Our team at Volvo Cars Mission Viejo has all the answers! How to Unlock Your Vehicle Modern electronic key fobs provide superior convenience and performance to a traditional manual key. However, they do require batteries that will eventually wear out and need to be replaced. If your Volvo keyfob is working only intermittently, the battery could be failing and you'll need to replace it in the near future. You can replace the Volvo key fob batteries by following a couple of steps. Find a clean area to work on. Place all the tools you'll require. Find the battery's hatch, and then open it with a flathead, coin, or other similar tool. Then, carefully remove the battery from its socket by lifting up on the side closest to the key-ring loop. Use rubber gloves to protect the clips and electronic contact surfaces. Place the new battery into the socket once the old one is removed. Make sure that the positive side is facing upwards and that it is securely seated in all the clips. Then slide the cover down and toward the key-ring loop until it is loose and then slides off. Remove the cover to reveal the hidden key blade. You can use it to unlock your car from the driver's doors if you have lost or damaged your key fob. How to Start Your Vehicle Modern vehicles are usually equipped with key fobs which can do more than simply unlock or lock the doors. They can also perform useful functions such as summoning or auto parking the vehicle. In fact, the latest Volvo XC60 can even remotely start your engine by using its key fob buttons. But how exactly does it work? First, find a clean, flat surface where you can lay out all the necessary items needed for this project. Then, lay the fob down on the surface with its Volvo logo facing upwards. Next utilize a flathead screwdriver, coin or similar tool to switch the battery hatch from the open position. Be careful not to touch the electronic contact surfaces using your tools. This can cause the fob to stop working properly. Once the hatch is open and the battery is in its socket and make sure it is in the correct position with the positive (+) side facing up. Once the clips are locked into place, replace your battery cover and reassemble the fob. Pressing the unlock button once will turn off the alarm and unlock the driver's side door. Repeating this action will unlock all doors as well as the tailgate. The unlock button can also be used to open the windows during hot days or to let in fresh air before stepping out on the road. If you're in the market for more than that, the key fob could also be used to turn on ERS, which can start the system for controlling your vehicle's temperature and warm or cool it to the desired temperature settings when the vehicle is in a parking spot.
