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 a\
re 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 retail\
er for reprogramming as an
antitheft measure.
NOTE: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subjec\
t to the following

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 tailgate from a distance of 10-15 feet (3-5 me\
ters).
The transmitters will also activate or allow "keyless" entry into the pa\
ssenger compartment or the
tailgate. They will also activate or deactivate your vehicle's alarm sys\
tem(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.

WARNING!
Before starting, check that the seat, steering wheel and mirrors are adj\
usted properly. Make sure the
brake pedal can be depressed completely. Adjust the seat if necessary. S\
ee page
84 and 86.
- Apply the parking brake (hand brake) if not already set. The gear se\
lector (automatic transmission) is
locked in the (P)ark position (SHIFTLOCK). Manual transmission: the clutch must be fully depressed.
- Without touching the accelerator pedal, turn the ignition key
1 to the starting position. Allow the starter
to operate for up to 10 seconds. Release the key as soon as the engine s\
tarts. If the engine fails to start,
repeat this step.
NOTE:
l If the key blade section of the remote is not fully folded out when star\
ting the vehicle, the immobilizer
function may make it impossible to start the engine.
l After a cold start, idle speed may be noticeably higher than normal for \
a short period. This is done to
help bring components in the emission control system to their normal ope\
rating temperature as quickly
as possible, which enables them to control emissions and help reduce the\
vehicle's impact on the
environment.
l For cold starts at altitudes above 6000 ft (1800 meters), depress the \
accelerator pedal halfway and turn
the key to the starting position. Release the pedal slowly when the engi\
ne starts.
l To release the gear selector from the (P)ark position, the engine must be running (or the ignition key
must be in position II) and the brake pedal must be depressed.
l Select the desired gear. The gear engages after a very slight delay whic\
h is especially noticeable when
selecting R.
NOTE: Your vehicle is equipped with a KEYLOCK system (automatic transmission). When the engine
is switched off, the gear selector must be in the (P)ark position before the key can be removed from the
ignition switch.
When starting in cold weather, the transmission may shift up at slightly\
higher engine speeds than
normal until the automatic transmission fluid reaches normal operating t\
emperature.
1. If two of the keys to your vehicle are close together, e.g. on the sa\
me key ring, when you try to start the
vehicle, this could cause interference in the immobilizer system and res\
ult in the vehicle not starting. If this
should occur, remove one of the keys from the key ring before trying to \
start the vehicle again.

rol modules.
- Remove the bolts on the retaining bracket over the battery and lift ou\
t the bracket.
- Fold up the plastic cover over the negative (ground) battery termina\
l. or unscrew the cover over the
battery.
- Disconnect the negative cable.
- Lift off the plastic cover if necessary and disconnect the positive ca\
ble.

WARNING!
Ventilation hose:
l The battery generates hydrogen gas, which is flammable and explosive. Th\
e battery is fitted with a
ventilation hose which vents hydrogen gas out of the battery compartment\
through a ventilation
opening in the bottom of this compartment. If the battery must be replac\
ed, it is essential that the
ventilation hose is properly connected to the battery and that it is rou\
ted through the ventilation
opening provided (see illustration).
