WARNING

•

Never try to open, remove, or repair

any components in the OWS system.

This could result in system malfunc-

tion. Maintenance or repairs should

only be carried out by an a trained and

qualified Volvo service technician.

•

The front passenger's seat should not

be modified in any way. This could

reduce pressure on the seat cushion,

which might interfere with the OWS

system's function.

Volvo recommends that children always be properly

restrained in appropriate child restraints in the rear seats.

Do not assume that the passenger's side front airbag is

disabled unless the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator

lamp is lit. Make sure the child restraint is properly instal-

led. If there is any doubt as to the status of the passeng-

er's side front airbag, move the child restraint to the rear

seat.

The OWS is designed to enable (may inflate)

the passenger's side front airbag in the event

of a collision anytime the system senses that

a person of adult size is sitting properly in the

front passenger's seat. The PASSENGER

AIRBAG OFF indicator lamp will be off and

remain off.

If a person of adult size is sitting in the front

passenger's seat, but the PASSENGER AIR-

BAG OFF indicator lamp is on, it is possible

that the person isn't sitting properly in the

seat. If this happens:

•

Turn the vehicle off and ask the person to

place the seatback in an upright position.

•

Have the person sit upright in the seat,

centered on the seat cushion, with the

person's legs comfortably extended.

•

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 pas-

senger's frontal airbag.

•

If the PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indica-

tor lamp remains on even after this, the

person should be advised to ride in the

rear seat.

This condition reflects limitations of the OWS

classification capability. It does not indicate

OWS malfunction.

Modifications

If you are considering modifying your vehicle

in any way to accommodate a disability, for

example by altering or adapting the driver's
