Doors and locks

Your car is equipped with a two door operated central locking system.
The key, used on either of the front doors, will lock/unlock all doors, \
trunk/tailgate and on certain
models also the fuel tank cover.

Turn the key once to unlock the door in which the key is inserted.
Turn the key again (within 10 seconds) to unlock all doors, trunk/tail\
gate and on certain models also the
fuel tank cover.

One turn with the key towards lock in one of the front doors locks all d\
oors, trunk/tailgate and fuel tank
filler cap.

Use the switch on the instrument panel to lock/unlock the car from the i\
nside. This button will only
function when the doors are closed.

Check the action of the buttons on the other doors to verify their corre\
ct function (lock/unlock). The
driver's door can be locked only by using the key when outside the vehic\
le. On vehicles equipped with
the optional remote control locking system, refer to the following page.\

Remote keyless entry system

As an option, your car can be equipped with a remote control transmitter\
. This transmitter uses a radio
frequency which will allow "keyless" entry into the passenger compartmen\
t 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 lock :
Press button 1 once to lock all doors and trunk/tailgate.

To unlock :
Press button 2 once to unlock the driver's door only.
Press button 2 again (within 10 seconds) to unlock all doors and trunk\
/tailgate.


Aim the base of the remote control unit at the car to get the best range\
.

On vehicles equipped with an alarm, the alarm will also be activated/dea\
ctivated by this system.
As an extra security precaution in certain situations (valet parking, e\
tc.), Volvo recommends that the
transmitter not be included when the keys are given to anyone. The servi\
ce key can be used instead. If
one of the transmitters is misplaced, contact the nearest authorized Vol\
vo retailer for assistance.

Batteries

The remote transmitter is powered by 2 three-volt batteries, type CR 122\
0. If three short signals are
audible from the transmitter each time you lock/unlock the car, this ind\
icates that the batteries are weak.
Replacement: Remove the battery cover on the back of the transmitter wit\
h a coin. Replace the batteries.
Reinstall the cover, making sure it is secured tightly to help protect t\
he transmitter.
