MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Raising the car

When raising the car it is important that the jack

or lifting arms are fitted in the intended points on

the car's underbody.

NOTE

Volvo recommends only using the jack that

belongs to the car model in question. If a jack

is selected other than the one recommended

by Volvo, follow the instructions supplied with

the equipment.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE

Jacking points (arrows) for the jack that belongs to the car and lifting points (marked in red).

If the car is raised with a front workshop jack

then this must be positioned under one of the

two lifting points furthest in under the car. If the

car is raised with a rear workshop jack then it

must be positioned under one of the lifting

points. Ensure that the workshop jack is posi-

tioned so that the car cannot slide off the jack.

Always use axle stands or similar.

If the car is raised with a two-pillar workshop lift

then the front and rear lifting arms can be posi-

tioned under the outer lifting points (jacking

points). Alternatively, the inner lifting points can

be used at the front.
