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 35 for information on
securing child seats with the seat belts.
Seat belt reminder
G029652
Seat belt reminder light in ceiling console
The seat belt reminder consists of an audible
signal, an indicator light near the rearview mir-
ror and a symbol in the instrument panel that
alert all occupants of the vehicle to fasten theirseat belts. The audible signal and warning light
will be on for a total of 6 seconds from the time
the ignition is switched on, regardless of
whether or not the seat belts are fastened.
If the front seat belts are unbuckled while the
vehicle is in motion, the audible signal and
warning light will be active for a total of 6 sec-
onds.
Rear seatsThe seat belt reminder in the rear seat has two
additional functions:
•It provides information about which seat
belts are fastened in the rear seat. A mes-
sage will appear in the information display
when a belt is being used. This message
will disappear after approximately 6 sec-
onds or can be erased by pressing the
READ button on the left steering wheel
lever.
•It also provides a reminder if one of the
occupants of the rear seat has unbuckled
his/her seat belt while the vehicle is in
motion. A visual and audible signal will be
given. These signals will stop when the
seat belt has been re-buckled or can be
stopped by pressing the READ button.
The message in the information display can
always be accessed, even if it has been erased,
by pressing the READ button to display stored
messages.
Seat belt maintenance
Check periodically that the seat belts are in
good condition. Use water and a mild deter-
gent for cleaning. Check seat belt mechanism
function as follows: attach the seat belt and pull
rapidly on the strap.

01 Safety
Supplemental Restraint System01

21 Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
G026330
SRS warning light
As an enhancement to the three-point seat
belts, your Volvo is equipped with a Supple-
mental Restraint System (SRS). Volvo's SRS
consists of seat belt pretensioners, front air-
bags, side impact airbags, the occupant
weight sensor, and door-mounted inflatable
curtains. All of these systems are monitored by
the SRS control module. An SRS warning light
in the instrument panel (see the illustration) illu-
minates when the ignition key is turned to posi-
tion I, II, or III, and will normally go out after
approximately 7 seconds if no faults are
detected in the system.Where applicable, a text message will also be
displayed when the SRS warning light illumi-
nates. If this warning symbol is not functioning
properly, the general warning symbol illumi-
nates and either
SRS AIRBAG SERVICE
URGENT or SRS AIRBAG SERVICE
REQUIRED will be displayed.
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 interfer-
ence in the system could cause mal-
function 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
put the key in the ignition before discon-
necting 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 tech-
nician 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:
1. Switch off the ignition for at least
10 minutes and disconnect the battery.
2. Wait at least one minute.
3. Insert the key in the ignition and turn it
to position II.
4. Press firmly on the brake pedal.
5.
Move the gear selector from Park (P) to
the Neutral (N) position, see page 149,
for information on manually overriding
the shiftlock system.

•Children must never be allowed in the
front passenger's seat. Volvo recom-
mends 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 34 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.
WARNING
•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
compartment) or the area affected by
airbag deployment.
•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.
•Failure to follow these instructions can
result in injury to the vehicle occupants.

information and warning messages, the
ambient temperature, clock, etc. When the
ambient temperature is between 23 °F and
36 °F (–5 °C and +2 °C), a snowflake sym-
bol is shown in the display. This symbol
serves as a warning for possible slippery
road surfaces. Please note that this symbol
does not indicate a fault with your car. At
low speeds, or when the car is not moving,the temperature readings may be slightly
higher than the actual ambient tempera-
ture.

Tachometer – Shows engine speed in
thousands of revolutions per minute (rpm).
Do not drive continuously with the needle
in the red area of the dial, which indicates
maximum allowable engine rpm range.
Instead, shift to a higher gear or slow the
vehicle down. The engine management
system will automatically prevent exces-sively high engines speeds. This will be
noticeable as a pronounced unevenness in
engine speed.
