Settings for locking and unlocking

Note

Different settings affect how and when your vehicle is locked. Make sure to familiarize yourself with the different options and how they affect the locking and unlocking behaviors.

Proximity lock

You can choose whether your vehicle should automatically unlock when you approach it and lock when you're walking away from it with the Proximity lock setting. For this feature to work, you need to carry a recognized distance-capable key.

General locking behavior

You can customize many of your vehicle's general locking behaviors. For example, you can turn feedback responses on or off and choose whether all of the doors should unlock automatically when you park.

It's also possible to choose which doors unlock when you use the touch points on the driver's door handle.

Note

When the Proximity lock setting is enabled, all of the doors unlock or lock simultaneously when you approach or leave the vehicle with a distance-capable key. Disable the Proximity lock setting if you want to select which doors unlock.

Presence reminder

The presence reminder setting allows the vehicle to remind you that there might be passengers, pets or belongings still in the vehicle when you open the driver's door after a drive. You can turn these reminders off temporarily.

Note

Once you disable the presence reminder setting, your vehicle won't give you any reminders until your next drive.

Warning

Volvo recommends that you do not leave people or pets in a locked vehicle.

Some regions have laws prohibiting people or pets being left inside a locked vehicle.
