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
vehicle.
Your vehicle is also equipped with ISOFIX/
LATCH attachments, which make it more con-
venient 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 vehicles in the event of an accident
only if they are used properly. However, chil-
dren could be endangered in a crash if the child
restraints are not properly secured in the vehi-
cle. Failure to follow the installation instructions
for your child restraint can result in your child
striking the vehicle\fs interior in a sudden stop.
Holding a child in your arms is NOT a suitable
substitute for a child restraint system. In an
accident, a child held in a person\fs arms can
be crushed between the vehicle\fs interior and
an unrestrained person. The child could also be
injured by striking the interior, or by being ejec-
ted from the vehicle during a sudden maneuver
or impact. The same can also happen if the
infant or child rides unrestrained on the seat.
Other occupants should also be properly
restrained to help reduce the chance of injuring
or increasing the injury of a child.
All states and provinces have legislation gov-
erning how and where children should be car-
ried in a vehicle. Find out the regulations exist-
ing in your state or province. Recent accident
statistics have shown that children are safer in
rear seating positions than front seating posi-
tions when properly restrained. A child restraint
system can help protect a child in a vehicle.
Here\fs what to look for when selecting a child
restraint system:
It should have a label certifying that it meets
applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards (FMVSS 213) – or in Canada,
CMVSS 213.
Make sure the child restraint system is
approved for the child\fs height, weight and
development – the label required by the stand-
ard or regulation, or instructions for infant
restraints, typically provide this information.
In using any child restraint system, we urge you
to carefully look over the instructions that are
provided with the restraint. Be sure you under-
stand them and can use the device properly
and safely in this vehicle. A misused child
restraint system can result in increased injuries
for both the infant or child and other occupants
in the vehicle.
When a child has outgrown the child safety
seat, you should use the rear seat with the
standard seat belt fastened. The best way to
help protect the child here is to place the child
on a cushion so that the seat belt is properly
located on the hips (see the illustration

on page
35). Legislation in your state or province may
mandate the use of a child seat or cushion in
combination with the seat belt, depending on
the child\fs age and/or size. Please check local
regulations.
A specially designed and tested booster cush-
ion can be obtained from your Volvo retailer.
USA: for children weighing 33 – 80 lbs.
(15 – 36 kg) and 38 – 54 inches (97 – 137 cm)
in height
Canada: for children weighing 40 – 80 lbs.
(18 – 36 kg) and 40 – 54 inches (102 – 137 cm)
in height

Child restraints
Infant seat
There are three main types of child restraint
systems: infant seats, convertible seats, and
booster cushions. They are classified accord-
ing to the child\fs age and size.
The following section provides
general infor-
mation on securing a child restraint using a
three-point seat belt. Refer to pages 42 and
43 for information on securing a child restraint
using ISOFIX lower anchors and/or top tether
anchorages. Convertible seat
WARNING
A child seat should never be used in the
front passenger seat of any vehicle with a
front passenger airbag – not even if the
"Passenger airbag off" symbol near the
rear-view mirror is illuminated (on vehicles
equipped with Occupant Weight Sensor). If
the severity of an accident were to cause the
airbag to inflate, this could lead to serious
injury or death to a child seated in this posi-
tion. Booster cushionWARNING
Always refer to the child restraint manufac-
turer\fs instructions for detailed information
on securing the restraint. G022840 G022847 G023269

Securing an infant seat with a seat belt
Do not place the infant seat in the front passeng-
er's seat
NOTE
Refer to pages 42 and 43 for information
on securing a child restraint using ISOFIX
lower anchors and/or top tether ancho-
rages.
1.
Place the infant seat in the rear seat of the
vehicle.
2. Attach the seat belt to the infant seat according to the manufacturer\fs instruc-
tions. Positioning the seat belt through the infant seat
WARNING
\b
An infant seat must be in the rear-facing
position only.
\b The infant seat should not be positioned
behind the driver\fs seat unless there is
adequate space for safe installation.
WARNING A child seat should never be used in the
front passenger seat of any vehicle with a
front passenger airbag – not even if the
"Passenger airbag off" symbol near the
rear-view mirror is illuminated (on vehicles
equipped with Occupant Weight Sensor). If
the severity of an accident were to cause the
airbag to inflate, this could lead to serious
injury or death to a child seated in this posi-
tion.
3. Fasten the seat belt by inserting the latch
plate into the buckle (lock) until a distinct
click is audible. Fasten the seat belt G022844 G023270 G023271

39
Securing a convertible seat with a seat
belt
Do not place the convertible seat in the front pas-
senger's seat
NOTE
Refer to pages 42 and 43 for information
on securing a child restraint using ISOFIX
lower anchors and/or top tether ancho-
rages.
Convertible seats can be used in either a for-
ward or rearward-facing position, depending
on the age and size of the child. Route the seat belt through the convertible seat
WARNING
Always use a convertible seat that is suita-
ble for the child\fs age and size. See the con-
vertible seat manufacturer\fs recommenda-
tions.
1. Place the convertible seat in the rear seat
of the vehicle.
WARNING \b
A small child\fs head represents a con-
siderable part of its total weight and its
neck is still very weak. Volvo recom-
mends that children up to age 4 travel,
properly restrained, facing rearward. In
addition, Volvo recommends that chil-
dren should ride rearward facing, prop-
erly restrained, as long as possible.
\b Convertible child seats should be instal-
led in the rear seat only.
\b A rear-facing convertible seat should not
be positioned behind the driver\fs seat
unless there is adequate space for safe
installation. 2. Attach the seat belt to the convertible seat
according to the manufacturer\fs instruc-
tions. G018630 G022847

01 SafetyISOFIX lower anchors 01
42 Using the ISOFIX lower child seat
anchors
ISOFIX lower child restraint anchors
Lower anchors for ISOFIX-equipped child
seats are located in the rear, outboard seats,
hidden below the backrest cushions. Symbols
on the seat back upholstery mark the anchor
positions as shown. To access the anchors,
kneel on the seat cushion and locate the
anchors by feel. Always follow your child seat
manufacturer\fs installation instructions, and
use both ISOFIX lower anchors and top tethers
whenever possible.
To access the anchors1. Put the child restraint in position. 2. Kneel on the child restraint to press down
the seat cushion and locate the anchors by
feel.
3. Fasten the attachment on the child restraint\fs lower straps to the ISOFIX lower
anchors.
4. Firmly tension the lower child seat straps according to the manufacturer\fs instruc-
tions.
NOTE \b
The rear seat\fs center position is not
equipped with ISOFIX lower anchors.
When installing a child restraint in this
position, attach the restraint\fs top tether
strap (if it is so equipped) to the top
tether anchorage point and secure the
restraint with the vehicle\fs center seat
belt.
\b Always follow your child seat manufac-
turer\fs installation instructions, and use
both ISOFIX lower anchors and top
tethers whenever possible. Fasten the attachment correctly to the ISOFIX
lower anchors
WARNING
\b
Be sure to fasten the attachment cor-
rectly to the anchor (see the illustration).
If the attachment is not correctly fas-
tened, the child restraint may not be
properly secured in the event of a colli-
sion.
\b The ISOFIX lower child restraint
anchors are only intended for use with
child seats positioned in the outboard
seating positions. These anchors are
not certified for use with any child
restraint that is positioned in the center
seating position. When securing a child
restraint in the center seating position,
use only the vehicle\fs center seat belt. G021064
