remote control VOLVO S80 2007 Owner's Manual

Page 91 of 251

HomeLink1 is a system that can be programmed to learn the codes of three different remote controlled-devices (for
example, a garage door opener, remote lighting, entry gate). HomeLink's sun visor-mounted transceiver, powered by
your car's electrical system, may then be used in place of your handheld remote controls. The HomeLink transceiver
consists of three programmable buttons and an indicator light.

NOTE
For your security, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver is designed to not function if you lock your car from the
outside.
Retain the original transmitter(s) for future programming procedures (for example, if you purchase a new vehicle).
For your own security, erase all programmed buttons on the HomeLink Universal Transceiver when you sell your
vehicle.
Metallic sun protection films should not be used on any windows in a vehicle equipped with HomeLink Universal
Transceiver. This could interfere with the transceivers function.
Operating the HomeLink Universal Transceiver
Once programmed, the HomeLink Universal Transceiver can be used in place of your handheld transmitters.
NOTE
The HomeLink universal transceiver will function for 30 minutes after the driver's door has been opened without
switching on the vehicle's ignition.
Press the programmed HomeLink button to activate the garage door, driveway gate, security lightning, home security
system etc. Your original hand -held transmitters may, of course, be used at any time.
WARNING
If you use HomeLink to open a garage door or gate, be sure no one is near the gate or door while it is in motion.
Do not use the HomeLink Universal Transceiver with any garage door opener that lacks safety "stop" and
"reverse" features as required by federal safety standards. (This includes any garage door opener model manufactured
before April 1, 1982). A garage door opener that cannot "detect" an object, signalling the door to "stop" and
"reverse" does not meet current federal safety standards. Using a garage door opener without these features increases
the risk of serious injury or death. For more information on this matter, call toll-free 1-800-355-3515. (Internet:
www.HomeLink.com
).
Programming the transceiver for the first time (U.S. residents)
1. For first time training, press and hold the two outer HomeLink buttons, releasing only when the HomeLink indicator
light begins to flash after 20 seconds. (Do not perform this step when training the additional HomeLink buttons.)

Starting the engine
Starting the engine
1. Fasten the seat belt.
WARNING
Before starting the engine, check that the seat, steering wheel and mirrors are adjusted properly. Make sure the brake
pedal can be depressed completely. Adjust the seat if necessary.
1. Insert the remote key into the ignition slot. Press the key until it is drawn into the slot
1.
NOTE
The remote key should be inserted into the ignition slot with the key blade end of the remote pointing out. See the
illustration on page 75
.
2. Depress the brake pedal
2.
WARNING
An extra mat on the driver's floor can cause the accelerator and/or brake pedal to catch. Check that the movement of
these pedals is not impeded. Not more than one protective floor covering may be used at one time.
1On vehicles with the optional keyless drive, it is only necessary to have a remote control in the passenger's compartment.
2If the vehicle is moving, it is only necessary to press the start/stop button to start the vehicle.
3. Press and release the start/stop button. The autostart function will operate the starter motor until the engine starts.
The starter motor operates for a maximum of 10 seconds. If the engine has not started, repeat the procedure.
WARNING
Always remove the remote key from the ignition slot when leaving the vehicle, especially if there are children in
the vehicle.
Never remove the remote key from the ignition slot while driving or when the vehicle is being towed. The
steering lock could otherwise be activated, making it impossible to steer the vehicle. Never remove the remote key
with keyless drive function (option) from the vehicle while driving or during towing.
Always place the gear selector in Park and apply the parking brake before leaving the vehicle. Never leave the
vehicle unattended with the engine running.
Always open garage doors fully before starting the engine inside a garage to ensure adequate ventilation. The
exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which is invisible and odorless but very poisonous.
NOTE
The idling speed can be noticeably higher than normal during cold starts. This is to enable emission control system
can reach normal operating temperature as quickly as possible, which helps reduce exhaust emissions.
Keylock: Your vehicle is equipped with a keylock system. When the engine is switched off, the gear selector must
be in the Park position before the key can be removed
1 from the ignition slot.

103 03 Your driving environment
Starting the engine
CAUTION
When starting in cold weather, the automatic transmission may shift up at slightly higher engine speeds than
normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating temperature.
Do not race a cold engine immediately after starting. Oil flow may not reach some lubrication points fast enough
to prevent engine damage.
The engine should be idling when you move the gear selector. Never accelerate until after you feel the
transmission engage. Accelerating immediately after selecting a gear will cause harsh engagement and premature
transmission wear.
Selecting P or N when idling at a standstill for prolonged periods of time will help prevent overheating of the
automatic transmission fluid.
Keyless drive (option)
Follow steps 2-3 for starting the engine.
NOTE
For the vehicle to start, one of the vehicle's remote keys must be in the passenger compartment.
Steering wheel lock
The steering wheel lock is deactivated when the remote key is inserted into the ignition slot
1 and activated when the
remote key is removed from the ignition slot.
Always take the remote key or keyless drive remote when leaving the vehicle to help reduce the risk of theft.
1On vehicles with the optional keyless drive, the steering lock is deactivated when the start button is pressed for the first time (assuming that a
remote control is in the passenger's compartment). It is activated when the ignition is switched off and the driver's door is opened.
