01 Safety
Door Mounted Inflatable Curtain system (DMIC)
01
34
G025425
The DMIC is a supplement to the structural side
impact protection. These inflatable curtains are
concealed in the upper section of both doors.
•
The Inflatable Curtain (DMIC) and the Side
Impact Airbag System (SIPS airbag) will
both deploy in certain side impacts. The
DMIC is also designed to deploy in rollover
situations.
•
DMIC deployment can occur regardless of
whether the power retractable hard top is
up or down.
WARNING
•
The DMIC system is a supplement to
the Side Impact Protection System. It is
not designed to deploy during collisions
from the front or rear of the vehicle. It
only provides protection for the occu-
pants of the front seats.
•
There is a risk of injury if the driver or
front seat passenger leans on or against
the door panel when the DMIC deploys.
•
Never install or mount any equipment
on the insides of the doors, door pillars,
or side panels. This could impede the
function of the DMIC system.
•
Never try to open or repair any compo-
nents of the DMIC system. This should
be done only by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.

WARNING
In order for the DMIC to provide its best
protection, both front seat occupants
should sit in an upright position with the seat
belt properly fastened; adults using the seat
belt and children using the proper child
restraint system. Only adults should sit in
the front seats. Children must never be
allowed in the front passenger seat. See
page 40 for guidelines. Failure to follow
these instructions can result in injury to the
vehicle occupants in an accident.
