WARNING
The driver is always responsible for operatingthe vehicle in a safe manner and for comply-ing with current statutes and regulations.
It is also essential to maintain and service thevehicle according to Volvo's recommendationsas stated in the owner's information and theservice and warranty booklet.
If the on-board information differs from theprinted owner's manual, the printed informa-tion always takes precedence.

•Volvo Structural Parts Statement (p. 30)
Volvo Structural Parts Statement
Volvo has always been and continues to be aleader in automotive safety.
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 existing
vehicle 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.

Technician certification
In addition to Volvo factory training, Volvo sup-ports certification by the National Institute forAutomotive Service Excellence (A.S.E.).
Certified technicians have demonstrated a highdegree of competence in specific areas. Besidespassing exams, each technician must also haveworked in the field for two or more years before acertificate is issued. These professional techni-cians are best able to analyze vehicle problemsand perform the necessary maintenance proce-dures to keep your Volvo at peak operating con-dition.

XC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid
Technicians performing work on a vehicle withelectrification should also have the necessarytraining and specialized certification required forperforming repairs and/or maintenance on avehicle with electrification.

WARNING
A number of electrical components in theXC90 T8 Twin Engine Plug-in Hybrid usehigh-voltage current and can be extremelydangerous if handled incorrectly. These com-ponents and any orange wiring in the vehiclemay only be handled by trained and qualifiedVolvo service technicians.

General safety information
The vehicle is equipped with a number of safetysystems for the driver and passengers.
In the event of an accident, there are a number ofsensors in the vehicle that react and triggersafety systems such as Roll Stability Control, air-bags, seat belt pretensioners, etc., depending onthe severity of the collision. There are alsomechanical systems such as the WhiplashProtection System.

Warning symbol in the instrument panel
The warning symbol in the instrumentpanel illuminates when the ignition is inmode II or higher. It will go out afterapprox. 6 seconds if no faults aredetected in the airbag system.

WARNING
•If the SRS warning light stays on after theengine 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 SRS yourself. Any interference inthe system could cause malfunction andserious injury. All work on these systemsshould be performed by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician.
If the dedicated warning symbol is notfunctioning, the general warning sym-bol will illuminate instead and the samemessage will be displayed in the instru-ment panel.

Occupant safety
Safety is Volvo's cornerstone.
Volvo's concern for safety
Our concern for safety dates back to 1927 whenthe first Volvo rolled off the production line.Three-point seat belts (a Volvo invention), safetycages, and energy-absorbing impact zones weredesigned into Volvo vehicles long before it wasfashionable or required by government regulation.
We will not compromise our commitment tosafety. We continue to seek out new safety fea-tures and to refine those already in our vehicles.You can help. We would appreciate hearing yoursuggestions about improving automobile safety.We also want to know if you ever have a safetyconcern with your vehicle.

The location of the front airbags is indicated bySRS AIRBAG embossed on the steering wheelpad and above the glove compartment, and bydecals on both sun visors and on the front andfar right side of the dash.
The driver's side front airbag is folded andlocated in the steering wheel hub.
The knee airbag is folded on the underside ofthe dashboard on the driver's side. The textAIRBAG is embossed on the panel.
The passenger's side front airbag is foldedbehind a panel located above the glove compart-ment.

WARNING
•The airbags in the vehicle are designed tobe a SUPPLEMENT to–not a replace-ment for–the three-point seat belts. Formaximum protection, wear seat belts at alltimes. Be aware that no system can pre-vent all possible injuries that may occur inan accident.
•Never drive with your hands on the steer-ing wheel pad/airbag housing.
•The front airbags are designed to helpprevent serious injury. Deployment occursvery quickly and with considerable force.During normal deployment and depend-ing on variables such as seating position,one may experience abrasions, bruises,swellings, or other injuries as a resultfrom deployment of one or both of theairbags.
•When installing any accessory equipment,make sure that the front airbag system isnot damaged. Any interference in the sys-tem could cause malfunction.

Front airbag deployment
•The front airbags are designed to deploy dur-ing certain frontal or front-angular collisions,impacts, or decelerations, depending on thecrash severity, angle, speed and objectimpacted. The airbags may also deploy in
certain non-frontal collisions where rapiddeceleration occurs.
•The airbag system sensors, which trigger thefront airbags, are designed to react to boththe impact of the collision and the inertialforces generated by it, and to determine ifthe intensity of the collision is sufficient forthe seat belt pretensioners and/or airbags tobe deployed.
However, not all frontal collisions activate thefront airbags.
•If the collision involves a nonrigid object (e.g.,a snow drift or bush), or a rigid, fixed objectat a low speed, the front airbags will not nec-essarily deploy.
•Front airbags do not normally deploy in aside impact collision, in a collision from therear or in a rollover situation.
•The amount of damage to the bodyworkdoes not reliably indicate if the airbagsshould have deployed or not.

SAFETY

NOTE
•Deployment of front airbags occurs onlyone time during an accident. In a collisionwhere deployment occurs, the airbagsand seat belt pretensioners activate.Some noise occurs and a small amountof powder is released. The release of thepowder may appear as smoke-like matter.This is a normal characteristic and doesnot indicate fire.
•Volvo's front airbags use special sensorsthat are integrated with the front seatbuckles. The point at which the airbagdeploys is determined by whether or notthe seat belt is being used, as well as theseverity of the collision.
•Collisions can occur where only one ofthe airbags deploys. If the impact is lesssevere, but severe enough to present aclear injury risk, the airbags are triggeredat partial capacity. If the impact is moresevere, the airbags are triggered at fullcapacity.
WARNING
•Do not use child safety seats or childbooster cushions/backrests in the frontpassenger's seat. We also recommendthat occupants under 4 feet 7 inches(140 cm) in height who have outgrownthese devices sit in the rear seat with theseat belt fastened. See also the Occu-pant Weight Sensor information,.
•Never drive with the airbags deployed.The fact that they hang out can impair thesteering of your vehicle. Other safety sys-tems can also be damaged.
•The smoke and dust formed when theairbags are deployed can cause skin andeye irritation in the event of prolongedexposure.
Should you have questions about any componentin the SRS system, please contact a trained andqualified Volvo service technician or Volvo cus-tomer support:
