Seat Belts: “Something We Believe In”
Seat belts are an integral part of the safety system
engineered into each Volvo.
Despite our strongest recommendations, and
your best intentions, not wearing a seat belt is like
believing “it’ll never happen to me!”
Volvo urges you and all adult occupants of your
car to properly wear seat belts in all seating
positions, and ensure that children are properly
restrained in the rear seats only, using an infant
car seat or booster seat determined by age,
weight and height.
Fact: In every state/province, some type of child
restraint legislation has been passed. Additionally,
most states/provinces have already made it
mandatory for occupants of a car to use seat belts.
So, urging you to “buckle up” is not just our
recommendation – it’s the law! The few seconds
it takes to buckle up may one day allow you to say,
“It’s a good thing I was wearing my seat belt.”
Instructions for proper seat belt usage can be
found in your Owner’s Manual.
3 In the U.S., some states have mandated alternate warranty coverage for seat belts only. Contact your Volvo retailer for details of local requirements.
