Locking and unlocking with the remote control key
The buttons on the remote control key can be used to lock and unlock all doors, the tailgate and the fuel filler flap simultaneously.
Locking with the remote control key
The driver's door must be closed in order for the lock sequence to be activated2. If any of the other doors or the tailgate is open, then these are not locked and their alarms armed* until they are closed. The alarm's movement detectors* are activated when all the doors and the tailgate are closed and locked.
Note
Be aware of the risk of locking the remote control key in the car.
- A remote control key or Key Tag left in the car will be deactivated when the car is locked and the alarm is armed using another valid key. The "Deadlock" function is also deactivated. The deactivated key is reactivated when the car is unlocked.
- A Red Key left in the car will be deactivated even when the car is locked using Volvo On Call, and reactivated when the car is unlocked using Volvo On Call or by pressing the key's unlock button.
Locking when the tailgate is open
Note
Unlocking with the remote control key
Automatic relocking
If none of the doors or the tailgate is opened within two minutes of unlocking, they are locked automatically. This function prevents the car from being left unlocked unintentionally.
When the remote control key does not work
Note
If it is not possible to lock or unlock with the remote control key, the battery may be discharged - in which case, lock or unlock the driver's door with the detachable key blade.
