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.

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

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.

remote key – this is where the transponder
is located. The car cannot be started if the
transponder is damaged.
