Interior rearview mirror The interior rearview mirror can be dimmed with a control in the mirror's lower edge. Alternatively,the rearview mirror dims automatically.
Control for dimming
Manual dimmingBright light from behind could be reflected in the rearview mirror and dazzle the driver. Use dim-ming with the dimming control when lights frombehind are distracting:
1. Use dimming by moving the control in
towards the passenger compartment.
2. Return to normal mode by moving the control towards the windscreen.
Automatic dimming *Bright light from behind is automatically dimmed by the rearview mirror. The control for manualdimming is not available on mirrors with auto-matic dimming. The rearview mirror contains two sensors - one forward facing and one rearward facing - thatwork together to identify and eliminate dazzlinglight. The forward facing sensor detects ambientlight, while the rearward facing sensor detectsthe light from vehicle headlights behind.
NOTE
If the sensors are obscured by e.g. parking permits, transponders, sun visors or objects inthe seats or in the cargo area in such a waythat light is prevented from reaching the sen-sors, then the dimming function of the interiorrearview and door mirrors is reduced.
Automatic dimming is always active while driving, apart from when gearbox reverse position isselected. Dimming sensitivity can be adjusted inthree levels and will affect the interior rearviewand the door mirrors.
NOTE
When sensitivity is changed there is no imme- diately noticeable change in dimming, but thechange will be complete after a while.

Programming HomeLink ®
NOTE
In certain vehicles the ignition must be switched on or in "accessory position" before HomeLink
®
can be programmed or used.
Preferably fit new batteries in the remote con-trol that will be replaced by HomeLink ®
for
faster programming and improved transmis-sion of the radio signal. The HomeLink ®
but-
tons should be reset before programming,see the heading "Resetting the HomeLink ®
buttons". When the reset is complete,HomeLink ®
is set in "learn mode" and ready
for programming.
1. Press the 33
button on HomeLink ®
you want
to program. The indicator lamp 33
on
HomeLink ®
should flash yellow once per
second. It is not necessary to hold the button depressed. 2. Aim the remote control towards the
HomeLink ®
button to be programmed and
hold it 2-8 cm from the button. Do not obstruct the indicator lamp on HomeLink ®
.
Note: Some remote controls can program
HomeLink ®
better at a distance of
15-20 cm. Bear this in mind if you encounter problems during programming.
3. Press and hold the button on the original remote control to be programmed on HomeLink ®
and keep an eye on the indicator
lamp. Do not release the button until the indicator lamp has switched from flashingyellow once per second to either flashinggreen 10 times per second or illuminating ina constant green glow. The button on theremote control can be released once theindicator lamp flashes or illuminates in green. Note: For some receivers, programming step
3 may need to be replaced with the instruc- tions in step 4.
4. Press and release the button on the original remote control every other second until theindicator lamp has changed from flashingyellow once per second to either flashinggreen 10 times per second or illuminating ina constant green glow.

Opening/closing the tailgate with foot movement *
To facilitate the operation of the tailgate when your hands are occupied, it can be opened/closed by means of a forward kicking motionunder the rear bumper.
The sensor is positioned to the left of centre in the bumper 13
.
One of the car's remote control keys must be within range 14
behind the car in order for open-
ing/closing to be possible. This also applies to an already unlocked car in order to avoid accidentalopening e.g. in a car wash.
Operation
Kicking motion within the detector's valid activation area.
Opening/closing
NOTE
The foot-operated tailgate function is availa- ble in two versions:
• Opening and closing with foot movement
• Only unlocking with foot movement (liftup the tailgate manually to open it)
Note that the function for opening and clos-ing with foot movement requires the "Power operated tailgate" * option.
–Make one slow, forward kicking motion
under the left part of the rear bumper. Then take a step back. The bumper must not betouched.
> A short acoustic signal sounds when opening/closing is activated - the tailgate is opened/closed. If the tailgate is on open position then it is always closed on activation via foot move-ment.
The tailgate can also be closed via the instrumentpanel's button, the remote control key or the but- ton(s) 15
under the tailgate. For more information,
see the section "Power operated tailgate". If several kicking motions take place without an approved remote control key being locatedbehind the car, opening will not be possible untilafter a certain delay. Do not leave your foot positioned under the car during the kicking motion. This could cause acti-vation to fail.
Cancel opening/closing
–Make one slow forward kicking motion when
opening/closing is in progress in order to stop the movement of the tailgate.
The remote control key does not have to be inthe vicinity of the car to cancel opening/closing.
13 If the car is equipped with skid plate/diffuser * then the detector is positioned out towards the left-hand corner of the bumper.

Alarm
*
The alarm alerts e.g. in the event of a break-in in the car.
When armed, the alarm is triggered if:
• a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened 18
• a movement is detected in the passenger compartment (if fitted with a movement detector
*)
• the car is raised or towed away (if fitted witha tilt detector
*)

failure Service required. In which
case, contact a workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.
NOTE
Do not attempt to repair or alter components in the alarm system yourself. Any suchattempts may affect the terms of the insur-ance.
NOTE
The movement sensors trigger an alarm in the event of movement in the passengercompartment - air currents are also regis-tered. For this reason the alarm is triggered ifthe 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/panoramic roof when leaving the car. If the car's inte-grated parking heater (or a portable electricheater) shall be used - direct the airflow fromthe air vents so that they are not pointingupwards into the passenger compartment.Alternatively, reduced alarm level can be used- see the section further down in this article.
Arming the alarmLock and arm the car alarm as follows:
• press the remote control key's lock button
• touch in the marked area on the outside of the door handle 19
or
• push on the tailgate's rubberised pressureplate 19
