Fitting and removing safety grilles
*
The safety grille prevents loads or pets in the
cargo area from being thrown forward in the
passenger compartment under heavy braking.
The safety grille is crash-tested in accordance
with the ECE R17 legal requirement and fulfils
Volvo's strength requirements.
For safety reasons, the safety grille must always
be attached and anchored correctly.
WARNING
Under no circumstances may anybody remain
in the cargo area while the car is moving. This
is to avoid injury in the event of heavy braking
or an accident.
The safety grille's parts consist of the grille and
two loose attaching braces. The attaching braces
each come with a screw cap and there are two
plastic sleeves for the safety grille.
WARNING
The safety grille must only be used in the rear
position described here. The roof mountings
behind the front seats are not intended for
the safety grille.
WARNING
For safety reasons, the third seat row
4
must
be lowered when the safety grille is fitted in
the car.
IMPORTANT
It is not possible to have the protective grille
fitted at the same time as the cargo cover.
Installation
1. Lower the rear seat and then lift the safety
grille in through one of the rear side doors or
via the tailgate - the arched/convex side of
the grille should face the cargo area while
the hooks on each side point up. The attach-
ing braces and plastic sleeves are not used
in this stage.
2.
Guide one of the safety grille's hooks into the
larger opening in the roof mounting (1).
Grasp the grille near the hook and pull/slide
it towards the smaller opening (2).
> The hook is now secured in the roof
mounting's end position.
3. Repeat the steps in point 2 above to secure
the other hook in the mounting on the other
side.
WARNING
Make sure the hooks of the safety grille are
securely fitted in the roof mountings so there
is no risk of the grille coming loose.
4 Applies to 7-seat cars.
