The key tag works at a distance to lock, unlock and start the car, but it can also be used in the same way as a key card.
To use it like a key card, place it on the driver's door handle with the logo facing towards you.
Charging the key tag
Use the wireless charger between the front seats or a wireless1 charger to recharge the tag.
Battery level
You can see the battery status of any connected key tag in the car status view.
Important
- 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.
- If the car does not detect your key tag while you are in the car, then the car won't lock when you leave. To update the key detection status, place the key on the key reader.
Note
- To maintain optimal battery health, avoid leaving the battery fully discharged for long periods.
- If your key tag stops working at a distance, it may be due to a low battery. Be aware that the signals between the key and the car can also be affected by obstacles or interference from other signals.
- Remember that even if the key tag has a flat battery, it can still be used as a key card.
Warning
The key tag includes a non-replaceable battery which can be extremely hazardous. Keep batteries out of reach of children. If you suspect a battery has been ingested or in any way inserted into the body, seek immediate medical attention. Battery fluid is also hazardous and physical contact with it should be avoided.
