Remote keys
Two remote keys that also function as ignition
keys are provided with your car. The remote
keys contain detachable metal key blades for
manually locking or unlocking the driver's door
and the glove compartment.
USA – FCC ID: LTQVO315TXThis device complies with part 15 of the FCC
rules. Operation is subject to the following con-
ditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interfer-
ence that may cause undesired operation.
Canada – IC: 3659AVO315TXOperation is subject to the following condi-
tions: (1) this device may not cause interfer-
ence, and (2) this device must accept any inter-

Loss of a remote key
If either of the remote keys is lost, the other
must be taken with the car to a Volvo retailer.
As an anti-theft measure, the code of the lost
remote key must be erased from the system.
Each key blade has a unique code, which is
used if new key blades are required. A maxi-
mum of six remote keys/key blades can be
programmed and used for one car.
Immobilizer (start inhibitor)
Each of the keys supplied with your car con-
tains a coded transponder. 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 car will start
only with a properly coded key. If you misplace
a key, take the other keys to an authorized
Volvo retailer for reprogramming as an antitheft
measure.
CAUTION
Never use force on the narrow section of the
remote key – this is where the transponder
is located. The car cannot be started if the
transponder is damaged.
