The "OFF" message indicates that you have made 3 invalid attempts to enter your radio's security code.
Just leave the radio turned on in this condition for several hours. You should then see the "CODE" message. Now you can enter the code.
If your Volvo s40 radio is always off, you can turn it on using the power button. The button is on the left, top-hand side.
Leave the radio turned on in this condition for several hours. Then enter a proper security code for your radio. If you don't have the code, you will need to contact a Volvo dealer.

I have an 1996 Audi Quattro A6 i changed my batteri and my radio went to safe mode. How do i get my radio off safe mode?
I was told (just yesterday) by a Volvo dealership mechanic to leave the key in the on position for up to 2 hours. This applies to my 1994 940.
you turn the key on and off 25 times and the radio works as good as new.
*Turn off the radio press the 'set time' button while pressing the radio station buttons to set the time..
According to all the Volvo sites: 1. turn ignition to position 1 2. turn radio on so that it reads "OFF" 3. Wait... it may take hours for the unit to reset... 4. Once unit ask for code, input it according to instructions supplied with vehicle
turn the radio off and press the set button use the seek button to adjust the time
What is the DTC ( data trouble code) Your question can not be answered without that info
The OFF code on your Volvo radio stays on after the user has entered the wrong radio code three times or more. OFF actually means On but is in locked mode. To reset this problem so that you can re-enter your correct code, you must leave the radio on showing "OFF" for two hours, sounds ridiculous but its true, just did it myself last night. Make sure you have correct radio code, if not sure, call Volvo and they most likely will give it to you over the phone, just have your vehicles vin number handy. One last note, keep ignition in first accessory position while keeping raido powered for two hours. Once your radio is left on for two hours, CODE should appear, then just enter the four digit code and youre back in business:)
