Each of the keys supplied with your car contains a coded transmitter. The code in the key is transmitted to an antenna
in the ignition switch where it is compared to the code stored in the start inhibitor module. The car will start only with
a properly coded key.
If you misplace a key, take the other keys to an authorized Volvo retailer for reprogramming as an antitheft measure.

Remote controls
Your car is equipped with a remote control transmitter. This transmitter uses a radio signal to 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 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.
