Occupant Classification System
function
OCS works in combination with sensors in the
front passenger seat. The sensors are intended
to detect the presence, and classification of, an
occupant sitting correctly and determine whether
the front passenger airbag should be enabled
(able to be deployed) or disabled (cannot be
deployed).
The OCS uses an indicator light with the text
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF, which will illumi-
nate and stay on to remind you that the passeng-
er's side front airbag is disabled. The
PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF indicator light is
located in the ceiling console near the bracket for
the rearview mirror.
Always pay attention that the status of the indica-
tor light shows the correct classification both
before and while driving when the front passen-
ger seat is occupied.
NOTE
When the ignition is switched on, the OCS
indicator light will illuminate for several sec-
onds while the system performs a self-diag-
nostic test. The indicator light will then go out
or remain illuminated, depending on the clas-
sification of the passenger in the front pas-
senger seat.
If a malfunction is detected in the sys-
tem, the OCS indicator light will remain
illuminated and the SRS warning sym-
bol will be shown in the instrument
panel along with a text message.
WARNING
If a fault in the system is detected and indi-
cated as described, be aware that the pas-
senger's side front airbag will not deploy in
the event of a collision. If this occurs, have the
airbag system and Occupant Classification
System checked by a workshop as soon as
possible. Volvo recommends contacting an
authorized Volvo workshop.
Classification of adult
To help ensure accurate classification when a
person of adult size is sitting in the front passen-
ger seat, the passenger must:
•
be wearing their seat belt
•
sit normally in the seat, in the center of the
seat cushion
•
sit upright in the seat with their shoulders
against the backrest
•
have their legs comfortably extended with
their feet on the floor.
Correct seating position.
Example of incorrect seating position - the passenger
must not have slid forward on the seat cushion.
