Fitting a child seat
Volvo has child safety products that are de-
signed for and tested by Volvo.
When using other child safety products avail-
able on the market it is important to read the
installation instructions included with the
product.
• Do not attach the straps for the child seat
to the horizontal adjustment bar, springs,
rails or beams under the seat. Sharp
edges can damage the straps.
• Allow the back of the child seat to rest
against the dashboard. This applies to
cars without a passenger airbag, or where
the airbag is deactivated.
WARNING
Never place a child in a child seat or on a
booster cushion in the front seat if the air-
bag (SRS) is activated

.
No one shorter than 140 cm should sit in
the front passenger seat if the airbag (SRS)
is activated.

Failure to follow the advice given above can
endanger the life of the child.
