Get Locks and alarm -> Locking/unlocking Guide for Volvo Xc70 SUV Third Generation (2025-2026)

02 Locks and alarm

Locking/unlocking

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.

From the outside

The remote control key can lock/unlock all

doors and the tailgate simultaneously. Different

sequences for unlocking can be selected, see

"Unlocking with the remote control key" page

47.

In order that the lock sequence can be acti-

vated, the driver's door must be closed - if any

of the other doors or the tailgate is open, then

it/they is/are locked and the alarm is activated

only when it/they are closed. With the Key-

less* system all the doors and tailgate must be

closed.

NOTE

Be aware of the risk of locking the remote

control key in the car.

If it is not possible to lock/unlock with the

remote control key, the battery may be dis-

charged - lock or unlock the driver's door with

the detachable key blade, see page 49.

NOTE

Remember that the alarm is triggered when

the door is opened after being unlocked

with the key blade - the alarm is switched

off when the remote control key is inserted

into the ignition switch.

WARNING

Be aware of the risk of being locked in the

car when it is locked from the outside using

the remote control key - it is then not pos-

sible to open any of the doors from the

inside with the door controls. Read more

about this in the section "Deadlocks" later

on.

Automatic relocking

If none of the doors or the tailgate is opened

within 2 minutes of unlocking, all are locked

again automatically. This function reduces the

risk that the car is left unlocked unintentionally.

and then release the tailgate - the pro-

gramming is complete.

•

To clear the programming - move the tail-

control key and are set after an approximately

10 second delay after the doors have been

locked.

the sequence is interrupted and the alarm is
