Locking and unlocking using the remote key
All doors and tailgate can be locked and unlocked simultaneously using the buttons on the remote key.
Locking with remote key
Press the button on the remote key to lock.
To activate the locking sequence, the driver's door must be closed2. If any of the other doors or the tailgate are open, they will be locked and the alarm will be armed once they are closed.
Note
Be aware of the risk of locking the remote key in the vehicle.
- If the remote key or Key Tag is left in the vehicle, it will be deactivated when the vehicle is locked and the alarm set using another valid key. The deactivated key will be reactivated when the vehicle is unlocked.
- If the remote key or Red Key is left in the vehicle, it will be deactivated even if the vehicle is locked using Volvo On Call, and will be reactivated when the vehicle is unlocked using Volvo On Call or by pressing the unlock button on the key.
Locking when the tailgate is open
Note
If the vehicle is locked and the tailgate is still open, make sure that the remote key is not left in the cargo compartment when the tailgate is closed and the entire vehicle is locked3.
Unlocking with remote key
Press the button on the remote key to unlock.
Automatic relocking
If none of the doors or tailgate are opened within two minutes after being unlocked, they will automatically relock. This function reduces the risk of inadvertently leaving the vehicle unlocked.
Remote key not working
Note
Move closer to the vehicle and try to unlock it again.
If the remote key is not working to lock or unlock the vehicle, its battery may be discharged. Use the detachable key blade to lock/unlock the driver's door instead.
