WARNING
Do not squeeze box-like cargo between the rear seat cushion and the front seat back-rest. If the rear seat backrests are folded down, cargo must be secured to prevent it fromsliding forward against the front seat back-rests in the event of a collision.
WARNING
If a rear seat backrest is folded down or if a rear-facing child restraint is being used inthe rear seat, the seat in front must bemoved forward so that it does not comeinto contact with the backrest or childrestraint.
Seating positionFor WHIPS to provide good protection, the driver and passenger must be seated correctlyand the system's function must not be impe-ded in any way. Set the front seat to the correct seating posi- tion before starting to drive. The driver and the front seat passenger should sit in the center of the seat with their heads asclose as possible to the head restraints.

NOTE
The sensors react differently depending on the circumstances of the accident andwhether or not the seat belt is used. Thisapplies to all belt positions. There may therefore be accident situations in which only one (or none) of the airbagsare deployed. The sensors monitor theimpact of the collision and react accord-ingly to deploy one, several or no airbags.
WARNING
The seat belt and the airbag work together. If the seat belt is not used or is used incor-rectly, the airbag may not provide theintended protection in a collision. To help prevent injury in the event the air- bag is deployed, passengers should sit asupright as possible, with their feet on thefloor and their backs against the seat back-rest.
WARNING
Volvo recommends contacting an author- ized Volvo workshop for repairs. Incorrectlyperformed repairs to the airbag systemcould impair function and lead to seriousinjury.
The front airbag systemThe front airbag system includes gas genera- tors surrounded by the airbags, and decelera-tion sensors that activate the gas generators,causing the airbags to be inflated with nitro-gen gas. As the movement of the seats' occupants compresses the airbags, some of the gas isexpelled at a controlled rate to provide bettercushioning. The belt tensioners minimize slackin the seat belts and are activated for occu-pants wearing their seat belts. The entire proc-ess, from inflation to deflation of the airbag,occurs within tenths of a second. The location of the front airbags is indicated by SRS AIRBAG embossed on the steering
wheel pad and above the glove compartment,and by decals on both sun visors and on thefront and far right side of the dash. The driver's side front airbag is folded and
located in the steering wheel hub.The knee airbag is folded on the underside of
the dashboard on the driver's side. The text AIRBAG is embossed on the panel.
The passenger's side front airbag is folded
behind a panel located above the glove com-partment.WARNING
The airbags in the vehicle are designed to be a SUPPLEMENT to-not areplacement for-the three-point seatbelts. For maximum protection, wearseat belts at all times. Be aware that nosystem can prevent all possible injuriesthat may occur in an accident.
Never drive with your hands on thesteering wheel pad/airbag housing.
The front airbags are designed to helpprevent serious injury. Deploymentoccurs very quickly and with considera-ble force. During normal deploymentand depending on variables such asseating position, one may experienceabrasions, bruises, swellings, or otherinjuries as a result of deployment ofone or both of the airbags.
When installing any accessory equip-ment, make sure that the front airbagsystem is not damaged. Any interfer-ence in the system could cause mal-function.

The rearview mirror instead has two sensors - one pointing forward and one pointing rear-ward - which work together to identify andeliminate glare. The forward-pointing sensormonitors ambient light, while the rearward-pointing sensor monitors light from the head-lights of following vehicles. For the door mirrors to be equipped with auto- dim, the rearview mirror must also be equip-ped with auto-dim.
NOTE
If the sensors are obstructed by e.g. a parking permit, transponder, sunshade orobjects on the seats or in the cargo com-partment in a way that prevents light fromreaching the sensors, the auto-dim func-tion in the door and rearview mirrors willbe reduced.
