• If the belt has been subjected to a

major load, such as in a collision, the

entire belt must be replaced. This

includes the reel, mountings, bolts and

buckles. Some of the protective charac-

teristics of the belt may have been lost,

even if it appears to be undamaged.

seatbelt reminder does not switch on.

Seatbelt reminder

Seatbelts and pregnancy

The seatbelt warning symbol in the combined

instrument panel and above the rearview

mirror flashes until the driver and front seat

passenger buckle their seatbelts. The

seatbelt reminder switches off after

6 seconds if speed is below 10 km/h. If the

driver or front seat passenger have not

buckled their seatbelts, the reminder

switches on if speed exceeds 10 km/h and

switches off if speed drops below 5 km/h. If

the belt is released, the function reactivates

when speed exceeds 10 km/h.

It is extremely important that the seatbelt is

used correctly during pregnancy. It should be

in contact with the body. The upper part of

the seatbelt should fit between the breasts

and against the side of the abdomen. The hip

section of the seatbelt must be flat and as far

under the abdomen as possible. It must not

slide up towards the abdomen.

An expectant mother who is driving should

move the seat as far back as possible in order

to obtain the greatest possible distance

between the steering wheel and the

abdomen. Set the steering wheel as far

forward as a comfortable driving position

permits.

NOTE! The seatbelt reminder is intended for

an adult sitting in the front seat. If a belt-fitted

Safety

Seatbelts

Seatbelt tensioner

All the seatbelts (except the centre rear belt)

are equipped with belt tensioners. A

mechanism in the belt tensioner tightens the

belt around the body in the event of a suffi-

ciently violent collision. This provides more

effective restraint for passengers.

WARNING!

If the belt has been subjected to a heavy

load, such as in a collision, the entire belt

including reel, mounting, bolts and buckle

must be replaced. Even if the belt seems

undamaged, some of its protective

properties may have been lost. The belt

should also be replaced if it is worn or

damaged. The new belt should be type

approved and intended for the same seat

as the belt being replaced.

Never modify or repair the belt yourself.

Entrust this work to an authorised Volvo

workshop.

Airbags (SRS)

WARNING!

To minimise the risk of injury if the airbag

deploys, passengers must sit as upright

as possible with their feet on the floor and

backs against the backrest. Seatbelts

must be secured.

WARNING!

• Never place a child in a child seat or on

a booster cushion in the front seat if the

airbag (SRS) is activated.

• Never allow a child to stand or sit in

front of the front passenger seat.

• No one shorter than 140 cm should sit

in the front passenger seat if the airbag

(SRS) is activated.

Airbag (SRS) on the driver’s

side

Passenger airbag (SRS)

The passenger airbag is fitted behind a

The car has an SRS airbag (Supplemental

Restraint System) in the steering wheel to

supplement the protection afforded by the

seatbelt. This airbag is fitted into the centre of

the steering wheel. The steering wheel is

marked SRS AIRBAG.

Failure to follow the advice given above

can endanger the life of the child.

Safety

WARNING!

Work on the SRS system can cause

malfunction and result in serious personal

injury.

Repairs must only be performed by an

authorised Volvo workshop.

Airbags (SRS)

NOTE! The airbags have a function whereby

their capacities are adapted to the collision

force to which the vehicle is subjected.

SRS system, left-hand drive

SRS system, right-hand drive

NOTE! The sensors react differently

depending on the course of the collision and

whether the seatbelts on the driver and

passenger side are used. It is therefore

possible that only one (or none) of the

airbags may inflate in a collision. The SRS

system senses the force of the collision on

the car and adapts accordingly so that one or

more airbags is deployed.

SRS system

The SRS system consists of a gas generator

surrounded by an inflatable airbag. A suffi-

ciently violent collision trips sensors and

ignites the gas generator, inflating the airbag

with hot gas. To cushion the impact, the

airbag deflates when compressed. When this

occurs, smoke escapes into the car. This is

completely normal. The entire process,

including inflation and deflation of the airbag,

occurs within tenths of a second.

Safety

Activating/deactivating the airbag (SRS)

WARNING!

Activated airbag (passenger seat):

Never place a child in a child seat or on a

booster cushion in the front passenger

seat. This also applies to persons shorter

than 140 cm.

Deactivated airbag (passenger seat):

Persons taller than 140 cm must never sit

in the passenger seat.

Failure to follow the advice given above

can endanger life.

PACOS (Passenger Airbag Cut-Off Switch)

Indicator showing that the passenger airbag

(SRS) is deactivated.

WARNING!

Activating/deactivating

If the car is equipped with a front

passenger airbag (SRS), but does not

have PACOS, the airbag will always be

activated.

The switch is located on the passenger end

of the dashboard and is accessible when the

passenger door is open. Check that the

switch is in the required position. Volvo

recommends that that the ignition key is used

to change position. (Other items with a shape

similar to a key can be used.)

PACOS (option)

The airbag (SRS) for the front passenger

seat can be deactivated. This is necessary if

a child seat is to be placed there.

Side airbags (SIPS)

WARNING!

• Work on the SIPS bag system can

cause malfunction and result in serious

personal injury. Always contact an

authorised Volvo workshop.

• Do not put objects in the area between

the outside of the seat and the door

panel, since this area is required by the

passenger airbag.

Side airbag locations.

Side airbags are a supplement to the SIPS

system. Always wear a seatbelt.

Side airbags – SIPS bags

WARNING!

A large proportion of the collision force is

transferred by the SIPS to the floor, roof,

beams, pillars, and other structural parts of

the body. The side airbags on the driver and

front passenger seats protect the chest area

and are an important part of the SIPS. The

SIPS bag system consists of two main parts:

The side airbags and the sensors. The side

airbags are located in the front seat

backrests.

Use only Volvo genuine car seat covers, or

seat covers approved by Volvo. Other

seat covers may impede the operation of

the side air bags.

Child seats and side airbags

The side airbag does not diminish the

protection provided by the car to children

seated in a child seat or on a booster

cushion.

WARNING!

Side airbags are a supplement to the

SIPS system. Always wear a seatbelt.

A child seat or booster cushion can be

placed on the front passenger seat provided

OM

Safety

Right-hand drive

Left-hand drive

SIPS bag system

The SIPS bag system consists of a gas

generator, side airbag and sensors. A suffi-

ciently violent collision trips the sensors and

ignites the gas generator, inflating the side

airbag. The airbag inflates between the

occupant and the door panel and thereby

cushions the initial impact while deflating.

The side airbag is only normally deployed on

the side of the collision.

Safety

Roll-Over Protection System

(ROPS)

Volvo’s Roll-Over Protection System has

been designed to reduce the risk of the car

overturning and to provide the best possible

protection in the event of an accident.

WARNING!

Under normal driving conditions, the RSC

system improves the car’s road safety, but

this should not be taken as a reason to

increase speed. Always follow the usual

precautions for safe driving.

The system consists of:

•

A stabiliser system, RSC (Roll Stability

Control) that minimises the risk of

overturning during sudden evasive

manoeuvres or the like or if the car skids.

Increased protection for the driver and

passengers through a reinforced body,

inflatable curtains and seatbelt tensioners

in all seats. See also page 21 and

page 23.

•

The RSC system uses a gyro sensor which

registers changes in the car’s lateral incli-

nation angle. This information is then used to

calculate the risk for overturning. If a risk is

detected, the DSTC system is engaged,

engine speed is reduced and one or more

wheels are braked until the car returns to a

stable position.

For more information on the DSTC system,

see page 41 and page 114.

Safety

Inflatable Curtain (IC)

Properties

WARNING!

The inflatable curtain is a supplement to

the seatbelts.

Always use a seatbelt.

WARNING!

The inflatable curtain is a supplement to the

SIPS system. It is concealed in the headlining

along both sides of the roof and protects

both front and rear seat passengers. The

inflatable curtain is activated by the SIPS

collision sensors if the car is hit from the side.

When deployed, the inflatable curtain

inflates. The inflatable curtain helps to

prevent the driver and passengers from

striking their heads on the inside of the car

during a collision.

• Never hang or fasten anything on the

roof handles. The hook is only intended

for light outer garments (not for hard

objects such as umbrellas).

• Do not screw or fit anything to the

headlining, door pillars or side panels.

This could compromise the intended

protection. Only use Volvo genuine parts

that are approved for placement in these

areas.

In the Volvo XC90, the inflatable curtains

have been developed to protect occupants in

the event of overturning. The inflatable curtain

also covers those travelling in the third row of

seats in the variant that seats seven.

OP

Safety

WHIPS

Protection against whiplash

injury – WHIPS

Properties of the seat

WHIPS system and child

seats/booster cushions

The WHIPS system does not diminish the

protection provided by the car to children

seated in a child seat or on a booster

cushion.

When the WHIPS system is deployed, the

front seat backrests fall backward to alter the

position of the driver and front seat

passenger. This diminishes the risk of

whiplash injury.

The whiplash protection system (WHIPS)

consists of energy absorbing backrests and

specially designed head restraints for the

front seats. The system is actuated by a rear-

end collision, where the angle and speed of

the collision, and the nature of the colliding

vehicle all have an influence.

WARNING!

Never modify or repair the seat or WHIPS

system yourself. Contact an authorised

Volvo workshop.

WARNING!

The WHIPS system is a supplement to the

seatbelts. Always wear your seatbelt.

OQ

Safety

Correct seating position

WARNING!

For the best possible protection, the driver

and front seat passenger should sit in the

centre of the seat with as little space as

possible between the head and the head

restraint.

• If a seat has been subjected to extreme

forces, such as due to a rear collision, the

WHIPS system must be checked by an

authorised Volvo workshop.

• Part of the WHIPS system’s protective

capacity may have been lost even if the

seats appear to be undamaged. Contact

an authorised Volvo workshop to have

the system checked even after a minor

rear-end collision.

You may place:

•

a child seat or booster cushion on the

front passenger seat, provided the

6

passenger airbag is not activated .

•

a rear-facing child seat in the rear seat

that uses the back of the front seat as

support.

WARNING!

If an integrated booster cushion has been

subjected to great stress, such as in a

collision, the entire booster cushion,

including the seatbelt and bolts, must be

replaced. Even if the integrated booster

cushion appears undamaged, it may not

afford the same level of protection.

The booster cushion should also be

replaced if it is worn or damaged. Note,

however, that the cushion should only be

replaced by a professional as it is vital for

passenger safety that the booster cushion

is properly installed. Therefore,

replacement and any repairs to the

cushion should be entrusted to an

authorised Volvo workshop.

If the cushion becomes dirty, try to clean it

in situ. If the upholstery is so dirty that it
