Your vehicle is equipped with two coded

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 transmitters 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 independent repair facilities and locksmiths that are qualified to make remote control keys. Each key must be programmed to work with your vehicle.

Press to extend the key blade. This button must also be pressed when the key blade is folded back into the slot in the side of the remote key unit.

NOTE
• If an airbag deploys, your vehicle's SRS control module will attempt to automatically 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 vehicle, 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-locking

If the doors are unlocked, the locks will automatically reengage (re-lock) and the alarm will rearm after 2 minutes unless a door or the tailgate has been opened. This helps prevent the car from inadvertently being left unlocked.

Replacing the battery in the remote key

Replacing the battery in the remote key

If 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 properly at a recycling center or at your Volvo retailer.
