User guide

Notes:
The function is based on the vehicle position transmitted by the car one minute after
the key has been removed from the key slot or, for key less vehicles, one minute
after the key is no longer in contact with the vehicle.
The positioning of the vehicle is done using a GPS device. The accuracy of a GPS
device is strongly connected to strength of the GPS signals and the number of
received signals.
Volvo On Call uses GSM/GPRS to communicate the position. If the vehicle is parked
in a location where no GSM/GPRS coverage is obtained the new position will not be
emitted. Hence the system will presume that the vehicle is located at the last
transmitted position. The day and time of the displayed position is indicated on the
screen.
It requires a compatible smart phone device with GPS receiver.
Honk & Blink
Due to that the GPS technology isn’t always accurate enough to pinpoint the exact location
of your vehicle on a large parking lot, you can use the “Honk & Blink” feature which triggers
the honk and flashing lights in your vehicle for a few seconds so you can easily locate it.
Note: The vehicle requires you to be within approx. 100m from it to be able to use this
function.
Status - Doors
The Remote Door Lock Status function provides a way to ensure that your vehicle has been
locked and that all doors and windows are fully closed.
Subsequently it enables you to lock your vehicle remotely. This action will engage the alarm
but not the deadlock, making it possible to open the vehicle from the inside for safety
reasons.
In a similar way you can unlock your vehicle. To avoid accidental unlock of the car it
requires someone to physically pull the handle of the luggage compartment in order for the
vehicle to unlock itself. If this is not done within two minutes the luggage compartment door
will relock itself automatically.
For security reasons the application will always require the PIN code to open the car
remotely even if it has been stored in the phone.
Notes:
VOC uses GSM/GPRS to communicate. If no connection can be established towards the
vehicle, the function will NOT perform as expected.
The function will not start immediately, the function relies on SMS being delivered to the
vehicle that will take typically 5-10 seconds.
Door/Window status: The tailgate and sunroof/convertible roof are not included in the status
shown and cannot be detected, i.e. it will indicate closed doors even if those are open.
The doors view and functionality is not available on XC90.
