Locks and remote keys
The vehicle can be locked and unlocked in vari-
ous ways and there are several types of remote
keys that can be used.
Locking/unlocking/opening/closing
The vehicle can be locked/unlocked from the
passenger compartment, using the buttons on
the remote key or by using the optional Passive
Entry system where it is only necessary to have a
key in your possession to lock or unlock the
doors.
On models equipped with a power trunk
*
, it can
also be opened/closed by moving your foot
under a sensor
*
beneath the rear bumper.
If for any reason a remote key does not function
properly, it may be necessary to replace its bat-
teries but the vehicle can always be locked or
unlocked manually using the remote key's
detachable key blade.
Remote key
The remote key does not have to be physically
handled in order to start the engine because the
vehicle is equipped with the standard Passive
Start system (the key only needs to be in the
front part of the passenger compartment). If the
vehicle is equipped with the optional Passive
Entry system that enables keyless entry and start,
the key can be anywhere in the vehicle when the
engine is started.
Models with Passive Entry
*
also have an extra,
smaller key without buttons called a Key Tag.
Additional keys can be ordered from a Volvo
retailer.

Immobilizer
The immobilizer is a start inhibitor that helps pre-
vent unauthorized persons from starting the
engine.
Each of the keys supplied with your vehicle con-
tains a unique coded transponder. The vehicle
code in the key is transmitted to the vehicle's
ignition system where it is compared to the code
stored in the start inhibitor module.
The following message (which may appear in the
instrument panel) is related to the immobilizer:
