Inflatable Curtain (Ic) - Volvo C70 Owner's Manual

Properties
The inflatable curtain, DMIC (Door Mounted
Inflatable Curtain), is a supplement to the
SIPS system. It is fitted inside along the driv-
er's and passenger side and protects both
front seat passengers. The inflatable curtain
is activated by sensors in the event of a suffi-
ciently violent collision or if the car is at risk
of overturning. When deployed, the inflata-
ble curtain inflates. The inflatable curtain
helps to prevent the driver and front seat
passenger from striking their heads on the in-
side of the car during a collision. The inflata-
ble curtain is deployed irrespective of wheth-
er the roof is open or closed.
WARNING
Never hang or attach heavy items onto the
handles in the roof. The hook is only de-
signed for light clothing (not for solid ob-
jects such as umbrellas for example).
Do not screw or fit anything to the headlin-
ing, door pillars or side panels. This could
compromise the intended protection. Only
use Volvo genuine parts that are approved
for placement in these areas.
