SAFETY
35
The system consists of airbags and sensors. A
sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and
the airbag(s) are inflated and become hot. The
airbag cushions the initial collision impact for the
occupant. The airbag deflates when compressed
by the collision. When this occurs, smoke
escapes into the car. This is completely normal.
The entire process, including inflation and defla-
tion of the airbag, occurs within tenths of a sec-
ond.
WARNING
Volvo recommends that you contact an
authorised Volvo workshop for repair. Defec-
tive work in the airbag system could cause
malfunction and result in serious personal
injury.
The detectors react differently depending on
the nature of the collision and whether or not
the seatbelts are fastened. Applies to all belt
positions.
It is therefore possible that only one (or none)
of the airbags may inflate in a collision. The
detectors sense the force of the collision on
the vehicle and the action is adapted accord-
ingly so that one or more airbags are
deployed.

Safety - warning symbol (p. 34)
Driver airbag
To supplement the protection afforded by the
seatbelt (p. 30) the car is equipped on the driv-
er's side with an airbag (p. 34).
This airbag is fitted into the centre of the steering
wheel. The steering wheel is marked
AIRBAG
.
WARNING
The seatbelts and airbags interact. If the belt
is not used or is used incorrectly, this may
diminish the protection provided by the airbag
in the event of a collision.
