2001 VOLVO V70 No objects, accessory equipment or stickers may be placed on, attached to or installed near, the SIPS airbag system or in the area affected by SIPS airbag deployment (see illustration to the right above). Never try to open or repair any components of the SIPS airbag system. This should be done only by an authorized Volvo service technician. In order for the SIPS airbag to provide its best protection, both front seat occupants should sit in an upright position with the seat belt properly fastened. *A SIPS airbag warning decal is also located at the end of the instrument panel on the driver's side of the car. NOTE: SIPS airbag deployment (one airbag) occurs only on the side of the vehicle affected by the impact. WARNING! Never drive with the airbags deployed. The fact that they hang out can impair the steering of your car. Other safety systems can also be damaged. The smoke and dust formed when the airbags are deployed can cause skin and eye irritation in the event of prolonged exposure. If your car has been subjected to flood conditions (e.g. soaked carpeting/ standing water on the floor of the vehicle) or if your car 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. This may cause airbag deployment which could result in personal injury. Have the car towed to an authorized Volvo retailer for repairs. pg. 9 Volvo Inflatable Curtain (VIC) http://new.volvocars.com/ownersdocs/2001/2001_V70/01v70_01a.htm[4/4/2013 10:38:06 PM]
