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. The lap section
should lay flat over the thighs and as low as possible under the belly. It must never be allowed to ride upward. Remove
all slack from the belt and ensure that it fits close to the body without any twists.
As a pregnancy progresses, pregnant drivers should adjust their seats and steering wheel such that they can easily
maintain control of the vehicle as they drive (which means they must be able to easily operate the foot pedals and
steering wheel). Within this context, they should strive to position the seat with as large a distance as possible between
their belly and the steering wheel.
Child seats
Please refer to page 32
for information on securing child seats with the seat belts.
17 01 Safety
Safety in the passenger compartment
Supplemental restraint system
Warning symbols in the instrument panel
As an enhancement to the three-point seat belts, your Volvo is equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).
Volvo's SRS consists of seat belt tensioners, front airbags, side impact airbags, a front passenger occupant weight
sensor, and inflatable curtains. All of these systems are monitored by the SRS control module. An SRS warning light
in the instrument panel (see the illustration above) illuminates when the ignition is in modes I, II, or III, and will
normally go out after approximately 6 seconds if no faults are detected in the system.
Where applicable, a text message will also be displayed when the SRS warning light illuminates. If this warning
symbol is not functioning properly, the general warning symbol illuminates and a text message will be displayed. See
also pages 71and 72
for more information about indicator and warning symbols.
WARNING
ProCarManuals.com

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. All work on these systems should be performed by a trained and qualified Volvo
service technician.
WARNING
If your vehicle has been subjected to flood conditions (e.g. soaked carpeting/standing water on the floor of the
vehicle) or if your vehicle has become flood-damaged in any way, do not attempt to start the vehicle or insert the
remote control into the ignition slot before disconnecting the battery (see below). This may cause airbag deployment
which could result in personal injury. Have the vehicle towed to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for
repairs.
Automatic transmission:
Before attempting to tow the vehicle, use the following procedure to override the shiftlock system to move the gear
selector to the neutral position:
Switch off the ignition for at least 10 minutes and disconnect the battery
Wait at least one minute.
Insert the remote control into the ignition slot and press the Start button (without depressing brake pedal) to go to
ignition mode II. See page 75
for more information.
Press firmly on the brake pedal.
Move the gear selector from (P)ark to the (N)eutral position. See page 106 for information on manually overriding
the shiftlock system.
18 01 Safety
Safety in the passenger compartment
Front airbags
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 surrounded by the airbags and a deceleration sensor that activates the
gas generators, causing the airbags to be inflated with nitrogen gas.
ProCarManuals.com

Safety in the passenger compartment
Occupant Weight Sensor
Disabling the passenger's side front airbag
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 front passenger side airbag, and be properly restrained for their size and weight. See
also the child safety recommendations on page 31
.
The passenger's side front airbag is automatically enabled/disabled by the Occupant Weight Sensor (OWS), a system
that monitors the weight of the person or object in the front passenger's seat. The system consists of a silicone-filled
bag located under the padding in the front passenger's seat cushion, a control module located under this seat, and a seat
belt tension sensor, located on the outboard side of the seat.
The OWS system continuously monitors the pressure on the front passenger's seat cushion and the tension applied to
the seat belt. Based on this data, OWS assesses the weight of the occupant or object in the front passenger's seat. This
information is transmitted to the SRS system control module, which enables or disables the passenger's side front
airbag accordingly, as indicated in the table on page 22
.
If the system is functioning normally, the status of the front passenger's side airbag (enabled/disabled) will be shown
by the OWS indicator light as explained in the table on page 22
. The OWS indicator light is separate and in addition to
the SRS warning light in the instrument panel.
NOTE
When the ignition is switched on, the OWS indicator light will go on for up to 10 seconds while the system performs
a self -diagnostic test.
However, if a fault is detected in the system:
The OWS indicator light will stay on
The SRS warning light (see page 17) will come on and stay on
The message PASS. AIRBAG OFF SERVICE URGENT will be displayed in the information display.
WARNING
If a fault in the system is detected and indicated as explained on the preceding page, be aware that the passenger's
side front airbag will not deploy in the event of a collision. In this case, the SRS system and Occupant Weight
Sensor should be inspected by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician as soon as possible.
WARNING
ProCarManuals.com

Driving after a collision
If the vehicle has been involved in a collision, the text SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL may appear in the
information display. This indicates that the vehicle's functionality has been reduced.
NOTE
This text can only be shown if the display is undamaged and the vehicle's electrical system is intact.
Safety mode is a feature that is triggered if one or more of the safety systems (e.g. front or side airbags, an inflatable
curtain, or one or more of the seat belt tensioners) has deployed. The collision may have damaged an important
function in the vehicle, such as the fuel lines, sensors for one of the safety systems, the brake system, etc.
WARNING
Never attempt to repair the vehicle yourself or to reset the electrical system after the vehicle has displayed
SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL. This could result in injury or improper system function.
Restoring the vehicle to normal operating status should only be done by a trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
After SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL has been displayed, if you detect the odor of fuel vapor, or see any signs
of fuel leakage, do not attempt to start the vehicle. Leave the vehicle immediately.
Attempting to start the vehicle
If damage to the vehicle is minor and there is no fuel leakage, you may attempt to start the vehicle. To do so:
1. Remove the remote control from the ignition slot.
2. Reinsert the remote in the ignition slot. The vehicle will then attempt to reset Safety mode to normal status.
3. Try to start the vehicle.
Moving the vehicle
If the electrical system is able to reset system status to normal (SAFETY MODE SEE MANUAL will no longer be
shown in the display), the vehicle may be moved carefully from its present position, if for example, it is blocking
traffic. It should, however, not be moved farther than is absolutely necessary.
WARNING
Even if the vehicle appears to be drivable after Safety mode has been set, it should not be driven or towed (pulled by
another vehicle). There may be concealed damage that could make it difficult or impossible to control. The vehicle
should be transported on a flatbed tow truck to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician for inspection/repairs.

In the event of a collision while the integrated booster cushion was occupied, the entire booster cushion and seat
belt must be replaced. The booster cushion should also be replaced if it is badly worn or damaged in any way. This
work should be performed by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician only
