Roll Over Protection System
(ROPS)

The ROPS system consists of two roll bars

located behind the rear seat head restraints

and a sensor which monitors the roll or

pitch angle of the car. If the pitch angle

exceeds approximately 72 degrees or the

roll angle exceeds approximately 38

degrees, the sensor automatically deploys

(raises) the roll bars.

If the ROPS system has been deployed, an

authorized Volvo retailer should inspect the

system and make any necessary repairs/

adjustments.
