WHEELS AND TYRES
08 Wheels and tyres

Driving characteristics
Tyres greatly affect the car's driving characte-
ristics. The type of tyre, dimensions, tyre pres-
sure and speed rating are important for how the
car performs.
Direction of rotation
G021778
The arrow shows the tyre's direction of rotation.
Tyres with a tread pattern which are designed
to only turn in one direction have the direction
of rotation marked with an arrow. The tyre must
always rotate in the same direction throughout
its lifespan. Tyres should only be switched
between front and rear positions, never
between left and right-hand sides, or vice
versa. If the tyres are fitted incorrectly, the car's
braking characteristics and capacity to force
rain and slush out of the way are adversely
affected.
Tyres with the greatest tread depth should
always be fitted to the rear of the car (to
decrease the risk of skidding).
NOTE
Ensure that tyres of the same type and
dimensions, and also the same make, are
fitted to all four wheels.
Follow the recommended tyre pressures
specified in the tyre pressure table, see
page 388.
Tyre care
Tyre age
All tyres older than 6 years old should be
checked by an expert even if they seem
undamaged. Tyres age and decompose, even
if they are hardly ever or never used. The func-
tion can therefore be affected. This applies to
all tyres that are stored for future use. Exam-
ples of external signs which indicate that the
tyre is unsuitable for use are cracks or discol-
oration.
New tyres
Tyres are perishable. After a few years they
begin to harden at the same time as the friction
capacity/characteristics gradually deteriorate.
For this reason, aim to get as fresh tyres as
possible when you replace them. This is espe-
cially important with regard to winter tyres. The
last four digits in the sequence mean the week
and year of manufacture. This is the tyre's
DOT marking (Department of Transportation),
and this is stated with four digits, for example
1510. The tyre in the illustration was manufac-
tured in week 15 of 2010.
Summer and winter tyres
When summer and winter wheels are changed
the wheels should be marked with which side
of the car they were mounted on, for example
L for left and R for right.

Wear and maintenance
The correct tyre pressure results in more even
wear, see page 317. Driving style, tyre pres-
sure, climate and road condition affect how
quickly your tyres age and wear. To avoid dif-
ferences in tread depth and to prevent wear
patterns arising, the front and rear wheels can
be switched with each other. A suitable dis-
tance for the first change is approx. 5000 km
and then at 10 000 km intervals. Volvo recom-
mends that you contact an authorised Volvo
workshop for checking if you are uncertain
about tread depth. If significant differences in
wear (>1 mm difference in tread depth)
between tyres have already occurred, the least
worn tyres must always be placed on the rear.
Understeer is normally easier to correct than
oversteer, and leads to the car continuing for-
wards in a straight line rather than having the
rear end skidding to one side, resulting in pos-
sible complete loss of control over the car. This
is why it is important for the rear wheels never
to lose grip before the front wheels.
Wheels should be stored lying down or hanging
up - and not standing up.
WARNING
A damaged tyre can lead to loss of control
of the car.
Tyres with tread wear indicators
G021829
Tread wear indicators.
Tread wear indicators are narrow treadless
bands across the width of the tread. On the
side of the tyre are the letters TWI (Tread Wear
Indicator). When the tyre's tread depth is down
to 1.6 mm, the tread depth will be level in height
with the tread wear indicators. Change to new
tyres as soon as possible. Remember that
tyres with little tread depth provide very poor
grip in rain and snow.
Rims and wheel bolts
IMPORTANT
The wheel bolts must be tightened to
140 Nm. Overtightening can damage the
nuts and the bolts.
Only use rims that are tested and approved by
Volvo and which are Volvo genuine accesso-
ries. Check the torque with a torque wrench.
Locking wheel bolts*
Locking wheel bolts* can be used on both alu-
minium and steel rims. Under the cargo area
floor there is space for the sleeve for the lock-
able wheel bolts.
Tools
Located under the cargo area floor are the
car's towing eye, jack* and wheel wrench*.
There is also space for the sleeve for the lock-
able wheel bolts.

Jack*
The original jack should only be used for
changing to the spare wheel. The jack's thread
must always be well greased.
Tools - returning into place
G029336
The tools and jack* must be returned to their
correct places after use. The jack needs to be
cranked together to the correct position in
order to have space.
IMPORTANT
The tools and jack* must be stored in the
intended location in the car's cargo area
when not in use.
Winter tyres
Volvo recommends winter tyres with particular
dimensions. Tyre dimensions are dependent
on engine variant. When driving on winter tyres,
the correct type of tyres must be fitted to all
four wheels.
NOTE
Volvo recommends that you consult a Volvo
dealer about which wheel rim and tyre types
are most suitable.
Studded tyres
Studded winter tyres should be run in gently for
500-1000 km so the studs settle properly into
the tyres. This gives the tyre, and especially the
studs, a longer service life.
NOTE
The legal provisions for the use of studded
tyres vary from country to country.
Tread depth
Road conditions with ice, slush and low tem-
peratures place considerably higher demands
on tyres than summer conditions. Volvo there-
fore recommends not to drive on winter tyres
that have a tread depth of less than 4 millime-
tres.
Using snow chains
Snow chains may only be used on the front
wheels (also applies to all-wheel drive cars).
Never drive faster than 50 km/h with snow
chains. Avoid driving on bare ground as this
wears out both the snow chains and tyres.
WARNING
Use Volvo genuine snow chains or equiva-
lent chains designed for the car model, and
tyre and rim dimensions. In the event of
uncertainty Volvo recommends that you
consult an authorised Volvo workshop. The
wrong snow chains may cause serious
damage to your car and lead to an accident.
Specifications
The car has whole vehicle approval. This
means that certain combinations of wheels and
tyres are approved. For the permissible com-
binations, see page 388
Wheel (rim) dimensions
Wheels (rims) have a designation of dimen-
sions, for example: 7Jx16x50.

97 Codes for the maximum permitted
tyre load, tyre load index (LI)
W Speed rating for maximum permitted
speed, speed rating (SS). (In this case
270 km/h).
Load index
Each tyre has a certain capacity to carry a load,
a load index (LI). The car's weight determines
the load capacity required of the tyres. Mini-
mum permitted index is specified in the table,
see page 388.
Speed ratings
Each tyre can withstand a certain maximum
speed, a speed rating (Speed Symbol; SS).
Tyre speed class must at least correspond with
the car's top speed. Minimum permitted speed
rating is specified in the table, see page 388.
The only exception to these conditions is win-
ter tyres (both those with metal studs and those
without), where a lower speed rating may be
used. If such a tyre is chosen, the car must not
be driven faster than the speed rating of the
tyre (for example, class Q can be driven at a
maximum of 160 km/h).
Traffic regulations determine how fast a car
can be driven, not the speed rating of the tyres.
NOTE
It is the maximum permitted speed that is
stated in the table.
Q 160 km/h (used only on winter tyres)
T 190 km/h
H 210 km/h
V 240 km/h
W 270 km/h
Y 300 km/h
WARNING
The car must be fitted with tyres which have
the same or a higher load index (LI) and
speed rating (SS) than specified. If a tyre
with too low a load index or speed rating is
used, it may overheat.

Spare wheel*
The following instructions are applicable
only if a spare wheel has been purchased as
an optional extra with the car. If the car does
not have a spare wheel, see page 321 for infor-
mation on temporary tyre sealing (TMK).
The spare wheel (Temporary spare) is only
intended for use temporarily and must be
replaced by an ordinary wheel as soon as pos-
sible. The car's handling may be altered by the
use of the spare wheel. The spare wheel is
smaller than the normal wheel. The car's
ground clearance is affected accordingly. Pay
attention to high kerbs and do not machine
wash the car. If the spare wheel is fitted on the
front axle, you cannot use snow chains at the
same time. On all-wheel drive cars the drive on
the rear axle can be disconnected. The spare
wheel must not be repaired. The correct tyre
pressure for the spare wheel is stated in the
tyre pressure table, see page 388.
IMPORTANT
Never drive faster than 80 km/h with a spare
wheel on the car.
IMPORTANT
The car must never be driven fitted with
more than one temporary spare wheel.
The spare wheel is supplied in a bag which
must be placed on the cargo area floor in the
cargo area and be secured with straps.
Cars with two load retaining eyelets.
Turn the handle on the spare wheel bag in
towards the rear seat. Attach the sewn-in ten-
sioning strap hooks in the load retaining eye-
lets. Attach the long strap into one of the load
retaining eyelets, run the strap around the
spare wheel and through the lower handle.
Tighten the short tensioning strap onto the long
one. Attach the second load retaining eyelet
and tighten.
Cars with four load retaining eyelets.
Turn the handle on the spare wheel bag out
towards you. Attach the sewn-in tensioning
strap hooks in the front load retaining eyelets.
Attach the long strap into one of the front load
retaining eyelets, run the strap diagonally over
the spare wheel and through the upper handle.
Tighten the short tensioning strap onto the long
one. Attach the rear load retaining eyelet and
tighten.
Taking out the spare wheel
1. Loosen the straps, lift out the spare wheel
from the cargo area and remove it from the
spare wheel bag.
2. Fold up the cargo area floor.
3. Lift the tools and jack out from the foam
block.

Removing
Set up the warning triangle, see page 318 if a
wheel must be replaced at a busy location. The
car and jack* must be on a firm horizontal sur-
face.
1. Apply the parking brake and engage
reverse gear, or position P if the car has an
automatic gearbox.
WARNING
Check that the jack is not damaged, that the
threads are thoroughly lubricated and that it
is free from dirt.
NOTE
Volvo recommends only using the jack* that
belongs to the car model in question, which
is indicated on the jack's label.
The label also indicates the jack's maximum
lift capacity at a specified minimum lifting
height.
2. Take out the jack*, wheel wrench* and
removal tool for wheel covers* located
under the cargo floor in the cargo area. If
another jack is selected, see page 328.
3. Place chocks in front of and behind the
wheels which will remain on the ground.
Use heavy wooden blocks or large stones
for example.
4. Cars with steel rims have removable wheel
covers. Use the removal tool to hook in and
pull off any full-wheel wheel covers. Alter-
natively, the wheel covers can be pulled
away by hand.
5. Screw together the towing eye with the
wheel wrench* until the stop position as
illustrated below.
IMPORTANT
The towing eye must be screwed into all
threads in the wheel bolt wrench.
6. Loosen the wheel bolts ½-1 turn anticlock-
wise with the wheel wrench.
WARNING
Never position anything between the
ground and the jack, nor between the jack
and the car's jacking point.
7. There are two jacking points on each side
of the car. There is a recess in the plastic
cover at each point. Crank the foot of the

jack down so it is pressed squarely on the
ground.
IMPORTANT
The ground must be firm, smooth and level.
8. Lift the car so that the wheel is free.
Remove the wheel bolts and lift off the
wheel.
Installation
1. Clean the contact surfaces between wheel
and hub.
2. Put on the wheel. Tighten the wheel bolts
thoroughly.
3. Lower the car so that the wheels cannot
rotate.
4. Tighten the wheel bolts crosswise. It is
important that the wheel bolts are tight-
ened properly. Tighten to 140 Nm. Check
the torque with a torque wrench.
5. Refit any full wheel covers.
NOTE
The wheel cover outlet for the valve must be
positioned over the valve on the wheel rim
during fitting.
WARNING
Never crawl under the car when it is raised
on the jack.
Passengers must leave the car when it is
raised on the jack.
Park the car so that passengers have the car
- or preferably a crash barrier - between
them and the road.
NOTE
The car's regular jack is designed only for
use occasionally and for a short time, such
as when changing a wheel with a punctured
tyre, switching between summer tyres and
winter tyres, etc. Only the jack belonging to
the specific model is to be used to jack up
the car. If the car is to be jacked up more
often, or for a longer time than is required
just to change a wheel, use of a garage jack
is recommended. In this instance, follow the
instructions for use that come with the
equipment.

Tyre pressure
G021830
The tyre pressure decal on the driver's side
door pillar (between frame and rear door)
shows which pressures the tyres should have
at different loads and speed conditions. This is
also specified in the tyre pressure table, see
page 388.
•

tyre dimension
•
ECO pressure

NOTE
Temperature differences change the
tyre pressure.
Fuel economy, ECO pressure
At speeds under 160 km/h, the general tyre
pressure is recommended (applies for both full
load and light load) in order to obtain optimum
fuel economy.
Checking the tyre pressure
The tyre pressures must be checked every
month.
Check tyre pressures on cold tyres. "Cold
tyres" means the tyres are the same tempera-
ture as the ambient temperature. After several
kilometres of driving, the tyres warm up and the
pressure increases.
Inadequate tyre pressure increases fuel con-
sumption, shortens tyre lifespan and impairs
the car's roadholding. Driving on tyres with tyre
pressure that is too low could result in the tyres
overheating and being damaged. Tyre pres-
sure affects travelling comfort, road noise and
steering characteristics.
NOTE
Tyre pressure decreases over time, this is a
natural phenomenon. Tyre pressure also
varies depending on ambient temperature.

triangle. Position the warning triangle in a suit-
able place with regard to traffic.
Ensure the warning triangle and its case are
properly secured in the cargo area after use.
NOTE
If the car has been locked with privacy lock-
ing then the boot lid/tailgate and floor hatch
cannot be opened, see page 49.

A case with first aid equipment is located under
the floor in the cargo area.
08 Wheels and tyres
Tyre pressure monitoring (TPMS)*
08
* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
319
General
TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System)*
warns the driver when the pressure is too low
in one or more of the car's tyres. It uses sensors
located inside the air valve in each wheel.
When the car is driven at about 40 km/h the
system detects the tyre pressure. If the pres-
sure is too low then a warning lamp
on the
instrument panel illuminates and a message is
shown on the display.
Only factory fitted wheels are equipped with
TPMS sensors in the valves.
If wheels without TPMS sensors are used then
Tyre press. syst Service required will be
shown every time the car is driven faster than
40 km/h for more than 10 minutes.
Always check the system after changing a
wheel in order to ensure that replacement
wheels work with the system.
For information on correct tyre pressures, see
page 388.
The system does not replace normal tyre main-
tenance.
IMPORTANT
If a fault should arise in the tyre pressure
system a warning lamp
on the instru-
ment panel will illuminate and a message
will be shown. This can be for various rea-
sons, e.g. fitting a wheel not equipped with
a sensor adapted for Volvo's tyre pressure
monitoring system.
Adjusting tyre pressure monitoring
Tyre pressure monitoring can be adjusted in
order to follow Volvo's tyre pressure recom-
mendations, when driving with a heavy load for
example.
NOTE
The engine must not be running when the
tyres are calibrated.
The settings are made with the control in the
centre console, see page 203.
1. Inflate the tyres to the required pressure
and select key position I or II.

Rectifying low tyre pressure
If a message for low tyre pressure is shown in
the display:
1. Check the tyre pressure in all four tyres.
2. Inflate the tyre(s) to the correct pressure.
3. Drive at least at 40 km/h for a total of at
least 1 minute and check that the message
disappears.

Recommendations
•
Volvo recommends that TPMS sensors are
fitted to all wheels on the car.
•
Volvo recommends that sensors are not
moved between different wheels.
WARNING
When inflating a tyre equipped with TPMS,
hold the nozzle of the pump directly against
the valve to avoid damaging the valve.
Driveable punctured tyres*
If Self Supporting run flat Tyres (SST)* have
been selected then the car is also equipped
with TPMS.
This type of tyre has a specially reinforced side
wall that makes continued driving possible to
a limited extent despite the tyre losing all or
some of its pressure. These tyres are fitted on
a special rim. (Normal tyres can also be fitted
to this rim).
If an SST tyre loses tyre pressure then the yel-
low TPMS lamp on the instrument panel illumi-
nates and a message is shown in the text
panel. If this occurs, reduce speed to
max. 80 km/h. The tyre must be replaced as
soon as possible.
Drive carefully, in some cases it can be difficult
to see which tyre is faulty. In order to establish
which tyre needs attention, check all four tyres.
WARNING
SST tyres should only be fitted by individu-
als with expertise on SST tyres.
SST tyres must only be fitted together with
TPMS.
After a fault message on low tyre pressure
has been shown, do not drive faster than
80 km/h.
Maximum driving distance to tyre change is
80 km.
Avoid hard driving such as sudden braking
or turning.
SST tyres must be replaced if they are dam-
aged or punctured.
08 Wheels and tyres
Emergency puncture repair (TMK)
08
321
General
Emergency puncture repair (TMK; Temporary
Mobility Kit) is used to seal a puncture and
check and adjust tyre pressure. It consists of a
compressor and a bottle with sealing fluid. The
kit works as a temporary repair. The sealing
fluid bottle must be replaced before its expira-
tion date and after use.
The sealing fluid effectively seals tyres punc-
tured in the tread.
NOTE
The emergency puncture repair kit is only
intended for sealing tyres with a puncture in
the tread.
The emergency puncture repair kit has limited
capacity to seal tyres which have punctures in
the wall. Do not seal tyres with the emergency
puncture repair kit if they have larger slits,
cracks or similar damage.
Connect the compressor to one of the car's 12
V sockets, see pages 229 and 293. Choose the
electrical socket that is nearest the punctured
tyre.
IMPORTANT
If the compressor for emergency puncture
repair is connected to one of the two sock-
ets in the tunnel console, see page 229, no
other current consumer must be connected
to the other one.
NOTE
The compressor for temporary emergency
puncture repair has been tested and
approved by Volvo.
Location of the emergency puncture
repair kit
Set up the warning triangle if a tyre is being
sealed in a trafficked location. The emergency
puncture repair kit is located under the floor in
the cargo area, see page 318.
WARNING
You should not drive faster than 80 km/h
after the emergency tyre repair kit has been
used. Volvo recommends that you visit an
authorised Volvo workshop for inspection of
the sealed tyre (maximum driving distance
is 200 km). The staff there can determine
whether or not the tyre can be repaired or if
it needs to be replaced.

that the sealing fluid can seal the tyre.
Rechecking the repair and pressure
1. Reconnect the equipment.
2. Read the tyre pressure on the pressure
gauge.
•
If it is below 1.3 bar then the tyre is
insufficiently sealed. The journey should
not be continued. Contact a tyre centre.
•
If the tyre pressure is higher than 1.3
bar, the tyre must be inflated to the pres-
sure specified in accordance with the
tyre pressure table, see page 388 (1
bar=100 kPa). Release air using the
