How to Set the Lock Sound for Volvo Cars?
3 Answers
To set the lock sound for a Volvo car, simultaneously press and hold the lock and unlock buttons for three seconds. Volvo's automotive brands include: Volvo V60, Volvo S60, Volvo S60 Hybrid, Volvo S90, and Volvo S90 Hybrid. Taking the Volvo V60 as an example, here are some relevant details: 1. The dimensions of this car are 4761mm in length, 1850mm in width, and 1437mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2872mm. 2. The car is equipped with a 2.0TL4 engine, featuring turbocharged intake, delivering a maximum horsepower of 197ps and a maximum torque of 300nm. The body type is a 5-door, 5-seat station wagon, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
I just figured this out last week when helping my neighbor adjust his XC60. The Volvo lock confirmation beep setting is actually hidden in the center console screen. First tap the 'Settings' icon in the lower left corner of the screen, scroll down to find the 'Vehicle' menu, then select the 'Central Locking' option. Inside, there's a 'Lock Confirmation Signal' toggle - turn it on and you'll hear a 'beep' when locking. Important note: if silent mode was previously activated or the approach lighting function is enabled, this confirmation sound might be disabled. Menu locations vary slightly by model year, but it's generally within the vehicle settings section. If you still can't find it, checking the paper manual in the glove compartment will definitely help.
Volvo has a pretty thoughtful little feature where you can customize the lock confirmation sound. I prefer hearing a beep when locking the car for peace of mind. The setup is quite intuitive: Sit in the driver's seat without pressing the brake, just press the start button to power on, swipe right on the central display's home screen to enter the settings center, select the car icon in 'Vehicle Status', scroll to 'Door Lock Settings' in the list, and check 'Lock Sound Feedback' to activate it. It's even simpler for older models with physical buttons—just hold down both the lock and unlock buttons on the key fob for five seconds until the car lights flash twice. This comes in handy when locating your car in parking garages—just press the key fob to follow the sound.
