Inflatable Curtain (IC) 01
32
General information
This system consists of inflatable curtains located along the sides of the roof liners,stretching from the center of both front sidewindows to the rear edge of the rear sidedoor windows. It is designed to help protectthe heads of the occupants of the front seatsand the occupant of the outboard rear seat-ing positions in certain side impact collisions. In certain side impacts, both the Inflatable
Curtain (IC) and the Side Impact Airbag Sys- tem (SIPS airbag) will deploy. The IC and theSIPS airbag deploy simultaneously.
NOTE
If the inflatable curtain deploys, it remains inflated for approximately 3 seconds.
WARNING
• The IC system is a supplement to the Side Impact Protection System. It isnot designed to deploy during colli-sions from the rear of the vehicle or inrollover situations.
• Never try to open or repair any compo-nents of the IC system. This should bedone only by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.
• Never hang heavy items from the ceil-ing handles. This could impededeployment of the Inflatable Curtain.
• The cargo area and rear seat shouldnot be loaded to a level higher than2 in. (5 cm) below the upper edge ofthe rear side windows. Objects placedhigher than this level could impede thefunction of the Inflatable Curtain.
WARNING
In order for the IC to provide its best pro- tection, both front seat occupants andboth outboard rear seat occupants shouldsit in an upright position with the seat beltproperly fastened; adults using the seatbelt and children using the proper childrestraint system. Only adults should sit inthe front seats. Children must never beallowed in the front passenger seat, seepage 38 for guidelines. Failure to followthese instructions can result in injury to thevehicle occupants in an accident.
