Press down with your hand in the centre of
the cushion in order to lock it.
WARNING
If the instructions regarding the two-stage
booster cushion are not followed then this
could cause serious injury to a child in the
event of an accident.
IMPORTANT
Check that there are no loose objects (e.g.
toys) left behind in the space under the
cushion before lowering.
NOTE
The booster cushion must be lowered first
when lowering the backrest.
Child safety locks, rear doors
The controls for operating the rear door power
windows and the rear door opening handles
can be blocked from opening from the inside.
For more information, see page 66.
ISOFIX fixture system for child seats
Mounting points for the ISOFIX fixture system
are concealed behind the lower section of the
rear seat backrest, in the outer seats.
The location of the mounting points is indicated
by symbols in the backrest upholstery (see pre-
ceding illustration).
Press the seat cushion down to access the
mounting points.
NOTE
The ISOFIX fixture system is an accessory
for the passenger seat.
Always follow the manufacturer's installation
instructions when connecting a child seat to
the ISOFIX mounting points.
Size classesChild seats are in different sizes – cars are in
different sizes. This means that not all child
seats are suitable for all seats in all car models.
Consequently, there is a size classification for
child seats using the ISOFIX fixture system in
order to assist users in choosing the correct
child seat (see the following table).
Size

AFull size, front-facing child

WARNING
Never place a child in the passenger seat if
the car is equipped with an activated airbag.
NOTE
If an ISOFIX child seat has no size classifi-
cation then the car model must be included
on the child seat's vehicle list.
NOTE
Volvo recommends that you contact an
authorised Volvo dealer for recommenda-
tions about which ISOFIX child seats Volvo
recommends.

Upper mounting points for child seats
The car is equipped with upper mounting
points for certain front-facing child seats.
These mounting points are located on the rear
of the seat.
The upper mounting points are primarily
intended for use with front-facing child seats.
Volvo recommends that small children should
sit in rear-facing child seats to as late an age
as possible.
NOTE
For cars with folding head restraints on the
outside seats the head restraints should be
folded to facilitate the installation of this
type of child seat.
NOTE
For cars equipped with a cargo area cover
over the cargo area, this must be removed
before a child seat can be fitted in the
mounting points.
For detailed information on how the child seat
should be tensioned in the upper mounting
points, see the seat manufacturer's instruc-
tions.
WARNING
The child seat's straps must always be
drawn through the hole in the head restraint
leg before they are tensioned at the attach-
ment point.

General
The car is supplied with 2 remote control keys
or PCCs (Personal Car Communicator). They
are used to start the car and for locking and
unlocking.
More remote control keys can be ordered – up
to 6 can be programmed and used for the same
car.
The PCC has increased functionality com-
pared with the remote control key. The contin-
uation of this chapter describes the functions

Always remember to switch off the power
supply to power windows and sunroof by
removing the remote control key if the driver
leaves the car.

can be ordered at a workshop - an authorised
Volvo workshop is recommended. The remain-
ing remote control keys must then be taken to
the workshop. The code of the missing remotecontrol key must be erased from the system as
a theft prevention measure.

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.57 Keyless lock and ignition system (only
PCC
1)
General
The keyless drive function in the PCC allows
the car to be unlocked, driven and locked with-
out the need for a key. You simply have to have
the PCC with you. The system makes it easier
and more convenient to open the car, e.g.
when your hands are full.
Both of the car's PCCs incorporate the Keyless
function. Additional PCCs can be ordered, see
page 48.
PCC rangeIn order to open a door or the tailgate, a PCC
must be no more than approx. 1.5 metres fromthe car door handle or tailgate. This means that
the person who wishes to lock or unlock a door
must have the PCC with him or her. It is not
possible to lock or unlock a door if the PCC is
on the opposite side of the car.
The red rings in the preceding illustration indi-
cate the range covered by the system's anten-
nas.
If all PCCs are removed from the car when the
engine is running or key position II is active
(see page 81) and if all doors are closed, then
a warning message is shown in the information
display and an audio reminder signal sounds at
the same time.
The warning message clears and the audio
reminder signal stops when the PCC is brought
back to the car after:
•a door has been opened and closed
•the PCC is inserted into the ignition switch
•the READ button has been pressed.
Handling the PCC safelyIf a PCC with keyless drive function is left in the
car, it is deactivated temporarily when the car
is locked. This prevents unauthorised entry.
However, if someone breaks into the car,
opens the door and finds the PCC, it can bereactivated. It is therefore important to handle
all PCCs with great care.
IMPORTANT
Never leave a PCC behind in the car.
Interference to PCC functionElectromagnetic fields and screening can inter-
fere with the keyless drive system. For this rea-
son, do not place the PCC near mobile phones
or metallic objects.
If interference is experienced nonetheless, use
the PCC and the key blade as a remote control
key, see page 49.

The remote control key can lock/unlock all
doors and the tailgate simultaneously. Different
sequences for unlocking can be selected, see
Unlocking with the remote control key, page
50.
If it is not possible to lock/unlock with the
remote control key, the battery may be dis-
charged - lock or unlock the left-hand front
door with the detachable key blade, see
page 52.
WARNING
Be aware that there is a risk that you can be
locked in the car if it is locked from the out-
side.
Automatic relockingIf none of the doors or the tailgate is opened
within 2 minutes of unlocking, all are locked
again automatically. This function reduces the
risk that the car is left unlocked unintentionally.
(For cars with alarm, see page 67.)
Manual lockingIn certain situations the car must be locked
manually, e.g. in the event of power failure.
The left-hand front door can be locked with its
lock cylinder and the remote control key's
detachable key blade, see page 58.Other doors do not have lock cylinders, but
instead have lock knobs on each door's end
face which must be re-turned - then they are
mechanically locked/blocked against opening
from the outside. They can still be opened from
the inside.
Manual locking of the door.

Use the remote control key's detachable
key blade to turn the knob, see page 52.
The door is blocked against opening from
the outside.
The door can be opened from both the
outside and the inside.
NOTE
•A door's knob control only locks that
particular door - not all doors simulta-
neously.
•A manually locked rear door with an
activated manual child safety lock can-
not be opened from either the outside
or the inside, see page 66. A rear door
that is locked in this way can only be
unlocked with the remote control key or
central locking button.
