pg. 7 Volvo SRS

NOTE: The information on this page does not pertain to the Side Impact Protection System airbags.

When are the airbags deployed?

The SRS system is designed to deploy during certain frontal or frontangular collisions, impacts, or decelerations,
depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and object impacted. The SRS sensor is designed to react to both the impact
of the collision and the inertial forces generated by it and to determine if the intensity of the collision is sufficient for the
airbags to be deployed.

WARNING!
The SRS is designed to help prevent serious injury. Deployment occurs very quickly and with considerable force.
During normal deployment and depending on variables such as seating position, one may experience abrasions, bruises,
swellings, or other injuries as a result of airbag(s) deployment.

If the airbags have been deployed, we recommend the following:

· Have the car towed to an authorized Volvo retailer. Never drive with the airbags deployed.

· Have an authorized Volvo retailer replace the SRS system components.

· Use only new, Genuine Volvo Parts when replacing SRS components (airbags, seat belts, tensioners, etc.).

When are the airbags NOT deployed?

Not all frontal collisions activate the SRS system. If the collision involves a nonrigid object (e.g., a snow drift or bush), or a
rigid, fixed object at a low speed, the SRS system will not necessarily deploy. Front airbags do not normally deploy in a
side impact collision, in a collision from the rear or in a rollover situation. The amount of damage to the bodywork does not
reliably indicate if the airbags should have deployed or not.

Seat belts the heart of the Volvo safety system

The heart of the Volvo safety system is the threepoint seat belt (a Volvo invention)! In order for the SRS system to
provide the protection intended, seat belts must be worn at all times by everyone in the car. The SRS system is a
supplement to the seat belts.
