from the memory and cannot be
resumed with the
button.
The driver can then use the accelerator
pedal to choose a speed without limita-
tion.
