Opening and closing the bonnet
The bonnet can be opened using the handle in the passenger compartment and a handle under the bonnet.
Open the bonnet
 | Pull the handle on the left of the brake pedal in order to release the bonnet from fully closed position. |
 | Move the handle under the bonnet upwards to release the bonnet from the lock catch and lift the bonnet. |
Warning - bonnet not closed
When the bonnet is released, a warning symbol and graphics in the driver display will light up and an acoustic reminder will sound. If the car starts rolling, an acoustic warning signal will repeat.
Note
If the warning symbol is lit or the warning signal is heard despite the bonnet being closed properly, contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
Close the bonnet
Push the bonnet down until it starts to fall from its own weight.
When the bonnet stops against the lock catch, push the bonnet to close it completely.
Warning
Risk of crushing! Ensure that the closing path under the bonnet is not obstructed, otherwise there is a risk of personal injury.
Warning
Check that the bonnet locks properly when closed. The bonnet must engage at both sides audibly.
Warning
Never drive with an open bonnet!
If this symbol is visible – or something else indicates that the bonnet is not fully closed while driving – stop immediately and close it properly.
