* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.85
For information about the optional folding mir-
ror function see page 64.
WARNING
The mirrors should always be adjusted prior
to driving. Objects seen in the passenger's
side wide-angle door mirror are closer than
they appear to be.
Mirror memory function (with the central
locking system)*
If you lock the vehicle and later unlock it with
the same remote key and open the driver's
door, the door mirrors (and the driver's seat)
will automatically move to the position they
were in when you left the vehicle. This feature
will work in the same way with all of the remote
key transmitters (up to 3) that you use with your
vehicle. This feature will not function if you lock
your vehicle with the key.
Water repellent glassThe side door mirrors can be treated
with a water repellent coating. The
symbol to the left indicates these windows
have this coating.
The coating improves vision by causing the
water to run off quickly.
For information on cleaning this type of glass,
see page 202.
CAUTION
Use the heating function to remove ice,
snow, or mist from the mirrors.

G026963
Your vehicle is equipped with two coded
remote key transmitters with integrated ignition
keys called Key Integrated Remote (KIR).
The remote key transmitters will also activate
or allow "keyless" entry into the passenger
compartment or the tailgate. These transmit-
ters use a radio frequency that will enable you
to lock/unlock all doors and the tailgate from a
distance of 10 – 15 feet (3 – 5 meters). They will
also activate or deactivate your vehicle's alarm
system(s). The vehicle can also be locked/
unlocked with the key.
If either of the remote keys is lost, the other
should be taken with the car to a Volvo retailer.As an anti-theft measure, the code of the lost
remote key must be erased from the system.
NOTE
Additional or duplicate remote control keys
can be obtained from any Authorized Volvo
Retailer.
You can also obtain additional or duplicate
remote control keys from certain independ-
ent repair facilities and locksmiths that are
qualified to make remote control keys. Each
key must be programmed to work with your
vehicle.

NOTE
•If an airbag deploys, your vehicle's SRS
control module will attempt to automat-
ically unlock all doors.
•The key blade may also be used to lock
and unlock the doors, and to activate
and deactivate the alarm system.
•To avoid leaving your keys in the vehi-
cle, make a habit of always locking the
vehicle with the remote key.
•If the key blade section of the remote is
not fully folded out when starting the
vehicle, the immobilizer function may
make it impossible to start the engine.
•The vehicle can be locked even if a door
is open. When the door(s) are closed,
they will be locked. Please be aware
that the keys could be locked in the car
when this is done.
Automatic re-lockingIf the doors are unlocked, the locks will auto-
matically reengage (re-lock) and the alarm will
rearm after 2 minutes unless a door or the tail-
gate has been opened. This helps prevent the
car from inadvertently being left unlocked.

WARNING
Never use the transmitter to lock the doors
from inside the vehicle.
•Doing so would ACTIVATE:
•the break-in alarm, which would sound
if one of the doors were opened
•the optional interior motion and inclina-
tion alarm sensors.
•Doing so would DEACTIVATE:
•the moonroof and interior courtesy light
controls.
•the central locking buttons on the front
door armrests, although the interior
door handles would still function to
allow occupants to leave the vehicle.
•Disabled features would remain disa-
bled until the remote is used again to
unlock the vehicle.
•In addition, locking an occupied vehicle
would hinder rapid access to the occu-
pants in an accident or emergency.
Replacing the battery in the remote keyIf the range of the transmitter is noticeably
reduced, this indicates that the battery is weak
and should be replaced.
To replace the battery:1. Carefully pry open the rear edge of the
cover with a small screwdriver.
2. 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.
3. Press the cover back into place. Ensure
that the rubber seal is correctly positioned
to help keep out moisture.
NOTE
The old battery should be disposed of prop-
erly at a recycling center or at your Volvo
retailer.

139 Starting the engine
WARNING
Before starting, 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, see page 104.
1. Fasten the seat belt.
2. Apply the parking brake (hand brake) if not
already set. The gear selector is locked in
the P position (SHIFTLOCK).
3. Without touching the accelerator pedal,
turn the ignition key
1 to the starting posi-
tion. 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
•If the key blade section of the remote is
not fully folded out when starting the
vehicle, the immobilizer function may
make it impossible to start the engine.
•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 tem-
perature as quickly as possible, which
enables them to control emissions and
help reduce the vehicle's impact on the
environment.
•To release the gear selector from the P
(Park) position, the engine must be run-
ning (or the ignition key must be in posi-
tion II) and the brake pedal must be
depressed.
•Select the desired gear. The gear
engages after a very slight delay which
is especially noticeable when selecting
R.
NOTE
Your vehicle is equipped with a KEYLOCK
system. When the engine is switched off,
the gear selector must be in the P position
before the key can be removed from the
ignition switch.
When starting in cold weather, the trans-
mission may shift up at slightly higher
engine speeds than normal until the auto-
matic transmission fluid reaches normal
operating temperature.
NOTE
Do not race a cold engine immediately after
starting. Oil flow may not reach some lubri-
cation points fast enough to prevent engine
damage.
WARNING
An extra mat on the driver's floor can cause
the accelerator pedal to catch. Check that
the movement of the accelerator pedal is
not impeded. No more than one protective
floor covering may be used at one time.
1If 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 result in the vehicle not
starting. If this should occur, remove one of the keys from the key ring before trying to start the vehicle again.
2On vehicles equipped with the autostart feature, release the key immediately. See also page 141.
