Airbag system
As an enhancement to the three-point seat belts,your vehicle is equipped with an airbag system.
WARNING
•If the airbag warning light stays on afterthe engine has started or if it illuminateswhile you are driving, have the vehicleinspected by a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician as soon as possible.
•Never try to repair any component or partof the airbag systems yourself. Any inter-ference in the system could cause mal-function and serious injury. All work onthese systems should be performed by atrained and qualified Volvo service techni-cian.
WARNING
If your vehicle has become flood-damaged inany way (e.g., soaked carpeting/standingwater on the floor of the vehicle), do notattempt to start the vehicle. This may causeairbag deployment which could result in seri-ous injury. Have the vehicle towed to a trainedand qualified Volvo service technician forrepairs.
Before attempting to tow the vehicle:
1.Switch off the ignition for at least10 minutes and disconnect the battery.
2. Follow the instructions for manually over-riding the shiftlock system.
Deployed airbags
WARNING
If any of the airbags have deployed:
•Do not attempt to drive the vehicle. Haveit towed to a qualified repair facility.
•If necessary seek medical attentIon.
Driver/passenger side airbags
The front airbags supplement the three-pointseat belts. For these airbags to provide the pro-tection intended, seat belts must be worn at alltimes.
Driver's and passenger's side airbags
The front airbag system
The front airbag system includes gas generatorssurrounded by the airbags, and deceleration sen-sors that activate the gas generators, causing theairbags to be inflated with nitrogen gas.
As the movement of the seats' occupants com-presses the airbags, some of the gas is expelledat a controlled rate to provide better cushioning.Both seat belt pretensioners also deploy, mini-mizing seat belt slack. The entire process, includ-ing inflation and deflation of the airbags, takesapproximately one fifth of a second.

Disabling the passenger's side front
airbag
Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adultsand children) shorter than 4 feet 7 inches(140 cm) be seated in the back seat of any vehi-cle with a front passenger side airbag and beproperly restrained for their size and weight.
The OWS works with sensors that are part of thefront passenger's seat and seat belt. The sensorsare designed to detect the presence of a properly

seated occupant and determine if the passeng-er's side front airbag should be enabled (mayinflate) or disabled (will not inflate).
The OWS will disable (will not inflate) the pas-senger's side front airbag when:
•the front passenger's seat is unoccupied, orhas small/medium objects in the front seat,
•the system determines that an infant is pres-ent in a rear-facing infant seat that is instal-led according to the manufacturer's instruc-tions,
•the system determines that a small child ispresent in a forward-facing child restraintthat is installed according to the manufactur-er's instructions,
•the system determines that a small child ispresent in a booster seat,
•a front passenger takes his/her weight off ofthe seat for a period of time,
•a child or a small person occupies the frontpassenger's seat.
The OWS uses a PASSENGER AIRBAG OFFindicator lamp which will illuminate and stay on toremind you that the passenger's side front airbagis disabled. The PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indi-cator lamp is located in the overhead console,near the base of the rearview mirror.
NOTE
When the ignition is switched on, the OWSindicator light will illuminate for several sec-onds while the system performs a self-diag-nostic test.
However, if a fault is detected in the system:
•The OWS indicator light will stay on
•The SRS warning light will come on and stayon and a text message will be displayed.
WARNING
If a fault in the system is detected and indi-cated as described, be aware that the pas-senger's side front airbag will not deploy inthe event of a collision. In this case, the SRSsystem and Occupant Weight Sensor shouldbe inspected by a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician as soon as possible.
WARNING
•Never try to open, remove, or repair anycomponents in the OWS system. Thiscould result in system malfunction. Main-tenance or repairs should only be carriedout by an a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician.
•The front passenger's seat should not bemodified in any way. This could reducepressure on the seat cushion, whichmight interfere with the OWS system'sfunction.

Programming the HomeLink®
Wireless Control System*
NOTE
Some vehicles may require the ignition to beswitched on or be in the “accessories” posi-tion for programming and/or operation ofHomeLink. It is also recommended that a newbattery be placed in the hand-held transmitterof the device being programmed to Home-Link for quicker training and accurate trans-mission of the radio-frequency signal. TheHomeLink buttons must be reset first. Whenthis has been completed, Homelink is inlearning mode so that you can perform pro-gramming.
To program HomeLink®
1.Press the HomeLink® button to be pro-
grammed. The HomeLink® indicator willbegin flashing yellow once a second. You donot need to continue holding the button.
2.Point the hand-held transmitter toward the
HomeLink® button to be programmed andhold it approx. 6–12 inches (15–30 cm)
away from the HomeLink® button. Do not
obstruct the HomeLink® indicator light.

Gate Operator/Canadian Programming
Canadian radio-frequency laws require transmit-ter signals to “time-out” (or quit) after severalseconds of transmission – which may not be longenough for HomeLink to pick up the signal dur-ing programming. Similar to this Canadian law,some U.S. gate operators are designed to “time-out” in the same manner.
If you live in Canada or you are having difficultiesprogramming a gate operator or garage dooropener by using the “Programming” procedures,replace “Programming HomeLink” step 3with the following:
•Continue to press and hold the HomeLinkbutton while you press and release - everytwo seconds (“cycle”) your hand-held trans-mitter until the HomeLink indicator lightchanges from a slow to a rapidly blinkinglight. Now you may release both the Home-Link and hand-held transmitter buttons.
Proceed with “Programming” step 4 to complete.
Using HomeLink ®
When programming has been completed,
HomeLink® can be used instead of the originalremote controls.
To operate, press and hold the programmed
HomeLink® button until the trained device begins
to operate3 (this may take several seconds). The
indicator light will glow steadily or flash when thebutton has been pressed. Activation will nowoccur for the trained device (i.e., garage dooropener, gate operator, security system, entry doorlock, home/office lighting, etc.).
NOTE
If the ignition is switched off, HomeLink willfunction for 30 minutes after the driver's doorhas been opened.
For convenience, the hand-held transmitter of thedevice may also be used at any time.
In the event that there are still programming diffi-culties or questions, contact HomeLink at:www.HomeLink.com, www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex or by phoning the hotline at 1–800–355–3515.
Resetting HomeLink ®
buttons
Use the following procedure to reset (erase pro-
gramming) from the three HomeLink® buttons(individual buttons cannot be reset but can be“reprogrammed” as outlined in the following sec-tion):
1.Press and hold HomeLink® buttons 1 and 3for approx. 10 seconds until the indicatorlight begins to flash green.
2. Release both buttons.
>HomeLink® is now in the training (orlearning) mode and can be programmedat any time beginning with “To program
HomeLink®" above.
Reprogramming a single HomeLink ®
button
To reprogram an individual HomeLink® button:
1.Press and hold the desired HomeLink® but-ton. DO NOT release the button.
2. The yellow indicator light will begin to flashafter 20 seconds. Without releasing theHomeLink button, proceed with “To program
HomeLink®" step 1 above.
