Steel grid*
G014730
The steel grid prevents cargo from being
thrown forward into the passenger area in the
event of sudden braking.
Folding up the grid
When it is not in use, the grid can be folded up
against the ceiling's headliner:
1. Grasp the lower arch of the grid.
2. Pull it rearward and upward, and release it.
The struts prevent the grid from falling.
Lower the grid by pulling down on the arch.
Removing the grid
To remove the grid from the vehicle:
1. Fold down the rear seat backrests slightly
to the release pressure on the grid's struts.
2. Remove the covers over the nuts holding
the grid on each side.
3. Loosen the nuts until the threads are flush
with the edge of the nuts.
4. Turn the grid slightly rearward so that it is
clear of the upholstery. Do not angle the
grid too much as it can become wedged in
place and be difficult to remove.
5. Perform the same procedure on the oppo-
site side of the grid, and then lift the grid
out of the vehicle.
Installing the grid
To reinstall the grid, perform the procedures
above in reverse order.
If you are uncertain about removing or installing
the grid, please contact your Volvo retailer.
