Inflatable Curtain (IC)
The inflatable curtain IC (Inflatable Curtain) is a part of the SIPS system. It is fitted in the headlining along both sides of the roof and protects the car's occupants sitting in the outer seats. A sufficiently violent collision trips the sensors and the inflatable curtain is inflated.
Warning
Never hang or attach heavy items onto the handles in the roof. The hook is only designed for light clothing (not for solid objects such as umbrellas for example).
Do not screw or install anything onto the car's headlining, door pillars or side panels. This could compromise the intended protection. Volvo recommends that you only ever use Volvo genuine parts that are approved for placement in these areas.
Warning
Warning
The inflatable curtain is a supplement to the seatbelts.
Always use a seatbelt.
