Child Restraint Anchorages (C70 Coupe only)
Volvo's own integrated booster cushion has been specially designed to help safeguard a child seated in
the center position of the rear seat. When using the integrated booster cushion, the child must be secured
with the vehicle's three-point seat belt. The booster cushion is approved for children weighing between
33 and 80 lbs (15 and 36 kg) and between 38 and 54 in (97 and 137 cm) in height.
Installing the top tether
The predrilled holes for the child restraint anchorages are located in the parcel shelf.
Refer to the child seat manufacturer's instructions for securing the seat.
WARNING!
Child Restraint Anchorages are designed to withstand only those loads imposed by correctly fitted
Child Restraints. Under no circumstances are they to be used for adult seat belts or harnesses. The
anchorages are not able to withstand excessive forces on them in the event of collision if full harness
seat belts or adult seat belts are installed to them. An adult who uses a belt anchored in a Child
Restraint Anchorage runs a great risk of suffering severe injuries should a collision occur. Do not
install rear speakers which would require the removal of the top tether anchors or interfere with the
proper use of the top tether strap.
The rear seat of the Volvo C70 is intended for two occupants only. Only two three-point seat belts
are provided. The center position should never be used to seat a passenger.
