NOTE: Deployment of SRS components occurs only one time during an accident. In a collision where deployment occurs, the air bags and seat belt tensioners activate. Some noise occurs and a small amount of powder is released. The release of the powder may appear as smoke-like matter. This is a normal characteristic and does not indicate fire. Volvo's dual-threshold air bags use special sensors that are integrated with the front seat buckles. The point at which the air bag deploys is determined by whether or not the seat belt is being used, as well as, the severity of the collision. Collisions can occur where only one of the airbags deploy. WARNING! Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend that children who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt properly fastened. WARNING! · Children must never be allowed in the front passenger seat. Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and children) shorter than four feet seven inches (140 cm) be seated in the back seat of any vehicle with a front passenger side airbag. See page 12 for guidelines. · Occupants in the front passenger's seat must never sit on the edge of the seat, sit leaning toward the instrument panel or otherwise 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. · Feet must be on the floor, e.g. not on the dash, seat or out of the window. · No objects or accessory equipment, e.g. dash covers, may be placed on, attached to or installed near the SRS hatch (the area above the glove compartment) or the area affected by airbag deployment (see illustration). · There should be no loose articles, e.g. coffee cups, on the floor, seat or dash area. · Never try to open the SRS cover on the steering wheel or the passenger side SRS hatch. This should only be done by an authorized Volvo service technician. · Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury to the vehicle occupants in an accident. pg. 7 Volvo SRS NOTE : The information on this page does not pertain to the Side Impact Protection System airbags.

NOTE:
Deployment of SRS components occurs only one time during an accident. In a collision where deployment occurs,
the air bags and seat belt tensioners activate. Some noise occurs and a small amount of powder is released. The release
of the powder may appear as smoke-like matter. This is a normal characteristic and does not indicate fire.
Volvo's dual-threshold air bags use special sensors that are integrated with the front seat buckles. The point at which
the air bag deploys is determined by whether or not the seat belt is being used, as well as, the severity of the collision.
Collisions can occur where only one of the airbags deploy.

Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also recommend
that children who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt properly fastened.
