Side airbags SIPS bags
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 the
hip and are an important part of the SIPS.
The SIPS bag system consists of two main
components, side airbag and sensors. The
side airbags are located in the front seat
backrests.

WARNING
Do not allow anyone to sit in the front pas-
senger seat if the text message in the roof
panel indicates that the airbag (SRS) is de-
activated and if the warning symbol for the
airbag system is also displayed on the com-
bined instrument panel. This indicates that
there has been a severe malfunction. Con-
tact an authorised Volvo workshop immedi-
ately.
WARNING
Side airbags are a supplement to the SIPS
system. Always use 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.
