2022 Volvo V60 Cargo area

2022-Volvo-V60-Product-Image

Cargo area

The car has a flexible cargo area that makes it possible to transport and secure large objects.

By folding down the backrests in the rear seat, the cargo area can become quite spacious. Use load retaining eyelets or bag holders to secure the load, and the extendable cargo cover to conceal the load if desired.

The car’s towing eye and puncture repair kit or spare wheel are stored under the cargo area floor.

Bag hooks

Bag hooks keep carrier bags in place and prevent them from overturning and spreading their contents across the cargo area.

Along the sides

2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-01

There are two bag hooks in the side panel on each side of the cargo area.

Important
The bag hooks may be loaded with a maximum of 5 kg (11 lbs).

Under the floor hatch

2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-02

There are two bag hooks and an elastic strap in the cover, which is part of the floor hatch in the cargo area. The strap can be fitted in four different positions.

Lift up the cover in order to use the bag hooks. Fasten the bags in a suitable position with the enclosed elastic strap. If the bags have handles and are a suitable height – hang them in the hooks.

First aid kit

The first aid kit contains first aid equipment.

Store the first aid kit in an appropriate place in the cargo area, e.g. in the space on the right-hand side. The first aid kit has Velcro straps and can be attached directly to the panel.

Load retaining eyelets

Use the load retaining eyelets to attach straps in order to anchor items in the cargo area.

Unlocking the tailgate with a key button

There is a button on the key to unlock the tailgate only.

2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-07
  1. Press the key’s 2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-08 button.

The tailgate is unlocked and can be opened from the outside.

The side doors are still locked and the alarm is armed. The lock and alarm indicator on the instrument panel extinguishes in order to show that the entire car is not locked.

If the tailgate is not opened within 2 minutes then it is relocked and the alarm is re-armed.

Power operated tailgate

Hold the key’s 2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-08 button depressed for a couple of seconds.

The tailgate is unlocked and opened, while the side doors remain locked and their alarm functions armed.

Note
If the system for the power operated tailgate works continuously for a long time, it is deactivated in order not to overload it. It can be used again after a few minutes.

Setting the max. opening for electrically operated tailgate

Set the amount the tailgate should be opened if the car is, for example, parked in a garage with limited headroom.

To adjust max. opening

  1. Open the tailgate manually – and stop it in the desired opening position.
  2. Press and hold 2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-12 button on the bottom of the tailgate for approx. 3 seconds.

Two acoustic signals sound to indicate that the set position has been saved.

Note
It is not possible to program an opening position lower than half-open tailgate.

Reset max. opening

  1. Open the tailgate manually to the fully open position.
  2. Press and hold the 2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-12 button on the underside of the tailgate for approx. 3 seconds.

Two acoustic signals sound to indicate that the set position has been cleared.

Operating the tailgate with foot movement

The tailgate can be opened and closed using a foot movement under the rear bumper. The function makes things easier when your hands are full.

If the car is equipped with keyless locking and unlocking then you can unlock the tailgate with a foot movement.

The function with both opening and closing of the tailgate is also available when the car is equipped with power operated tailgate.

Note
The foot-operated tailgate function is available in two versions:

  • Opening and closing with foot movement
  • Only unlocking with foot movement (lift up the tailgate manually to open it)

Note that the function for opening and closing with foot movement requires power operated tailgate.

2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-09The detector is located on the left-hand side of the bumper.

One of the car’s keys must be within range behind the car, approx. 1 metre (3 feet). This also applies when the car is unlocked.

Opening and closing with foot movement

2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-10Kicking motion within the detector’s activation area.

Make one forward kicking motion under the left part of the rear bumper. The bumper must not be touched. Then take a step back.

A short acoustic signal sounds when the tailgate is opened/closed.

If several kicking motions are made without a key within range, the function is deactivated after a while.

Do not leave your foot positioned under the car during the kicking motion. The activation may then fail.

Cancelling opening or closing with foot movement

Make one forward kicking motion while opening or closing is in progress in order to stop the movement of the tailgate.

The key does not need to be in range to cancel opening or closing.

If the tailgate is stopped just before being fully closed, it will open on the next activation.

Note
Make sure you keep the area around the foot movement detector clean. A build-up of dirt, ice or snow may disrupt its function.

Note
Pay attention to the possibility that the system may be activated in a car wash if the key is within range.

Unlocking the tailgate from the inside of the car

The tailgate can be unlocked from inside the car using a button beside the steering wheel on the instrument panel.

2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-11

Briefly press the 2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-12 button on the instrument panel.

The tailgate is unlocked and can be opened from the outside.

With the power operated tailgate option:

Hold the instrument panel’s 2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-12 button depressed for a couple of seconds.

The tailgate is opened.

Note
If the system for the power operated tailgate works continuously for a long time, it is deactivated in order not to overload it. It can be used again after a few minutes.

Keyless unlocking of the tailgate

With keyless locking and unlocking, it is sufficient to press lightly on the rubberised pressure plate underneath on the tailgate handle to unlock.

Note
One of the car’s keys must be within range behind the car for unlocking to work.

The tailgate is held closed by an electrical lock.

To open:

  1. Press gently on the rubberised pressure plate beneath the tailgate handle.
  2. The lock is released.
  3. Lift by the outside handle in order to open the tailgate.

Important

  • Handle the rubber panel with care to avoid damage to its electrical contact. Minimal force is required for activation.
  • Do not exert the lifting force on the rubber panel when opening – lift the handle.

It is also possible to unlock the tailgate with a foot movement under the rear bumper, see separate section.

Warning
Do not drive with an open tailgate! Toxic exhaust fumes could be drawn into the car through the cargo area.

Fuses in cargo area

Fuses in the cargo area protect, amongst other things, power seats, airbags and seatbelt tensioners.

2022-Volvo-V60-Cargo-area-Fig-13The central electrical unit is located behind the panel on the right-hand side.

The fuse box in the engine compartment also provides space for several spare fuses.

Positions

Fuse locations are shown on the inside of the cover. Functions and components in the fuse table cover several models and engine alternatives. A fuse description can therefore apply to fewer than those in the table, or be completely missing, depending on how the car is equipped.

If a position has several values in the table, the value depends on variations in equipment level. In which case, follow the value of the fuse being replaced. In the event of doubt – contact a workshop. An authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.
