Introduction
Two remote keys or optional Personal Car
Communicators (PCC) are provided with your
vehicle. They enable you to unlock the doors
and tailgate, and also function as ignition
keys to start the vehicle or operate electrical
components. 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 90 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 private lock-
ing function. See page 64 for more informa-
tion on the key blade and page 67 for infor-
mation on the private 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.
