Driving after a collision
If the vehicle has been involved in a collision,
the text
Safety mode See manual may
appear in the information display. This indi-
cates that the vehicle's functionality has been
reduced.
NOTE
This text can only be shown if the display
is undamaged and the vehicle's electrical
system is intact.
Safety mode is a feature that is triggered if
one or more of the safety systems (e.g. front
or side airbags, an inflatable curtain, or one or
more of the seat belt pretensioners) has
deployed. The collision may have damaged
an important function in the vehicle, such as
the fuel lines, sensors for one of the safety
systems, the brake system, etc.
WARNING
•
Never attempt to repair the vehicle
yourself or to reset the electrical sys-
tem after the vehicle has displayed
Safety mode See manual. This could
result in injury or improper system
function.
•
Restoring the vehicle to normal operat-
ing status should only be done by a
trained and qualified Volvo service
technician.
•
After
Safety mode See manual has
been displayed, if you detect the odor
of fuel vapor, or see any signs of fuel
leakage, do not attempt to start the
vehicle. Leave the vehicle immediately.
Attempting to start the vehicle
If damage to the vehicle is minor and there is
no fuel leakage, you may attempt to start the
vehicle. To do so:
1. Remove the remote key from the ignition
slot and open the driver's door. If a mes-
sage is displayed that the ignition is on,
press the start button.
2. Close the driver's door and reinsert the
remote key in the ignition slot.
3. Try to start the vehicle.
