Volvo ID
Volvo ID is your personal ID that provides
access to various services6.
The incorrect connection and installation of
accessories and extra equipment can nega-

Examples of services:
Certain accessories only function when asso-

that you always contact an authorised Volvo
workshop before installing accessories or
