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.

1 Unlock

Press this button once to unlock the driver's door only. Wait for at least 1 second and press the button again (within 10 seconds) to unlock all doors, and the tailgate.

2 Tailgate unlock

Press this button to unlock the tailgate (without unlocking the other doors). This function will not open the tailgate.

3 Panic function

The alarm is automatically armed whenever you lock your vehicle.

4 Approach lighting

Press this button when approaching the vehicle at night to light up the interior courtesy light, parking lights, license plate lights and the lights in the door mirrors.

5 Lock

Press once to lock all doors, and the tailgate.

6 Fold key blade in/out

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.

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.
