Introduction
Two remote keys or optional Personal Car
Communicators (PCC) are provided with your
vehicle. They enable you to unlock the doors
and trunk, and also function as ignition keys
to start the vehicle or operate electrical com-
ponents. The remote keys contain detachable
metal key blades for manually locking or
unlocking the driver's door and the glove
compartment. The visible ends of these key
blades are unique to make it easier to identify
"your" remote key. Up to six remotes can be
programmed for use on the same vehicle.
The PCCs have enhanced functionality com-
pared with the standard remote key.
NOTE
In the remainder of this chapter, all refer-
ences to the remote key also pertain to the
PCC unless otherwise stated.
WARNING
Never leave the remote key in the ignition
slot if children are to remain in the vehicle.
See page 84 for more information on the
various ignition modes.
Detachable key blade
Each remote key or PCC contains a detacha-
ble metal key blade for mechanically locking
or unlocking the driver's door and the glove
compartment, and to enable the valet locking
function. See page 60 for more information
on the key blade and see page 63 for infor-
mation on the valet locking function. The key
blades have a unique code, which is used if
new ones need to be produced. This code is
available at an authorized Volvo retailer.
The visible ends of these key blades are
unique to make it easier to identify "your"
remote key.
Loss of a remote key
If either of the remote keys is lost, the other
should be taken with the car to a Volvo
retailer. As an anti-theft measure, the code of
the lost remote key must be erased from the
system.
NOTE
Additional or duplicate remote control keys
can be obtained from any Authorized
Volvo Retailer.
You can also obtain additional or duplicate
remote control keys from certain inde-
pendent repair facilities and locksmiths
that are qualified to make remote control
keys. Each key must be programmed to
work with your vehicle.
