Volvo V60 Cross Country (2018 year). Manual - part 10

(see Detachable key blade – detaching/rein-
serting (p. 157) for instructions).

Keyless drive* – unlocking with key

blade

If the remote key does not function normally
(weak battery, etc.), the vehicle can be unlocked
with the detachable key blade.

Driver's door keyhole cover

1. Remove the key blade from the remote key

2. Press the key blade approx. 0.5 in. (1 cm)

straight up in the hole on the underside of
the keyhole cover.
> The cover will come off due to the pres-

sure exerted when the key blade is
pushed upward.

3. Insert the key blade as far as possible in the

driver's door lock. Turn the key blade to
unlock the driver's door. This will trigger the
alarm.

To turn off the alarm, insert the remote key
in the ignition slot. This also applies to vehi-
cles equipped with the optional keyless drive.

5. Press the cover back into place after the

door has been unlocked.

Keyless drive* – key memory

When you leave the vehicle with a remote key in
your possession and lock any door, the position
of the driver's seat

and door mirrors will be

stored in the remote key's memory.

The next time a door is opened by a person with
the same remote key in his/her possession, the
driver's seat and door mirrors will automatically
move to the position that they were in when the
door was most recently locked.

If several people carrying remote keys
approach the vehicle at the same time, the
driver's seat and door mirrors will assume the
positions they were in for the person who
opens the driver's door.

See also power seats (p. 84) for information on
adjusting and storing the seat's position in the
seat memory.

*– locking/unlocking (p. 161)

If the vehicle is locked by pressing the button
on one of the door handles or by pressing the
lock button on the remote key, or if it is left
unlocked for more than 30 minutes, the key
memory function will be deactivated.

To reactivate the key's memory:

•

Unlock the vehicle by pulling a door han-
dle with the remote key in your posses-
sion or by pressing the unlock button on
the remote key.

Different settings for unlocking the vehicle can
be selected, see Remote key – functions
(p. 155).

Be sure the remote key is outside of the vehi-
cle before the other doors/tailgate are closed
to help avoid locking the remote inside the
vehicle.

If the vehicle is equipped with the optional key-
less drive system, all doors/tailgate must be
closed before the vehicle can be locked.

The first press on the unlock button unlocks the

Manual locking

In certain situations (e.g., if there is no electrical
current in the vehicle), the doors can be locked
manually.

The detachable key blade (p. 157) can be used
in the lock cylinder in the driver's door to lock
that door.

The other doors do not have lock cylinders and
the slot on the rear edge of each door has to be
used to lock it. This will lock the door from the
outside but it can still be opened from inside the
vehicle. To do so:

Manually locking a door

–

Insert the key blade into the slot and turn it
90 degrees to lock that door (the slot in a
particular door locks that door only).

In the horizontal position, the door cannot be
opened from the outside.
In the vertical position, the door can be
opened from the inside and the outside.

opened from the outside or inside. The door
can only be unlocked with the remote key or
the central locking button.

DRIVER SUPPORT

Stability system – introduction

The Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system
consists of a number of functions designed to
help reduce wheel spin, counteract skidding and
to generally help improve directional stability.

A pulsating sound will be audible when
the system is actively operating and is
normal. Acceleration will also be
slightly slower than normal.

WARNING

•

The stability system (ESC) is intended to
help improve driving safety but cannot
deal with all situations, or traffic, road and
weather conditions. Speed and driving
style should always be adapted to the
current driving situation.

•

ESC supplements, but can never replace,
the driver's judgment and responsibility
when operating the vehicle. The driver is
always responsible for operating the vehi-
cle in a safe manner in accordance with
applicable traffic regulations.

ESC consists of the following functions:

•

Traction control

•

Spin control

•

Active Yaw Control

•

Engine Drag Control

•

Corner Traction Control

Traction Control (TC)

This function is designed to help reduce wheel
spin at low speeds by transferring power from a
drive wheel that begins to lose traction to the
wheel on the opposite side of the vehicle (on the
same axle).

Spin Control (SC)

The SC function is designed to help prevent the
drive wheels from spinning while the vehicle is
accelerating.

Active Yaw Control (AYC)

This function helps maintain directional stability,
for example when cornering, by braking one or
more of the wheels if the vehicle shows a ten-
dency to skid or slide laterally.

Corner Traction Control (CTC)

CTC compensates for understeering and helps
provide additional stability when accelerating
through a curve by preventing the inside wheel
from spinning. This is particularly useful when
accelerating on a curving highway on-ramp.

CTC is most effective if the stability system's
Sport mode is selected. See the section about
Sport mode.

Engine Drag Control (EDC)

EDC helps keep the engine running if the wheels
show a tendency to lock, e.g., when shifting down
in the Geartronic manual shifting mode or while
using the engine's braking function on a slippery
surface. If the engine were to stop, power steer-

ing would not function, making the vehicle more
difficult to steer.

Trailer Stability Assist (TSA)

The TSA helps stabilize a vehicle that is towing a
trailer when the vehicle and trailer have begun to
sway. See Trailer Stability Assist (TSA) (p. 294)
for more information.

This system is automatically deactivated if the
driver selects Sport mode.

Stability system – operation

Operation

Sport mode

The stability system is always activated and can-
not be switched off.

However, the driver can select
Sport mode, which offers more
active driving characteristics.

Sport mode can be selected in
the MY CAR menus, see My
Car – introduction (p. 79).

In Sport mode, the engine management system
monitors movement of the accelerator pedal and
steering wheel for sportier driving by allowing
more lateral movement of the rear wheels before
ESC is activated.

Under certain circumstances, such as when driv-
ing with snow chains, or driving in deep snow or
loose sand, it may be advisable to temporarily use
Sport mode for maximum tractive force.

If the driver releases pressure on the accelerator
pedal, ETC will also activate to help stabilize the
vehicle.

To switch to Sport mode:

Sport mode remains active until the driver
switches it off in the menu or until the engine is
switched off. ETC will return to normal mode
when the engine is restarted.
