Key, locks and alarm for Your Volvo Xc90 SUV 2020

Be aware of the risk of locking the remote

key in the vehicle.

When the remote control key is placed in

the cup holder, make sure that no other

vehicle keys, metal objects or electronic

devices (e.g. cell phones, tablets, laptops

or chargers) are found in the cup holder.

Multiple vehicle keys close to each other in

the cup holder can disrupt their functional-

ity.

Interference

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 key will be

reactivated when the vehicle is

unlocked.

•

Electromagnetic fields or obstructing objects

may interfere with the remote key's functions

for keyless start and keyless locking and

unlocking*.

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

Avoid storing the remote control key near

metal objects or electronic devices, e.g.

cell phones, tablets, laptops or chargers –

preferably no closer than 10-15 cm

(4-6 in.).

Driver profile for Red Key

A Red Key is linked to a specific Red Key

driver profile, and when it is active the key's

settings cannot be changed. It is also not pos-

sible to switch to another driver profile, as this

requires a regular remote key.

A Red Key makes it possible for the vehicle

owner to set limitations for certain vehicle

properties. The limitations are intended to

promote safe use of the vehicle, e.g. when it

is loaned out.

Volvo recommends that you order a new or

duplicate remote control key from an

authorized Volvo workshop.

You can also obtain additional or duplicate

remote control keys from certain independ-

ent repair facilities and locksmiths that are

qualified to make remote control keys.

Each key must be programmed to work

with your vehicle.

The Red Key driver profile is activated when

the vehicle is unlocked using a Red Key with-

out a regular remote key nearby.

locksmiths known to Volvo that can cut

and code replacement keys can be found:

If the vehicle changes owners, the vehicle

must be locked and then unlocked for a

new driver profile to be activated.
