2002 Volvo C70 Coupe & Convertible
pg. 10 Roll Over Protection System (ROPS)
Roll Over Protection System (ROPS)
· The ROPS system consists of two roll bars located behind the rear seat head restraints and a sensor
which monitors the roll or pitch angle of the car. If the pitch angle exceeds approximately 72 degrees or
the roll angle exceeds approximately 38 degrees, the sensor automatically deploys (raises) the roll bars.
· If the ROPS system has been deployed, an authorized Volvo retailer should inspect the system and
make any necessary repairs/adjustments.
· No objects should be placed over the roll bars behind the rear seat head restraints.
· No one should be allowed to sit on the cover over the convertible top storage compartment.
Seats belts for all seating positions are equipped with seat belt tensioners.
WARNING!
The rear seat of the Volvo C70 is intended for two occupants only. Only two three-point seat belts
are provided. The center position should never be used to seat a passenger.
You should never perform any maintenance or in any way attempt to repair/adjust the ROPS
system yourself.
