WARNING!
 Keep vehicle doors and  the luggage compartment locked and  keep keys out of a  child's  reach. Unsupervised
children could lock themselves  in an  open  trunk and  risk injury. Children should be  taught not to play in vehicles.
 On hot days, the temperature in the trunk or vehicle interior  can rise  very quickly. Exposure of people to these
high temperatures for even a  short period of time can cause heat-related injury or death. Small children are
particularly at risk.
WARNING!
 When the backrest is returned to the upright position, check that it is properly locked in place. Return the head
restraints to the upright position.
 Long loads should always be  securely anchored to help avoid injury in the event of a  sudden stop.
 Always turn the engine off and  apply the parking brake when loading/ unloading the vehicle.
 Place the transmission in the (P)ark position (automatic transmission) to help prevent inadvertent movement of the
gear selector.
 The vehicle features a  60/40 split fold-downs rear seat. This function is performed by handles inside the trunk,
and  also provides  a  means for children and  adults to enter the passenger  compartment in the event they become
locked inside the trunk.
 Adults are advised to familiarize themselves  with the operation and  location of the release handles.
 To fold down the rear seats  from  inside the trunk, pull the release control handles located on either side of the
trunk.

Keys
Two types of keys are provided with your vehicle; master keys and  a  service (valet) key.  The master key,  the remote
control, and  the central locking button may all be  used to lock and  unlock all of your vehicle's locks.
The service key  will operate  only the driver's door and  the ignition switch. It is intended  to help deter unwanted entry
into the glove compartment and  trunk.
 Turn  the key  once to unlock the driver's door only.
ProCarManuals.com 

 Turn  the key  again (within 10 seconds) to unlock all doors and  the trunk.
 One turn with the key  towards lock in the drivers door locks all doors and  the trunk.
 Use the switch on the driver's door armrest to lock/unlock the vehicle from  the inside.
WARNING!
If the doors are locked while driving, this  may hinder rapid access to the occupants of the vehicle in the event of an
accident. (Also see information on "Child  safety locks")
NOTE:  To help prevent accidentally locking the keys in the vehicle, the central locking system is designed to unlock
the doors immediately if the key  is left in the ignition switch, the vehicle is locked using the lock button on the door
and  the door is then closed. A sound from  the lock will be  audible  at this  time.
Please note that this  function will  not unlock the doors if the engine is running.
Immobilizer (start inhibitor)
Each of the keys supplied with your vehicle contains a  coded transmitter. The code in the key  is transmitted to an
antenna in the ignition switch where  it is compared  to the code stored  in the start inhibitor  module. The vehicle will
start only with a  properly coded key.
Each key  has a  unique code, which  your Volvo retailer uses if new keys are required. A maximum of six remote
controls/keys can be  programmed and  used for one  vehicle. If you misplace a  key,  take the other keys to an  authorized
Volvo retailer for reprogramming as an  antitheft measure.
NOTE:  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. 97 Locks and alarm
Remote control
Your vehicle is equipped with two coded remote control transmitters with integrated ignition keys called Key
Integrated Remote (KIR). These transmitters use a  radio frequency that will enable you to lock/unlock all doors and  the
trunk from  a  distance of 10- 15 feet (3-5 meters).
The transmitters will also activate or allow "keyless"  entry into the passenger  compartment or the trunk. They will also
activate or deactivate your vehicle's alarm system(s). The vehicle can also be  locked/  unlocked with the key.
If one  of the transmitters is misplaced, contact your nearest authorized Volvo retailer for replacement.
