Volvo Structural Parts Statement
Volvo is one of the leading companies for carsafety.
Volvo engineers and manufactures vehiclesdesigned to help protect vehicle occupants in theevent of a collision.
Volvos are designed to absorb the impact of acollision. This energy absorption system including,but not limited to, structural components such asbumper reinforcement bars, bumper energyabsorbers, frames, rails, fender aprons, A-pillars,B-pillars and body panels must work together tomaintain cabin integrity and protect the vehicleoccupants.
The supplemental restraint system including butnot limited to air bags, side curtain air bags, anddeployment sensors work together with theabove components to provide proper timing forair bag deployment.
Due to the above, Volvo Car USA does not sup-port the use of aftermarket, alternative or any-thing other than original Volvo parts for collisionrepair.
Volvo Car USA also recommends using Volvo-approved replacement glass. The use of after-market glass, particularly a windshield, can havean adverse effect on collision avoidance andadvanced lighting systems.
In addition Volvo does not support the use or re-use of structural components from an existingvehicle that has been previously damaged.Although these parts may appear equivalent, it isdifficult to tell if the parts have been previouslyreplaced with non-OE parts or if the part hasbeen damaged as a result of a prior collision. Thequality of these used parts may also have beenaffected due to environmental exposure.

Safety
The vehicle is equipped with a number of safetysystems that work together to help protect thevehicle's driver and passengers in the event ofan accident.
The vehicle is equipped with a number of sensorsthat may react in the event of an accident andactivate different safety systems, such as the air-bag system and seat belt tensioners. Dependingon the specific conditions of the accident, e.g.collisions at certain angles, overturning or swerv-ing, the systems react differently to help providethe best protection.
There are also mechanical safety systems suchas the Whiplash Protection System. The vehicleis also built so that a large part of the force of acollision is distributed to the vehicle's members,pillars, floor, roof and other parts of the body.
After an accident, the vehicle's safety mode maybe activated if any important function in the vehi-cle has been damaged.
Warning symbol in the instrument panel
The warning symbol in the instrumentpanel illuminates when the vehicle'selectrical system is in ignition mode II.The symbol will go out after approx. 6seconds if no faults are detected in the vehicle'ssafety systems.
WARNING
If the warning symbol remains illuminated orswitches on while driving and the messageSRS airbag Service urgent Drive toworkshop is displayed in the instrumentpanel, this indicates that something in thesafety system is not functioning properly.Volvo recommends contacting an authorizedVolvo workshop for repairs as soon as possi-ble.
WARNING
Never attempt to alter or repair any of thevehicle's safety systems yourself. Incorrectlyperformed repairs to any system could impairfunction and lead to serious injury. Volvo rec-ommends contacting an authorized Volvoworkshop.
If this dedicated warning symbol is notfunctioning, the general warning sym-bol will illuminate instead and the samemessage will be displayed in the instru-ment panel.
