· In using any child restraint system, we urge you to look carefully over the instructions that are
provided with the restraint. Be sure you understand them and can use the device properly and
safely in this vehicle. A misused child restraint system can result in increased injuries for both the
infant or child and other occupants in the vehicle.
· If your child restraint requires a top tether strap, consult your authorized Volvo retailer for top tether
anchorage and installation information.
When a child has outgrown the child safety seat, you should use the rear seat with the standard seat belt
fastened. The best way to help protect the child here is to place the child
on a cushion so that the seat belt is properly located on the hips (see
page 10 ).
A specially designed and tested booster cushion (not available in Canada ) for children between 50 - 80
lbs (22.7 - 36 kg) and 46 - 54" (117 - 137 cm) can be obtained from your Volvo retailer.
If necessary, an auxiliary seat for children is available for use in the luggage compartment of station
wagon models. This seat is designed for two children, each weighing between 50 - 88 lbs. (23 - 40 kg)
and up to 59 inches (150 cm) in height.
WARNING!
· When using the auxiliary seat for children, both sections of the rear seat backrest must be secured in
the upright position.
· Do not use a booster cushion or child seat in conjunction with the auxiliary seat.

Volvo Concern for Safety
Safety is the cornerstone for Volvo. Our concern dates back to 1927 when the first Volvo rolled off the
production line. Threepoint seat belts (a Volvo invention), safety cages, and energyabsorbing impact
zones were designed into Volvo cars long before it was fashionable or required by government
regulation. We will not compromise our commitment to safety. We continue to seek out new safety
features and to refine those already in our cars. You can help. We would appreciate hearing your
suggestions about improving automobile safety. We also want to know if you ever have a safety concern
with your car. Call us in the U.S. at: 800-458-1552 or in Canada at: 800-663-8255.
