These remotes can also be used to operate the windows, sunroof, and even the tailgate of your vehicle. It’s possible to reprogram your key fob if you misplace it or if the battery goes out. This process isn’t difficult and can be accomplished at home. 
 
First, lay out a clean work surface. Then, place your key fob on the surface with the Volvo logo facing upwards. There is an option on the key fob’s bottom side that you can slide down and then to the right. This button can open the cover that covers the key blade. The cover is secured by two clips on the key-ring loop portion. The mechanical key blade can be seen beneath the cover when you remove it. 
 
Once you’ve removed a key fob’s case, locate an unassuming black button on the key-ring loop. There should be a click sound if you press the button several times. If you don’t hear a click, it could be necessary to push it a few times more. After that, you’ll be able to put the key fob back in its slot so that the button is facing downwards. Press the unlock and lock buttons at the same time to test the keyfob. Listen for the sound of a click.
