Remote Key

The remote key is used to lock and unlock the doors, the tailgate and the fuel filler door. The remote key must be in the vehicle to start the engine.

Remote key¹, Care Key and button-less key (Key Tag)*.

The remote key is not physically used to start the ignition because the vehicle is standardequipped with keyless start (Passive Start). The key only needs to be in the front section of the passenger compartment.

For vehicles equipped with keyless locking and unlocking (Passive Entry)*, the engine can be started with the key anywhere in the vehicle. A smaller, lighter and button-less key (Key Tag) is also provided.

The remote keys can be linked to different driver profiles to store personal settings in the vehicle.

Remote Key Buttons

The remote key has four buttons, one on the left side and three on the right.

Locking - Press once to lock the doors, tailgate and fuel filler door and arm the alarm.

Press and hold to close all windows.

Unlocking - Press once to unlock the doors, tailgate and fuel filler door and disarm the alarm.

Press and hold to open all windows at the same time. This total airing function can be used to, e.g., quickly ventilate the vehicle in hot weather.

Tailgate - Unlock and disarm the tailgate only. On vehicles equipped with the power tailgate*, press and hold to automatically open the tailgate. Press and hold to close an open tailgate (an audible warning signal will be given).

Panic alarm - Used to attract attention in emergency situations. Press and hold the button for at least 3 seconds or press twice within 3 seconds to activate the turn signals and horn. To deactivate, wait at least 5 seconds and press the button again. If no action is taken, the panic alarm will deactivate automatically after 3 minutes.

• Be aware of the risk of locking the remote key inside the vehicle.
• If the remote key or key tag is left in the vehicle, it will be deactivated when the vehicle is locked and the alarm set using another valid key. The key will be reactivated when the vehicle is unlocked.
• If the remote key or Care Key is left in the vehicle, it will be deactivated even if the vehicle is locked using Volvo On Call, and will be reactivated when the vehicle is unlocked using Volvo On Call or another valid key.

Keyless Tag*

The button-less key² provided with the keyless locking and unlocking function works in the same way as the regular remote key for keyless start, locking and unlocking. The key is waterproof up to a depth of approx. 10 meters (30 feet) for up to 60 minutes. It does not have a detachable key blade and its battery cannot be replaced.

Care Key - Limited Remote Key

A Care Key enables the vehicle owner to set a maximum speed limit for the vehicle. This limit is intended to ensure safe use of the vehicle, for example when it is loaned out.

Intervention

Electromagnetic fields or obstructing objects may interfere with the remote key's functions for keyless start and keyless locking and unlocking*.

If you experience interference, use the remote key's detachable blade to unlock the vehicle and then place the remote key in the backup reader in the tunnel console cup holder to disarm the alarm and start the vehicle.
