Child seats
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.
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.
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.
For child restraint systems where the child uses the car’s integrated seatbelt, read the owner’s manual’s recommendations about seatbelts.
