NOTE
•Deployment of front airbags occurs only one time during an accident. In acollision where deployment occurs,the airbags and seat belt pretensionersactivate. Some noise occurs and asmall amount of powder is released.The release of the powder may appearas smoke-like matter. This is a normalcharacteristic and does not indicatefire.
• Volvo's front airbags use special sen-sors that are integrated with the frontseat buckles. The point at which theairbag deploys is determined bywhether or not the seat belt is beingused, as well as the severity of the col-lision.
• Collisions can occur where only one ofthe airbags deploys. If the impact isless severe, but severe enough topresent a clear injury risk, the airbagsare triggered at partial capacity. If theimpact is more severe, the airbags aretriggered at full capacity.

WARNING
•Children must never be allowed in the front passenger's seat.
• Occupants in the front passenger'sseat must never sit on the edge of theseat, sit leaning toward the instrumentpanel or otherwise sit out of position.
• The occupant's back must be asupright as comfort allows and beagainst the seat back with the seatbelt properly fastened.
• Feet must be on the floor, e.g., not onthe dash, seat or out of the window.

• Inflatable Curtain (IC) (p. 41)
Inflatable Curtain (IC)
The inflatable curtain is designed to help pro- tect the heads of the occupants of the frontseats and the occupant of the outboard rearseating positions in certain side impact colli-sions.
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. In certain side impacts,
both the Inflatable
Curtain (IC) and the Side Impact Airbag Sys- tem (p. 39) (SIPS airbag) will deploy. The ICand the SIPS airbag deploy simultaneously.
NOTE
If the inflatable curtain deploys, it remains inflated for approximately 6 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.
• 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.

Generator not chargingThis symbol comes on during driving if a fault has occurred in the electrical system. Contactan authorized Volvo workshop.
Engine temperatureEngine overheating can result from low oil or coolant levels, towing or hard driving at highheat and altitude, or mechanical malfunction.Engine overheating will be signaled with textand a red warning triangle in the middle of theinstrument display. The exact text will dependon the degree of overheating. It may range from
High engine temp Reduce speed toHigh engine temp Stop engine. If appropri-
ate, other messages, such as Coolant level
low, Stop safely will also be displayed. If
your engine does overheat so that you must stop the engine, always allow the engine tocool before attempting to check oil and cool-ant levels. See Engine compartment – coolant (p. 335) for more information.
Fault in brake systemIf this symbol lights, the brake fluid level may be too low. Stop the vehicle in a safe placeand check the level in the brake fluid reser-voir, see Engine compartment – brake fluid(p. 336). If the level in the reservoir is belowMIN , the vehicle should be transported to an
authorized Volvo workshop to have the brakesystem checked. If the
and symbols come on
at the same time, there may be a fault in the brake force distribution system.
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the engine.
2. Restart the engine.
• If both symbols extinguish, continue driv- ing.
• If the symbols remain on, check the levelin the brake fluid reservoir, see Enginecompartment – brake fluid (p. 336). If thebrake fluid level is normal but the sym-bols are still lit, the vehicle can be driven,with great care, to an authorized Volvoworkshop to have the brake systemchecked.
• If the level in the reservoir is below
MIN,
the vehicle should be transported to anauthorized Volvo workshop to have thebrake system checked.WARNING
• If the fluid level is below the
MIN mark
in the reservoir or if a warning mes- sage is displayed in the text window:DO NOT DRIVE . Have the vehicle
towed to a trained and qualified Volvoservice technician and have the brakesystem inspected.
• If the
and symbols
are on at the same time, there is a risk of reduced vehicle stability.
Warning symbolThe red warning symbol lights up to indicate a problem related to safety and/or drivability.A message will also appear in the instrumentpanel. The symbol remains visible until thefault has been rectified but the text messagecan be cleared with the OK button, see Infor-
mation display – menu controls (p. 111). Thewarning symbol can also come on in conjunc-tion with other symbols. Action:
