What have you just found out about your XC40.
BTW, I do have two hooks (shackles or links actually) by the front passenger seats; approx. at the passenger ankles level. They are firm and stiff and you can't move, remove or twist them. Does anyone knows what are these for? I doubt they're for safety nets, but could be for child seat mounting. Any ideas?

You're welcome TomF. I tend to read the manual of every car I ever drove, but when it comes to explaining something to real people, I usually stick to my real experience.

I think they are bag holders, if you want to put some shopping bag on the floor, you can hook it on so it does not flip during driving. Similarly, there is a pop out hook in the glove box.ropetko wrote: ↑Fri Feb 26, 2021 4:04 pm BTW, I do have two hooks (shackles or links actually) by the front passenger seats; approx. at the passenger ankles level.

I don't think so. Pop-out hook in the glove box is a great thing (although it can tear the lady's socks), but these are for much firmer and heavier stuff.Qarx wrote: ↑Fri Feb 26, 2021 4:23 pmI think they are bag holders, if you want to put some shopping bag on the floor, you can hook it on so it does not flip during driving.

Btw, I usually put bags on the passenger seat, and it's a great thing when you are out for delivery, you can put the bag with the fresh food from the restaurant on the passenger seat, turn the set heaters all the way up and be sure the lunch will be warmer when you get home ))

I had a look for the hooks you mentioned and I dont appear to have any, or I couldn’t find them. Can you perhaps post a photo.

These are those hooks I’m talking about. They’re in front of the passenger’s seat. Don’t know what are these for

Are you the second owner? Maybe a previous owner added these for some specific anchoring. Dog maybe?
