key to lock the vehicle.
To activate the locking sequence, the driver's door must be closed1. If any of the other doors or the tailgate are open, they will be locked and the alarm will be armed once they are closed.
NOTE
Be aware of the risk of locking the remote key in the vehicle.

- If the remote key or Care Key is left in the vehicle, it will be deactivated even if the vehicle is locked using Volvo On Call, and will be reactivated when the vehicle is unlocked using Volvo On Call or another valid key.
