The key number codes are stamped on a separate tag supplied with the keys. This tag should be separated from the key ring and kept in a safe place.
As an added anti-theft measure, new keys have been developed, which may take slightly longer to copy or replace if the original keys are misplaced.
In the event the original keys are lost, duplicates may be ordered from your Volvo retailer.
Doors and locks
The vehicle is equipped with a central door-locking system. This means the lock on the driver's door controls the locks on the other doors (including the trunk or, on wagon models, the tailgate) automatically.
If the driver's door is locked or unlocked from the outside using the key, the other doors will be locked or unlocked automatically.
To lock/unlock the car by using the lock button on the inside of the driver's door, push/pull to lock/unlock all the doors. Check the action of the buttons on the other doors to verify their correct function (lock/unlock). The driver's door can be locked only by using the key when outside the vehicle.
WARNING!

Remote keyless entry system
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). To operate the system press either the LOCK or UNLOCK button.
On vehicles equipped with an alarm, the alarm will also be activated/deactivated by this system.
| This device complies with the FCC rules Part 15. Operations 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. |
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. However, as a safety feature, the doors and trunk/tailgate can be unlocked if the starting (ignition) key is in position I or II. The remote keyless entry system will not function when the ignition is on. 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. |
Electrically operated front seats
The front seats are electrically operated. Using the switches on the sides of the seats you can adjust:
- the height of the seat (rear)
- the height of the seat (front)
- the forward-backward movement
- the backrest tilt
NOTE: The electrically operated front seats have an overload protector which engages if an object blocks either of the seats. If this happens remove the object and wait 20 seconds. The overload protector should then have cooled down and the power seats should function normally.
WARNING! Do not adjust the seat while driving. The seat should be adjusted so that the brake pedal can be depressed fully. In addition, position the seat as far rearward as comfort and control allow. The seat rails on the floor must not be obstructed in any way when the seat is moved. |
WARNING!
The driver's seat is operable with the ignition OFF.

Programming the memory
Three seat positions can be programmed. To program a seat position:
1. Adjust the seat to the desired position.
2. Depress the MEM button.
3. Press button 1 to program the current position of the seat.
Buttons 2 and 3 can be programmed in the same way for two additional seat positions. To move the seat to a programmed position, depress button 1, 2 or 3 until the seat stops. If the button is released before the seat has the reached the programmed position, it will stop as a safety precaution.

CAUTION : Never use ice scrapers made of metal as they can easily scratch the mirror surface. |
Vanity mirrors
The vanity mirrors are located on both front sun visors.
The lamps light up when the covers are opened.
Interior light
1 Lights always on.
2 Lights always off.
3 Light is on when either of the front or the rear doors are opened.
A time-delay device keeps the interior illuminated for approx. 12 seconds after closing the driver's door. This facilitates finding the starting (ignition) switch, etc., at night.
Rear reading lights
Rear seat passengers can turn the rear reading lights on or off by using the adjacent switches.
A ON
B OFF
To avoid battery drain
The interior light and the warning lights in the rear of the doors come on when a door is opened.
To avoid battery drain when the doors are opened for prolonged periods, these lights can be switched off by pushing in and turning the door light switches slightly clockwise. When the door is closed the switch will return to its normal position.
