Roll Over
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2013 Volvo C70, 2012 Volvo C70, 2011 Volvo C70, 2010 Volvo C70, and 2009 Volvo C70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
In the event of a roll over, the sensors, mounted in the Supplemental restraint system module (SRS) (4/9), evaluate the angle of the vehicle and how quickly the vehicle angle will change. When the movement has exceeded the predetermined limit, the following components are activated:
- door mounted inflatable curtains (8/66 and 8/67)
- seat belt tensioners (8/33, 8/34, 8/55 and 8/56)
- roll-over bar cassettes (8/57 and 8/58).
A collision signal is transmitted on a direct connection from the supplemental restraint system module (SRS) to the central electronic module (CEM) (4/56) and phone module (PHM) (16/60) when the collision protection system is activated. These two control modules ensure that:
- switch off the fuel pump (FP)
- switch off the engine cooling fan (FC)
- switch off the windshield wipers when the car is stationary
- switch on the interior lighting and the courtesy lighting
- set the vehicle to collision status
- unlock the central locking system and
- if the vehicle is equipped with Volvo On Call (Plus), send an automatic alarm to CSC (Customer Service Center).
