Side airbags (SIPS bags)

01

Side airbags – SIPS bags

Side airbag locations.

A large proportion of the collision force is

transferred by the SIPS (Side Impact Protec-

tion System) to beams, pillars, the floor, the

roof and other structural parts of the body.

The side airbags at the driver’s and front pas-

senger seats protect the chest area and are

an important part of the SIPS. The side air-

bags are located in the front seat backrests.

Inflated side airbag.

Child seats and side airbags

The side airbag does not diminish the protec-

tion provided by the car to children seated in

a child seat or on a booster cushion.

A child seat or booster cushion can be

placed on the front passenger seat provided

that the car does not have an activated

pas-

senger airbag.

WARNING

Side airbags are a supplement to the SIPS

system. Always wear a seatbelt.

WARNING

Repairs must only be performed by an au-

thorised Volvo workshop.

Work on the SIPS system can cause mal-

function and result in serious personal inju-

ry.

WARNING

Do not put objects in the area between the

outside of the seat and the door panel,

since this area is required by the side air

-

bag.

WARNING

Use only Volvo genuine car seat covers, or

seat covers approved by Volvo. Other seat

covers may impede the operation of the

side air bags.
