2003 VOLVO XC70
WARNING!
●
The SIPS airbag system is a supplement to the Side Impact Protection System and the three-point
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 below).
●
Never try to open or repair any components of the SIPS airbag system. This should be done only
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.
NOTE: SIPS airbag deployment (one airbag) occurs only on the side of the vehicle affected by the
impact.
*A SIPS airbag warning decal is also located at the end of the instrument panel on the driver's side of the
car.
