Storage, stowing and towing -> Parcel shelf for Your Volvo EX30 4 Door First Generation (2025-2026)

Tip  
Adjust boot opening height  
You can adjust how much the boot hatch opens. This can be useful when you're parked in places with a low ceiling, such  
as a garage, and you want to reduce the boot opening height. You can also raise the boot opening height to create more  
room for accessing the boot.  
Stowing cargo securely  
You can also find options for stowing cargo securely, such as load-retaining eyelets and bag hooks. These features are useful for  
ensuring cargo doesn't move around the boot while you are driving.  
12.2.1. Parcel shelf  
Use the parcel shelf to hide items in the boot from view.  
The parcel shelf is attached by two hinges at the back, near the rear seats, and two cords in the front. The cords hook onto at-  
tachment points on the boot hatch.  
Remove the parcel shelf to create more space or more easily access the rear interior of the car.  
Important  
Do not place anything on the parcel shelf. In the case of sudden braking or a collision, loose objects can move  
abruptly and cause injury.  
Keep in mind that large objects stored in the car can reduce your driving visibility.  
Do not leave the parcel shelf in the car when it is not properly secured.  
When folding the rear seats down, first remove the parcel shelf.  
When placing tall objects in the boot, it's best to remove the parcel shelf. This is because the shelf is attached to the  
boot hatch and lies flat when the hatch is closed. If a tall object gets in the way of the parcel shelf, it can damage the  
shelf.  
Warning  
Child restraints  
Take care to keep the parcel shelf and objects in the boot clear from the top tether straps of a child restraint. Contact with  
the straps can cause damage. Never use the child restraint if the top tethers are damaged in any way. When using a child  
restraint on the rear seats, remove the parcel shelf or detach it and keep it secure in the cargo area. Furthermore, secure all  
objects in the boot.

around the boot while you are driving.  
The boot has several features to help stow items. These include:  
Load-retaining eyelets in the lower four corners of the boot for securely fastening objects with straps.
