8-inch instrument panel.
The instrument panel displays information
such as speed, incoming phone calls or thetrack currently playing. It is controlled usingthe steering wheel keypads.
Center display
Many of the vehicle's main functions are con- trolled from the center display, a touchscreenthat reacts to taps and other gestures. Thisminimizes the number of physical buttons andcontrols needed in the vehicle. The screen canalso be operated while wearing gloves. The center display is used to control e.g. the climate and entertainment systems and to adjust the power seats *. The information pre-
sented in the center display can be handled by the driver or by someone else in the vehicle.
Voice control system
The voice control system ena- bles the driver to control cer-tain vehicle functions withouttaking their hands off thewheel. The system canunderstand natural speech.Use voice commands to e.g.
play a song, make a phone call, increase thetemperature in the passenger compartment orhave a text message read aloud.

Safety during pregnancy
It is important that seat belts are worn cor- rectly during pregnancy and that pregnantdrivers adjust their seating position accord-ingly.
Seat belt
The seat belt should fit closely against the shoulder, with the diagonal section betweenthe breasts and to the side of the stomach. The lap section of the seat belt should lie flat over the thighs and as far as possible underthe stomach. Never let it ride upward. Removeunnecessary slack and make sure the seat beltfits as close as possible to the body. Makesure there are no twists in the seat belt.
Seating positionAs pregnancy progresses, pregnant driversshould adjust the seat and steering wheel to a position that allows them to retain full controlof the vehicle (which means they should beable to easily reach the steering wheel andfoot pedals). Try to maintain as much distanceas possible between the stomach and thesteering wheel.

Occupant safety
Safety is Volvo's cornerstone.
Volvo's concern for safetyOur concern for safety dates back to 1927 when the first Volvo rolled off the productionline. Three-point seat belts (a Volvo invention),safety cages, and energy-absorbing impactzones were designed into Volvo vehicles longbefore it was fashionable or required by gov-ernment regulation. We will not compromise our commitment to safety. We continue to seek out new safetyfeatures and to refine those already in ourvehicles. You can help. We would appreciatehearing your suggestions about improvingautomobile safety. We also want to know ifyou ever have a safety concern with your vehi-cle. Call us in the U.S. at: 1-800-458-1552 orin Canada at: 1-800-663-8255.

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.
Front airbag deployment
The front airbags are designed to deployduring certain frontal or front-angular colli-sions, impacts, or decelerations, depend-ing on the crash severity, angle, speed andobject impacted. The airbags may also deploy in certain non-frontal collisionswhere rapid deceleration occurs.
The airbag system's sensors, which triggerthe front airbags, are designed to deter-mine if the collision is powerful enough toactivate the belt tensioners and/or the air-bags.
However, not all frontal collisions activate thefront airbags. If the collision involves a nonrigid object (e.g., a snow drift or bush), or a rigid, fixedobject at a low speed, the front airbagswill not necessarily deploy.
Front airbags do not normally deploy in aside impact collision, in a collision fromthe rear or in a rollover situation.
The amount of damage to the bodyworkdoes not reliably indicate if the airbagsshould have deployed or not.
NOTE
Deployment of front airbags occurs only one time during an accident. In acollision where deployment occurs, theairbags and seat belt tensioners acti-vate. Some noise occurs and a smallamount of powder is released. Therelease of the powder may appear assmoke-like matter. This is a normalcharacteristic and does not indicatefire.
Volvo's front airbags use special sen-sors that are integrated with the frontseat buckles. The point at which theairbag deploys is determined bywhether or not the seat belt is beingused, as well as the severity of the col-lision.
Collisions can occur where only one ofthe airbags deploys. If the impact isless severe, but severe enough to pres-ent a clear injury risk, the airbags aretriggered at partial capacity. If theimpact is more severe, the airbags aretriggered at full capacity.
