If the doors are locked while driving, this may hinder rapid access to the occupants of the car in the event of an
accident. (Also see information on "Child safety locks").

doors immediately if the key is left in the ignition switch, the car is locked using the lock button on the door and the
door is then closed. A sound from the lock will be audible at this time.
Please note that this function will not unlock the doors if the engine is running.
Immobilizer (start inhibitor)

in the ignition switch where it is compared to the code stored in the start inhibitor module. The car will start only with
a properly coded key. If you misplace a key, take the other keys to an authorized Volvo retailer for reprogramming as
an antitheft measure.

pg. 73 Remote keyless entry system
ProCarManuals.com

Remote keyless entry system
Your car is equipped with a remote control transmitter. This transmitter uses a radio frequency which will allow
"keyless" entry into the passenger compartment or the tailgate. Your car is supplied with two coded key ring
transmitters, which will enable you to lock/ unlock all doors and the tailgate from a distance of 10-15 feet (3-5 meters).
The remote transmitter will also activate or deactivate the your car's alarm system(s). The car can also be
locked/unlocked with the key.
As an extra security precaution in certain situations (valet parking, etc.), Volvo recommends that the transmitter not be
included when the keys are given to anyone. The service key can be used instead. If one of the transmitters is
misplaced, contact your nearest authorized Volvo retailer for assistance.
Using the remote control
Press the LOCK button once to lock all doors, fuel filler door and tailgate.
Press the UNLOCK button once to unlock the driver's door only. Press this button again (within 10 seconds) to
unlock all doors, fuel filler door and tailgate.
To open the tailgate (without unlocking the other doors), press the tailgate -unlock button twice.
NOTE:
If the doors are unlocked with the remote, the locks will automatically reengage (re-lock) and the alarm will reset
after 2 minutes unless a door has been opened.
The lock/unlock and alarm features can also be utilized by using the keys.

pg. 74 Remote keyless entry system
Remote keyless entry system - replacing batteries
If the range of the transmitter is noticeably reduced, this indicates that the battery is weak and should be replaced. To
replace the battery
Remove the screw on the transmitter cover with a small screwdriver
Remove the cover carefully pressing it rearward/upward
Replace the battery with a new 3-volt, CR 2032 battery. The battery should be inserted with the minus side upward.
Avoid touching the contact surfaces of the battery with your fingers.
Reinstall the cover and tighten the screw to help protect the transmitter.
NOTE: The old battery should be disposed of properly at a recycling center or at your Volvo retailer.
WARNING!
Volvo does not recommend using the transmitter to lock the doors from inside the car. The alarm would be activated
and would sound when one of the doors is opened. The doors must not be locked using the remote transmitter while
the vehicle is occupied. In case of an accident, this may hinder rapid access to the occupants of the vehicle. The
alarm will also sound.
