How to save the trunk opening height on a Volvo EX60

Measure the available space before opening the hatch beneath a low ceiling. A saved height helps with a familiar parking place, but it should still be checked against the clearance at each new location.

THE QUICK ANSWER

Open the hatch, move it to the required height and hold the inner-right closing button for a few seconds until a chime confirms the setting. The saved height belongs to the current profile.

Choose a safe height and clear the area

Keep people and objects out of the hatch’s path. Check the ceiling as well as the space behind the vehicle. Use the intended driver profile so the height is saved in the profile you expect to use.

Position and store the stopping height

Tick steps as you go. Your progress stays in this tab.

Check the profile when the height seems different

The hatch keeps the newly selected height until changed, and the setting is saved to the profile in use. If another driver gets a different result, check the profile before assuming the mechanism forgot the position.
