Detachable key blade
The key blade's unique code is provided by authorised Volvo workshops, which are recommended when ordering new key blades.
The key blade's application areas
- the left-hand1 front door can be opened manually if central locking cannot be activated by pressing a button
- all doors are emergency-locked
- the rear doors' mechanical child lock can be activated and deactivated.
If the key blade has been used to unlock the car, the alarm can be disarmed and the car started by placing the key in the back-up reader in the tunnel console's cup holder.
The Key Tag accessory does not have a detachable key blade.
Taking out the key blade
Hold the key so that its front with the Volvo logotype is facing up, and with the keyring bracket facing you.
There is a catch on the left of the keyring bracket. If it is on the wrong side then the front and rear have been mixed up when they were assembled on an earlier occasion.
