WARNING
Never use the transmitter to lock the doors
from inside the vehicle.
•Doing so would ACTIVATE:
•the break-in alarm, which would sound
if one of the doors were opened
•the optional interior motion and inclina-
tion alarm sensors.
•Doing so would DEACTIVATE:
•the moonroof and interior courtesy light
controls.
•the central locking buttons on the front
door armrests, although the interior
door handles would still function to
allow occupants to leave the vehicle.
•Disabled features would remain disa-
bled until the remote is used again to
unlock the vehicle.
•In addition, locking an occupied vehicle
would hinder rapid access to the occu-
pants in an accident or emergency.
Replacing the battery in the remote keyIf the range of the transmitter is noticeably
reduced, this indicates that the battery is weak
and should be replaced.
To replace the battery:1. Carefully pry open the rear edge of the
cover with a small screwdriver.
2. Insert a new 3-volt, CR2032 battery, with
the battery's plus side up. Avoid touching
the contact surfaces of the battery with
your fingers.
3. Press the cover back into place. Ensure
that the rubber seal is correctly positioned
to help keep out moisture.
NOTE
The old battery should be disposed of prop-
erly at a recycling center or at your Volvo
retailer.

Alarm
05
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.133
The alarm is automatically armed whenever
you lock your vehicle.
When armed, the alarm continuously monitors
a number of points on the vehicle. The follow-
ing conditions will set off the alarm:
•The hood is forced open.
•The tailgate is forced open.
•A door is forced open.
•The ignition switch is tampered with.
•If there is movement in the passenger com-
partment (if the vehicle is equipped with
the optional movement sensor).
•The vehicle is lifted or towed (if the vehicle
is equipped with the optional inclination
sensor).
•The battery is disconnected (while the
alarm is armed).
•The siren is disconnected when the alarm
is disarmed.
Arming the alarm1.
Press the LOCK button on the remote key.
2. Lock the vehicle using the key blade in the
driver's door or press the central lock but-
ton on the driver's door with the door open.
One long flash of the turn signals will confirm
that the alarm is armed.
Movement sensor*In addition to triggering the alarm if there is
movement in the passenger compartment,
currents of air may also affect the movement
sensor. This means that locking the vehicle
with the windows or the moonroof open, or
using an accessory portable passenger com-
partment heater, could trigger the alarm.
To help avoid this, close the windows and
moonroof before locking the vehicle. If a pas-
senger compartment heater is used when the
vehicle is locked, direct airflow from the heat-
er's vent(s) so that it isn't directed upward in
the passenger compartment.
Disarming the alarmPress the UNLOCK button on the remote key
or unlock the doors with the key blade.
Turning off (stopping) the alarmIf the alarm is sounding, it can be stopped by
pressing the UNLOCK button on the remote
key or by unlocking the driver's door with the
key blade.

turn signals and turning on the interior lighting
for approximately 5 minutes.
Audible alarm signalAn audible alarm signal is given by a battery
powered siren. One alarm cycle lasts for
25 seconds.
"Panic" buttonIn an emergency situation, this feature can be
used to attract attention.
Activate the "panic" button by pressing the red
button on the remote key ( see page 127 for
illustration) for at least 3 seconds or by press-
ing this button twice within 3 seconds. The turn
signals will flash, and the vehicle's horn will
sound.
The function can be turned off by pressing any
of the buttons on the remote key or will stop
automatically after 25 seconds. When a button
is pressed, there is a 5 second delay before the
panic alarm is deactivated.
NOTE
This button will NOT unlock the vehicle.
LED alarm status signalsThe status of the alarm system is indicated by
the red LED at the top of the dash:
•LED off – the alarm is not armed
•LED flashes once per second – the alarm
is armed
