LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT
Fitting and removing safety grilles*
The safety grille prevents loads or pets in the
cargo area from being thrown forward in the
passenger compartment under heavy brak-
ing.
The safety grille is crash-tested in accordance
with the ECE R17 legal requirement and fulfils
Volvo's strength requirements.
For safety reasons, the safety grille must
always be attached and anchored correctly.
WARNING
Under no circumstances may anybody
remain in the cargo area while the car is
moving. This is to avoid injury in the event
of heavy braking or an accident.
4 Applies to 7-seat cars.

The safety grille's parts consist of the grille
and two loose attaching braces. The attaching
braces each come with a screw cap and there
are two plastic sleeves for the safety grille.
WARNING
The safety grille must only be used in the
rear position described here. The roof
mountings behind the front seats are not
intended for the safety grille.
WARNING
For safety reasons, the third seat row
must be lowered when the safety grille is
fitted in the car.
IMPORTANT
It is not possible to have the protective
grille fitted at the same time as the cargo
cover.
Installation
1. Lower the rear seat and then lift the safety
grille in through one of the rear side doors
or via the tailgate - the arched/convex side
of the grille should face the cargo area
while the hooks on each side point up. The
attaching braces and plastic sleeves are
not used in this stage.
