Key 
The master key  is integrated into the remote keyless  entry system's remote control.
 To fold out the key,  press the button indicated by the downward pointing arrow in the illustration above.
 To retract the key,  press the button and  fold the key  into the slot  in the remote control. 
The key  activates all locks (ignition  switch/steering wheel lock, all doors, fuel filler  door, trunk/tailgate), and

Service Key (Valet key)  
This key  (grey in color) activates only ignition switch/steering wheel lock and  all doors, including the fuel filler  door.
Immobilizer (start inhibitor)  
Each of the keys supplied with your car is electronically  coded. When the key  is inserted into the ignition switch, the
code is transmitted to and  compared  with a  code stored  in the start inhibitor  module. The car can only be  started if a
properly coded key  is used. 
If you misplace a  key,  take the other keys to an  authorized Volvo retailer. The existing code in the start inhibitor
module and  all the keys will be  erased as an  anti-theft measure and  a  new code will be  programmed in.
NOTE:  
You should never keep more than one  of your ignition keys on the ring at the same time. This could cause conflicting
signals to be  transmitted to the ignition switch, making it impossible to start the car.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules.  Operation is subject to the following condition: (1) This device
may not cause harmful interference, and  (2) this  device must  accept any  interference received,  including interference
that may cause undesired operation.

pg. 43 Alarm
Alarm 
The radio signal emitted from  the transmitter, which  is used to set/unset the alarm, is a  "rolling code" signal. This
means that the signal is changed randomly for each transmission and  is intended  to help prevent unauthorized
recording of the code. 
When armed (set), the alarm continuously monitors a  number of points  on the car. The following conditions will set off
the alarm:
 The hood is opened
 The trunk/tailgate is opened
 A door is opened
 The ignition switch is tampered with 
The alarm will sound for 30 second intervals,  with a  10 second pause between intervals.  This function cannot be
interrupted.
 If the battery or the siren  are disconnected, the alarm will sound for five minutes
Arming (setting) the alarm  
The alarm can be  armed in the following ways:
ProCarManuals.com 

Scratches on the surface If the stone chip has not penetrated down to the metal and  an  undamaged layer of paint
remains, the touchup paint can be  applied  as soon as the spot has been cleaned.
Deep scratches  
1. Place a  strip of masking tape over the damaged surface.  Pull the tape off so that any  loose flakes of paint adhere to
it. 
2. Thoroughly mix the primer and  apply it with a  small brush.
When the primer surface  is dry, the paint can be  applied  using a  brush. Mix the paint thoroughly; apply several thin
paint coats and  let dry after each application.  
3. If there is a  longer scratch, you may want  to protect surrounding paint by masking it off.
pg. 103 Washing
Washing the car
 The car should be  washed at regular intervals  since dirt, dust, insects and  tar spots adhere to the paint and  may cause
damage.
NOTE:  It is particularly important to wash the car frequently in the wintertime to prevent corrosion, when salt has
been used on the roads.
 When washing the car, do not expose it to direct sunlight. Use lukewarm water to soften  the dirt before you wash
with a  sponge, and  plenty of water, to avoid scratching.
Bird  droppings:  Remove from  paintwork as soon as possible. Otherwise the finish may be  permanently damaged.
 A detergent can be  used to facilitate the softening of dirt and  oil.
 A water-soluble grease solvent may be  used in cases of sticky dirt. However, use a  wash place equipped with a
drainage  separator.
 Dry the car with a  clean chamois and  remember to clean the drain holes in the doors and  rocker panels.
 The power radio antenna (sedans) must  be  dried after washing.
 Tar spots can be  removed with kerosene or tar remover after the car has been washed.
 A stiff-bristle brush and  lukewarm soapy water can be  used to clean the wiper blades. Frequent cleaning improves
visibility considerably.
 Wash off the dirt from  the underside (wheel housings fenders,  etc.).
 In areas of high industrial fallout, more frequent washing is recommended.
CAUTION:  During high pressure washing, the spray nozzle must  never be  closer to the vehicle than 13" (30 cm). Do
not spray into the locks.

pg. 130 Anti -theft code - HU-415 and HU-615
Anti-theft code
The radio features anti-theft circuitry. If the set is removed from  the vehicle or if the battery power is disconnected, a
special code must  be  entered  to enable operation of the set. 
Your Volvo retailer will supply you with this code.
NOTE: Volvo recommends that you store  the radio code in a  safe place.
A red LED  will flash  when the key  had  been removed from the ignition to confirm that the anti-theft circuitry has
been activated.
To enter the code
After installation  or when the set has been disconnected from  power, the set displays "input CODE ****" when it is
switched on.

then push the knob to enter the number. Repeat the procedure for all 4 digits.
If the correct code is entered  the set is ready to use.
If you enter an  incorrect code you must  enter the correct code again from  the beginning.

If an  incorrect code has been entered  "Error" is displayed. Enter the correct code. After three unsuccessful coding
attempts the set will lock and  remain locked for two hours.
