2005 VOLVO XC90
WARNING!
No objects that add to the total weight on the seat should be placed on the front passenger's seat. If a
child is seated in the front passenger's seat with any additional weight, this extra weight could cause
the OWS system to enable the airbag, which might cause it to deploy in the event of a collision,
thereby injuring the child. The seat belt should never be wrapped around an object on the front
passenger's seat. This could interfere with the OWS system's function.
The front passenger's seat belt should never be used in a way that exerts more pressure on the
passenger than normal. This could increase the pressure exerted on the weight sensor by a child, and
could result in the airbag being enabled, which might cause it to deploy in the event of a collision,
thereby injuring the child.

When are the airbags deployed?
The information on this page pertains to SRS (front) airbags only. For information about Side Impact
Protection System (SIPS) airbags, please see
page 12
. For Inflatable Curtain (IC) airbags, please see
page 14
.
The SRS system is designed to deploy during certain frontal or front-angular collisions, impacts, or
decelerations, depending on the crash severity, angle, speed and object impacted. The SRS sensor is
designed to react to both the impact of the collision and the inertial forces generated by it and to
determine if the intensity of the collision is sufficient for the seat belt pretensioners or airbags to be
deployed.
If the airbags have been deployed, we recommend the following:
●
Have the vehicle towed to an authorized Volvo retailer. Never drive with the airbags deployed.
●
Have an authorized Volvo retailer replace the SRS system components.
●
Use only new, Genuine Volvo Parts when replacing SRS components (airbags, seat belts,
pretensioners, etc.).
When are the airbags NOT deployed?
Not all frontal collisions activate the SRS system. If the collision involves a nonrigid object (e.g., a snow
drift or bush), or a rigid, fixed object at a low speed, the SRS system will not necessarily deploy. Front
airbags do not normally deploy in a side impact collision, in a collision from the rear or in a rollover
situation. The amount of damage to the bodywork does not reliably indicate if the airbags should have
deployed or not.
Seat belts - the heart of the Volvo safety system
The heart of the Volvo safety system is the three-point seat belt (a Volvo invention)! In order for the
SRS system to provide the protection intended, seat belts must be worn at all times by everyone in the
