Got some details from a Facebook person who reached out to Volvo:

It says there is a counter that can't be reset...but who ever listens to that without trying? Any thoughts on where its located and if we can mess with it?

Quote:The importer tells me the following information via the "cheat code" that you found online.
"Via the described action with the gear lever you will put the transmission in manual mode and downshift.
This means that both the engine and the gearbox are heated up more quickly, which means that you will have maximum power available more quickly.
The use of the Launch Mode available on this car is described in the owner's manual"
In response to your question of how many times this can be used, I also requested this from the technical service and the following answer comes directly from Sweden.
"- Limited to 200 uses over the entire age of the car
• This uses internal counters and cannot be reset.
• Use is limited by temperature. Range of engine & gearbox (not available when cold
and/or very hot drivetrain)
• Also limited by outside temperature. (not below -5°c, not above 35°c)
• Min 65 sec. wait between each launch mode
• Obviously not available when the towbar is in use.
Your questions about the launch mode and/or cheat code have now been answered by the importer. Sorry for the long wait for an answer but we had to receive confirmation from the head office in Sweden.
I thank you for your understanding.
Kind regards
