Alarm*
The alarm is a device that warns in the event of
e.g. a break-in in the car.
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 open or if the
passenger compartment heater is used.
> The information display shows the mes-
sage Rear child lock activated and the
button's lamp illuminates - the locks are
active.
Activated alarm is triggered if:
a door, the bonnet or the tailgate is opened11
•
When the electric child safety lock is active then
the rear:
a movement is detected in the passenger
compartment (if fitted with a movement
detector*)
•
•
To avoid this: Close the window when leaving
the car. If the car's integrated passenger
compartment heater (or a portable electric
heater) shall be used - direct the airflow from
the air vents so that they are not pointing
upwards in the passenger compartment.
Alternatively, reduced alarm level can be used,
Reduced alarm level* (p. 180).
windows can only be opened with the driver's
door control panel
•
the car is raised or towed away (if fitted with
a tilt detector*)
doors cannot be opened from inside.
•
the starter battery's cable is disconnected
the siren is disconnected.

The current setting is stored when the engine is
switched off - if the child safety locks are acti-
vated at engine shutdown, the function will
remain activated the next time the engine is
started.
If there is a fault in the alarm system then the
information display in the combined instrument
panel shows a message. In which case, contact a
workshop - an authorised Volvo workshop is rec-
ommended.
