Ignition slot with remote key inserted ( see
page 82 for more information on ignition modes)

WARNING

Before starting the engine:

Fasten the seat belt.

Check that the seat, steering wheel and
mirrors are adjusted properly.

Make sure the brake pedal can be
depressed completely. Adjust the seat
if necessary.

WARNING

Never use more than one floor mat at a
time on the driver's floor. An extra mat
on the driver's floor can cause the
accelerator and/or brake pedal to
catch. Check that the movement of
these pedals is not impeded.

Volvo's floor mats are specially manu-
factured for your car. They must be
firmly secured in the clips on the floor so
that they cannot slide and become trap-
ped under the pedals on the driver's
side.
