•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 21
for guidelines.
•Occupants in the front passenger's seat
must never sit on the edge of the seat, sit
leaning toward the instrument panel or
otherwise sit out of position.
•The occupant's back must be as upright as
comfort allows and be against the seat
back with the seat belt properly fastened.
•Feet must be on the floor, e.g., not on the
dash, seat or out of the window.
•No objects or accessory equipment, e.g.
dashboard covers, may be placed on,
attached to, or installed near the air bag
hatch (the area above the glove compart-
ment) or the area affected by airbag
deployment (see the illustration on page
6).
•There should be no loose articles, e.g.
coffee cups, on the floor, seat, or dash-
board area.
•Never try to open the airbag cover on the
steering wheel or the passenger’s side
dashboard. This should only be done by a
trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
