Volvo 2000 S70 Operation And Care Manual page 29

2000 Volvo S & V70
Your car is equipped with a remote control transmitter. This transmitter uses a radio frequency which will allow
"keyless" entry into the passenger compartment or the trunk. You will be supplied with two coded key ring
transmitters, which will enable you to lock/unlock all doors and the trunk/tailgate from a distance of 10-15 feet (3-5
meters).
On vehicles equipped with an alarm, the alarm will also be activated/deactivated by this system.
The car can also be locked/unlocked with the key.
As an extra security precaution in certain situations (valet parking, etc.), Volvo recommends that the transmitter not be
included when the keys are given to anyone. The service key can be used instead. If one of the transmitters is
misplaced, contact the nearest authorized Volvo retailer for assistance.
Using the remote control
· Press the LOCK button once to lock all doors and trunk/tailgate.
· Press the UNLOCK button once to unlock the driver's door only. Press this button again (within 10 seconds) to
unlock all doors, trunk/tailgate.
· Press the OPEN trunk/tailgate button twice within 3 seconds to pop open the trunk or unlock the tailgate.
NOTE: To avoid leaving your keys in the car, make a habit of always locking the car with the remote control.
This device complies with FCC rules Part 15. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device
may not cause harmful interference and (2) this device must accept any interference that may be received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE: If only the driver's door is unlocked, the lock will automatically reengage (re-lock) and the alarm will reset
after 2 minutes unless the door has been opened.
The lock/unlock and alarm features can also be utilized by using the keys. See section: Doors and Locks on
If the alarm LED glows continuously for 5 seconds, this indicates a fault in the system or that a door is not properly
closed.
WARNING!
Volvo does not recommend using the transmitter to lock the doors from inside the car. On cars equipped with an
alarm, the alarm would be activated and would sound when one of the doors is opened. The doors must not be
locked using the remote transmitter while the vehicle is occupied. In case of an accident, this may hinder rapid
access to the occupants of the vehicle. The alarm will also sound on models equipped with this feature.
