As a safety precaution, all cargo in your vehi- cle should be securely anchored to keep itfrom being thrown forward in the event ofsudden braking, etc. The vehicle is equippedwith eyelets in the cargo space to whichstraps or other cargo restraints can beattached.
WARNING
The eyelets are not to be used as passen- ger restraints or as anchorages for childrestraints.
Consult your Volvo retailer about suitable accessories for this purpose.Remember that an object weighing 44 lbs(20 kg) produces a force of 2,200 lbs(1,000 kg) in a head-on collision at 30 mph(50 km/h)! Keep the following in mind when loading the vehicle:
• The load carrying capacity of your vehicle is determined by factors such as thenumber of passengers, the amount ofcargo, the weight of any accessories thatmay be installed, etc. See the section"Vehicle loading" in the chapter "Wheeland tires" for more detailed information.
• Load the cargo
against the backrest.
• Load heavy cargo as low as possible.
• If no one is sitting in the outboard rearseat(s), reinforce the backrest by fasten-ing the seat belts.
• Never load cargo above the backrestwithout a cargo net.
WARNING
When the rear backrest(s) are folded down, the vehicle should not be loaded toa level higher than 2 in. (5 cm) below theupper edge of the rear side windows.Objects placed higher than this level couldimpede the function of the inflatable cur-tain.

Key blades
Your vehicle is equipped with two coded remote key transmitters with integrated igni-tion key blades called Key Integrated Remote(KIR). To unlock/lock the vehicle using the key blade:
1. If necessary, press button (1) to fold outthe key blade.
2. Insert the key blade in the driver's door lock and turn it once to unlock the driv-
er's door only .

direction to lock all doors and the tailgate.
Use the switch on the driver's door armrest to lock/unlock the vehicle from the inside.
WARNING
If the doors are locked while driving, this may hinder rapid access to the occupantsof the vehicle in the event of an accident.(Also see information on "Child safetylocks".)
NOTE
To help prevent accidentally locking the keys in the vehicle, the central locking sys-tem is designed to unlock the doors imme-diately if the key is left in the ignitionswitch, the vehicle is locked using the lockbutton on the door and the door is thenclosed. A sound from the lock will be audi-ble at this time. Please note that this function will not unlock the doors if the engine is running.
Immobilizer (start inhibitor)Each of the keys supplied with your vehicle contains a coded transmitter. The code in thekey is transmitted to an antenna in the igni-tion switch where it is compared to the code stored in the start inhibitor module. The vehi-cle will start only with a properly coded key. Each key has a unique code, which your Volvo retailer uses if new keys are required. Amaximum of six remote keys can be pro-grammed and used for one vehicle. If you misplace a key, take the other keys to an authorized Volvo retailer for reprogram-ming as an antitheft measure. If two of the keys to your vehicle are close together, e.g., on the same key ring, whenyou try to start the vehicle, this could causeinterference in the immobilizer system andresult in the vehicle not starting. If this shouldoccur, remove one of the keys from the keyring before trying to start the vehicle again.
NOTE
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the fol-lowing condition: (1) This device may notcause harmful interference, and (2) thisdevice must accept any interferencereceived, including interference that maycause undesired operation.
