Detachable key blade

Your vehicle's remote key contains a detachable key blade that can be used to unlock the driver's door, etc.

A Volvo retailer can provide you with the key blade's unique code.

Using the detachable key blade

The remote key's detachable key blade can be used to:
  • Unlock the driver's door if the central locking system cannot be activated using the remote key
  • Lock all doors
  • Activate/deactivate the mechanical child safety locks in the rear doors
