Introduction
G020797
Deployed ROPS roll bars
The ROPS system consists of two roll bars
located behind the rear seat head restraints,
and a sensor that monitors the roll or pitch
angle of the vehicle.
If the vehicle rolls or pitches beyond a preset
angle, or in the event of a rear-end collision of
sufficient force, the roll bars are automatically
deployed (raised).
The ROPS system is designed to function
regardless of whether the power retractable
hard top is up or down. By design, the tops of
the roll bars are equipped with a point in order
to pierce the rear window if the top is up.
NOTE
If ROPS has deployed, the system should
be inspected by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.

No objects should be placed over the
roll bars or behind the rear seat head
restraints.
