Chapter 1 - Safety
pg. 1 Safety
Not wearing a seat belt is like believing "It'll never happen to me!" Volvo, the inventor of the three-point seat belt,
urges you and all adult occupants of your car to wear seat belts and ensure that children are properly restrained, using
an infant, car or booster seat determined by age, weight and height. Volvo also believes no child should sit in the front
seat of a car.
Fact: In every state and province, some type of child-restraint legislation has been passed. Additionally, most states
and provinces have already made it mandatory for occupants of a car to use seat belts.
So, urging you to "buckle up" is not just our recommendation - legislation in your state or province may mandate seat
belt usage. The few seconds it takes to buckle up may one day allow you to say, "It's a good thing I was wearing my
seat belt."

Always fasten the seat belts before you drive or ride. A chime will sound several times if the driver's seat belt is
not fastened.
To buckle:
Pull the belt out far enough to insert the latch plate into the receptacle until a distinct click is heard. The seat belt
retractor is normally "unlocked" and you can move freely, provided that the shoulder belt is not pulled out too far. The
retractor will lock up as follows:
if the belt is pulled out rapidly
during braking and acceleration
if the vehicle is leaning excessively
when driving in turns
For the seat belt to provide maximum protection in the event of an accident, it must be worn correctly. When wearing
the seat belt remember:
The belt should not be twisted or turned.
The lap belt must be positioned low on the hips (not pressing against the abdomen).
Make sure that the shoulder belt is rolled up into its retractor and that the shoulder and lap belts are taut.
Before exiting the car, check that the seat belt retracts fully after being unbuckled. If necessary, guide the belt back
into the retractor slot.
NOTE: Legislation in your state or province may mandate seat belt usage.
Adjusting shoulder belt
Lap portion of the belt should sit low
Child seats: Please refer to page 14
for information on securing child seats with the seat belts.

A Front edge of seat (raise/lower)
B Forward - rearward
C Rear edge of seat (raise/lower)
D Backrest tiltWARNING!
Because the driver's seat can be adjusted with the ignition off, children should never be left unattended in the car.
Movement of the seat can be STOPPED at any time by pressing any button on the power seat control panel.
Do not adjust the seat while driving. The seat should be adjusted so that the brake pedal can be depressed fully. In
addition, position the seat as far rearward as comfort and control allow.
The seat rails on the floor must not be obstructed in any way when the seat is in motion.
Programming the memory
Three seat positions can be programmed. To program a seat position:
1 Adjust the seat to the desired position.
2 Hold down the MEM button.
3 While holding down the MEM button, press button 1 to program the current position of the seat.
Buttons 2 and 3 can be programmed in the same way. To move the seat to a programmed position, press and hold
down button 1, 2 or 3 until the seat moves to the preset position and stops.
As a safety precaution, the seat will stop automatically if the button is released before the seat has reached the
programmed position.
NOTE: The seat has an overload protector which engages if an object blocks the movement of the seat. If this
happens, remove the object and wait 20 seconds before operating the seat again.
* This option is only available on the driver's seat.

Two keys are provided with your car; a master key and a service key. The master key, the remote control, and the
central locking button may all be used to lock and unlock all of your car's locks.
The service key will operate only the driver's door and the ignition switch. It is intended to help deter unwanted entry
into the glove compartment and trunk.
Turn the key once to unlock the driver's door and the fuel filler door.
Turn the key again (within 10 seconds) to unlock all doors and the tailgate. One turn with the key towards lock in
the drivers door locks all doors and tailgate.

Use the switch on the front door armrests to lock/unlock the car from the inside.WARNING!
If the doors are locked while driving, this may hinder rapid access to the occupants of the car in the event of an
accident. (Also see information on "Child safety locks").
NOTE: To help prevent accidentally locking the keys in the car, the central locking system is designed to unlock the
doors immediately if the key is left in the ignition switch, the car is locked using the lock button on the door and the
door is then closed. A sound from the lock will be audible at this time.
Please note that this function will not unlock the doors if the engine is running.
Immobilizer (start inhibitor)
Each of the keys supplied with your car contains a coded transmitter. The code in the key is transmitted to an antenna
in the ignition switch where it is compared to the code stored in the start inhibitor module. The car will start only with
a properly coded key. If you misplace a key, take the other keys to an authorized Volvo retailer for reprogramming as
an antitheft measure.
*This key operates only driver's door and ignition switch/steering wheel lock.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following condition: (1) This device
may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
Exterior courtesy lights
Home Safe System
When you leave your car at night, you can make use of the courtesy lighting function:
Remove the key from the ignition switch.
Pull the direction indicator lever towards the steering wheel (as when activating the high beams).
Exit the car and lock the doors.
The headlights, parking lights, license plate lights and the lights in the sideview mirrors will now come on and remain
on for 30, 60 or 90 seconds (the time interval is at your discretion and can be changed by an authorized Volvo retailer).
Approach lighting
When approaching the car at night, press the yellow button in the central locking remote control (see illustration on
page 77
). This lights up the interior courtesy light, parking lights, license plate lights and the lights in the sideview
mirrors.

Temporarily turning off the alarm sensor(s) - accessory
This button will only be found in cars equipped with the optional inclination and/or movement sensors.
In certain situations it may be desirable to turn off the optional inclination and movement alarm sensors if, for
example, you drive your car onto a ferry where the rocking of the boat could trigger the alarm or if a pet is left in the
car with the doors locked.
To temporarily turn off the inclination and movement alarm sensors from the alarm system:
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.
NOTE: The optional sensors are automatically reconnected to the alarm system the next time the car is unlocked and
then locked again.
LED alarm status signals
The status of the alarm system is indicated by the red LED at the top of the dash:
LED off - the alarm is not armed
LED flashes once per second - the alarm is armed
LED flashes rapidly before the ignition is switched on - the alarm has been triggered
Fault in the alarm system: If a fault has been detected in the alarm system, a message will be displayed in the text
window. Contact a Volvo retailer.
Automatic re-lock/re-arm system
If the car is unlocked with the remote, the car will re-lock and the alarm will re-arm after 2 minutes unless a door or
the tailgate has been opened.
* The position of this button may vary, depending on the specifications of your car.
