Storage spaces
The warning triangle is located in the compartment on the inside of the tailgate.
Folding up the warning triangle

- Press the latch that secures the warning triangle slightly to the right and remove the case.
- Remove the warning triangle from the case, unfold it, and put the ends together.
- Fold out the warning triangle’s support legs.
- Follow the regulations for the use of a warning triangle. Position the warning triangle in a suitable place with regard to traffic.
- Make sure that the warning triangle and case are properly secured in their storage space and that the hatch is fully closed after use.
- Press the key’s button.
- The tailgate is unlocked but remains closed.
- The side doors are still locked and the alarm is armed. The lock and alarm indicator on the instrument panel extinguish in order to show that the entire car is not locked.
- You can open the tailgate by gripping the rubberized pressure plate underneath its lower edge.
- 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 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
(Option/accessory.)
To adjust max. opening
- Open the tailgate manually – and stop it in the desired opening position.
- Press and hold the 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 a half-open tailgate.
Reset max. opening
- Open the tailgate manually to the fully open position.
- Press and hold the button on the bottom 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
If the car is equipped with keyless locking and unlocking then you can unlock the tailgate using a foot movement.
The function with both opening and closing of the tailgate is also available when the car is equipped with a 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 a power-operated tailgate.
One of the car’s keys must be within range behind the car, approx. 1 meter (3 feet), for opening and closing, to be possible. This also applies to an already unlocked car in order to avoid accidental opening e.g. in a car wash.
Opening and closing with foot movement
- Make one forward kicking motion in the sensor area under the rear bumper. Then take a step back. The bumper must not be touched.
- A short acoustic signal sounds when opening or closing is activated – the tailgate is opened/closed.
- If several kicking motions take place without a key sufficiently close, the opening will not be possible until after a certain delay.
- Do not leave your foot in the kicking motion under the car, this could cause the activation to fail.
Canceling opening or closing with foot movement
Make one forward kicking motion while opening or closing is in progress.
Opening or closing the tailgate is stopped.
The key does not need to be in the vicinity of the car to cancel the opening or closing of the tailgate.
If the tailgate is stopped close to the closed position, the next activation will open the tailgate.
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
- Press the 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 button depressed for a couple of seconds.
The tailgate is opened.
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
- 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:
- Press gently on the rubberised pressure plate beneath the tailgate handle.
- The lock is released.
- Lift by the outside handle in order to open the tailgate.
- 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 the cargo area
- The central electrical unit is located under the storage compartment on the right-hand side.
- Special pliers are housed on the inside of the cover to facilitate the replacement of tripped fuses.
- The fuse box in the engine compartment also provides space for several spare fuses.
Positions
The positions of the fuses 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 multiple table values, it is due to variations in equipment level. In which case, follow the value of the fuse being replaced. In the event of doubt – contact a workshop. An authorized Volvo workshop is recommended.
