1989 Volvo 740
WARNING!
Child Restraint Anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted
Child Restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts or harnesses.
The anchorages are not able to withstand excessive forces on them in the event of collision if full
harness seal belts or adult seat belts are installed to them. A grown-up who uses a belt anchored in a
Child Restraint Anchorage runs a great risk of suffering severe injuries should a collision occur.

Seat Belts
Always fasten the seat belts before you drive or ride.
Two lights will be illuminated for 4- 8 seconds after the starting (ignition) key is turned to the driving
position. One light is located in the instrument panel and one in the console between the front seats.
A chime will sound at the same time if the driver has not fastened his seat belt. The rear outboard seats
are provided with self-retracting inertia-reel belts. The front seats are provided with twin roller belts.
To buckle:
Pull the belt out from both retractors far enough to insert the latch plate into the receptacle (buckle for
rear seats), until a distinct snapping sound is heard. The seat belt retractors are normally "unlocked" and
you can move freely, provided that the shoulder belt is not pulled out too far. The retractors will lock up
as follows:
●
if belt is pulled out rapidly
●
during braking and acceleration
●
if the vehicle is leaning excessively
●
when driving in turns.
