Getting started with Volvo On Call*
Exploring the Volvo Cars app
Before you collect your car from the dealer, we recommend that you download the free Volvo Cars app and test in demo mode. The demo mode allows you to explore the majority of functions and provides information on how the app is used.
Activation of Volvo On Call
When the car is collected, the retailer activates the Volvo On Call system and the owner receives an automatically generated PIN code for Volvo On Call. This PIN code is used for security reasons to identify the owner (or another approved person such as a family member) and works like a car key.
Volvo On Call subscription
For the functions to work, the car must have an active Volvo On Call subscription.
The subscription is initiated in connection with the purchase of the car when the system is activated. The subscription has a time limit but can be extended, and validity is market dependent. Among other things, the subscription can be extended in the Volvo Cars app. Make sure that everybody has access to the car's vehicle identification number (VIN).
Note
Volvo ID and linking the Volvo Cars app to the car
In order to use the Volvo Cars app, you need a Volvo ID. When a Volvo ID has been created, the app needs to be linked to the car.
Note
Buying a used car with Volvo On Call
When buying a used car with Volvo On Call, it is important to delete data from the previous owner and add your own details to make the service work. Visit a Volvo dealer for assistance.
