Airbags (Srs) - Volvo C30 Owner's Manual

01 Safety

Airbags (SRS)

01
Airbag (SRS) on the driver's side
The car has an SRS airbag (Supplemental
Restraint System) on the driver's side to sup-
plement the protection afforded by the seat-
belt. This airbag is fitted into the centre of the
steering wheel. The steering wheel is marked
SRS AIRBAG.
WARNING
The seatbelts and airbags interact. If a seat-
belt is not used or is used incorrectly, this
may diminish the protection provided by the
airbag in the event of a collision.

Passenger airbag (SRS)

The car has an airbag to supplement the
protection afforded by the seatbelt on the
passenger side. This airbag is folded up into
a compartment above the glovebox, and its
cover panel is marked SRS AIRBAG.
WARNING
To minimise the risk of injury if the airbag
deploys, passengers must sit as upright as
possible with their feet on the floor and
back against the backrest. Seatbelts must
be secured.

Not all cars have a passenger airbag (SRS).
This can be unselected when the car is
ordered.
WARNING
Never place a child in a child seat or on a
booster cushion in the front seat if the air-
1
bag (SRS) is activated.
Never allow a child to stand or sit in front of
the front passenger seat. No one shorter
than 140 cm should ever sit in the front pas-
senger seat if the airbag (SRS) is activated.
Failure to follow the advice given above can
endanger the life of the child.
