WARNING! As its name implies, SRS is designed to be a SUPPLEMENT to - not a replacement for -
the three-point belt system. The airbag is not designed to be released in the event of a side or rear-end
collision, or during a rollover situation. For maximum protection, wear seat belts at all times. Be aware
that no system can prevent all possible injuries that may occur in an accident.
The airbag system includes a gas generator (1), surrounded by the airbag itself (2). To deploy the
system, the sensor (3) activates the gas generator causing the airbag to be inflated with nitrogen gas. As
the movement of the driver compresses the airbag, some of the gas is expelled at a controlled rate to
provide better cushioning. The entire process, including inflation and deflation of the airbag takes
approximately two-tenths of a second.
WARNING:
When installing any optional equipment make sure that the SRS system is not damaged. Do not
attempt to service any component of the SRS yourself. Attempting to do so may result in serious
personal injury. If a problem arises, take your car to the nearest authorized Volvo Dealer for inspection
as soon as possible.
