WARNING! |
NOTE:
pg. 45 Electrically operated convertible top, Wind deflector
Installing the wind deflector:
WARNING! Your car is equipped with a central locking system. The key, used on the driver's door,
the remote control or central locking button, will lock/unlock both doors and the trunk.
· Turn the key once to unlock the
driver's door only.
· Turn the key again (within 10
seconds) to unlock both doors and the trunk.
WARNING! Each of the keys supplied with your car contains a coded transmitter and
receiver (transponder). The code in the key is
transmitted to an antenna in the ignition switch
where it is compared to the code stored in the
start inhibitor module. The car can only be started
if a properly coded key is used.
If you misplace a key, take the other keys to
an authorized Volvo retailer. The existing code in the start inhibitor module and all the keys
will be erased as an antitheft measure and a new code will be programmed in.
NOTE:
Not more than one of the keys for your car should be kept on the same key ring.
This could cause conflicting signals to be
transmitted to the ignition switch, making it
impossible to start the car.
The key number codes are stamped on a separate tag supplied with the keys. This
tag should be separated from the key ring and kept in a safe place. Your car is equipped with a remote control transmitter. This transmitter uses a radio
frequency which will allow "keyless" entry
into the passenger compartment or the trunk. You will be supplied with two coded key ring
transmitters, which will enable you to lock/unlock both doors and the trunk from a distance of
10-15 feet (3-5 meters).
On vehicles equipped with an alarm, the alarm will also be activated/deactivated by
this system.
The car can also be locked/unlocked with the
key.
As an extra security precaution in certain
situations (valet parking, etc.), Volvo recommends that the transmitter not be included when
the keys are given to anyone. The service key can
be used instead. If one of the transmitters is misplaced, contact the nearest authorized
Volvo retailer for assistance.
WARNING! * See also on page 48.
The radio signal emitted from the transmitter, which is used to set/unset the alarm, is
a "rolling code" signal. This means that
the signal is changed randomly for each transmission and is intended to help prevent
unauthorized recording of the code.
When armed (set), the alarm continuously monitors a number of points on the car.
The following conditions will set off the alarm:
Press the LOCK button on the remote control, lock the car using the key in the driver's
door or press the central lock button on one of
the doors with the door open. One long flash of
the turn signals will confirm that the alarm is set.
Press the UNLOCK button on the remote control or unlock the doors with the key.
If the alarm is sounding, it can be stopped by pressing the UNLOCK button on the
remote control or by unlocking the driver's door
with the key.
If the alarm is stopped with the remote
control, this will be confirmed by two short
flashes from the turn signals.
In an emergency situation, this feature can be used to attract attention.
Activate the "panic" function by pressing
the red panic button on the remote control for at least 3 seconds or by pressing this button
twice within 3 seconds. The turn signals will
flash, the interior lights will go on and the alarm
will sound.
The function can be turned off by pressing any of the buttons on the remote control
or will stop automatically after 25 seconds.
NOTE: This button will NOT unlock the car.
An audible alarm signal is given either by a separate alarm horn or by the optional
backup siren. One alarm cycle lasts for 30 seconds.
The visual alarm signal is given by flashing
all turn signals and turning on the interior
lighting for approximately 5 minutes.
If only the driver's door is unlocked with the remote control, the lock will
automatically reengage (re-lock) and the alarm will
reset after 2 minutes unless the door has been opened.
Temporarily disconnecting the alarm sensor(s)
In certain situations it may be desirable to disconnect the
optional alarm sensors, particularly the inclination sensor, if,
for example, you drive your car onto a ferry where the rocking of the boat could trigger the alarm.
To temporarily disconnect the sensor(s) from the alarm system:
The car can then be locked in the usual way to set the alarm.
NOTE: The sensors will automatically be reconnected to the alarm system the next
time the ignition is switched on. The status of the alarm system is indicated by the red LED at the top center of the dash:
Each remote transmitter is powered by a three-volt battery, type CR 2016. If the range of
the transmitter is noticeably reduced, this
indicates that the battery is weak and should be replaced.
Replacement: Remove the battery cover on
the back of the transmitter with a coin. Replace
the battery. Reinstall the cover, making sure it
is secured tightly to help protect the transmitter.
1 Lumbar support
WARNING! Three seat positions can be programmed. To program a seat position:
NOTE: The seat has an overload protector which engages if an object blocks
the movement of the seat. If this happens, remove the object and wait 20 seconds
before operating the seat again.
WARNING! Movement of the seat can be STOPPED at any time by pressing any button on
the power seat control panel.
Tilting the backrest
The backrests are locked in the upright position and can be
tilted forward to allow access to the rear seat.
Moving the seat forward
To exit the rear seat:
* If the backrest is in the upright position, the seat will slide
rearward until the strap is released. The front section of the seat can be adjusted
to 7 different height settings (lever A) and the
rear section can be adjusted to 9 different height settings (lever B).
2 Forward-rearward seat adjustment
Pull the bar upward, then slide the seat
forward or rearward to the desired position. Make
sure that the seat is properly secured when you release the bar.
3 Backrest tilt

See page 106 for fault tracing information and instructions on
manually raising the convertible top.
· The trunk cannot be opened and the
power windows/power antenna cannot be operated while the convertible top is
being raised/lowered.
CAUTION:
· Be sure there is sufficient
clearance above the car before raising/lowering the convertible top.
· Volvo recommends that you raise the convertible top and close the
windows when you leave the car to help deter thefts and to protect the interior
from rain, windblown dust, etc.
· No objects should be placed in the convertible top storage
compartment. This could damage the convertible top mechanism.
· Roof racks may not be attached to or placed on the convertible top. See
page 74 for information on trunk-mounted luggage racks.
· Ice scrapers should not be used to remove snow from the convertible top.
· Do not lower the convertible top if it
is frozen. The top should not be raised/lowered if the temperature is below
32° F (0° C).
· The top should be completely dry before it is lowered and stored in
the storage compartment to help prevent damage from mildew.
See page 111 for information on cleaning the convertible top.
Wind deflector (option/accessory)
· Fold out the panels on the sides of
the wind deflector (1).
· Slide the two metal slats on the
wind deflector under the rear seat head restraints (2). Slide them carefully to avoid
damaging the upholstery.
· Press the catches (3) into the holes provided in the side panel until they
click into place.
· Raise the wind deflector (4) 90°.
NOTE: The panels on the sides of the wind deflector can be folded under so that
the deflector can be stored in the trunk. The catches (3) must be pushed in (toward
the center of the car) before the panels can be folded.
The wind deflector must be securely attached to help avoid injury to the occupants of the car or to other motorists.
Doors and locks
One turn with the key towards lock in the drivers door locks both doors and
the trunk.
· Use the switch on the front door
armrests to lock/unlock the car from the inside.
Check the action of the button on the other door to verify its function (lock/ unlock).
If the doors are locked while driving, this may hinder rapid access to
the occupants of the car in the event of an accident. (Also see information on
"Child safety locks").
NOTE:
· If a door is not closed completely,
the courtesy lights will stay on and a chime will sound until the door is closed.
· As an added anti-theft measure, new
keys have been developed which may take slightly longer to copy or replace if
the original keys are misplaced. Duplicate keys may be ordered from your
Volvo retailer.
