Pedestrian Protection System
The Pedestrian Protection System (PPS) is a system which, in certain frontal collisions, con-tributes to mitigating a pedestrian's impact withthe car.
In certain frontal collisions with a pedestrian, the sensors in the front of the car react and the sys-tem is activated. When PPS is activated, the following occur:
• The rear section of the bonnet is raised.
• An automatic alarm is sent via Volvo On Call
*.
The sensors are active at a speed of approx. 25-50 km/h (15-30 mph). The sensors are designed to detect a collision with an object that has similar properties to thoseof the human leg.
NOTE
There may be objects in the traffic environ- ment that prompt a signal to the sensors thatis similar to a collision with a pedestrian. It ispossible that the system will be activated inthe event of a collision with such an object.
WARNING
Do not fit any accessories or change anything in the front. Incorrect intervention at the frontmay cause incorrect function in the systemand lead to serious injury and damage to thecar. Volvo recommends that genuine wiper arms are used and that only genuine parts are usedfor them.
WARNING
Volvo recommends contacting an authorised Volvo workshop in the event of any damage tothe front of the car in order to ensure that thesystem is intact.

Inflatable curtain The inflatable curtain, Inflatable Curtain (IC), helps to prevent the driver and passengers fromstriking their heads on the inside of the car dur-ing a collision.
The inflatable curtain is mounted along both sides of the headlining and helps protect thedriver and outer seat passengers of the car. The panels are labelled with IC AIRBAG.
A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the inflatable curtain is inflated.
WARNING
Never hang or attach heavy items onto the handles in the roof. The hooks are onlydesigned for light coats and jackets (not forsolid objects such as umbrellas). Do not screw or install anything onto the car's headlining, door pillars or side panels. Thiscould compromise the intended protection.Volvo recommends only using Volvo genuineparts that are approved for fitting within theseareas.
WARNING
Leave 10 cm space between the load and the side windows if the car is loaded to above thetop edge of the door windows. Otherwise, theintended protection of the inflatable curtain,which is concealed in the headlining, may becompromised.
WARNING
The inflatable curtain is a supplement to the seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.
