Red Key - restricted remote key
*
A Red Key makes it possible for the vehicle owner to set limitations for certain vehicleproperties. The limitations are intended topromote safe use of the vehicle, e.g. when itis loaned out.
For a Red Key, it is possible to define the vehi- cle's maximum speed, set speed remindersand limit the audio system's volume. Severalof the driver support systems will also alwaysbe active. Otherwise, the Red Key functions inthe same way as a standard remote key. These restrictions are intended to help reduce the risk of accidents and help the driver feelmore secure when handing over the vehicle toe.g. a young driver, parking attendant or work-shop.
Driver profile for Red KeyA Red Key is linked to a specific Red Keydriver profile, and when it is active the key'ssettings cannot be changed. It is also not pos-sible to switch to another driver profile, as thisrequires a regular remote key. The Red Key driver profile is activated when the vehicle is unlocked using a Red Key with-out a regular remote key nearby.
NOTE
If the vehicle changes owners, the vehicle must be locked and then unlocked for anew driver profile to be activated.
Ordering a Red KeyOne or more Red Key can be ordered from a Volvo retailer. A total of twelve keys can beprogrammed and used for the same vehicle.Up to ten may be restricted keys, but at leasttwo must be standard remote keys.
