Crash event data
This vehicle is equipped with an event datarecorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR isto record, in certain crash or near crash-like sit-uations, such as an air bag deployment or hittinga road obstacle, data that will assist in under-standing how a vehicle's systems performed.The EDR is designed to record data related tovehicle dynamics and safety systems for a shortperiod of time, typically 30 seconds or less. TheEDR in this vehicle is designed to record suchdata as:
•How various systems in your vehicle wereoperating;
•Whether or not the driver and passengersafety belts were buckled/fastened;
•How far (if at all) the driver was depressingthe accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
•How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understand-ing of the circumstances in which crashes andinjuries occur.
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if anon-trivial crash situation occurs; no data arerecorded by the EDR under normal driving condi-tions and the EDR never registers who is drivingthe vehicle or the location of a crash or a nearcrash-like situation. However, other parties, suchas law enforcement, could combine the EDR datawith the type of personally identifying data rou-
tinely acquired during a crash investigation. Toread data recorded by an EDR, special equipmentis required, and access to the vehicle or the EDRis needed.
Furthermore, your vehicle is equipped with anumber of computers whose task is to continu-ously control and monitor the vehicle

Volvo's concern for safety
Our concern for safety dates back to 1927 whenthe first Volvo rolled off the production line.Three-point seat belts (a Volvo invention), safetycages, and energy-absorbing impact zones weredesigned into Volvo vehicles long before it wasfashionable or required by government regulation.
We will not compromise our commitment tosafety. We continue to seek out new safety fea-tures and to refine those already in our vehicles.You can help. We would appreciate hearing yoursuggestions about improving automobile safety.We also want to know if you ever have a safetyconcern with your vehicle.

Safety during pregnancy
The seat belt should always be worn duringpregnancy. However, it is crucial that it be worncorrectly.
The diagonal section should wrap over the shoul-der then be routed between the breasts and tothe side of the belly. The lap section should layflat over the thighs and as low as possible underthe belly. It must never be allowed to ride upward.Remove all slack from the belt and ensure that itfits close to the body without any twists.
As a pregnancy progresses, pregnant driversshould adjust their seats and steering wheel suchthat they can easily maintain control of the vehi-cle as they drive (which means they must be ableto easily operate the foot pedals and steeringwheel). Within this context, they should strive toposition the seat with as large a distance as pos-sible between their belly and the steering wheel.

Whiplash protection system
The Whiplash protection system (WHIPS) con-sists of specially designed hinges and bracketson the front seat backrests designed to helpabsorb some of the energy generated in a colli-sion from the rear (when the vehicle is rear-ended).

Function
In the event of certain rear-end collisions, thehinges and brackets of the front seat backrestsare designed to change position slightly to allowthe backrest/head restraint to help support theoccupant's head before moving slightly rearward.This movement helps absorb some of the forcesthat could result in whiplash.

WARNING
•The WHIPS system is designed to sup-plement the other safety systems in yourvehicle. For this system to function prop-erly, the three-point seat belt must beworn. Please be aware that no systemcan prevent all possible injuries that mayoccur in an accident.
•The WHIPS system is designed to func-tion in certain collisions from the rear,depending on the crash severity, angleand speed.
WARNING
•Occupants in the front seats must neversit out of position. The occupant's backmust be as upright as comfort allows andbe against the seat back with the seatbelt properly fastened.
•If your vehicle has been involved in a rear-end collision, the front seat backrestsmust be inspected by a trained and quali-fied Volvo service technician, even if theseats appear to be undamaged. Certaincomponents in the WHIPS system mayneed to be replaced.
•Do not attempt to service any componentin the WHIPS system yourself.

WARNING
•Boxes, suitcases, etc. wedged behind thefront seats could impede the function ofthe Whiplash Protection System.
•If the rear seat backrests are foldeddown, cargo must be secured to preventit from sliding forward against the frontseat backrests in the event of a collisionfrom the rear. This could interfere withthe action of the Whiplash ProtectionSystem.
