Occupant Classification System
function
OCS works in combination with sensors in the
front passenger seat. The sensors are
intended to detect the presence, and classifi-
cation of, an occupant sitting correctly and
determine whether the front passenger airbag
should be enabled (able to be deployed) or
disabled (cannot be deployed).
The OCS uses an indicator light with the text
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF
, which will illu-
minate and stay on to remind you that the
passenger's side front airbag is disabled. The
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF
indicator light is
located in the ceiling console near the bracket
for the rearview mirror.
Always pay attention that the status of the
indicator light shows the correct classification
both before and while driving when the front
passenger seat is occupied.
When the ignition is switched on, the OCS
indicator light will illuminate for several
seconds while the system performs a self-
diagnostic test. The indicator light will then
go out or remain illuminated, depending on
the classification of the passenger in the
front passenger seat.
If a malfunction is detected in the
system, the OCS indicator light will
remain illuminated and the SRS
warning symbol will be shown in the
instrument panel along with a text message.
WARNING
If a fault in the system is detected and indi-
cated as described, be aware that the pas-
senger's side front airbag will not deploy in
the event of a collision. If this occurs, have
the airbag system and Occupant Classifi-
cation System checked by a workshop as
soon as possible. Volvo recommends con-
tacting an authorized Volvo workshop.
Classification of adult
To help ensure accurate classification when a
person of adult size is sitting in the front pas-
senger seat, the passenger must:
•
be wearing their seat belt
•
sit normally in the seat, in the center of the
seat cushion
•
sit upright in the seat with their shoulders
against the backrest
•
have their legs comfortably extended with
their feet on the floor.
Correct seating position.
Example of incorrect seating position - the passenger
must not have slid forward on the seat cushion.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAFETY
}}
61
Example of incorrect seating position - the passenger
must be seated with their feet on the floor.
Example of incorrect seating position - the passenger
must not fold the backrest to a lying position.
Remember the following when an adult sits in
the front passenger seat:
•
The passenger must never get up from the
seat cushion using the armrest in the door
or center console, by pushing their feet
against the floor or by pushing against the
backrest.
•
The passenger must never sit on the side
of the seat cushion, slide forward on the
seat cushion or fold the backrest to a lying
position.
•
The passenger must never wear wet or
thick clothing, e.g. ski wear or padded gar-
ments.
•
Never place any objects between the pas-
senger and the seat cushion, e.g. pillows,
heating blankets or ordinary blankets, seat
liners or mats.
•
Never place a radio transmitter (e.g. hunt-
ing radio or walkie-talkie) or device that is
being charged (e.g. cellular phone, tablet
or computer) on or under the seat cushion.
Never let anyone sitting on the passenger
seat use a radio transmitter or device that
is being charged.
WARNING
Failure to follow the above instructions
could adversely affect the Occupant Classi-
fication System functions and result in
death or serious injury.
If a person of adult size is sitting in the front
passenger's seat, but the OCS indicator lamp
is on, it is possible that the person isn't sitting
properly in the seat.
If this occurs, turn off the vehicle and ask the
person to follow the above instructions for
accurate classification. Restart the vehicle and
have the person remain in this position for
about two minutes. This will allow the system
to detect that person and enable the passeng-
er's frontal airbag.
If the OCS indicator lamp remains on even
after this, the person should be advised to ride
in the rear seat.
This may indicate restrictions in the OCS clas-
sification ability, e.g. that the person is too
light to be classified as an adult. It does not
need to indicate an OCS error.
Classification of child
Volvo follows NHTSA's recommendations and
recommends that ALL children up to and
including 12 years of age sit in the rear seat.
This is strongly recommended for children in
rear-facing child seats.
If a child in a child restraint is placed in the
front passenger seat, the child restraint must
be installed according to the manufacturer's
instructions to help ensure accurate classifica-
tion.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Remember the following if a child in a child
seat sits in the front passenger seat:
•
Never place any items or accessories on
the passenger seat, between the child
seat and the seat cushion or near to the
seat cushion.
•
Never place a radio transmitter (e.g. hunt-
ing radio or walkie-talkie) or device that is
being charged (e.g. cellular phone, tablet
or computer) on the seat cushion. Never
let anyone sitting on the passenger seat
use a radio transmitter or device that is
being charged.
•
Never place wet clothing or fluids on the
passenger seat.
•
Always correctly position the child seat so
that the entire lower section of the child
seat rests against the seat cushion.
•
Always place a front-facing child seat as
far back as possible against the seat back.
WARNING
Failure to follow the above instructions
could adversely affect the Occupant Classi-
fication System functions and result in
death or serious injury.

Side airbags
The side airbags, on the driver's and passen-
ger sides, protect the chest and hip in a colli-
sion.
The side airbags are located in the front seats'
outer backrest frames and help protect the
driver and front seat passenger.
A collision of a sufficiently violent force will
trigger the sensors and one or more side air-
bags will inflate. The side airbags inflate
between the seat occupant and the door panel
to help cushion the initial impact of the colli-
sion. The airbag deflates when compressed by
the collision. The side airbags are normally
only deployed on the side of the vehicle
impacted by the collision.
WARNING
Volvo recommends contacting an author-
ized Volvo workshop for repairs. Incorrectly
performed repairs to the side airbag sys-
tem could impair function and lead to seri-
ous injury.
WARNING
Do not place any objects in the area
between the outer edges of the seats and
the door panels, as this could impair the
function of the side airbags.
Volvo recommends only using seat covers
approved by Volvo. Other seat covers could
prevent the side airbags from functioning
properly.
WARNING
The side airbag is a supplement to the seat
belt. Always wear your seat belt.

Inflatable curtain
The inflatable curtain, Inflatable Curtain (IC),
helps to prevent the driver and passengers
from striking their heads on the inside of the
vehicle during a collision.
The inflatable curtains are installed along both
sides of the inside of the roof and help protect
occupants in the vehicle's outer seats.
IC

intended for lightweight garments (not for
hard objects such as umbrellas).
Never screw or mount anything to the vehi-
cle's headlining, door pillars or side panels.
This could impair the intended protective
properties. Volvo recommends only using
Volvo original parts that are approved for
placement in these areas.
WARNING
If objects are loaded higher than the upper
edge of the side windows, leave a 10 cm
(4 in.) space between the objects and the
window. Objects placed closer to this
could impede the function of the inflatable
curtain concealed inside the headlining.
WARNING
The inflatable curtain is a supplement to
the seat belt. Always wear your seat belt.

Child safety
Children should always be seated safely
when traveling in the vehicle.
General information
Volvo recommends the proper use of restraint
systems for all occupants including children.
Remember that, regardless of age and size, a
child should always be properly restrained in a
vehicle.
Your vehicle is also equipped with ISOFIX/
LATCH attachments, which make it more con-
venient to install child seats.
Some restraint systems for children are
designed to be secured in the vehicle by lap
belts or the lap portion of a lap-shoulder belt.
Such child restraint systems can help protect
children in vehicles in the event of an accident
only if they are used properly. However, chil-
dren could be endangered in a crash if the
child restraints are not properly secured in the
vehicle. Failure to follow the installation
instructions for your child restraint can result
in your child striking the vehicle's interior in a
sudden stop.
Holding a child in your arms is NOT a suitable
substitute for a child restraint system. In an
accident, a child held in a person's arms can
be crushed between the vehicle's interior and
an unrestrained person. The child could also
be injured by striking the interior, or by being
ejected from the vehicle during a sudden
maneuver or impact. The same can also hap-
pen if the infant or child rides unrestrained on
the seat. Other occupants should also be
properly restrained to help reduce the chance
of injuring or increasing the injury of a child.
All states and provinces have legislation gov-
erning how and where children should be car-
ried in a vehicle. Find out the regulations exist-
ing in your state or province. Recent accident
statistics have shown that children are safer in
rear seating positions than front seating posi-
tions when properly restrained. A child
restraint system can help protect a child in a
vehicle. Here's what to look for when selecting
a child restraint system:
It should have a label certifying that it meets
applicable Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards (FMVSS 213) - or in Canada,
CMVSS 213.
Make sure the child restraint system is
approved for the child's height, weight and
development - the label required by the stand-
ard or regulation, or instructions for infant
restraints, typically provide this information.
In using any child restraint system, we urge
you to carefully look over the instructions that
are provided with the restraint. Be sure you
understand them and can use the device prop-
erly and safely in this vehicle. A misused child
restraint system can result in increased inju-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ries for both the infant or child and other occu-
pants in the vehicle.
When a child has outgrown the child safety
seat, you should use the rear seat with the
standard seat belt fastened. The best way to
help protect the child here is to place the child
on a cushion so that the seat belt is properly
located on the hips. Legislation in your state or
province may mandate the use of a child seat
or cushion in combination with the seat belt,
depending on the child's age and/or size.
Please check local regulations.
A specially designed and tested booster cush-
ion and backrest can be obtained from your
Volvo retailer. See also the article "Integrated
booster cushion."
WARNING
•
Do not use child safety seats or child
booster cushions/backrests in the front
passenger's seat. We also recommend
that children under 140 cm (4 feet
7 inches) in height who have outgrown
these devices sit in the rear seat with
the seat belt fastened.
•
On hot days, the temperature in the
vehicle interior can rise very quickly.
Exposure to these high temperatures
for even a short period of time can
cause heat-related injury or death.
Small children are particularly at risk.
Never leave children unattended in a
vehicle.
Child seats should always be registered.
Volvo's recommendations
Why does Volvo believe that no child should
sit in the front seat of a vehicle? It's quite sim-
ple really. A front airbag is a very powerful
device designed, by law, to help protect an
adult.
Because of the size of the airbag and its speed
of inflation, a child should never be placed in
the front seat, even if he or she is properly bel-
ted or strapped into a child safety seat. Volvo
has been an innovator in the field of safety
since it was founded. And we have no inten-
tion of resting on our laurels. But we need
your help. Please remember to put your chil-
dren in the back seat, and buckle them up.
WARNING
A child restraint should never be reused if:
•
The vehicle has been involved in a colli-
sion, no matter how minor
•
Its history is unknown
•
It is older than the manufacturer's expi-
ration date
Volvo has some very specific
recommendations
•
Always wear your seat belt.
•
Airbags are a SUPPLEMENTAL safety
device which, when used with a three-
point seat belt can help reduce serious
injuries during certain types of accidents.
Volvo recommends that you do not dis-
connect the airbag system in your vehicle.
•
Volvo strongly recommends that everyone
in the vehicle be properly restrained.
•
Volvo follows NHTSA's recommendations
and recommends that ALL children up to
and including 12 years of age sit in the rear
seat. This is strongly recommended for
children in rear-facing child seats.
•
Drive safely!

Child restraint systems
Infant seat
There are three main types of child restraint
systems: infant seats, convertible seats and
booster cushions. They are classified accord-
ing to the child's age and size.
The child restraint should be secured using a
three-point seat belt, ISOFIX/LATCH anchors
or top tether anchors.
Convertible seat
WARNING
A child seat should never be used in the
front passenger seat of any vehicle with a
front passenger airbag - not even if the
"Passenger airbag off" symbol near the
rear-view mirror is illuminated. If the
severity of an accident were to cause the
airbag to inflate, this could lead to serious
injury or death to a child seated in this
position.

WARNING
Always refer to the child restraint manufac-
turer's instructions for detailed information
on securing the restraint.
WARNING
•
When not in use, keep the child
restraint system secured or remove it
from the passenger compartment to
help prevent it from injuring passen-
gers in the event of a sudden stop or
collision.
•
A small child's head represents a con-
siderable part of its total weight and its
neck is still very weak. Volvo recom-
mends that children up to age 4 travel,
properly restrained, facing rearward. In
addition, Volvo recommends that chil-
dren should ride rearward facing, prop-
erly restrained, as long as possible.
Prolonged installation and use of the child
restraint may damage the vehicle's interior.
Volvo recommends using the kick guard
accessory to help protect the vehicle's
interior.
Automatic Locking Retractor/
Emergency Locking Retractor (ALR/
ELR)
To make child seat installation easier, each
seat belt (except for the driver's belt) is equip-
ped with a locking mechanism to help keep
the seat belt taut.
When attaching the seat belt to a child
seat:
1. Attach the seat belt to the child seat
according to the child seat manufacturer's
instructions.
2. Pull the seat belt out as far as possible.
3. Insert the seat belt latch plate into the
buckle (lock) in the usual way.
4. Release the seat belt and pull it taut
around the child seat.
A sound from the seat belt retractor will be
audible at this time and is normal. The belt will
now be locked in place. This function is auto-
matically disabled when the seat belt is
unlocked and the belt is fully retracted.
WARNING
Do not use child safety seats or child
booster cushions/backrests in the front
passenger's seat. We also recommend that
children who have outgrown these devices
sit in the rear seat with the seat belt prop-
erly fastened.
