Manual Trunk Release: Some Volvo S80 models have a manual trunk release located in the glove box. Open the glove box and look for a small lever or button labeled "Trunk Release." Pull or press the release to open the trunk.
Keyhole Access: If your vehicle doesn't have a manual trunk release, it might have a keyhole hidden behind a small cover. Look for the cover near the trunk lock or license plate area. Use the key to unlock and open the trunk.
Emergency Trunk Pull Cable: Some Volvo S80 models have an emergency trunk pull cable located in the trunk. To access it, you may need to remove the rear seat or a panel in the trunk. Once you find the cable, pull it to release the trunk latch.
Jump-Start the Battery: If you have access to another car with a good battery, you can try jump-starting your S80. This will provide temporary power to the trunk release mechanism. Connect the jumper cables according to the manufacturer's instructions and attempt to open the trunk.
Contact Volvo Roadside Assistance: If none of the above methods work, you can contact Volvo Roadside Assistance for professional help. They have the necessary tools and expertise to safely open your trunk without causing damage.
Remember, attempting to force open the trunk without the proper tools or knowledge could damage the vehicle's components. If you are unsure about any of these methods, it is best to consult with a qualified mechanic or Volvo dealership for assistance.
