Registering a child restraint
Child restraints could be recalled for safety
reasons. You must register your child restraint
to be reached in a recall. To stay informed
about child safety seat recalls, be sure to fill out
and return the registration card that comes
with new child restraints.
Child restraint recall information is readily avail-
able in both the U.S. and Canada. For recall
information in the U.S., call the U.S. Govern-
ment's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393.
In Canada, visit Transport Canada's Child
Safety website at http://www.tc.gc.ca/

01 Safety
Integrated booster cushion01

* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.47 Integrated two-stage booster
cushion*
1
Volvo's optional integrated booster cushions
are located in the outboard seating positions.
These booster cushions have been specially
designed to help safeguard children in the rear
seat. They should be stowed (folded down into
the seat cushion) when not in use. When using
an integrated booster cushion, the child must
be secured with the vehicle's three-point seat
belt.
Use these booster cushions only with
children whose weight is between:
•
Stage 1: 48 – 80 lbs (22 – 36 kg)
•
Stage 2: 33 – 55 lbs (15 – 25 kg)
and whose height is between:
•
Stage 1: 45 – 55 in. (115 – 140 cm)
•
Stage 2: 37 – 47 in. (95 – 120 cm)
In Canada, Transport Canada's
weight recommendation is 40 – 80 lbs
(18 – 36 kg).
The booster cushions are designed to raise the
child higher, so that the shoulder strap crosses
over the child's collarbone, not over the child's
neck. If using a booster cushion does not resultin proper positioning of the shoulder strap,
then the child should be placed in a properly
secured child restraint (see page 37). The
shoulder belt must never be placed behind the
child's back or under the arm.
G017875
Correct seating position: child's head is below the
head restraint and the shoulder belt is across the
collarbone
G017719
Incorrect seating position: the child's head is
above the head restraint and the shoulder belt is
not across the collarbone
Before driving, check that:
•The integrated two-stage booster cushion
is set in the correct position for according
to the child's height and weight (see the
table below) and is locked in position.

Rear seats
Folding down the rear seat backrests
The three sections of the rear seat backrest can
be folded down in different combinations to
make it easier to transport long objects.
•The left (driver's side) section can be folded
down separately.
•The center section can be folded down
separately.
•The right (passenger's side) section can be
folded down together with the center sec-
tion.
•All three sections can be folded down
together.
Release and lower the center head
restraint if the center and/or right section
of the backrest is to be lowered. The out-
board head restraints fold down automat-
ically.
Pull up the backrest release control on the
respective section(s) and fold the sec-
tion(s) down.
NOTE
It may be necessary to move the front seats
forward or put their backrests in a more
upright position before folding down the
rear seat backrests.
WARNING
•When the backrest(s) are returned to the
upright position, check that it is properly
locked in place. The red indicators
should not be visible.
•Return the outboard head restraints to
the upright position.
•Long loads should always be securely
anchored to help avoid injury in the
event of a sudden stop.
•Always turn the engine off and apply the
parking brake when loading/unloading
the vehicle.
•Place the transmission in the Park (P)
position to help prevent inadvertent
movement of the gear selector.
•On hot days, the temperature in the
vehicle interior can rise very quickly.
Exposure of people to these high tem-
peratures for even a short period of time
can cause heat-related injury or death.
Small children are particularly at risk.
