Rear seat
The rear seat belt reminder has two functions:
To indicate which seat belts are buckled in
•
the rear seats. This will also be displayed in
an instrument panel graphic.
To provide audio and visual reminders if any
•
seat belt in the rear seat is removed while
the vehicle is in motion. The reminder will
stop when the seat belt has been rebuckled.
Door/hood/trunk lid and fuel filler door
reminder
If the hood, trunk lid, fuel filler door or any door is
not properly closed, this will be indicated by a
graphic in the instrument panel. Stop the vehicle
safely and close the open door, hood, etc.
If the vehicle is moving at a speed
under approx. 10 km/h (6 mph), the
information symbol will illuminate in the
instrument panel.

Airbags
The vehicle is equipped with airbags and inflat-
able curtains for the driver and passengers.
WARNING
If the airbag warning light stays on after
•
the engine has started or if it illuminates
while you are driving, have the vehicle
inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo
service technician as soon as possible.
Never attempt to alter or repair any of the
•
vehicle's safety systems yourself. Incor-
rectly performed repairs to any system
could impair function and lead to serious
injury. All work on these systems should
be performed by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.
WARNING
If your vehicle has become water-damaged in
any way (e.g., soaked floor mats/standing
water on the floor of the vehicle), do not
attempt to start the engine. This may cause
airbag deployment, which could result in seri-
ous injury. Volvo recommends towing the
vehicle directly to an authorized Volvo work-
shop.
Before attempting to tow the vehicle:
1. Switch off the ignition for at least 10
minutes and disconnect the battery.
2. Follow the instructions for manually over-
riding the shiftlock system.
Deployed airbags
WARNING
If any of the airbags have deployed:
Do not attempt to drive the vehicle. Have
•
it towed to an authorized workshop.
If necessary, seek medical attention.
