Remote control with key blade

Remote control
The car is supplied with two remote controls.
They also serve as ignition keys.
The remote controls contain detachable metal
key blades for mechanical locking/unlocking of
the driver's door and glovebox.
The key blades' unique code is available at
authorised Volvo workshops, who can order
new key blades.
A maximum of six remote controls/key blades
can be programmed and used for one single
car.
Turn signal indication during locking/

unlocking
When the car is unlocked using the Keyless
Drive system or the remote control, two short
flashes of the direction indicators serve to indi-
cate that unlocking was correctly performed.
For locking, the indication takes place with one
long flash and only if all locks are locked, after
the doors and the tailgate have been closed.
Personal preferences can be used to deacti-
vate indication via the direction indicators.
There will then be no visual indication as to
whether the lock status is correct, see
page 75.

Loss of a remote control
If you lose a remote control, take the car and
the other remote controls to an authorised
Volvo workshop. The code of the missing
remote control must be erased from the sys-
tem as a theft prevention measure.
Immobiliser
The remote controls are fitted with coded
chips. The code must be accepted by the
reader (receiver) in the ignition switch. The car
can only be started if the correct remote control
with the correct code is used.
