Volvo 1990 740 Model
WARNING! Never use a seat belt for more than one occupant.
Never wear the shoulder portion of the belt under the arm, behind the back or otherwise out of
position.
Such use could cause injury in event of accident.
As the seat belts lose much of their strength when exposed to violent stretching, they should be
replaced after any collision, even though they may appear to be undamaged.
Never repair the belt on your own; have this done by an authorized Volvo dealer only.
pg. 34 Volvo SRS
As an enhancement to the three-point seat belt system, your Volvo is equipped with a Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS). The Volvo SRS consists of a driver's side airbag with a driver's side knee
bolster. The system is designed to supplement the protection provided by the three-point seat belt
system.
The interior of an SRS-equipped Volvo looks very much the same as any other. The only indications of
the system's presence are the "SRS" embossed on the steering wheel pad, and the knee bolster beneath
the steering column.
The airbag is folded and located in the center of the steering wheel. It is released only during certain
frontal or front-angular collisions in which the forces sustained by the car are equivalent to an impact
into a rigid barrier of approximately 12 mph (19 kph).
