Warning
Never use a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat if the passenger airbag is activated.

Child seat positioning

It is important to position the child seat in the right place in the car. The choice of location depends, amongst other things, on the type of child seat and whether the passenger airbag is activated.2022-Volvo-S90-Recharge-Plug-in-Hybrid-Child-seat-location-ig1

Rear-facing child seat and airbag are not compatible.

Always fit rear-facing child seats in the rear seat if the passenger airbag is activated. If a child is sitting on the front passenger seat then he/she could suffer serious injury if the airbag deploys.

If the passenger airbag is deactivated then rear-facing child seats can be fitted on the front passenger seat.

Note
Regulations regarding the placement of children in cars vary from country to country. Check what does apply.
Warning
Never allow anybody to stand or sit in front of the front passenger seat.
Never use a rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat if the airbag is activated.
Front-facing passengers (children and adults) must never sit on the front passenger seat if the passenger airbag is deactivated.
Failure to follow the advice given above can endanger life or lead to serious personal injury.
Warning
NEVER use a rearward facing child restraint on a seat protected by an ACTIVE AIRBAG in front of it, DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY to the CHILD can occur.

Label on the passenger side’s sun visor.

The warning label for the passenger airbag is positioned as shown above.

Child seat mounting

It is important to remember a number of things when a child restraint system is mounted and used, which depend on where the child restraint system is positioned.

Warning
Booster cushions/child seats with steel braces or some other design that could rest on the seatbelt buckle’s opening button must not be used, as they could cause the seatbelt buckle to open accidentally.
Do not secure the straps for the child seat into the seat’s horizontal adjustment bar or in springs, rails or beams under the seat. Sharp edges may damage the straps.
Do not allow the upper section of the child seat to rest against the windscreen.
Note
When using child safety equipment, it is important to read the installation instructions included.\
In the event of questions when fitting child safety equipment, contact the manufacturer for clearer instructions.
Note
Never leave a child seat loose in the car. Always secure it according to the instructions for the child seat, even when it is not in use.
Note
Observe caution when fitting child restraint systems so that sharp edges or protruding parts of the child restraint system do not scratch the interior of the car.
Long-term installation and use of child seats may cause wear and tear on the car’s fittings. Volvo recommends using the kick guard accessory to protect the car’s fittings.

Regardless of location

  • Only use child seats that are recommended by Volvo, are universally approved or are semi-universal, and where the car is included on the manufacturer’s vehicle list.
  • If the child seat is equipped with support legs, always fit the support leg/support legs directly to the floor. Never fit a support leg to a footrest or other object.
  • When fitting adjustable, rear-facing child seats, the child seat must be adjusted so that the older the child is, the more upright the position is.

Installation in the front seat

  • When using front-facing booster seats and loose booster cushions where the child uses the car’s seatbelt, raise the front seat if necessary so that the seatbelt strap can be tensioned around the child’s hips.
  • When fitting rear-facing child seats, check that the passenger airbag is deactivated.
  • When fitting front-facing child seats, check that the passenger airbag is activated.
  • When fitting rear-facing child restraint systems, lower the front seat to its lowest position unless otherwise specified in the relevant table for the location of child restraint systems.
  • When fitting rear-facing child restraint systems, slide the front seat forward so that the child restraint system is in contact with or comes as close as possible to the instrument panel.
  • ISOFIX child seats can only be fitted when the car is equipped with the ISOFIX console (Varies depending on market.) accessory.
  • If the child seat is equipped with lower straps, Volvo recommends that the lower mounting points are used with these. (Varies depending on market.)
  • The ISOFIX guide can be used in order to facilitate installation of an ISOFIX-anchored child restraint system.

Installation in the rear seat

  • A child seat with support legs must not be fitted in the centre seat.
  • The outer seats are equipped with the ISOFIX fixture system and are approved for i-Size.(Varies depending on market.)
  • The outer seats are equipped with upper mounting points. Volvo recommends that child seat’s upper straps should be pulled through the hole in the head restraint before being tensioned at the mounting point. If this is not possible, follow the recommendations from the child seat manufacturer.
  • If the child seat is equipped with lower straps, never adjust the position of the seat in front after the straps have been fitted in the lower mounting points. Always remember to remove the lower straps when the child seat is not installed.2022-Volvo-S90-Recharge-Plug-in-Hybrid-Child-seat-location-fig3

    With the installation of an infant seat in the rear seat, Volvo recommends a distance of at least 50 mm (2 tum) from the front part of the infant seat to the rearmost part of the seat in front.
