Safety grille*
The safety grille prevents loads or pets in the
cargo area from being thrown forward in the
passenger compartment.
The safety grille is crash-tested in accordance
with the ECE R17 legal requirement and fulfils
Volvo's strength requirements.
For safety reasons, the safety grille must always
be attached and anchored correctly.
WARNING
Under no circumstances may anybody remain
in the cargo area while the car is moving. This
is to avoid injury in the event of heavy braking
or an accident.
Installation
IMPORTANT
The safety grille must only be used in the rear
position (behind the rear seat) described
here.
Before first installing the safety grille, the existing
plastic roof mountings must be replaced with
steel roof mountings. Volvo recommends that
replacing roof mountings is performed at an
authorised Volvo workshop or dealer.
1. Fold the rear seat's backrest forward.
2. Make sure that the safety grille is turned in
the right direction. Lift in the safety grille
through one of the rear side doors.
3. Position the safety grille's brackets on the
roof mountings.
The next step is facilitated if two people hold
the safety grille in the right position.
4. Insert the supplied screw and tighten using
the supplied 6 mm Allen key. Repeat on the
other side. Recommended tightening torque:
20 Nm.
> Check that the safety grille is properly fit-
ted.
5. Restore the backrest to the upright position.
For more information about the tools required
and methods for fitting/removal, see the installa-
tion instructions that were included with the initial
purchase.
IMPORTANT
The protective grille cannot be folded up or
down when a cargo cover is fitted.
