2002 Volvo C70 Coupe & Convertible
The heart of the Volvo safety system is the threepoint seat belt (a Volvo invention)! In order for the
SRS system to provide the protection intended, seat belts must be worn at all times by everyone in the
car.
The SRS system is a supplement to the seat belts.
WARNING!
If your car has been subjected to flood conditions (e.g. soaked carpeting/standing water on the floor
of the vehicle) or if your car has become flooddamaged in any way, do not attempt to start the vehicle
or put the key in the ignition before disconnecting the battery (see below). This may cause airbag
deployment which could result in personal injury. Have the car towed to an authorized Volvo retailer
for repairs.
Automatic transmission only:
Before attempting to tow the car, use the following procedure to override the shiftlock system to
move the gear selector to the neutral position.
· Disconnect the battery
· Wait at least one minute
· Insert the key in the ignition and turn it to position 1
· Press firmly on the shiftlock override button (located near the base of the gear selector).
· While holding the override button down, move the gear selector from the park position.
WARNING!
Never drive with the airbags deployed. The fact that they hang out can impair the steering of your car.
Other safety systems can also be damaged. The smoke and dust formed when the airbags are
deployed can cause skin and eye irritation in the event of prolonged exposure.
WARNING!
Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also
recommend that children who have outgrown these devices sit in the rear seat with the seat belt
properly fastened.
