^
The seat belt extender may be used only by the intended user. Use by other persons may result in decreased protection to them in the event of a

SEAT BELTS, SEAT BELT EXTENDERS, AND THE VOLVO SUPPLEMENTAL SAFETY RESTRAINT SYSTEM
From model year 1998 and up, the Volvo Supplemental Safety Restraint System (SRS) uses a two-threshold airbag deployment system that relies upon
information provided by sensors linked to the front seat belt buckles. These sensors tell the SRS whether or not the seat belt is buckled. In a frontal
collision, the airbag of an unbuckled seat position may deploy even if the airbag of a buckled seat position does not.
If either a seat belt or seat belt extender tab is inserted into the the seat belt buckle, the SRS will believe that a seat belt is in proper use. Therefore, in a
frontal collision, if the extender is installed and the seat belt is not properly used, the affected airbag may not deploy or may not deploy with appropriate
force!
VOLVO STRONGLY URGES YOU AND ALL ADULT OCCUPANTS OF YOUR CAR TO PROPERLY WEAR SEAT BELTS AND TO ENSURE
THAT CHILDREN ARE PROPERLY RESTRAINED IN THE REAR SEAT.
