Inflatable Curtain - Volvo S60 Owner's Manual

Inflatable Curtain

(IC - Inflatable Curtain)
The inflatable curtain protects the head from
striking the interior of the car and provides
better protection from objects from the other
vehicle. The IC system protects both the front
seat occupants and the passengers sitting in the
outer rear seats. The inflatable curtain is
concealed inside the headlining. The IC system
– inflatable curtain – covers the upper part of
the interior for the front and rear seats.
The IC system is activated by the SIPS system
collision sensors when the car is hit from the
side. When the IC system is activated, the
curtain is filled with gas from the gas generator,
which is located in the rear of the curtain.
WARNING
Do not screw or mount anything to the
headlining, door pillars or side panels. The
intended protection may be compromised.
