The functions are available via the Volvo Cars app2 as well as the ON CALL button and the SOS button in the roof of the car:
For example, you can lock and unlock the car directly from a phone via the Volvo Cars app. If an accident occurs, emergency assistance can be sent to the car, e.g. ambulance or police. Roadside assistance can be called for less urgent problems, such as a puncture.
Note
The SOS button must only be used in the event of accident, illness or an external threat against the car and its passengers. The SOS function is only intended for emergency situations. Abuse may lead to supplementary charges.
The Volvo Cars app and ON CALL button can be used for all other services3, including roadside assistance.
Volvo On Call system
Volvo On Call is linked to the car's safety and alarm systems as well as other systems in the car, such as locking and climate control. The car has a built-in modem for communication with a Volvo On Call service centre and the Volvo Cars app. GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) is used to locate the car.
