floor of the vehicle) or if your vehicle has become flood-damaged in any way, do not attempt to start
the vehicle or put the key in the ignition before disconnecting the battery (see below). This may cause
airbag deployment which could result in personal injury. Have the vehicle towed to a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician for repairs.

pg. 6 Front airbags
The front airbag system
The front airbags supplement the three-point seat belts. For these airbags to provide the protection
intended, seat belts must be worn at all times.
The front airbag system includes gas generators (1) surrounded by the airbags (2) and a deceleration
sensor (3) that activates the gas generators, causing the airbags to be inflated with nitrogen gas.
