Safety
The vehicle is equipped with several safety sys- tems that work together to protect the vehicle'sdriver and passengers in the event of an acci-dent.
The car is equipped with a number of sensors that react in the event of an accident and activatedifferent safety systems, such as different typesof airbags and seatbelt tensioners. Depending onthe specific accident situation, such as collisionsat different angles, rollover or driving off the road,the systems react in different ways to provide thebest protection. There are also mechanical safety systems such as Whiplash Protection System. The car is alsoconstructed so that a large part of the force of acollision is distributed to beams, pillars, floor, roofand other parts of the body. The car's safety mode may be activated after a collision if an important function in the car hasbeen damaged.
Warning symbol in driver displayThe warning symbol is illuminated inthe driver display when the car's elec-trical system is set in ignition position II . The symbol is extinguished after
approx. 6 seconds if the car's safety system is fault-free.
WARNING
If the warning symbol remains illuminated or is switched on during driving and the mes- sage
SRS airbag Service urgent Drive to
workshop is shown in the driver display, it
means that part of one of the safety systems does not have full functionality. Volvo recom-mends that an authorised Volvo workshopshould be contacted as soon as possible.
If the specific warning symbol is broken then the general warning symbol is illu-minated instead and the driver displayshows the same message.

Safety during pregnancy It is important that the seatbelt is used correctly during pregnancy, and that pregnant driversadjust their seating position.
Seatbelt
The diagonal section should wrap over the shoul- der then be routed between the breasts and tothe side of the abdomen. The lap section should lay flat over the thighs and as low as possible under the abdomen. – It mustnever be allowed to ride upward. Remove theslack from the seatbelt and ensure that it fits asclose to the body as possible. In addition, checkthat there are no twists in the seatbelt.
Seating positionAs the pregnancy progresses, pregnant driversmust adjust the seat and steering wheel suchthat they can easily maintain control of the vehi-

headlamps *
If the active main beam has the on/off functional- ity25
then the lighting returns to main beam about
a second after the camera sensor no longer detects the headlamp beams from oncomingtraffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front. If the active main beam has adaptive functional- ity 25
then, unlike what happens during conven-
tional dimming, the light beam continues to illu- minate with main beam on both sides of oncom-ing traffic or vehicles ahead - only the part of thelight beam that points directly to the vehicle isdimmed.
Adaptive functionality: Dipped beam directly towards oncoming vehicle, but continued main beam on bothsides of the vehicle.
The lighting returns to full main beam about a second after the camera sensor no longerdetects the headlamp beams from oncomingtraffic or the rear lights from vehicles in front.
Activate/deactivate
The function can start while driving in the dark when the car's speed is approx. 20 km/h(12 mph) or higher. Activate/deactivate active main beam by turning the stalk switch's rotating ring to position
and release. If active main beam is deactivated while main beam is on, the lighting is immediatelyreset to dipped beam.
When active main beam is activated, the symbol
illuminates with a white glow in the driver
display. When main beam is activated, the symbol shines blue. This also applies for LED headlamps if themain beam is partially dimmed, i.e. if the lightbeam shines with slightly more than dippedbeam.

Manual operation
NOTE
Keep the windscreen surface in front of the camera sensor free from ice, snow, mist anddirt. Do not stick or attach anything to the wind- screen in front of the camera sensor as thismay reduce effectiveness or cause one ormore of the systems dependent on the cam-era to stop working.
If this symbol is shown in the driver dis- play, together with the message Active
High Beam Temporarily
unavailable, then switching between
main and dipped beam must be performed man- ually. The rotating ring on the stalk switch can still be in the
position. The symbol extin-
guishes when these message are shown.
The same applies if this symbol is shown together with the message
Windscreen sensor Sensor
blocked, see Owner's manual.
Active main beam may be temporarily unavailable e.g. in situations with dense fog or heavy rain.When active main beam becomes available again,or the windscreen sensors are no longer blocked, the message goes out and the
symbol illu-
minates.
WARNING
Active main beam is an aid for using the opti- mum beam pattern when conditions arefavourable. The driver always bears responsibility for man- ually switching between main and dippedbeam when traffic situations or weather con-ditions so require.
IMPORTANT
Examples of when manual switching between main and dipped beam may be required:
• In heavy rain or dense fog
• In freezing rain
• In snow flurries or slush
• In moonlight
• When driving in poorly lit built-up areas
• When the traffic ahead has weak lighting
• If there are pedestrians on or beside theroad
• If there are highly reflective objects suchas signs in the vicinity of the road
• When the lighting from oncoming trafficis obscured by e.g. a crash barrier
• When there is traffic on connecting roads
• On the brow of a hill or in a hollow
• In sharp bends.

Replacing the dipped beam bulb
The dipped beam bulb in halogen headlamps can be replaced by the driver.
Before the bulb can be replaced, the plastic cover over the headlamp must be removed; seethe section "Bulb replacement".
IMPORTANT
Never touch the glass part of the bulbs with your fingers. Grease from your fingers isvaporised by the heat, coating the reflectorand then causing damage.

1. Detach the headlamp's rubber cover for the dipped beam bulb.
