Warning
Avoid storing cards with NFC2 near the card reader when using the charging function. Wireless charging can damage them.
Keep sensitive devices away from the car's sensors so that neither suffer interference nor damage.
The car's use of Bluetooth, UWB3 and NFC signals may cause disturbances in other devices at certain distances.
Important
Do not place cards with NFC, such as key cards or electronic payment cards, between the wireless charger and the device when using the charging function. This could damage them.
Keep sensitive devices away from the car's sensors so that neither suffer interference nor damage.
Before charging the key fob, make sure there are no other objects on the charger.
Place the tag on the centre of the wireless charger with the logo facing upwards.

Tip
Important
To maintain optimal battery health, don't leave the battery fully discharged for long periods.
If the tag is left with a flat battery for too long, you won't be able to recharge it. If the battery is completely flat and does not respond to being recharged, you can buy a new one. Contact an authorised Volvo workshop for more information.
Note
The card reader and wireless charger are located in the same place. Therefore, if you have any kind of car key on the card reader, you have to remove it to be able to wirelessly charge a phone.
If the tag is too hot or too cold it will not charge correctly.
The car will not respond to any key if the car battery is completely flat.
Remember that even if the key tag has a flat battery, it can still be used as a key card.
