Rollover Protection System (ROPS)
Volvo's Roll-Over Protection System (ROPS) utilizes the Roll Stability Control (RSC) func-tion and has been designed to help minimizethe risk of a rollover in emergency maneuversor if a skid should occur. RSC uses a gyroscopic sensor that registers the amount of change in the lateral angle atwhich the vehicle is leaning. Using this infor-mation, RSC calculates the likelihood of arollover. If there is an imminent risk of a roll-over, the stability system is activated, powerto the engine is cut and the brakes areapplied to one or more of the wheels until thevehicle regains stability.
WARNING
The vehicle’s stability systems, including ROPS and RSC, do not replace thedriver’s responsibility for operating thevehicle in a safe manner. Speed and driv-ing style should always be adapted to thecurrent road, traffic and weather condi-tions. Posted speed limits should alwaysbe respected.
Crash mode – general information
After a collision, the functionality of some of the vehicle's systems may be reduced as asafety precaution.
Warning symbol: analog instrument panel
Warning symbol: digital instrument panel* If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, the text
Safety mode See manual may
appear in the information display.
NOTE
This text can only be shown if the display is undamaged and the vehicle's electricalsystem is intact.
Crash mode is a feature that is triggered if one or more of the safety systems (e.g.front (p. 32) or side airbags (p. 39), an inflat-able curtain (p. 41), or one or more of the seatbelt pretensioners) has deployed. The colli-sion may have damaged an important func-tion in the vehicle, such as the fuel lines, sen-sors for one of the safety systems, the brakesystem, etc.

WARNING
•Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in thefront passenger's seat. We also rec-ommend that children under 4 feet7 inches (140 cm) in height who haveoutgrown these devices sit in the rearseat with the seat belt fastened.
• On hot days, the temperature in thevehicle interior can rise very quickly.Exposure to these high temperaturesfor even a short period of time cancause heat-related injury or death.Small children are particularly at risk.
Child seat should always be registered. See Child restraints (p. 47) for more information.
Volvo's recommendationsWhy does Volvo believe that no child shouldsit in the front seat of a car? It's quite simplereally. A front airbag (p. 32) is a very powerfuldevice designed, by law, to help protect anadult. Because of the size of the airbag and its speed of inflation, a child should never beplaced in the front seat, even if he or she isproperly belted or strapped into a child safetyseat. Volvo has been an innovator in safetyfor over seventy-five years, and we'll continueto do our part. But we need your help. Pleaseremember to put your children in the backseat, and buckle them up.
Volvo has some very specific recommendations:
•
Always wear your seat belt (p. 28).
• Airbags are a SUPPLEMENTAL safety device which, when used with a three-point seat belt can help reduce seriousinjuries during certain types of accidents.Volvo recommends that you do not dis-connect the airbag system in your vehi-cle.
• Volvo strongly recommends that every-one in the vehicle be properly restrained.
• Volvo recommends that ALL occupants(adults and children) shorter than 4 feet7 inches (140 cm) be seated in the backseat of any vehicle with a front passengerside airbag.
• Drive safely!

Infant seat
There are three main types of child restraint systems: infant seats (p. 49), convertibleseats (p. 51), and booster cush-ions (p. 54). They are classified according tothe child's age and size. The following section provides general infor-
mation on securing a child restraint using a
three-point seat belt (p. 28). Refer to ISOFIX/ LATCH lower anchors (p. 55) and Top tetheranchors (p. 56) for information on securinga child restraint using ISOFIX/LATCH loweranchors and/or top tether anchorages.

Convertible seat
WARNING
A child seat should never be used in the front passenger seat of any vehicle with afront passenger airbag – not even if the"Passenger airbag off" symbol near therear-view mirror is illuminated (on vehiclesequipped with Occupant Weight Sensor). Ifthe severity of an accident were to causethe airbag to inflate, this could lead to seri-ous injury or death to a child seated in thisposition.
G023269
Booster cushion
WARNING
Always refer to the child restraint manufac- turer's instructions for detailed informationon securing the restraint.
WARNING
•When not in use, keep the child restraint system secured or remove itfrom the passenger compartment tohelp prevent it from injuring passen-gers in the event of a sudden stop orcollision.
• A small child's head represents a con-siderable part of its total weight and itsneck is still very weak. Volvo recom-mends that children up to age 4 travel,properly restrained, facing rearward. Inaddition, Volvo recommends that chil-dren should ride rearward facing,properly restrained, as long as possi-ble.
Automatic Locking Retractor/ Emergency Locking Retractor (ALR/ELR)
To make child seat installation easier, each seat belt (except for the driver's belt) is equip-ped with a locking mechanism to help keepthe seat belt taut.

Eco Guide* and Power Meter*
Eco guide and Power guide are two gauges in the instrument panel that help improve drivingeconomy. The vehicle also stores driving-related statis- tics in the form of a bar graph, see Trip com-puter – Trip statistics (p. 123).
Introduction
To display or remove these functions from theinstrument panel, select the "Eco" theme (seeInformation displays – introduction (p. 68)). Driving statistics are also stored and can be displayed in the form of a bar chart (see Tripcomputer – Trip statistics (p. 123)).
Eco GuideThis gauge gives an indication of how eco-nomically the vehicle is being driven.
Current (instantaneous) reading
Average
Current (instantaneous) readingThis is the current level of economical driving; the higher the reading, the more economicallythe vehicle is being driven. This value is calculated based on the vehi- cle's speed, engine speed (rpm), engine loadand brake use. The optimal speed range is between approxi- mately 30–50 mph (50–80 km/h), preferably atas low rpm as possible. The markers fallwhen the brake or accelerator pedal ispressed. If the current reading is very low, the red field in the gauge will illuminate after a slight delay,indicating low driving economy.
AverageThe average reading changes gradually according to changes in the current readingto indicate how economically the vehicle hasbeen driven recently. The higher the averagereading, the more economically the vehiclehas been driven.
Power MeterThis gauge indicates the engine power thathas been utilized and the amount of powerremaining.
