Volvo has some very specific
recommendations:
•
Always wear your seat belt (p. 28).
•
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 vehi-
cle.
•
Volvo strongly recommends that every-
one in the vehicle be properly restrained.
•
Volvo recommends that ALL occupants
(adults and children) shorter than 4 feet
7 inches (140 cm) be seated in the back
seat of any vehicle with a front passenger
side airbag.
•
Drive safely!

Child restraint systems
G022840
Infant seat
There are three main types of child restraint
systems: infant seats (p. 49), convertible
seats (p. 51), and booster cush-
ions (p. 53). They are classified according to
the child's age and size.
The following section provides general infor-
mation on securing a child restraint using a
three-point seat belt (p. 28). Refer to ISOFIX/
LATCH lower anchors (p. 54) and Top tether
anchors (p. 56) for information on securing
a child restraint using ISOFIX/LATCH lower
anchors and/or top tether anchorages.
G022847
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 (on vehicles
equipped with Occupant Weight Sensor). If
the severity of an accident were to cause
the airbag to inflate, this could lead to seri-
ous injury or death to a child seated in this
position.
