2003 VOLVO XC90
NOTE:
Deployment of SRS components occurs only one time during an accident. In a collision where
deployment occurs, the airbags and seat belt pretensioners activate. Some noise occurs and a small
amount of powder is released. The release of the powder may appear as smoke-like matter. This is a
normal characteristic and does not indicate fire.
NOTE:
Volvo's dual-threshold, dual-stage airbags use special sensors that are integrated with the front seat
buckles. The point at which the airbag deploys is determined by whether or not the seat belt is being
used, as well as the severity of the collision. Collisions can occur where only one of the airbags deploys.
If the impact is less severe, but severe enough to present a clear injury risk, the dual-stage airbags are
triggered at 70% of their total capacity. If the impact is more severe, the dual-stage airbags are triggered
at full capacity.
WARNING!
Do not use child safety seats or child booster cushions/backrests in the front passenger's seat. We also
recommend that occupants under 4 feet 7 inches (140 cm) in height who have outgrown these devices
sit in the rear seat with the seat belt fastened. Never drive with the airbags deployed. The fact that
they hang out can impair the steering of your vehicle. Other safety systems can also be damaged. The
smoke and dust formed when the airbags are deployed can cause skin and eye irritation in the event of
prolonged exposure.
