Remote keyless entry system
Your car is equipped with a remote control transmitter. This transmitter uses a readio frequency which will allow
“keyless” entry into the passenger compartment or the trunk. You will be supplied with two coded key ring
transmitters, which willenable you to lock/unlock all doors and the trunk/tailgate from a distance of 10-15 feet (3-5
meters).
The car can also be locked/unlocked with the key.
As an extra security precaution in certain situations (valet parking,etc.), Volvo recommends that the transmitter not be
included when the keys are given to anyone. The service key can be used instead. If one of transmitters is misplaced ,
contact the nearest authorized Volvo retailer for assistance.
Using the remote control
· Press the LOCK button once to lock all doors and trunk/tailgate.
· Press the UNLOCK button once to unlock the driver’s door only. Press this button again (within 10 seconds) to

with clean water.
WARNING!
When the car is driven immediately after being washed, apply the brake several times in order to remove any
moisture from the brake linings.
Engine cleaning agents should not be used when the engine is warm. This constitutes a fire risk.
NOTE: When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills. Bumpers: Wash
the bumpers with the same cleaning agent used on the rest of the car. Never clean the bumpers with gasoline or paint
thinner. Difficultspots can be removed with denatured alcohol. To avoid scratches, do not dry the bumpers with paper.
* Pay special attention to the drain holes near the base of the windshield in the cowl under the rear edge of the hood.
pg. 113 Automatic car washing, Polishing and waxing
Automatic washing - simple and quick
An automatic wash is a simple and quick way to clean your car, but it is worth remembering that it may not be as
thorough as when you yourself go over the car with sponge and water. Keeping the underbody clean is most important,
especially in the winter. Some automatic washers do not have facilities for washing the underbody.
Before driving into an automatic wash, make sure that the side view mirrors, auxiliary lamps, etc., are secure,
otherwise there is risk of the machine dislodging them. You should also lower the antenna (sedans).
We do NOT recommend washing your car in an automatic wash during the first six months (because the paint will not
have hardened sufficiently).
Polishing and waxing
Normally, polishing is not required during the first year after delivery, however, waxing may be beneficial.
