SAFETY
||
WARNING
• A small child's head represents a consider-
able part of its total weight and its neck is
still very weak. Volvo recommends that
children up to age 4 travel, properly
restrained, facing rearward. In addition,
Volvo recommends that children should
ride rearward facing, properly restrained, as
long as possible.
• Convertible child seats should be installed
in the rear seat only.
• A rear-facing convertible seat should not
be positioned behind the driver's seat
unless there is adequate space for safe
installation.
2. Attach the seat belt to the convertible seat
according to the child restraint manufactur-
er's instructions.

Fasten the seat belt.
3. Fasten the seat belt by inserting the latch
plate into the buckle (lock) until a distinct
click is audible.
4. Pull the shoulder section of the seat belt out
as far as possible to activate the belt's auto-
matic locking function.
NOTE
The locking retractor will automatically
release when the seat belt is unbuckled and
allowed to retract fully.
5. Press the convertible seat firmly in place, let
the seat belt retract and pull it taut. A sound
from the seat belt retractor's automatic lock-
ing function will be audible at this time and is
normal. The seat belt should now be locked
in place.
Pull out the shoulder section of the seat belt.
6. Push and pull the convertible seat along the
seat belt path to ensure that it is held
securely in place by the seat belt.
