Child safety
Children should sit comfortably
and safely
The position of a child in the car and the
choice of equipment is dictated by the child’s
weight and size, for more information see
page 26.
NOTE!
Regulations regarding the placement
of children in cars vary from country to
country. Check what laws apply.
Children of all ages and sizes must always sit
correctly secured in the car. Never allow a
child to sit on the knee of a passenger.
Volvo’s own child safety equipment is
designed for your car. Use Volvo genuine
equipment to best ensure that the mounting
points and attachments are correctly
positioned and are sufficiently strong.
You may place:
• A child seat or booster cushion on the
front passenger seat, provided the
passenger airbag is not activated
1 .
• A rear-facing child seat in the rear seat
that uses the back of the front seat as
support.
Airbags (SRS) and child seats are not
compatible.
Child seats and airbags (SRS)
Always place a child in the rear seat if the
passenger airbag (SRS) is activated
1 . A child
in a child seat on the front passenger seat
may suffer serious injury if the airbag deploys.
1. For information on activated/deacti-
vated airbag (SRS) see page 16.
WARNING!
Persons shorter than 140 cm may only sit
in the front passenger seat if the
passenger airbag is deactivated.
