Children should sit comfortably
and safely
Remember that children, regardless of age or
size, should always be securely strapped into
the car. Never allow a child to sit on the knee of
a passenger!
The weight and height of the child must be
considered when selecting equipment and its
location, see page 25.
Volvo's own child safety equipment is designed
for your car. If you select Volvo equipment, you
can be sure that the mounting points and attach-
ments are correctly positioned and sufficiently
strong.
Children up to 3 years of age sit safest in a rear-
facing child seat.
Many countries have regulations regarding
where children should be located in the car.
Find out what laws apply in the countries you
will be visiting.
WARNING
Never put a child seat/booster cushion in the
front seat if the car is equipped with SRS
(airbag) on the passenger side.

If the car has a passenger airbag, the child seat
must be placed in the rear seat.
If seated in a child seat in front of a passenger
airbag and the airbag inflates, the child could be
seriously injured.
Passengers shorter than 140 cm must
in the front passenger seat if the car has a
passenger airbag.
