Driving distance on current fuel reserve This function shows the approximate distance that can be driven on the fuel
remaining in the tank. This calculation is based on average fuel consumption during the last 12 miles (20 km) of
driving and the amount of fuel remaining in the tank when the reading was taken. When the driving distance on current
fuel reserve is less than 12 miles (20 km), "----" will be displayed in the text window.
2. Average fuel consumption This value indicates fuel consumption since the last time the trip computer was reset (by
pressing RESET, button C). When the engine is switched off, information on fuel consumption is stored and remains in
system memory until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.
3. Current fuel consumption This value indicates the current fuel consumption, based on readings taken once per
second. When the car is not moving, "----" will be displayed.
4. Average speed This value indicates average speed since the last time the trip computer was reset (by pressing
RESET, button C). When the engine is switched off, information on average speed is stored and remains in system
memory until the RESET (button C) is pressed again.

Remote keyless entry system
Your car is equipped with a remote control transmitter. This transmitter uses a radio frequency which will allow
"keyless" entry into the passenger compartment or the tailgate. Your car is supplied with two coded key ring
transmitters, which will enable you to lock/ unlock all doors and the tailgate from a distance of 10-15 feet (3-5 meters).
The remote transmitter will also activate or deactivate the your car's alarm system(s). 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 the transmitters is
misplaced, contact your nearest authorized Volvo retailer for assistance.
Using the remote control
Press the LOCK button once to lock all doors, fuel filler door and tailgate.
Press the UNLOCK button once to unlock the driver's door only. Press this button again (within 10 seconds) to
unlock all doors, fuel filler door and tailgate.
To open the tailgate (without unlocking the other doors), press the tailgate -unlock button twice.
NOTE:
If the doors are unlocked with the remote, the locks will automatically reengage (re-lock) and the alarm will reset
after 2 minutes unless a door has been opened.
The lock/unlock and alarm features can also be utilized by using the keys.
