service reset VOLVO C70 2008 Owners Manual

The ROPS system consists of two roll bars located behind the rear seat head restraints, and a sensor that monitors the
roll or pitch angle of the vehicle.
If the vehicle rolls or pitches beyond a preset angle, or in the event of a rear-end collision of sufficient force, the roll
bars are automatically deployed (raised).
The ROPS system is designed to function regardless of whether the power retractable hard top is up or down. By
design, the tops of the roll bars are equipped with a point in order to pierce the rear window if the top is up.
NOTE
If ROPS has deployed, the system should be inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
WARNING
The rear seat of the Volvo C70 is intended for two occupants, and only two rear seat belts are provided. The center
section of the seat should never be used to seat a passenger.
No objects should be placed over the roll bars or behind the rear seat head restraints.
All repairs or maintenance to the ROPS system should only be performed by a trained Volvo service technician.
29 01 Safety
Crash mode
Driving after a collision
If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, the text CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL may appear in the information
display. This indicates that the vehicle's functionality has been reduced.

NOTE
This text can only be shown if the display is undamaged and the vehicle's electrical system is intact.
CRASH MODE is a feature that is triggered if one or more of the safety systems (for example, front or side airbags,
an inflatable curtain, or one or more of the seat belt pretensioners) has deployed. The collision may have damaged an
important function in the vehicle, such as the fuel lines, sensors for one of the safety systems, the brake system, etc.
WARNING
Never attempt to repair the vehicle yourself or to reset the electrical system after the vehicle has displayed
CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL. This could result in injury or improper system function.
Restoring the vehicle to normal operating mode should only be done by a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
After CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL has been displayed, if you detect the odor of fuel vapor, or see any signs of
fuel leakage, do not attempt to start the vehicle. Leave the vehicle immediately.
Attempting to start the vehicle
If damage to the vehicle is minor and there is no fuel leakage, you may attempt to start the vehicle. To do so:
1. Remove the ignition key.
2. Reinsert the key in the ignition switch. The vehicle will then attempt to reset CRASH MODE to normal mode.
3. Try to start the vehicle.
Moving the vehicle
If the electrical system is able to reset system status to normal (CRASH MODE SEE MANUAL will no longer be
displayed), the vehicle may be moved carefully from its present position, if for example, it is blocking traffic. It
should, however, not be moved farther than is absolutely necessary.
WARNING
Even if the vehicle appears to be drivable after CRASH MODE has been set, it should not be driven or towed
(pulled by another vehicle). There may be concealed damage that could make it difficult or impossible to control.
The vehicle should be transported on a flatbed tow truck to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for
inspection/repairs.

Child safety
Children should be seated safely
Volvo recommends the proper use of restraint systems for all occupants including children. Remember that, regardless
of age and size, a child should always be properly restrained in a car.
Your car is also equipped with ISOFIX/LATCH attachments, which make it more convenient to install child seats.
Some restraint systems for children are designed to be secured in the vehicle by lap belts or the lap portion of a lap-
shoulder belt. Such child restraint systems can help protect children in cars in the event of an accident only if they are
