Activating and deactivating private locking

Private locking has two codes:

Enter the security code before using for the first time

A security code needs to be selected during the first time the function is used. It can then be used to deactivate private locking if the selected PIN code has been forgotten or lost. The security code acts as a PUK code for all subsequent PIN codes set for the private locking function.

Save the security code in a safe place.

To create a security code:

Press the button for private locking in the function view.

A pop-up window is shown.

Enter the preferred security code and press Confirm.

The security code is saved. The private locking function is now ready for activation.

Activate private locking

Press the button for private locking in the function view.

A pop-up window is shown.

Enter the code to be used in order to unlock the tailgate after locking and tap on Confirm.

The tailgate is locked. Confirmation of locking takes place by means of a green indicator being shown by the button in the function view.

Deactivate private locking

Press the button for private locking in the function view.

A pop-up window is shown.

Enter the code that was used for locking and tap on Confirm.

The tailgate is unlocked. Confirmation of unlocking takes place by means of the green indicator by the button in the function view extinguishing.

Forgotten PIN code

If the PIN code has been forgotten or the wrong PIN code has been entered more than three times, the security code can be used to deactivate private locking.

If the car is unlocked via Volvo On Call* or the Volvo On Call app, private locking will be automatically deactivated.
