  • Page 9 2007 Volvo XC90 Safety is the Volvo cornerstone. Our concern dates back to 1927 when the first Volvo rolled off the production line. Three-point seat belts (a Volvo invention), safety cages, and energy-absorbing impact zones were designed into Volvo vehicles long before it was fashionable or required by government regulation.

  • Page 10: Occupant Safety, Reporting Safety Defects

    Seat belts Using seat belts Volvo, the inventor of the three-point seat belt, urges you and all occupants of your vehicle to wear seat belts and ensure that children are properly restrained, using an infant, car, or booster seat determined by age, weight and height.
  • Page 11 2007 Volvo XC90 The seat belts are equipped with tensioners that reduce slack in the belts. These tensioners are triggered in situations where the airbags deploy. The front seat belts also include a tension reducing device which, in the event of a collision, limits the peak forces exerted by the seat belt on the occupant.
  • Page 12 2007 Volvo XC90 Seat belt use during pregnancy The seat belt should always be worn during pregnancy. But it is crucial that it be worn in the correct way. The diagonal section should wrap over the shoulder then be routed between the breasts and to the side of the belly.

  • Page 13: Supplemental Restraint System (Srs)

    Never repair the belt yourself; have this work done by an authorized Volvo service technician only. Any device used to induce slack into the shoulder belt portion of the three-point belt system will have a detrimental effect on the amount of protection available to you in the event of a collision.

  • Page 14: Front Airbags

    WARNING! If the SRS warning light stays on after the engine has started or if it illuminates while you are driving, have the vehicle inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible. Never try to repair any component or part of the SRS yourself. Any interference in the system could cause malfunction and serious injury.
  • Page 15 2007 Volvo XC90 The front airbag system The front airbags supplement the three-point seat belts. For these airbags to provide the protection intended, seat belts must be worn at all times. The front airbag system includes gas generators and the airbags. A deceleration sensor activates the gas generators, causing the airbags to be inflated with nitrogen gas.
  • Page 16 The release of the powder may appear as smoke-like matter. This is a normal characteristic and does not indicate fire. Volvo's dual-threshold, dual-stage front airbags use special sensors to control deployment. The point file:///K|/ownersdocs/2007/2007_XC90/07xc90_01.htm (9 of 39)12/30/2006 5:53:33 PM...

  • Page 18 Front airbags WARNING! Children must never be allowed in the front passenger's seat. Volvo recommends that ALL occupants (adults and children) shorter than 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) be seated in the back seat of any vehicle with a passenger-side front airbag. See page 30 for guidelines.

  • Page 21 (see the following table). 1. Volvo recommends that children always be properly restrained in appropriate child restraints in the rear seats. In rare situations when the seat belt is not properly fastened, some child restraints may not be detected by the OWS because there is very little weight on the vehicle seat cushion.
  • Page 22 Modifications If you are considering modifying your vehicle in any way to accommodate a disability, for example by altering or adapting the driver's or front passenger's seat(s) and/or airbag systems, please contact Volvo In the USA: Volvo Cars of North America, LLC Customer Care Center P.O.

  • Page 23: Side Impact (Sips) Airbag

    2007 Volvo XC90 WARNING! No objects that add to the total weight on the seat should be placed on the front passenger's seat. If a child is seated in the front passenger's seat with any additional weight, this extra weight could cause the OWS system to enable the airbag, which might cause it to deploy in the event of a collision, thereby injuring the child.
  • Page 24 2007 Volvo XC90 Side impact airbags - front seats only As an enhancement to the structural side impact protection built into your vehicle, the vehicle is also equipped with Side Impact Protection System (SIPS) airbags. The SIPS airbag system is designed to help increase occupant protection in the event of certain side impact collisions.

  • Page 25: Volvo Inflatable Curtain (Vic)

    The inflatable curtains in the Volvo XC90 are also designed to help protect the occupants of the vehicle in a roll-over situation, and to help prevent them from being thrown from the vehicle if a roll-over occurs.

  • Page 27 2007 Volvo XC90 WARNING! In order for the VIC to provide its best protection, both front seat occupants and both outboard rear seat occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt properly fastened; adults using the seat belt and children using the proper child restraint system. Only adults should sit in the front seats.

  • Page 28: Child Safety

    If your vehicle has been involved in a rear-end collision, the front seat backrests must be inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician, even if the seats appear to be undamaged. Certain components in the WHIPS system may need to be replaced.
