Inflatable Curtain (Ic) - Volvo V70 Owner's Manual

Properties
The inflatable curtain IC (Inflatable Curtain) is
a part of SIPS and the airbags. It is fitted in
the headlining along both sides of the roof
and protects the car's occupants sitting in the
outer seats. A sufficiently violent collision
trips the sensors and the inflatable curtain is
inflated. The inflatable curtain helps to pre-
vent the driver and passengers from striking
their heads on the inside of the car during a
collision.
WARNING
Never hang or attach heavy items onto the
handles in the roof. The hook is only
designed for light clothing (not for solid
objects such as umbrellas for example).
Do not screw or install anything onto the
car's headlining, door pillars or side pan-
els. This could compromise the intended
protection. Volvo recommends that you
only ever use Volvo genuine parts that are
approved for placement in these areas.
WARNING
Do not load the car higher than 50 mm
under the top edge of the door windows.
Otherwise, the intended protection of the
inflatable curtain, which is concealed in the
headlining, may be compromised.
WARNING
The inflatable curtain is a supplement to
the seatbelts.
Always use a seatbelt.
