regulations.
pg. 33 Child safety
A specially designed and tested booster cushion (not available in Canada) can be obtained from your Volvo retailer
for children weighing 33 - 80 lb. (15 - 36 kg) and 38-54 inches (97 - 137 cm) in height.
WARNING!
Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also
recommend that children under 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) in height who have outgrown these devices sit in the
rear seat with the seat belt fastened.
Keep vehicle doors and trunk locked and keep keys out of a child's reach. Unsupervised children could lock
themselves in an open trunk and risk injury. Children should be taught not to play in vehicles.
On hot days, the temperature in the trunk or vehicle interior can rise very quickly. Exposure to these high
temperatures for even a short period of time can cause heat-related injury or death. Small children are
particularly at risk.

ISOFIX/LATCH anchors

Lower anchors for ISOFIX-equipped child seats are located in the rear, outboard seats, hidden below the backrest
cushions. Symbols on the seat back upholstery mark the anchor positions as shown. To access the anchors, kneel on
the seat cushion and locate the anchors by feel. Always follow your child seat manufacturer's installation
instructions, and use both ISOFIX lower anchors and top tethers whenever possible.
