WARNING! If a fault in the system is detected and indicated as explained above, \
be aware that
the passenger's side front airbag will not deploy in the event of a coll\
ision. In this case, the safety
systems and Occupant Weight Sensor should be inspected by an authorized \
Volvo retailer as soon as
possible.
pg. 8 Safety
WARNING!
Never try to open, remove, or repair any components in the OWS system. T\
his could result in system
malfunction. Maintenance or repairs should only be carried out by an aut\
horized Volvo service
technician.
WARNING!
Keep the following points in mind with respect to the OWS system. Failur\
e to follow these
instructions could adversely affect the system's function and result in \
serious injury to the occupant of
the front passenger's seat:
The full weight of the front seat passenger should always be on the seat\
cushion. The passenger
should never lift him/herself off the seat cushion using the armrest in \
the door or the center console,
by pressing the feet on the floor, by sitting on the edge of the seat cu\
shion, or by pressing against the
backrest in a way that reduces pressure on the seat cushion. This could \
cause OWS to disable the
front, passenger's side airbag.
The front passenger's seat should not be modified in any way. This could\
reduce pressure on the seat
cushion, which might interfere with the OWS system's function.
Do not place any type of object on the front passenger's seat in such a \
way that jamming, pressing, or
squeezing occurs between the object and the front seat, other than as a \
direct result of the correct use
of the ALR/ELR seat belt (see
page 22).
No objects should be placed under the front passenger's seat. This could\
interfere with the OWS
system's function.
