rearward. This movement helps absorb some
of the forces that could result in whiplash.
WARNING
•
The WHIPS system is designed to
supplement the other safety systems
in your vehicle. For this system to
function properly, the three-point seat
belt must be worn. Please be aware
that no system can prevent all possible
injuries that may occur in an accident.
•
The WHIPS system is designed to
function in certain collisions from the
rear, depending on the crash severity,
angle and speed.
WARNING
•
Occupants in the front seats must
never sit out of position. The occu-
pant's back must be as upright as
comfort allows and be against the seat
back with the seat belt properly fas-
tened.
•
If your vehicle has been involved in a
rear-end collision, the front seat back-
rests must be inspected by a trained
and qualified Volvo service technician,
even if the seats appear to be undam-
aged. Certain components in the
WHIPS system may need to be
replaced.
•
Do not attempt to service any compo-
nent in the WHIPS system yourself.
WARNING
•
Boxes, suitcases, etc. wedged behind
the front seats could impede the func-
tion of the WHIPS system.
•
If the rear seat backrests are folded
down, cargo must be secured to pre-
vent it from sliding forward against the
front seat backrests in the event of a
collision from the rear. This could
interfere with the action of the WHIPS
system.
WARNING
Any contact between the front seat back-
rests and the folded rear seat or a rear-
facing child seat could impede the function
of the WHIPS system. If the rear seat is
folded down, the occupied front seats
must be adjusted forward so that they do
not touch the folded rear seat.
