SIPS airbag (front seats only)
As an enhancement to the structural Side Impact Protection System built into your car, the car is also
equipped with Side Impact Protection System (SIPS) airbags. The SIPS airbag system consists of airbag
modules built into the sides of both front seat backrests (1), wires (2) and gas generators/sensor units (3).
The SIPS airbag system is designed to help increase occupant protection in the event of certain side
impact collisions. The SIPS airbags are designed to deploy only during certain sideimpact collisions,
depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and point of impact. The airbags are not designed to
deploy in all side impact situations.
NOTE: SIPS airbag deployment (one airbag) occurs only on the side of the vehicle affected by the
impact.
WARNING!
· The SIPS airbag system is a supplement to the Side Impact Protection System and the threepoint
seat belt system. It is not designed to deploy during collisions from the front or rear of the car or in
rollover situations.
· The use of seat covers on the front seats may impede SIPS airbag deployment.
· No objects, accessory equipment or stickers may be placed on, attached to or installed near, the SIPS
airbag system or in the area affected by SIPS airbag deployment (see illustration to the right above).
Never try to open or repair any components of the SIPS airbag system. This should only be done by
an authorized Volvo service technician.
· In order for the SIPS airbag to provide its best protection, both front seat occupants should sit in an
upright position with the seat belt properly fastened.
