Locking/unlocking from the outside
The car is locked/unlocked from the outside using buttons on the remote control key or withthe door or tailgate handles if the car is equip-ped with keyless locking/unlocking (Passive Entry) *. The tailgate can be operated via power
operation * and/or foot movement *.
Locking/unlocking
The buttons on the remote control key can be used to lock/unlock all doors and the tailgatesimultaneously.
Locking
The driver's door must be closed in order for the lock sequence to be activated. If any of the otherdoors or the tailgate is open, then these are not locked and their alarms armed * until they are
closed. The alarm's movement detectors * are
activated when all the doors and the tailgate are closed and locked.
NOTE
Be aware of the risk of locking the remote control key/Key Tag in the car. A remote control key/Key Tag left in the car will be deactivated when the car is locked andthe alarm is armed using another valid key.The deactivated key is reactivated when thecar is unlocked.
WARNING
Do not allow anyone to remain in the car with- out first deactivating the deadlocks in order toavoid the risk of anyone being locked in.
Unlocking
If it is not possible to lock/unlock with the remote control key, the battery may be discharged - inwhich case, lock or unlock the driver's door withthe detachable key blade. See the section"Detachable key blade" for more information.
NOTE
Always try moving closer to the car and mak- ing another unlock attempt.
Settings for remote-controlled unlocking
It is possible to select different sequences for unlocking. 1.
Tap on
Settings in the centre display's top
view.
2. Press

- unlocks the driver's door. Unlocking all of the doors requires two presses on theremote control key's unlock button.
The settings made for the
Remote and Interior
Unlock function also affect central unlocking via
opening handles from the inside. For more infor- mation about how unlocking from the inside isaffected, see the section "Locking/unlockingfrom the inside".
Keyless locking/unlocking *If the car is equipped with keyless locking/ unlocking*, it is sufficient to have the remote con-
trol key in the vicinity e.g. in a pocket or a bag, making it more convenient to open the car if yourhands are full. For information on the system'srange, see the section "Remote control keyrange".

Deadlocks
*
Deadlocks means that all door handles are mechanically disengaged, which prevents doorsbeing opened from the inside.
Deadlocks are activated with the remote control key and in keyless locking (Passive Entry) *.
Deadlocks are activated with a delay of about 10 seconds after the doors have locked.
NOTE
If a door is opened within the delay time then the sequence is interrupted and the alarm isdeactivated.
The car can only be unlocked with the remote control key, keyless unlocking or the Volvo On Call * app when deadlocks are activated.
The front left door can also be unlocked with the detachable key blade. If the car is unlocked with the detachable key blade, the alarm * will be trig-
gered. See the section "Alarm" for switching off the alarm.
WARNING
Do not allow anyone to remain in the car with- out first deactivating the deadlocks in order toavoid the risk of anyone being locked in.

–Tap on SettingsMy CarLocking and
select Reduced Guard.
After this,
Reduced Guard is shown in the cen-
tre display and deadlocks are temporarily deacti- vated in the subsequent locking of the car. In conventional locking, the electrical sockets are deactivated immediately, but when deadlocks aretemporarily deactivated, they will be active for amaximum of 10 minutes after locking. If the car is unlocked and then locked again, deadlocks must be temporarily deactivated again.Note that the alarm's movement and tilt detec- tors * are switched off at the same time.
The system is reset the next time the engine is started.

Speed-dependent steering force Speed related power steering causes the steer- ing wheel force to increase with the speed of thecar in order to give the driver enhanced sensitiv-ity.
On motorways the steering feels firmer. When parking and at low speed steering is light andrequires only a slight effort.
NOTE
In certain situations the power steering may become too hot and then needs to be tempo-rarily cooled - during this time the powersteering operates with reduced power andturning the steering wheel may then be per-ceived to be slightly heavier. In parallel with the temporarily reduced steer- ing assistance, the driver display shows amessage.
Change the steering force level *To select the steering force level, go to the "Drive modes" section and see the description at thealternative INDIVIDUAL under the heading"Selectable drive modes". For the car models without a drive mode control with its INDIVIDUAL option, the selection ofsteering force is instead made via the centre dis-play's top view and the following search path:

Roll Stability Control Roll Stability Control (RSC) is a stabiliser sys- tem that minimises the risk of overturning, forexample during sudden evasive manoeuvres or ifthe car skids.
The RSC system registers if and how much the car's lateral inclination changes. This informationis used to calculate the risk of the car overturn-ing. If the car is at risk, its electronic stability con-trol system engages, the engine torque isreduced and one or more wheels are braked untilthe car has regained its stability.
WARNING
Under normal driving conditions, the RSC sys- tem improves the car's road safety, but thismust not be taken as a reason to increasespeed. Always follow the normal precautionsfor safe driving.

Speed limiter *
A speed limiter (Speed Limiter — SL) can be regarded as a reverse cruise control — thedriver regulates the speed using the acceleratorpedal but is prevented by the speed limiter fromaccidentally exceeding a pre-selected/presetmaximum speed.

WARNING
The Speed Limiter is an aid and cannot deal with all traffic, weather and road conditions. The driver must always pay attention to traffic conditions and take action when the SpeedLimiter is not maintaining a suitable speed. The driver always has the ultimate responsibil- ity for the car being driven safely and inaccordance with applicable traffic rules andregulations, even when the Speed Limiterfunction is in use.

Automatic speed limiter *
The automatic speed limiter (Automatic Speed
Limiter - ASL) function helps the driver to adaptthe car's maximum speed to the speed shownon the road signs.
The speed limiter function (Speed Limiter — SL) can be changed to automatic speed limiter. The automatic speed limiter uses speed informa- tion from the Road Sign Information 3
function to
automatically adapt the car's maximum speed.
WARNING
The automatic speed limiter function is an aid, and does not work in all driving situations,traffic, weather and road conditions. The driveralways bears responsibility for maintaining thecorrect distance and speed, as well as whenthe automatic speed limiter is being used. Even if the driver clearly sees the speed-rela- ted road sign, the speed from the Road signinformation function many be incorrect - insuch cases the driver must intervene him/herself and accelerate or brake to a suitablespeed. See also the heading "Limitations for Road sign information".

Limitations of ASLAutomatic speed limitation takes place using speed information from the RSI 3
function - not
from the speed limit road signs that the car passes. If RSI 3
cannot interpret and provide speed infor-
mation to the ASL, then the ASL is set in standby mode and changes over to SL. In such cases thedriver must intervene and brake to a suitablespeed. The ASL will be reactivated when the RSI 3
func-
tion can once again interpret and provide speed information to the ASL. See also the heading "Limitations for Road Sign Information".

Distance Warning *
The Distance Warning function (Distance Alert) warns the driver if the time interval to the vehicleahead becomes too short.
Distance warning is active at speeds
above 30 km/h (20 mph) and only reacts to thevehicle ahead travelling in the same direction. Nodistance information is provided for oncoming,slow or stationary vehicles.
NOTE
Distance warning is deactivated during the time the adaptive cruise control is active.
WARNING
Distance warning only reacts if the distance to the vehicle ahead is shorter than the presetvalue - the speed of the driver's vehicle is notaffected.

Symbol for Distance Warning on the windscreen 4
.
In cars equipped with head-up display, a symbol is shown on the windscreen for as long as thetime interval to the vehicle ahead is shorter thanthe preset value. However, this presupposes that the
Show Driver Support function is activated
via settings in the car's menu system; see the heading "Head-up display" for how this works.
