Immobilizer (start inhibitor)
Each of the keys supplied with your vehicle contains a coded transmitter\
. The code in the key is
transmitted to an antenna in the ignition switch where it is compared to\
the code stored in the start
inhibitor module. The vehicle will start only with a properly coded key.\

Each key has a unique code, which your Volvo retailer uses if new keys a\
re required. A maximum of six
remote controls/keys can be programmed and used for one vehicle. If you \
misplace a key, take the other
keys to an authorized Volvo retailer for reprogramming as an antitheft m\
easure.
If two of the keys to your vehicle are close together, e.g., on the same\
key ring, when you try to start the
vehicle, this could cause interference in the immobilizer system and res\

WARNING!
Never use the transmitter to lock the doors from inside the vehicle.
Doing so would ACTIVATE:
l the break-in alarm, which would sound if one of the doors were opened
l the optional interior motion and inclination alarm sensors.
Doing so would DEACTIVATE:
l the moonroof and interior courtesy light controls.
l the central locking buttons on the front door armrests, although the int\
erior door handles would still
function to allow occupants to leave the vehicle.
Disabled features would remain disabled until the remote is used again t\
o unlock the vehicle.
In addition, locking an occupied vehicle would hinder rapid access to th\
e occupants in an accident or
emergency.
Replacing the battery in the remote control
If the range of the transmitter is noticeably reduced, this indicates th\
at the battery is weak and should be
replaced.
To replace the battery:
- Carefully pry open the rear edge of the cover with a small screwdriver\
.
- Insert a new 3-volt, CR2032 battery, with the battery's plus side up. \
Avoid touching the contact
surfaces of the battery with your fingers.
- Press the cover back into place. Ensure that the rubber seal is correc\
tly positioned to help keep out

CAUTION!
- Do not refuel with the engine running
1. Turn the ignition off or to position I. If the ignition is on, an inco\
rrect reading
could occur in the fuel gauge.
- After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise unt\
il it clicks into place
1.
- Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Do not press the handle on the filler\
nozzle more than one extra time. Too much fuel in
the tank in hot weather conditions can cause the fuel to overflow. Overf\
illing could also cause damage to the emission
control systems.
- Avoid spilling gasoline during refueling. In addition to causing damag\
e to the environment, gasolines containing
alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which may not be covered u\
nder the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
- Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcoho\
l). This practice can result in vehicle
performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the fuel syst\
em. Such damage may not be covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
1. If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is runn\
ing when the vehicle is refueled, the Check Engine Light
(malfunction indicator lamp) may indicate a fault. However, your vehic\
le's performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo original
or approved fuel filler caps.
pg. 119 Starting and driving
Starting the vehicle
Starting the engine
- Fasten the seat belt.
WARNING!
Before starting, check that the seat, steering wheel and mirrors are adj\
usted properly. Make sure the brake pedal can be
depressed completely. Adjust the seat if necessary. See pages
84 and 87.
- Apply the parking brake (hand brake) if not already set. The gear se\
lector is locked in the (P)ark position
(SHIFTLOCK).
- Without touching the accelerator pedal, turn the ignition key
1 to the starting position. Allow the starter to operate for up
to 10 seconds. Release the key as soon as the engine starts
2. If the engine fails to start, repeat this step.
NOTE:
l If the key blade section of the remote is not fully folded out when star\
ting the vehicle, the immobilizer function may
make it impossible to start the engine.
l After a cold start, idle speed may be noticeably higher than normal for \
a short period. This is done to help bring
components in the emission control system to their normal operating temp\
erature as quickly as possible, which enables
them to control emissions and help reduce the vehicle's impact on the en\
vironment.
l For cold starts at altitudes above 6000 ft (1800 meters), depress the \
accelerator pedal halfway and turn the key to the
starting position. Release the pedal slowly when the engine starts.
- To release the gear selector from the (P)ark position, the engine must be running (or the ignition key must be\
in position
II) and the brake pedal must be depressed.
