Integrated booster cushions
Integrated booster cushions in the rear outboard seats help provide just the right seating height for
children weighing between 15 and 36 kg. As well as improving safety, the booster cushions provide
a great vantage point for watching the world go by. Furthermore, raising and lowering the cushions is
childishly easy.
SAFETy Child safety
u Infant seat (up to 13 kg)
Infants, from newborns up to about 1 year of age, travel
safely backwards in this comfortable seat. It’s installed
using the car’s safety belt. And for extra convenient
installation using the car’s ISOFIX attachments, an ISOFIX
base can be added. Side wings help protect in a side impact,
and the headrest and five-point harness are easily adjusted.
The headrest is padded for a comfortable sleep and
there’s a canopy to block the sun. What’s more, the infant
seat is easy to carry and can be used as a babysitter.
u Convertible child seat (9–25 kg)
From the age of 9 months to about 6 years of age a child
can continue to be seated backwards in this new child
seat. Advanced design helps provide world-class protection
and flexible seating for many years. The seat is fitted
using the car’s safety belt and is easily adjusted to help
optimise comfort and safety. An integrated support leg
helps facilitate safe backward installation. We recommend
that children be seated backwards as long as possible.
But when a child grows bigger (15–25 kg) and can not
comfortably be seated facing to the rear, this seat can also
be used as a forward-facing booster cushion that puts
a child at the correct position for the car’s safety belt.
power child safety lock
The power child lock enables you to conveniently lock the
rear doors and rear power windows from the driver’s seat
and prevent them from being opened from the inside.
u Booster seat (15–36 kg)
Volvo’s new booster seat helps position a child at the
correct height for the safety belt and is designed to optimise
side impact protection. The headrest and width adjust
easily to enhance comfort, and the backrest can be reclined
when the child wants to rest.

With buttons integrated in the sun visor, HomeLink ® allows you to operate remote controlled home
appliances – such as garage door, home alarm and exterior lighting – without leaving the car.

laminated side door windows
Laminated side windows turn an attempted smash-and-grab into a time consuming ordeal. They
also enhance sound comfort in the cabin and contribute to UV protection. Additionally, this option also
includes water-repellent glass in the front side windows for improved visibility in wet weather.
power retractable door mirrors
with ground lighting
At the touch of a button, these door mirrors can
be folded flat against the car where they are
less likely to get damaged after you’ve parked.
They also fold or unfold automatically every time
you lock or unlock the car. The integrated ground
lighting is activated with the remote control.
Beyond enhancing security to and from your car
at night, this is also convenient when getting in
and out.
SAFETy Security
Approach and Home Safe lighting
Activated with the remote control, Approach Lighting provides a warm reception on a dark night.
This consists of interior and side lights – ground lighting too, if you choose it. Home Safe Lighting is
activated with the headlight stalk as you leave the car and it provides a similar courtesy when exiting
your car. This feature includes a dipped beam from the headlight to accompany you to your door.
Volvo on Call
Activating automatically if any of your car’s airbags are deployed – or at the touch of a button – Volvo
On Call is Volvo’s roadside assistance and emergency service. Not only does it put you in direct contact
with a Volvo On Call operator, a built-in GPS system allows them to pinpoint your location and get help
to you as soon as possible. The system can also alert you to an attempted break-in, and if the car is
stolen it can be traced via satellite.
