Volvo 2005 C70 - Manual (Page 12)

WARNING!
• Children must never be allowed in the
front passenger seat. Volvo recommends
that ALL occupants (adults and children)
shorter than 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) be
seated in the back seat of any vehicle
with a front passenger side airbag. See
page 11 for guidelines.
• Occupants in the front passenger's seat
must never sit on the edge of the seat, sit
leaning toward the instrument panel or
otherwise sit out of position. The
occupant's back must be as upright as
comfort allows and be against the seat
back with the seat belt properly fastened.
• Feet must be on the floor, e.g. not on the
dash, seat or out of the window.
• No objects or accessory equipment, e.g.
dash covers, may be placed on, attached
to or installed near the SRS hatch (the
area above the glove compartment) or the
area affected by airbag deployment (see
illustration).
• There should be no loose articles, e.g.
coffee cups, on the floor, seat or dash
area.
• Never try to open the SRS cover on the
steering wheel or the passenger side SRS
hatch. This should only be done by an
authorized Volvo service technician.
• Failure to follow these instructions can
result in injury to the vehicle occupants in
an accident.

WARNING!
Do not use child safety seats or child booster
cushions/backrests in the front passenger’s
seat. We also recommend that children who
have outgrown these devices sit in the rear
seat with the seat belt properly fastened.
NOTE:
• Deployment of SRS components occurs
only one time during an accident. In a
collision where deployment occurs, the air
bags and seat belt tensioners activate. Some
noise occurs and a small amount of powder
is released. The release of the powder may
appear as smoke-like matter. This is a
normal characteristic and does not indicate
fire.
• Volvo's dual-threshold air bags use special
sensors that are integrated with the front
seat buckles. The point at which the air bag
deploys is determined by whether or not the
seat belt is being used, as well as, the
severity of the collision. Collisions can
occur where only one of the airbags
deploys.
