Driving after a collision If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, the text SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL may appear in the information display. This indicates that the vehicle's functionality has been reduced. NOTE This text can only be shown if the display is undamaged and the vehicle's electrical system is intact. Safety mode is a feature that is triggered if one or more of the safety systems (e.g. front or side airbags, an inflatable curtain, or one or more of the seat belt tensioners) has deployed. The collision may have damaged an important function in the vehicle, such as the fuel lines, sensors for one of the safety systems, the brake system, etc. WARNING Never attempt to repair the vehicle yourself or to reset the electrical system after the vehicle has displayed SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL. This could result in injury or improper system function. Restoring the vehicle to normal operating status should only be done by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. After SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL has been displayed, if you detect the odor of fuel vapor, or see any signs of fuel leakage, do not attempt to start the vehicle. Leave the vehicle immediately. Attempting to start the vehicle If damage to the vehicle is minor and there is no fuel leakage, you may attempt to start the vehicle. To do so: 1. Remove the remote control from the ignition slot. 2. Reinsert the remote in the ignition slot. The vehicle will then attempt to reset Safety mode to normal status. 3. Try to start the vehicle. Moving the vehicle If the electrical system is able to reset system status to normal (SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL will no longer be shown in the display), the vehicle may be moved carefully from its present position, if for example, it is blocking traffic. It should, however, not be moved farther than is absolutely necessary. WARNING Even if the vehicle appears to be drivable after Safety mode has been set, it should not be driven or towed (pulled by another vehicle). There may be concealed damage that could make it difficult or impossible to control. The vehicle should be transported on a flatbed tow truck to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for inspection/repairs.

Driving after a collision
If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, the text SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL may appear in the
information display. This indicates that the vehicle's functionality has been reduced.
NOTE
This text can only be shown if the display is undamaged and the vehicle's electrical system is intact.
Safety mode is a feature that is triggered if one or more of the safety systems (e.g. front or side airbags, an inflatable
curtain, or one or more of the seat belt tensioners) has deployed. The collision may have damaged an important
function in the vehicle, such as the fuel lines, sensors for one of the safety systems, the brake system, etc.
WARNING
Never attempt to repair the vehicle yourself or to reset the electrical system after the vehicle has displayed
SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL. This could result in injury or improper system function.
Restoring the vehicle to normal operating status should only be done by a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
After SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL has been displayed, if you detect the odor of fuel vapor, or see any signs
of fuel leakage, do not attempt to start the vehicle. Leave the vehicle immediately.
Attempting to start the vehicle
If damage to the vehicle is minor and there is no fuel leakage, you may attempt to start the vehicle. To do so:
1. Remove the remote control from the ignition slot.
2. Reinsert the remote in the ignition slot. The vehicle will then attempt to reset Safety mode to normal status.
3. Try to start the vehicle.
Moving the vehicle
If the electrical system is able to reset system status to normal (SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL will no longer be
shown in the display), the vehicle may be moved carefully from its present position, if for example, it is blocking
traffic. It should, however, not be moved farther than is absolutely necessary.
WARNING
Even if the vehicle appears to be drivable after Safety mode has been set, it should not be driven or towed (pulled by
another vehicle). There may be concealed damage that could make it difficult or impossible to control. The vehicle
should be transported on a flatbed tow truck to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for inspection/repairs.
