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 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 retailer for reprogramming as an antitheft m\
easure.
If two of the keys to your vehicle are close together, e.g., on the same\
key ring, when you try to start the
vehicle, this could cause interference in the immobilizer system and res\

Remote controls
Your vehicle is equipped with two coded remote control transmitters with\
integrated ignition keys called

WARNING!
Never use the transmitter to lock the doors from inside the vehicle.
Doing so would ACTIVATE:
l the break-in alarm, which would sound if one of the doors were opened
l the optional interior motion and inclination alarm sensors.
Doing so would DEACTIVATE:
l the moonroof and interior courtesy light controls.
l the central locking buttons on the front door armrests, although the int\
erior door handles would still
function to allow occupants to leave the vehicle.
Disabled features would remain disabled until the remote is used again t\
o unlock the vehicle.
In addition, locking an occupied vehicle would hinder rapid access to th\
e occupants in an accident or
emergency.
Replacing the battery in the remote control
If the range of the transmitter is noticeably reduced, this indicates th\
at the battery is weak and should be
replaced.
To replace the battery:
- Carefully pry open the rear edge of the cover with a small screwdriver\
.
- Insert a new 3-volt, CR2032 battery, with the battery's plus side up. \
Avoid touching the contact
surfaces of the battery with your fingers.
- Press the cover back into place. Ensure that the rubber seal is correc\
tly positioned to help keep out

Locking and unlocking
Locking and unlocking the vehicle from the inside
The switch on the driver's door armrest can be used to lock or unlock al\
l doors and the tailgate, and to
set the alarm.
Each door can also be locked with the lock button on the respective door\
and opened by pulling the door
handle on the door.
Automatic locking
The function locks the doors automatically when the vehicle's speed exce\
eds approximately 5 mph (7
km/h). The doors will then remain locked until a door

Fuel filler door
Press the button on the light switch panel (see illustration on
page 56) when the vehicle is at a standstill to unlock the fuel
filler door. Please note that the fuel filler door will remain unlocked \
until the vehicle begins to move forward. An audible
click will be heard when the fuel filler door relocks.
If you intend to leave your vehicle while it is being refueled, this fea\
ture enables you to lock the doors/tailgate while
leaving the fuel filler door unlocked.
You can also keep the vehicle locked if you remain inside it during refu\
eling. The central locking button does not lock the
fuel filler door. Be sure the fuel filler door is not obstructed and is \
completely closed after refueling.
Open the fuel filler cap slowly during hot weather.
NOTE: During a transitional period, a small number of service stations may st\
ill have fuel nozzles that are not compatible
with the fuel filler neck on vehicles equipped with the evaporative cont\
rol system.
Refueling
The fuel tank holds approximately 21.1 US gals. (80 liters) with suffi\
cient volume left over to accommodate possible
expansion of the fuel in hot weather. Be aware that the "usable" tank ca\
pacity will be somewhat less than the specified
maximum. When the fuel level is low, such factors as ambient temperature\
, the fuel's "Reid vapor pressure"
characteristics, and terrain can affect the fuel pump's ability to suppl\
y the engine with an adequate supply of fuel.
Therefore, it is advisable to refuel as soon as possible when the needle\
nears the red zone, or when the fuel warning light
comes on.
WARNING!
Never carry a cell phone that is switched on while refueling your vehicle. If the phone rings, this may cause a spar\
k that
could ignite gasoline fumes, resulting in fire and injury.

- Select the desired gear. The gear engages after a very slight delay wh\
ich is especially noticeable when selecting R.
NOTE: Your vehicle is equipped with a KEYLOCK system. 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. W\
hen starting in cold weather, the
transmission may shift up at slightly higher engine speeds than normal u\
ntil the automatic transmission fluid reaches
normal operating temperature.
NOTE: Do not race a cold engine immediately after starting. Oil flow may not \
reach some lubrication points fast enough
to prevent engine damage.
WARNING!
An extra mat on the driver's floor can cause the accelerator pedal to ca\
tch. Check that the movement of the accelerator
pedal is not impeded. No more than one protective floor covering may be \
used at one time.
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 result in the vehicle not sta\
rting. If this should occur, remove one of the keys from the key
ring before trying to start the vehicle again.
2. On vehicles equipped with the autostart feature, release the key imme\
diately. See also
page 121.
pg. 120 Starting and driving
Starting the vehicle
WARNING!
Always place the gear selector in Park and apply the parking brake befor\
e leaving the vehicle. Never leave the vehicle
unattended with the engine running. Always open garage doors fully befor\
e starting the engine inside a garage to ensure
adequate ventilation. The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide, which i\
s invisible and odorless but very poisonous.
CAUTION!
Automatic transmission
The engine should be idling when you move the gear selector. Never accel\
erate until after you feel the transmission
engage! Accelerating immediately after selecting a gear will cause harsh\
engagement and premature transmission wear.
Selecting P or N when idling at a standstill for prolonged periods of ti\
me will help prevent overheating of the automatic
transmission fluid.

CAUTION!
- Check local regulations regarding the use of snow chains before instal\
ling.
- Always follow the chain manufacturer's installation instructions caref\
ully. Install chains as tightly as
possible and retighten periodically.
- Never exceed the chain manufacturer's specified maximum speed limit. (\
Under no circumstances
should you exceed 31 mph (50 km/h)).
- Avoid bumps, holes or sharp turns when driving with snow chains.
- The handling of the vehicle can be adversely affected when driving wit\
h chains. Avoid fast or sharp
turns as well as locked wheel braking.
Snow tires, studded tires

Tires for winter use:
l Owners who live in or regularly commute through areas with sustained per\
iods of snow or icy driving
conditions are strongly advised to fit suitable winter tires to help ret\
ain the highest degree of traction.
l It is important to install winter tires on all four wheels to help retai\
n traction during cornering,
braking, and accelerating. Failure to do so could reduce traction to an \
unsafe level or adversely affect
handling.
l Do not mix tires of different design as this could also negatively affec\
t overall tire road grip.
l Winter tires wear more quickly on dry roads in warm weather. They should\
be removed when the
winter driving season has ended.
l Studded tires should be run-in 300-600 miles (500-1000 km) during whic\
h the vehicle should be
driven as smoothly as possible to give the studs the opportunity to seat\
properly in the tires. The tires
should have the same rotational direction throughout their entire lifeti\
me.
NOTE: Please consult state or provincial regulations restricting the use of s\
tudded winter tires before
installing such tires.

Temporary spare
The spare tire in your vehicle is called a "Temporary Spare".
Recommended tire pressure (see the placard on the B-pillar or on the fu\
el filler door) should be
maintained irrespective of which position on the vehicle the temporary s\
pare tire is used.
In the event of damage to this tire, a new one can be purchased from you\
r Volvo retailer.
