Resetting the electric seat belt
Door and seat belt reminders
tensioners*
This system is intended to remind occupants
to buckle their seat belts and to alert the
driver if a door, hood or other opening (trunk,
sunroof, etc.) is open.
The electric seat belt tensioners are designed
to be reset automatically, but if the seat belt
remains taut it can be reset manually.
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe location.
When a critical situation has passed, the seat
belt and the electric seat belt tensioner are
reset automatically. However, they can also be
reset manually.

2. Unbuckle the seat belt and then rebuckle
it.
WARNING
> The seat belt and the electric seat belt
tensioner will be reset.
Never attempt to alter or repair the seat
belt on your own. Volvo recommends con-
tacting an authorized Volvo workshop.
If the seat belt has been exposed to
extreme forces, e.g. in conjunction with a
collision, the entire seat belt must be
replaced. Even if the seat belt appears
undamaged, some of its protective proper-
ties may have been lost. Also replace the
seat belt if it is worn or damaged. The new
seat belt must be type approved and
intended for the same seating position as
the replaced seat belt.
