The alarm system

The alarm is automatically armed whenever the

car is locked with the remote control, or if a

front lock button is depressed.

When armed, the alarm continuously monitors

a number of points on the car. The following

conditions will trigger the alarm:

•

The hood is forced open.

•

The trunk is forced open.

•

A door is forced open.

•

The ignition switch is tampered with

•

An attempt is made to start the car with a

non-approved key (a key not coded to the

car's ignition).

•

If there is movement in the passenger com-

partment (if the car is equipped with the

optional movement sensor).

•

The car is lifted or towed (if the car is equip-

ped with the optional inclination sensor)

•

The battery is disconnected (while the

alarm is armed).

•

The siren is disconnected when the alarm

is disarmed.

•

The alarm system functions in the same

way, regardless of whether the power

retractable hard top is raised or lowered.

The alarm indicator light

Alarm indicator light

The status of the alarm system is indicated by

the indicator light on at the top of the dash-

board (see the illustration):

•

Indicator light off – the alarm is not armed

•

The indicator light flashes every two sec-

onds – the alarm is armed

•

The indicator light flashes rapidly before

the ignition is switched on – the alarm has

been triggered. The message "ALARM

TRIGGERED, CHECK CAR" will also be

displayed.

•

Fault in the alarm system: If a fault has

been detected in the alarm system, a mes-

sage will be shown in the information dis-

play. Contact your Volvo retailer to have

the alarm system inspected and repaired if

necessary.

Arming the alarm

Press the LOCK button on the remote control,

or press the central lock button on one of the

front doors with the door open. One long flash

of the turn signals will confirm that the alarm is

armed.

Disarming the alarm

Press the UNLOCK button on the remote con-

trol or insert the key in the ignition

to disarm

the alarm. Two short flashes from the car's

direction indicators confirm that the alarm has

been deactivated and that all doors are

unlocked.

On vehicles with the optional keyless drive, press in the start control in the ignition switch.
