Safety Seatbelts Label on seatbelts with seatbelt tensioner. Seatbelt tensioner All the seatbelts are equipped with belt ten- sioners. A mechanism in the belt tensioner tightens the belt around the body in the event of a sufficiently violent collision. This provides more effective restraint for passengers.

Page 15: Airbags (Srs)
Safety Airbags (SRS) Airbag (SRS) on the driver’s side The car has an SRS airbag (Supplemental Restraint System) in the steering wheel to supplement the protection afforded by the seatbelt. This airbag is fitted into the centre of the steering wheel. The steering wheel is marked SRS AIRBAG.
Page 16: Srs System
Safety WARNING! Repairs must only be performed by an authorised Volvo workshop. Work on the SRS system can cause malfunction and result in serious personal injury.
Page 17 Safety Airbags (SRS) Location of the passenger airbag in left-hand drive and right-hand drive cars. WARNING! Never interfere with SRS components in the steering wheel or the panel above the glovebox. Objects and accessories must not be positioned or glued on or near the SRS Airbag panel (above the glovebox) or in the area affected by a deployed airbag.
Page 18: Activating/Deactivating The Airbag (Srs)
The switch is located on the passenger end of the dashboard and is accessible when the passenger door is open. Check that the switch is in the required position. Volvo rec- ommends that that the ignition key is used to change position. (Other items with a shape similar to a key can be used).

(SRS) is deactivated and the airbag warning sym- bol is displayed in the combined instru- ment panel. This indicates that there has been a severe malfunction. Contact an authorised Volvo workshop as soon as possible.
Page 20: Side Airbags (Sips Bags)
WARNING! Use only Volvo genuine car seat covers, or seat covers approved by Volvo. Other seat covers may impede the operation of the side air bags.
Page 21 Safety Side airbags (SIPS bags) Right-hand drive. Left-hand drive. SIPS bags The side airbag is equipped with a gas gen- erator. A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and ignites the gas generator, inflat- ing the side airbag. The airbag inflates between the occupant and the door panel and thereby cushions the initial impact while deflating.
Page 22: Inflatable Curtain (Ic)
(not for hard objects such as umbrellas). Do not screw or fit anything to the headlining, door pillars or side panels. This could compromise the intended protection. Only use Volvo genuine parts that are approved for placement in these areas. Safety WARNING!
Page 23: Correct Seating Position
This diminishes the risk of whiplash injury. WARNING! Never modify or repair the seat or WHIPS system yourself. Contact an authorised Volvo workshop. WHIPS system and child seats/ booster cushions The WHIPS system does not diminish the protection provided by the car to children seated in a child seat or on a booster cushion.
Page 24 Volvo workshop. Part of the WHIPS system’s protective capacity may have been lost even if the seats appear to be undamaged. Contact an authorised Volvo workshop to have the system checked even after a minor rear- end collision.
Page 25: When Are The Safety Systems Activated
If the airbags have been deployed, the follow- ing is recommended: • Have the car transported to an authorised Volvo workshop. Do not drive with deployed airbags. • Have an authorised Volvo workshop replace components in the car’s safety system.
Page 26: Inspecting The Airbags And Inflatable Curtains
Inspection intervals The decal on the door pillar(s) shows the dates (year, month) when you should contact an authorised Volvo workshop to inspect and, if necessary, replace the airbags, belt ten- sioners and inflatable curtains. If you have questions concerning the systems, contact an authorised Volvo workshop.
Page 27: Child Safety
Never allow a child to sit on the knee of a passenger. Volvo’s own child safety equipment is designed for your car. Use Volvo genuine equipment to best ensure that the mounting points and attachments are correctly posi- tioned and are sufficiently strong.

Keep in mind the following: • Drive the engine to operating temperature as soon as possible! That is to say: do not let the engine idle, but drive with a light load as soon as you can.
Page 104 Starting and driving General To avoid the engine overheating: Do not exceed engine speeds of 4500 rpm (diesel engine: 3500 rpm) if driving with a trailer or caravan in hilly terrain. The oil tem- perature can become too high.

Wheels and tyres General Driving characteristics and tyres The tyres greatly affect the car’s driving char- acteristics. The type of tyre, dimensions, tyre pressure and speed rating are important for how the car performs. When changing tyres, ensure that tyres of the same type and dimensions, and preferably also the same make, are fitted to all four wheels.
Page 140: Winter Tyres
The tyre dimensions are dependent on the engine variant. When driving on winter tyres, these must be fitted to all four wheels. NOTE! Ask a Volvo dealer which rim and tyre types are most suitable. Studded tyres Studded winter tyres should be run in gently for 500-1000 km so the studs settle properly into the tyre.
