Canadian market only:
This vehicle is equipped with an “Event DataRecorder” (EDR). The main purpose of the EDRis to register and record data in traffic accidentsor accident-like situations, e.g. if an airbagdeploys or if the vehicle hits an obstacle in theroad. This data is recorded in order to help under-stand how the vehicle's systems perform in thesetypes of situations. The EDR is designed torecord data related to vehicle dynamics andsafety systems for a short period of time, usually30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to recorddata in traffic accidents or accident-like situationssuch as:
How the various systems in the vehicle per-formed;
Whether the driver and passenger seat beltswere tightened/buckled;
The driver's use of the accelerator/brakepedal;
How fast the vehicle was moving.
This data can help provide a better understandingof the circumstances in which traffic accidentsand injuries occur. The EDR records data only if anon-trivial accident situation occurs. EDR doesnot record any data during normal driving condi-tions. The system also never registers data onwho is driving the vehicle or the geographicallocation of the accident or near-accident. How-
ever, other parties, such as law enforcement,could combine the EDR data with the type of per-sonally identifiable information that is routinelyacquired during an accident investigation. Specialequipment and access to either the vehicle or theEDR is required to read this recorded data.
In addition to the EDR, the vehicle is equippedwith a number of computers that continuouslycontrol and monitor the vehicle's performance.These computers may record data during normaldriving conditions, particularly if they detect afault relating to the vehicle's operation and func-tionality or upon activation of the vehicle's activedriver support functions (e.g. City Safety or theauto-brake function).
Some of this recorded data is required by techni-cians performing service and maintenance inorder to diagnose and rectify any faults that mayhave occurred in the vehicle. The recorded infor-mation is also needed to enable Volvo to fulfilllegal and other regulatory requirements. Informa-tion registered in the vehicle is stored in its com-puters until the vehicle is serviced or repaired.
In addition to the above, the recorded informationmay be used in aggregated form for research andproduct development purposes in order to contin-uously improve the safety and quality of Volvovehicles.
Volvo will not provide this information to any thirdparties without the vehicle owner's consent. How-ever, national legislation and regulations may
require Volvo to disclose this type of informationto law enforcement or other authorities that canclaim a legal right to the information. Specialtechnical equipment, which Volvo and workshopsthat have entered agreements with Volvo haveaccess to, is required to read and interpret therecorded data. Volvo is responsible for ensuringthat information provided to Volvo in conjunctionwith service and maintenance is stored and han-dled securely and in compliance with applicablelegal requirements. For more information, pleasecontact a Volvo retailer.

Safety
The vehicle is equipped with a number of safetysystems that work together to help protect thevehicle's driver and passengers in the event ofan accident.
The vehicle is equipped with a number of sensorsthat may react in the event of an accident andactivate different safety systems, such as the air-bag system and seat belt tensioners. Dependingon the specific conditions of the accident, e.g.collisions at certain angles, overturning or swerv-ing, the systems react differently to help providethe best protection.
There are also mechanical safety systems suchas the Whiplash Protection System. The vehicleis also built so that a large part of the force of acollision is distributed to the vehicle's members,pillars, floor, roof and other parts of the body.
After an accident, the vehicle's safety mode maybe activated if any important function in the vehi-cle has been damaged.

Warning symbol in the instrument panel
The warning symbol in the instrumentpanel illuminates when the vehicle'selectrical system is in ignition mode II.The symbol will go out after approx. 6seconds if no faults are detected in the vehicle'ssafety systems.
WARNING
If the warning symbol remains illuminated orswitches on while driving and the messageSRS airbag Service urgent Drive toworkshop is displayed in the instrumentpanel, this indicates that something in thesafety system is not functioning properly.Volvo recommends contacting an authorizedVolvo workshop for repairs as soon as possi-ble.

WARNING
Never attempt to alter or repair any of thevehicle's safety systems yourself. Incorrectlyperformed repairs to any system could impairfunction and lead to serious injury. Volvo rec-ommends contacting an authorized Volvoworkshop.
If this dedicated warning symbol is notfunctioning, the general warning sym-bol will illuminate instead and the samemessage will be displayed in the instru-ment panel.

WARNING
Never use a seat belt for more than oneoccupant. Never wear the shoulder portion ofthe belt under the arm, behind the back orotherwise out of position. Such use couldcause injury in the event of an accident. Asseat belts lose much of their strength whenexposed to violent stretching, they should bereplaced after any collision, even if theyappear to be undamaged.

WARNING
Do not use clips or fasten the belts aroundhooks or other parts of the interior. This willprevent the seat belt from fitting properly.

WARNING
Never damage the seat belts and never insertany foreign objects into the belt buckle. Thismay cause the seat belts and belt buckles tomalfunction in a collision. There is a risk ofserious injury.

Unbuckling seat belts
1. Press the red button on the seat belt recep-tacle and make sure the seat belt retractsfully into the retractor slot.
2. If it does not fully retract, guide the belt man-ually into the slot and make sure it does nothang loose.

Seat belt tensioners
The vehicle is equipped with standard and elec-tric* seat belt tensioners that can help tensionthe seat belt in a critical situation or collision.

Standard seat belt tensioners
All seat belts are equipped with a standard seatbelt tensioner.
In a collision of sufficiently violent force, the seatbelt tensioners will tension the seat belts in orderto more effectively restrain the occupants.

Electric seat belt tensioners *
The driver's and front passenger's seat belts areequipped with electric seat belt tensioners.
The seat belt tensioners interact and can be acti-vated in conjunction with the City Safety andRear Collision Warning driver support systems. Incritical situations, such as if the vehicle brakessuddenly, begins to skid or runs off the road (e.gif the vehicle rolls into a ditch, lifts off the groundor hits an obstacle in the road), or if there is a riskof collision, the seat belts can be pulled taut bythe seat belt tensioner's electric motor.
The electric seat belt tensioner helps to positionthe occupant more effectively in the seat, whichreduces the risk of the occupant striking the inte-rior of the passenger compartment and improvesthe effect of other safety systems such as theairbags.

WARNING
If your vehicle has become water-damaged inany way (e.g., soaked floor mats/standingwater on the floor of the vehicle), do notattempt to start the engine. This may causeairbag deployment, which could result in seri-ous injury. Volvo recommends towing thevehicle directly to an authorized Volvo work-shop.
Before attempting to tow the vehicle:
1.Switch off the ignition for at least 10minutes and disconnect the battery.
2. Follow the instructions for manually over-riding the shiftlock system.

Deployed airbags
WARNING
If any of the airbags have deployed:
Do not attempt to drive the vehicle. Haveit towed to an authorized workshop.
If necessary, seek medical attention.

Driver/passenger-side airbags
As a supplement to the seat belts, the vehicle isequipped with driver and passenger side frontairbags.
Driver/passenger side front airbags.
In a frontal collision, the airbags help protect thedriver's and passenger's head, neck, face andchest and the driver's knees and legs.
A collision of a sufficiently violent force will trig-ger the sensors and one or more airbags willinflate. The airbag helps cushion the initial impactof the collision for the passenger. The airbagdeflates when compressed by the collision. Asmall amount of powder will also be releasedfrom the airbag. This may appear to be smokeand is normal. The entire process, from inflationto deflation of the airbag, occurs within tenths ofa second.
NOTE
The sensors react differently depending onthe circumstances of the accident andwhether or not the seat belt is used. Thisapplies to all belt positions.
There may therefore be accident situations inwhich only one (or none) of the airbags aredeployed. The sensors monitor the impact ofthe collision and react accordingly to deployone, several or no airbags.

WARNING
The seat belt and the airbag work together. Ifthe seat belt is not used or is used incorrectly,the airbag may not provide the intended pro-tection in a collision.
To help prevent injury in the event the airbagis deployed, passengers should sit as uprightas possible, with their feet on the floor andtheir backs against the seat backrest.

WARNING
Volvo recommends contacting an authorizedVolvo workshop for repairs. Incorrectly per-formed repairs to the airbag system couldimpair function and lead to serious injury.
