Volvo On Call

Volvo On Call provides direct contact with the vehicle and extra comfort and assistance 24 hours a day.
The functions are available via the Volvo On Call app1 and the ON CALL and SOS button in the
vehicle's ceiling console:
It is possible to e.g. lock or unlock the vehicle or check the fuel level directly from a phone or other connected device via the Volvo On Call app. In the event of an accident, emergency assistance (ambulance, police, etc.) can be summoned to the vehicle, and roadside assistance can be called out in less critical situations, e.g. a flat tire.
NOTE
The SOS button should only be used in case of accident, illness or if there is an external threat to the vehicle and its passengers. The SOS function is only intended for emergency situations.
The ON CALL button can be used for all other services, including roadside assistance.

The Volvo On Call system

Volvo On Call is connected to the vehicle's safety and alarm systems and to other systems in the vehicle, such as lock and climate systems. The vehicle has an integrated modem for communica­tion with the Volvo On Call customer service cen­ter and the Volvo On Call app. The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is used to locate the vehicle.

Customer service center

To contact the Volvo On Call customer service center, press the ON CALL button or use the Volvo On Call app. You can also call the Volvo On Call service center by phone.

Getting started with Volvo On Call

This article describes what is required to get started with Volvo On Call.

Activating Volvo On Call

When the vehicle is picked up, the retailer will activate the Volvo On Call system and the owner will receive an automatically generated PIN code for Volvo On Call. The PIN code is used for security reasons to identify the owner of the vehi­cle (or another authorized person such as a fam­ily member) and works as a vehicle key.

Volvo On Call subscription

The vehicle must have a valid Volvo On Call sub­scription.
A free subscription is initiated when the vehicle is purchased and the system is activated. This sub­scription is valid for a limited time, but can be extended. Contact your Volvo retailer for more information.
NOTE
Automatic Crash Notification and the SOS button function even without a subscription.

Volvo ID and connecting the Volvo On Call app to the vehicle

A Volvo ID is required to use Volvo On Call. After creating a Volvo ID, the Volvo On Call app must be connected to the vehicle.

Buying a pre-owned vehicle with Volvo On Call

If you have purchased a pre-owned Volvo with Volvo On Call, it is important to delete the data from the previous owner and add you own details for the service to work. Visit a Volvo retailer for assistance.
