2007 Volvo V70
Securing cargo
As a safety precaution, your vehicle is equipped with four eyelets in the cargo space to which straps can
be attached to secure luggage.
WARNING!
The eyelets for securing cargo are not to be used as passenger restraints or as anchorages for child
restraints.
Unless the vehicle is equipped with an optional Volvo auxiliary seat for children, passengers
should not ride in the rear cargo area.
Keep the following in mind when loading the vehicle
The load carrying capacity of your vehicle is determined by factors such as the number of passengers,
the amount of cargo, the weight of any accessories that may be installed, etc. See the section "Vehicle
loading" in the chapter "Wheels and tires" for more detailed information.
Remember that a 44 lbs object produces a force of 2,200 lbs in a head-on collision at 30 mph.
