Side airbag (SIPS)

In a side impact collision a large proportion of

the collision force is transferred by the SIPS

(Side Impact Protection System) to beams,

pillars, the floor, the roof and other structural

parts of the body. The side airbags at the driv-

er's and front passenger seats protect the

chest area and the hip and are an important

part of the SIPS.

G032949

The SIPS bag system consists of two main

components, side airbag and sensors. The

side airbags are located in the front seat's

backrests.
A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors

and the side airbags are inflated. The airbag

inflates between the occupant and the door

panel and thereby cushions the initial impact.

The airbag deflates when compressed by the

collision. The side airbag is normally only

deployed on the side of the collision.

Driver's seat, left-hand drive.

Front passenger seat, left-hand drive.

WARNING

Volvo recommends that repairs are

only carried out by an authorised Volvo

workshop. Defective work in the SIPS-

bag system could cause malfunction

and result in serious personal injury.

Do not put objects in the area between

the outside of the seat and the door

panel, since this area is required by

the side airbag.

Volvo recommends the use only of car

seat covers approved by Volvo. Other

seat covers may impede the operation

of the side airbags.

Side airbags are a supplement the

seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.

Side airbag (SIPS) - child seat/booster

cushion

The protection provided by the car to children

seated in a child seat or on a booster cushion

is not diminished by the side airbag (p. 36).

Child seat/booster cushion (p. 44) can be

placed on the front passenger seat provided

that the car does not have an activated airbag

(p. 34) on the front passenger side.

General information on child safety

(p. 43)

Inflatable Curtain (IC)

The inflatable curtain helps to prevent the

driver and passengers from striking their

heads on the inside of the car during a colli-

sion.

Inflatable curtain IC (Inflatable Curtain) is part

of the SIPS system (p. 36) and the airbag sys-

tem (p. 31). It is fitted along both sides of the

headlining and helps protect the driver and

passengers in the car's outer seats. A suffi-

ciently violent collision trips the sensors and

the inflatable curtain is inflated.

WARNING

Never hang or attach heavy items onto the

handles in the roof. The hook is only

designed for light clothing (not for solid

objects such as umbrellas for example).
Do not screw or install anything onto the

car's headlining, door pillars or side pan-

els. This could compromise the intended

protection. Volvo recommends that you

only ever use Volvo genuine parts that are

approved for placement in these areas.

WARNING

Do not load the car higher than 50 mm

under the top edge of the windows in the

doors. Otherwise, the intended protection

of the inflatable curtain, which is con-

cealed in the headlining, may be compro-

mised.

WARNING

The inflatable curtain is a supplement to

the seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.

General information on WHIPS

(whiplash protection)

WHIPS (Whiplash Protection System) is a pro-

tection against whiplash injuries. The system

consists of energy absorbing backrests and

specially designed head restraints in the front

seats.

The WHIPS system is actuated by a rear-end

collision, where the angle and speed of the

collision, and the nature of the colliding vehi-

cle all have an influence.

WARNING

The WHIPS system is a supplement to the

seatbelts. Always use a seatbelt.

Seat properties
When the WHIPS system is deployed, the

front seat backrests are lowered backward to

change the seating position of the driver and

front seat passenger. This reduces the risk of

whiplash injury.

WARNING

Never modify or repair the seat or WHIPS

system yourself. Volvo recommends that

you contact an authorised Volvo work-

shop.

WHIPS - child seats

The protection provided by the car to children

seated in a child seat or on a booster cushion

is not diminished by the WHIPS system

(p. 38).

Child seat/booster cushion (p. 44) can be

placed on the front passenger seat provided

that the car does not have an activated airbag

(p. 34) on the front passenger side.

Related information

General information on child safety

(p. 43)

WHIPS - seating position

For optimum protection from the WHIPS sys-

tem (p. 38) the driver and passenger must

have the correct seating position and make

sure that the system's function is not obstruc-

ted.

Seating position
Set the correct seating position in the front

seat (p. 82) before driving starts.
Driver and front seat passenger should sit in

the centre of the seat with as little space as

possible between the head and the head

restraint.

Function

Do not leave any objects on the floor behind the

driver's seat/passenger seat that may prevent the

WHIPS system from functioning.

WARNING

Do not squeeze rigid objects between the

rear seat cushion and the front seat's

backrest. Make sure you do not to

obstruct the function of the WHIPS sys-

tem.

Do not place objects on the rear seat that may

prevent the WHIPS system from functioning.

WARNING

If a rear seat backrest is folded down, the

corresponding front seat must be moved

forward so that it does not make contact

with the folded backrest.

02 Safety

WARNING

If a seat has been subjected to extreme

forces, such as due to a rear-end collision,

the WHIPS system must be checked.

Volvo recommends that it is checked by

an authorised Volvo workshop.
Part of the WHIPS system's protective

capacity may have been lost even if the

seat appears to be undamaged.
Volvo recommends that you contact an

authorised Volvo workshop to have the

system checked even after a minor rear-

end collision.

The bodywork of the car could be greatly deformed in a

collision without airbag deployment. A number of factors

such as the rigidity and weight of the object hit, the speed

of the car, the angle of the collision etc. affects how the

different safety systems of the car are activated.

If the airbags (p. 31) have deployed, the fol-

lowing is recommended:

Recovering the car. Volvo recommends

that you have it conveyed to an author-

ised Volvo workshop. Do not drive with

deployed airbags.

Volvo recommends that you engage an

authorised Volvo workshop to handle the

replacement of components in the car's

safety systems.

Always contact a doctor.

NOTE

The airbags and belt tensioner system are

deployed only once during a collision.

WARNING

The airbag system's control module is

located in the centre console. If the centre

console is drenched with water or other

liquid, disconnect the battery cables. Do

not attempt to start the car since the air-

bags may deploy. Recovering the car.

Volvo recommends that you have it con-

veyed to an authorised Volvo workshop.

WARNING

Never drive with deployed airbags. They

can make steering difficult. Other safety

systems may also be damaged. The

smoke and dust created when the airbags

are deployed can cause skin and eye irrita-

tion/injury after intensive exposure. In case

of irritation, wash with cold water. The

rapid deployment sequence and airbag

fabric may cause friction and skin burns.

General information on safety mode

Safety mode is a protective state that is

enforced when the collision may have dam-

aged any of the car's vital functions, such as

the fuel lines, sensors for one of the safety

systems, or the brake system.

The position of a child in the car and the

choice of equipment are dictated by the

child's weight and size; see Child seats

(p. 44).

NOTE

Regulations regarding the placement of

children in cars vary from country to coun-

try. Check what does apply.

Volvo has child safety equipment (child seats,

booster cushions & attachment devices)

which is designed for your particular car.

Using Volvo's child safety equipment pro-

vides you with optimum conditions for your

child to travel safely in the car. Furthermore,

the child safety equipment fits and is easy to

use.

Child seats - location

Always fit child seats/booster cushions (p. 44)

in the rear seat if the passenger airbag is acti-

vated (p. 34). If a child is sitting on the front

passenger seat then he/she could suffer seri-

ous injury if the airbag deploys.

The warning label for the passenger airbag is

fitted in one of the following two locations in

the car:

Alternative 1: Position of airbag label on passen-

ger side sun visor.

Alternative 2: Position of airbag label on passen-

ger side door pillar. The label becomes visible

when the passenger door is opened.

You may place:

a child seat/booster cushion on the front

passenger seat provided there is no acti-

vated airbag on the front passenger side.

one or more child seats/booster cushions

in the rear seat.

WARNING

Never use a rear-facing child seat on a

seat protected by an activated airbag. Fail-

ure to follow this advice can lead to death

or serious injury to the child.

WARNING

Never place a child in a child seat or on a

booster cushion in the front seat if the air-

bag is activated.
Never allow anybody to stand or sit in front

of the front passenger seat.
No one shorter than 140 cm should ever

sit in the front passenger seat if the airbag

is activated.
Failure to follow the advice given above

can endanger life.

WARNING

Booster cushions/child seats with steel

braces or some other design that could

rest on the seatbelt buckle's opening but-

ton must not be used, as they could cause

the seatbelt buckle to open accidentally.
Do not allow the upper section of the child

seat to rest against the windscreen.

Child seat - two-stage booster seat*

The integrated booster seats in the rear seat

allow children to sit comfortably and safely.

The booster cushions are specially designed

to provide optimum safety. In combination

with the seatbelt (p. 27) they are approved for

children who weigh between 15 and 36 kg

and who are at least 95 cm in height.

G017875

Correct position, the seatbelt is positioned above

the shoulder.

Incorrect position, the head must not be posi-

tioned above the head restraint and the seatbelt

must not be below the shoulder.

Check before driving that:

the integrated two-stage booster seat is

correctly set in accordance with the table

(p. 51) and in locked position

the seatbelt is in contact with the child's

body and is not slack or twisted

the seatbelt does not lie across the

child's throat or below the shoulder (see

preceding illustrations)

the lap section of the seatbelt is posi-

tioned low over the pelvis to provide opti-

mal protection.

Adjusting the booster seat's two levels is per-

formed by raising (p. 51) and lowering

(p. 52).

WARNING

Volvo recommends that repair or replace-

ment is only carried out by an authorised

Volvo workshop. Do not make any modifi-

cations or additions to the booster cush-

ion. If an integrated booster cushion has

been subjected to a major load, such as in

conjunction with a collision, the entire

booster cushion must be replaced. Even if

the booster cushion appears to be undam-

aged, it may not afford the same level of

protection. The booster cushion must also

be replaced if it is heavily worn.

WARNING

If the instructions for the two-stage

booster seat are not followed then the

child could sustain serious injury in the

event of an accident.
