MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Hoisting the vehicle
NOTE
When hoisting the vehicle, it is important that
the jack is positioned on the designated
points under the vehicle.
For vehicles with Leveling Control*: If the
vehicle is equipped with pneumatic suspen-
sion, this feature must be turned off before the
vehicle is lifted onto a tow truck.
Volvo recommends only using the jack
intended for your specific vehicle model. If
a jack other than that recommended by
Volvo is used, follow the instructions
included with the equipment.
The vehicle's ordinary jack is only intended
to be used in temporary situations for short
periods of time, such as when changing
wheels in the event of a flat tire. If the vehi-
cle needs to be lifted more frequently, or
for a longer period of time than for a wheel
change, a garage jack or hoist is recom-
mended. Always follow the instructions for
use provided with the equipment.
WARNING
If the vehicle is lifted on a garage jack, the
jack must be placed under one of the four
lifting points. Make sure that the vehicle is
correctly positioned on the jack and that it
cannot slide off. Make sure the jack plate
has a rubber pad to help keep the vehicle
stable and prevent damage. Always use
axle stands or similar.
