WARNING
Never hang or attach heavy items onto the
handles in the roof. The hooks are only
designed for light coats and jackets (not for
solid objects such as umbrellas).
Do not screw or install anything onto the
car's headlining, door pillars or side panels.
This could compromise the intended pro-
tection. Volvo recommends only using
Volvo genuine parts that are approved for
fitting within these areas.
WARNING
Leave 10 cm (4 inches) space between the
load and the side windows if the car is loa-
ded to above the top edge of the door win-
dows. Otherwise, the intended protection
of the inflatable curtain, which is concealed
in the headlining, may be compromised.
WARNING
The inflatable curtain is a supplement to
the seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.
