LOCKS AND ALARM  
06 Locks and alarm  
All remote control keys have a detachable key  
blade (p. 175) made of metal. The visible

is possible to distinguish between the remote  
control keys.  
Remote control key  
Remote control key - losing  
Amongst other things, the remote control key  
is used for locking/unlocking and starting the  
engine.  
If you lose a remote control key then a new  
one can be ordered at a workshop - an  
authorised Volvo workshop is recommended.  
There are two variants of remote control key -  
Remote control key in basic version and  
Remote control key with PCC (Personal Car  
Communicator)*.  
The remaining remote control keys must be  
taken to the Volvo workshop. The code of the  
missing remote control key must be erased  
from the system as a theft prevention meas-  
ure.  
More remote control keys can be ordered -  
but not variants other than the one supplied  
with the car. Up to six keys can be pro-  
grammed and used for one single car.  
The car is supplied with two remote control  
keys.

Storing settings  
WARNING  
Proceed as follows in order to store the set-  
tings and use the key memory in the remote  
control key:  
The key memory in the remote control key  
(p. 168) means that certain settings in the car  
can be individually adapted for different peo-  
ple.  
Risk of crushing! Make sure that children  
do not play with the controls. Check that  
there are no objects in front of, behind or  
under the seat during adjustment. Make  
sure that none of the passengers in the  
rear seat is in danger of becoming trap-  
ped.  
1. Unlock the car with the remote control  
key in whose memory the setting2 shall  
be stored.  
The key memory function is available in com-  
bination with, for example, power* driver's  
seat.  
2. Make sure that the key memory function  
is activated in the menu system MY CAR.  
Settings for door mirrors (p. 111), driver's  
seat, steering force (p. 196) and the com-  
bined instrument panel's theme, contrast and  
colour mode (p. 69) can be stored in the  
memory, depending on the car's equipment  
level.  
Changing settings  
3. Make the desired settings for e.g. the  
seat and the door mirrors.  
If several people each with a remote control  
key approach the car, then the settings for  
e.g. seat and door mirrors are implemented  
for the person whose remote control key  
unlocks the driver's door.  
4. The settings are stored in the current  
remote control key's memory.  
The next time the car is unlocked with the  
same remote control key, the positions that  
are stored in the key memory will be set auto-  
matically - providing that they have been  
changed since the last time the current  
remote control key was used.  
The function1 can be activated/deactivated in  
the menu system MY CAR. For a description  
of the menu system, see MY CAR (p. 119).  
If the driver's door has been opened by  
person A with remote control key A, but  
person B with remote control key B shall  
drive, then the settings can be changed as  
follows:  
When the function is activated, the settings  
are automatically linked to the key memory.  
This means that a change in a setting will  
automatically be saved to the specific remote  
control key's memory.

behind the steering wheel, person B  
presses the button for unlocking on  
his/her remote control key, see Remote

unlock button on the remote control key. The  
driver's door must then be open.

NOTE  
Cars equipped with Keyless Drive have a star-

keylessly.  
Turn the remote control key over with the  
buttons facing up, this is to avoid the bat-  
teries falling out when it is opened.  
Volvo recommends that the batteries to be  
used in the remote control key/PCC fulfil  
UN Manual of Test and Criteria, Part III,  
sub-section 38.3. Batteries fitted in the  
factory or replaced by an authorised Volvo  
workshop fulfil the above criteria.  
With the keyless start and lock system the car  
can be started, locked and unlocked without  
the remote control key (p. 168)6 inserted in  
the ignition switch. It is enough to have the  
remote control key with you in a pocket. The  
system makes it easier and more convenient  
to e.g. open the car when your hands are full.  
IMPORTANT  
Avoid touching new batteries and their  
contact surfaces with your fingers as this  
may impair their function.  
Assembly  
1. Press the remote control key together.  
2. Hold the remote control key with the slot  
pointed up and lower the key blade into  
its slot.  
Battery replacement  
Both of the remote control keys included with  
the car have keyless functionality. It is possi-  
ble to order more remote control keys.  
Closely study how the battery/batteries  
are secured on the inside of the cover,  
with regard to their (+) and (–) sides.  
3. Lightly press the key blade. You should  
hear a "click" when the key blade is

all doors and the tailgate must be closed.  
Automatic relocking  
If none of the doors or the tailgate is opened  
within two minutes of unlocking, all are
