Safety in the passenger compartment 01
message is automatically cleared after ap-
prox. 30 seconds or can be acknowl-
edged manually by pressing the READ
button.
• Provides a warning if one of the rear
seatbelts is unfastened during travel. This
warning takes the form of a message on
the information display along with the
audio/visual signal. The warning ceases
when the seatbelt is re-fastened or can be
acknowledged manually by pressing the
READ button.
The message on the information display
showing which seatbelts are in use is always
available. Press the READ button to see
stored messages.
Certain markets
An audio signal and indicator lamp remind
the driver if not wearing a seatbelt to use one.
At low speed, the audio reminder will sound
for the first 6 seconds.
Seatbelt tensioner
All the seatbelts are equipped with belt ten-
sioners. A mechanism in the belt tensioner
tightens the seatbelt around in the event of a
sufficiently forceful collision. This provides
more effective restraint by the seatbelt for
passengers.
Warning symbol on the combined
instrument panel
The airbag system is continually monitored
by the system control module. The warning
symbol on the combined instrument panel il-
luminates in ignition position II or III. The
symbol goes out after approx. 6 seconds
provided the airbag system is fault-free.
WARNING
If the warning symbol for the airbag system
remains on or illuminates while driving, it
means that the airbag system is not func-
tioning fully. The symbol indicates a fault in
the seatbelt buckle, SIPS, IC system or
other fault in the SRS system. Contact an
authorised Volvo workshop urgently.
