WARNING!
- No objects that add to the total weight on the seat should be placed on the front passenger's seat. If a child is seated
in the front passenger's seat with any additional weight, this extra weight could cause the OWS system to enable the
airbag, which might cause it to deploy in the event of a collision, thereby injuring the child.
- The seat belt should never be wrapped around an object on the front passenger's seat. This could interfere with the
OWS system's function.
- The front passenger's seat belt should never be used in a way that exerts more pressure on the passenger than
normal. This could increase the pressure exerted on the weight sensor by a child, and could result in the airbag being
enabled, which might cause it to deploy in the event of a collision, thereby injuring the child.
WARNING!
- Never try to open, remove, or repair any components in the OWS system. This could result in system malfunction.
Maintenance or repairs should only be carried out by an authorized Volvo service technician.
- The front passenger's seat should not be modified in any way. This could reduce pressure on the seat cushion,
which might interfere with the OWS system's function.
pg. 11 Safety
WARNING!
Keep the following points in mind with respect to the OWS system. Failure to follow these instructions could
adversely affect the systemÕs function and result in serious injury to the occupant of the front passengerÕs seat:
- The full weight of the front seat passenger should always be on the seat cushion. The passenger should never lift
him/herself off the seat cushion using the armrest in the door or the center console, by pressing the feet on the floor,
by sitting on the edge of the seat cushion, or by pressing against the backrest in a way that reduces pressure on the
seat cushion. This could cause OWS to disable the front passengerÕs side airbag.
- Do not place any type of object on the front passenger's seat in such a way that jamming, pressing, or squeezing
occurs between the object and the front seat, other than as a direct result of the correct use of the ALR/ ELR seat
belt (see page 20
).
- No objects should be placed under the front passengerÕs seat. This could interfere with the OWS systemÕs
function.

From the time the ignition key is turned from the Drive position (position II) until you lock the car, you can press the
button in the center console. The LED in the switch will light up and a message will be displayed in the text window
to indicate that the sensors are disconnected.
The car can then be locked in the usual way to set the alarm.
