pg. 76 Keys, Exterior courtesy lights, Locking and unlocking the car
|
Keys
Two types of keys are provided with your car; master keys
and a service key. The master key, the remote control, and the central
locking button may all be used to lock and unlock
all of your car's locks.
The service key operates the driver's door and the ignition switch. It will also fit the
tailgate lock cylinder on models outfitted with a factory installed third seat. The service key
is intended to help deter unwanted entry into the glove compartment.
Turn the key once to unlock the driver's
door and the fuel filler door.
Turn the key again (within 10 seconds) to unlock all doors and the tailgate.
One turn with the key towards lock in the drivers door locks all doors and tailgate.
Use the switch on the front door armrests to lock/unlock the car from the inside.
WARNING! If the doors are locked while driving, this
may hinder rapid access to the occupants of
the car in the event of an accident. (Also see
information on "Child safety locks").
|
NOTE: To help prevent accidentally locking
the keys in the car, the central locking system
is designed to unlock the doors immediately if
the key is left in the ignition switch, the car is
locked using the lock button on the door and
the door is then closed. A sound from the
lock will be audible at this time.
Please note that this function will not unlock
the doors if the engine is running.
Immobilizer (start inhibitor)
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.
*This key operates only driver's door and
ignition switch/steering wheel lock.
This device complies with part 15 of the
FCC rules. Operation is subject to the
following condition: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Exterior courtesy lights
Home Safe System
When you leave your car at night, you can
make use of the courtesy lighting function:
Remove the key from the ignition switch.
Pull the direction indicator lever towards
the steering wheel (as when activating the
high beams).
Exit the car and lock the doors.
The headlights, parking lights, license plate
lights and the lights in the sideview mirrors
will now come on and remain on for 30, 60 or
90 seconds (the time interval is at your
discretion and can be changed by an authorized
Volvo retailer).
Approach lighting
When approaching the car at night, press the
yellow button in the central locking remote
control (see illustration on page 77). This
lights up the interior courtesy light, parking
lights, license plate lights and the lights in the
sideview mirrors.
pg. 77 Remote keyless entry system
|
Remote keyless entry system
Your car is equipped with two coded remote control transmitters with integrated
ignition keys called Key Integrated Remote (KIR). These transmitters
use a radio frequency that will enable you to lock/unlock all doors
and the tailgate from a distance of 10-15 feet
(3-5 meters).
The transmitters will also activate or allow "keyless" entry into the passenger
compartment or the tailgate. They will also activate
or deactivate the vehicle's alarm system(s).
The car can also be locked/unlocked with the key.
If one of the transmitters is misplaced,
contact your nearest authorized Volvo retailer for
replacement.

Remote keyless entry system
- replacing batteries
If the range of the transmitter is noticeably
reduced, this indicates that the battery is weak
and should be replaced.
To replace the battery
Remove the cover by carefully prying
up its rear edge with a small screwdriver
Replace the battery with a new 3-volt, CR 2032 battery. The battery should be inserted with the plus side upward.
Avoid touching the contact surfaces of the battery with your fingers.
Press the cover back into place. Ensure that the rubber seal seats correctly to
help prevent moisture from entering the unit.
NOTE: The old battery should be disposed
of properly at a recycling center or at your Volvo retailer.
WARNING! Volvo does not recommend using the
transmitter to lock the doors from inside the
car. 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.

In certain situations it may be desirable to turn off the optional inclination

From the time the ignition key is turned from the Drive position
(position II) until you lock the car, you can press the button in the center
console. The LED in the switch will light up and a message will be
displayed in the text window to indicate that the sensors are
disconnected.

The optional sensors are automatically reconnected to the
alarm system the next time the car is unlocked and then locked again.
LED alarm status signals
The status of the alarm system is indicated by the red LED at the top of
the dash:
LED off - the alarm is not armed
LED flashes once per second - the alarm is armed
LED flashes rapidly before the ignition is switched on - the alarm
has been triggered
Fault in the alarm system: If a fault has been detected in the alarm
system, a message will be displayed in the text window. Contact a
Volvo retailer.
