Roll Over Protection System
(ROPS)
•
The ROPS system consists of two roll bars
located behind the rear seat head restraints
and a sensor which monitors the roll or
pitch angle of the car. If the pitch angle
exceeds approximately 72 degrees or the
roll angle exceeds approximately 38
degrees, the sensor automatically deploys
(raises) the roll bars.
•
If the ROPS system has been deployed, an
authorized Volvo retailer should inspect the
system and make any necessary repairs/
adjustments.
