How to turn the rear child locks on and off in a Volvo EX60
Check the rear-door setting before a journey with children. The display procedure has specific conditions, so a control that will not activate may need a closed rear window rather than repeated taps.
Checked against the US EX60 2027 manual on 27 October 2026. Match the controls to your car and use its current in-car instructions if a software update changes the screen.
With the EX60 stationary and rear windows closed, select vehicle symbol → Controls → Locking → Child lock and press the child-lock symbols. The instrument panel shows a confirmation symbol.
Close the rear windows and stop the vehicle
The manual allows activation only while the car is stationary and the rear windows are closed. Check those conditions first. Child locks complement appropriate restraints and supervision; they do not replace either responsibility.
Activate and confirm the rear locks
Tick steps as you go. Your progress stays in this tab.
Switching the function off
Follow the same menu path. Deactivation requires the car to be stationary with the driver seated in the driver’s seat. The manual also offers child-lock control through quick controls. Confirm the intended state when changing who uses the rear seats.
Common questions
What does the active lock prevent?+
The manual says window controls are disabled and rear occupants cannot open the rear doors; unlocked doors remain accessible from outside.
Will the rear-door double-pull feature still open the door?+
The manual says the double-pull feature does not work on the rear doors while child lock is active.
