Whiplash Protection System Whiplash Protection System (WHIPS) is a pro- tection against whiplash injuries. The systemconsists of energy-absorbing backrests and seatcushions, and specially designed head restraintsin the front seats.
WHIPS is deployed in the event of a rear-end collision, where the angle and speed of the colli-sion and the nature of the colliding vehicle allhave an influence. When WHIPS is deployed, the front seat back- rests are lowered backward and the seat cush-ions move downward to change the seating posi-tion of the driver and front seat passenger. Thisreduces the risk of whiplash injury.
WARNING
WHIPS is a supplement to the seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.
WARNING
Never modify or repair the seat or WHIPS yourself. Volvo recommends that an author-ised Volvo workshop should be contacted. If the front seats have been subjected to a major load, such as in conjunction with a colli-sion, the seats must be replaced. Some of theseats' protective properties may have beenlost even if they do not appear damaged.
Do not leave any objects on the floor behind or under the front seats or in the rear seat that may preventWHIPS from functioning.
WARNING
Do not squeeze rigid objects between the rear seat cushion and the front seat's back-rest.
WARNING
If a rear seat backrest is folded down, the cor- responding front seat must be moved forwardso that it does not make contact with thefolded backrest.
Seating positionFor optimum protection from WHIPS the driver and passenger must have the correct seatingposition and make sure that the system's func-tion is not obstructed.
