Driver/passenger-side airbagsAs a supplement to the seat belts, the vehicle is equipped with driver and passenger side frontairbags.
Driver/passenger side front airbags.
In a frontal collision, the airbags help protect the driver's and passenger's head, face and chestand the driver's knees and legs. A collision of a sufficiently violent force will trig- ger the sensors and one or more airbags willinflate. The airbag helps cushion the initial impactof the collision for the passenger. The airbagdeflates when compressed by the collision. Asmall amount of powder will also be releasedfrom the airbag. This may appear to be smokeand is normal. The entire process, from inflationto deflation of the airbag, occurs within tenths ofa second.
NOTE
The sensors react differently depending on the circumstances of the accident andwhether or not the seat belt is used. Does notapply to all belt positions. In some accident situations, only one (or none) of the airbags will be deployed. Thesensors monitor the impact of the collisionand react accordingly to deploy one, severalor no airbags.
WARNING
The seat belt and the airbag work together. If the seat belt is not used or is used incorrectly,the airbag may not provide the intended pro-tection in a collision. To help prevent injury in the event the airbag is deployed, passengers should sit as uprightas possible, with their feet on the floor andtheir backs against the seat backrest.
WARNING
Volvo recommends contacting an authorized Volvo workshop for repairs. Incorrectly per-formed repairs to the airbag system couldimpair function and lead to serious injury.
The front airbag systemThe front airbag system includes gas generators surrounded by the airbags, and deceleration sen- sors that activate the gas generators, causing theairbags to be inflated with nitrogen gas. As the movement of the seats' occupants com- presses the airbags, some of the gas is expelledat a controlled rate to provide better cushioning.Both seat belt tensioners also deploy, minimizingseat belt slack. The entire process, from inflationto deflation of the airbag, occurs within tenths ofa second. The location of the front airbags is indicated by SRS AIRBAG
embossed on the steering wheel
pad and above the glove compartment, and by decals on both sun visors and on the front andfar right side of the dash. The driver's side front airbag is folded and
located in the steering wheel hub.The knee airbag is folded on the underside of
the dashboard on the driver's side. The text AIRBAG is embossed on the panel.
The passenger's side front airbag is folded
behind a panel located above the glove compart- ment.

WARNING
•No objects or accessory equipment, e.g. dashboard covers, may be placed on,attached to, or installed near the air bagcover (the area above the glove compart-ment) or the area affected by airbagdeployment.
• There should be no loose articles, suchas coffee cups on the floor, seat, or dash-board area.
• Never try to open the airbag cover on thesteering wheel or the passenger's sidedashboard. This should only be done by atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian.
• Failure to follow these instructions canresult in injury to the vehicle's occupants.

Occupant weight sensor
The Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) is designed to meet the regulatory requirements ofFederal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS)208 and is designed to disable (will not inflate)the passenger's side front airbag under certainconditions.
Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS) indicator light
Disabling the passenger's side front airbag
Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and children) shorter than 140 cm (4 feet7 inches) be seated in the back seat of any vehi-cle with a front passenger side airbag and beproperly restrained for their size and weight. The OWS works with sensors that are part of the front passenger's seat and seat belt. The sensors are designed to detect the presence of a properly seated occupant and determine if the passeng- er's side front airbag should be enabled (mayinflate) or disabled (will not inflate). The OWS will disable (will not inflate) the pas- senger's side front airbag when:
• the front passenger's seat is unoccupied, orhas small/medium objects in the front seat,
• the system determines that an infant is pres-ent in a rear-facing infant seat that is instal-led according to the manufacturer's instruc-tions,
• the system determines that a small child ispresent in a forward-facing child restraintthat is installed according to the manufactur-er's instructions,
• the system determines that a small child ispresent in a booster seat,
• a front passenger takes his/her weight off ofthe seat for a period of time,
• a child or a small person occupies the frontpassenger's seat.
The OWS uses a PASSENGER AIRBAG OFFindicator lamp which will illuminate and stay on toremind you that the passenger's side front airbagis disabled. The PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indi-cator lamp is located in the overhead console,near the base of the rearview mirror.

The climate system has a number of sensors to help regulate the climate settings in the vehicle.
Location of the sensors
Humidity sensor - in the rearview mirror con- sole.
Ambient temperature sensor - in the right- side door mirror.
Sunlight sensors - on the upper side of the dashboard.
Passenger compartment temperature sensor - near the buttons in the center console.
NOTE
Do not cover or block the sensors with cloth- ing or other objects.
On vehicles equipped with the Interior Air Quality System *, there is also an air quality sensor in the
climate system's air intake.

• Interior Air Quality System
* (p. 206)
Perceived temperature
The climate control system regulates the climate in the passenger compartment based on per-ceived temperature, not actual temperature.
The selected passenger compartment tempera- ture is based on the physical perception of thecurrent ambient temperature, airflow speed,humidity, sunlight in the passenger compartment,etc. The system has a sunlight sensor that detects which side of the vehicle the sunlight is shiningon and adjusts the temperature accordingly. Thismeans that the temperature of the air coming outof the vents may be different for the left and rightsides, even if the temperature setting is the samefor both sides.
