Location of the side impact (SIPS) airbag

•The SIPS airbag system is a supplement
to the structural Side Impact Protection
System and the three-point seat belt
system. It is not designed to deploy during
collisions from the front or rear of the car
or in rollover situations.
•The use of seat covers on the front seats
may impede SIPS airbag deployment.
•No objects, accessory equipment or
stickers may be placed on, attached to or
installed near the SIPS airbag system or in
the area affected by SIPS airbag deploy-
ment.
•Never try to open or repair any compo-
nents of the SIPS airbag system. This
should be done only by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician.
•In order for the SIPS airbag to provide its
best protection, both front seat occupants
should sit in an upright position with the
seat belt properly fastened.
•Failure to follow these instructions can
result in injury to the occupants of the
vehicle in the event of an accident.

Volvo Inflatable Curtain (VIC)
WARNING!
•The VIC system is a supplement to the Side Impact Protection
System. It is not designed to deploy during collisions from the front
or rear of the car or in rollover situations.
•Never try to open or repair any components of the VIC system.
This should be done only by a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
•In order for the VIC to provide its best protection, both front seat
occupants and both outboard rear seat occupants should sit in an
upright position with the seat belt properly fastened; adults using
the seat belt and children using the proper child restraint system.
Only adults should sit in the front seats. Children must never be
allowed in the front passenger seat. See page 21 for guidelines.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury to the
vehicle occupants in an accident.
Volvo Inflatable Curtain (VIC)
This system consists of inflatable curtains located along the sides of the
roof liners, stretching from the center of both front side windows to the
rear edge of the rear side door windows. It is designed to help protect the
heads of the occupants of the front seats and the occupant of the
outboard rear seating positions in certain side impact collisions.

WARNING!
•The WHIPS system is designed to supplement the other safety
systems in your car. For this system to function properly, the three-
point seat belt must be worn. Please be aware that no system can
prevent all possible injuries that may occur in an accident.
•The WHIPS system is designed to function in certain collisions
from the rear, depending on the crash severity, angle and speed.
•Occupants in the front seats must never sit out of position. The
occupant's back must be as upright as comfort allows and be
against the seat back with the seat belt properly fastened.

WARNING!
•Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in
the front passenger’s seat. We also recommend that children under 4
feet 7 inches (140 cm) in height who have outgrown these devices
sit in the rear seat with the seat belt fastened.
•On hot days, the temperature in the vehicle interior can rise very
quickly. Exposure to these high temperatures for even a short period
of time can cause heat-related injury or death. Small children are
particularly at risk.

WARNING!
•
DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY
can occur
•Follow all instructions on the
booster cushion and in the vehi-
cle's owner's manual.
•MAKE SURE THE BOOSTER
CUSHION IS SECURELY
LOCKED BEFORE THE CHILD
IS SEATED.
•Use this booster cushion only with
children who weigh between 33
and 80 lbs (15 and 36 kg) and
whose height is between 38 and 54
in (97 and 137 cm).
•In the event of a collision while the
integrated booster cushion was occupied,
the entire booster cushion and seat belt
must be replaced. The booster cushion
should also be replaced if it is badly worn
or damaged in any way. This work should
be performed by an authorized Volvo
retailer only.

•Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used for adult
seat belts or harnesses. The anchorages are
not able to withstand excessive forces on
them in the event of collision if full
harness seat belts or adult seat belts are
installed to them. An adult who uses a belt
anchored in a child restraint anchorage
runs a great risk of suffering severe
injuries should a collision occur.
•Do not install rear speakers that require
the removal of the top tether anchors or
interfere with the proper use of the top
tether strap.
•Top tether straps should be routed beneath
the head restraints.
ISOFIX/LATCH 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's
installation instructions, and use both ISOFIX
lower anchors and top tethers whenever
possible.

•For safety reasons, the center section of
the backrest or seat cushion should not be
left in the car after they have been
removed.
•Please be aware that with the center
section of the backrest removed, unan-
chored objects in the rear cargo area could
be thrown forward between the outboard
sections of the backrest in the event of a
sudden stop.
•When the center section of the backrest is
put back in place, the right-hand section of
the backrest must be in the upright
position in order to lock the center section
securely in place and to be able to use the
center seat belt. $

•Under no circumstances should gasoline, naphtha or similar
cleaning agents be used on the plastic or the leather since these can
cause damage.
•Take extra care when removing stains such as ink or lipstick since
the coloring can spread.
•Use solvents sparingly. Too much solvent can damage the seat
padding.
•Start from the outside of the stain and work toward the center.
•Sharp objects (e.g. pencils or pens in a pocket) or velcro fasteners
on clothing may damage the textile upholstery.
