WARNING
If a seat has been subjected to extreme
forces, such as due to a rear-end collision,
the WHIPS system must be checked.
Volvo recommends that it is checked by
an authorised Volvo workshop.
Part of the WHIPS system's protective
capacity may have been lost even if the
seats appear to be undamaged.
Volvo recommends that you contact an
authorised Volvo workshop to have the
system checked even after a minor rear-
end collision.
Roll Over Protection System (ROPS)
Volvo's Roll-Over Protection System (ROPS)
has been designed to reduce the risk of the
car overturning and to provide the best possi-
ble protection in the event of such an acci-
dent.
The system consists of a stabiliser system,
Roll Stability Control (RSC) that minimises the
risk of overturning, for example, during sud-
den evasive manoeuvres or if the car skids.
The RSC system uses a sensor which regis-
ters changes in the car's lateral inclination
angle. This information is used to calculate
the risk of the car overturning. If a risk exists
then the DSTC system (p. 178) engages,
engine torque is lowered and one or more
wheels are braked until the car has regained
its stability.
WARNING
Under normal driving conditions, the RSC
system improves the car's road safety, but
this must not be seen as an opportunity to
increase speed. Always follow the normal
precautions for safe driving.
