Safety
When are the safety systems activated?
Airbags in the steering wheel
and dashboard (SRS)
The airbags deploy:
if there is a risk that front seat occupants
will be injured by blows against the
dashboard or steering wheel.
The SRS system senses the collision in the
level of braking and the speed reduction
caused by collision. The sensor determines if
the collision is of the character and nature
requiring airbag deployment to protect the
occupants.
The bodywork of the car could be greatly
deformed in a collision without airbag
deployment. This does not indicate a fault in
the airbags. This means that the function was
not needed at that moment and the
occupants were protected by the other safety
systems of the car.
Side airbags and inflatable
curtains (SIPS airbags and IC)
The side airbags and inflatable curtains are
normally inflated:
Only in the event of a side impact when
the car is struck by an object with suffi-
cient force.
NOTE! Deployment of the SRS, SIPS, and IC
systems only occurs once in a collision.
If the airbags have been deployed, we
recommend the following:
Have the car towed to an authorised Volvo
workshop. Do not drive the car with the
airbags deployed even if the car can be
driven after an accident.
Let an authorised Volvo workshop replace
components in the SRS, SIPS, seatbelt
and IC systems.
WARNING!
The airbag system control module is
located in the centre console. If the centre
console has become soaked with water,
disconnect the battery cables in the cargo
compartment.
Do not attempt to start; the airbags may be
triggered. Have the car towed to an
authorised Volvo workshop.
WARNING!
Never drive with deployed airbags! This
may make the car difficult to steer. Other
safety systems may also be damaged.
Intense exposure to the smoke and dust
released when the air bags are deployed
can cause skin and eye irritation. In case of
problems, wash with cold water and
contact a doctor. The speed of the
deployment and the airbag fabric may
cause friction burns on the skin.
