02 Locks and alarmRemote key and key blade 02
50 Introduction
Two remote keys or optional Personal Car
Communicators (PCC) are provided with your
vehicle. They enable you to unlock the doors
and tailgate, and also function as ignition keys
to start the vehicle or operate electrical com-
ponents. The remote keys contain detachable
metal key blades for manually locking or
unlocking the driver\fs door and the glove com-
partment. Up to six remotes can be pro-
grammed for use on the same vehicle.
The PCCs have enhanced functionality com-
pared with the standard remote control.
NOTE
In the remainder of this chapter, all referen-
ces to the remote key also pertain to the
PCC unless otherwise stated.
WARNING
Never leave the remote key in the ignition if
children are to remain in the vehicle.
Detachable key bladeEach remote key or PCC contains a detachable
metal key blade for mechanically locking or
unlocking the driver\fs door and the glove com-
partment. The key blades have a unique code,
which is used if new ones need to be produced. This code is available at an authorized Volvo
retailer.
Loss of a remote keyIf a remote key is lost, the other one must be
taken with the vehicle to a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician. As an anti-theft
measure, the code of the lost remote must be
erased from the system.
The number of registered keys for the vehicle
can be found in the vehicle\fs menu under
Car
settings Car key memory Number of
keys. See page 122 for a description of the
menu system.

Immobilizer (start inhibitor)Each of the keys supplied with your vehicle
contains a coded transponder. The code in the
key is transmitted to an antenna in the ignition
slot where it is compared to the code stored in
the start inhibitor module. The vehicle will start
only with a properly coded key. If you misplace
a key, take the other keys to a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician for reprog-
ramming as an antitheft measure. The follow-
ing messages (which may appear in the instru-
ment panel display) are related to the immobil-
izer: Message Meaning
