Contact an authorized Volvo workshop if the 12 V battery needs to be replaced.
Important
12 V terminal
In the event of a total loss of power, the vehicle can't be unlocked, as the locks are electrically operated. To access the vehicle and charge it, the vehicle can be powered for a short time using the externally accessible 12 V terminal. It is accessed by removing a small panel by the left front wheel housing.
Before any use of the 12 V terminal, consider the following:
- Volvo recommends that the 12 V terminal only be used by service technicians for the purpose of accessing the vehicle as part of immobilization recovery.
- Only use a 12 V charger with a maximum charging current below 30 A.
- Do not connect another 12 V battery to the terminal.
- Connecting any power source that delivers current higher than 30 A will blow the fuse and thus disable it.
- Only use the 12 V terminal for short amounts of time. This is not meant as a way of powering the vehicle continuously.
