WHEELS AND TIRES  
Jack*  
Wheel bolts  
The wheel bolts hold the wheel in place on  
the wheel hub.  
Only use rims that have been tested and  
approved by Volvo and are included in Volvo's  
original product range.  
CAUTION  
The jack can be used to lift the vehicle to e.g.  
change a wheel.  
When not in use, the jack* should be  
kept in its storage compartment under  
the cargo compartment floor.  
The jack provided with your vehicle is  
intended to be used only in temporary  
situations such as changing wheels in  
the event of a flat tire. Only the jack  
that came with your particular model  
should be used to lift the vehicle. If the  
vehicle needs to be lifted more fre-  
quently or for a prolonged period, using  
a garage jack or hoist is recommended.  
Always follow this device's instructions  
for use.  
Use a torque wrench to check that the wheel  
bolts are tightened correctly.  
Do not grease the wheel bolt threads.  
WARNING  
The wheel bolts may need to be tightened  
again several days after a wheel change.  
Temperature fluctuations and vibrations  
can cause them to loosen slightly.  
The jack needs to be cranked together to the  
correct position in order to fit.  
CAUTION  
The wheel bolts should be tightened to  
140 Nm (103 ft. lbs.). Over-tightening or  
under-tightening could damage the threa-  
ded joints.  
For vehicles with Leveling Control*: If the  
vehicle is equipped with the optional pneu-  
matic suspension, it must be turned off before  
the vehicle is lifted on a jack.

WHEELS AND TIRES  
1. Turn on the vehicle's hazard warning  
flashers if a wheel change must be per-  
formed in an area with traffic.  
Removing a wheel  
WARNING  
Wheel changes must always be carried out  
correctly. The following instructions show  
how to remove a wheel and what is impor-  
tant to keep in mind.  
Apply the parking brake and put the  
gear selector in the Park (P) position.  
2. Apply the parking brake and put the gear  
selector in P, or first gear if the vehicle has  
a manual transmission.  
Block the wheels standing on the  
ground, use rigid wooden blocks or  
large stones.  
CAUTION  
For vehicles with Leveling Control*: If the  
vehicle is equipped with pneumatic sus-  
pension, this must be switched off before  
the vehicle is lifted with the jack*.  
When not in use, the jack* should be  
kept in its storage compartment under  
the cargo compartment floor.  
Check that the jack is not damaged,  
the threads are properly lubricated and  
it is free from dirt.  
The jack provided with your vehicle is  
intended to be used only in temporary  
situations such as changing wheels in  
the event of a flat tire. Only the jack  
that came with your particular model  
should be used to lift the vehicle. If the  
vehicle needs to be lifted more fre-  
quently or for a prolonged period, using  
a garage jack or hoist is recommended.  
Always follow this device's instructions  
for use.  
Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-  
slippery surface and that it is upright  
and not leaning.  
3. Take out the jack*, lug wrench* and tool for  
removing the plastic covers, which are  
stowed in the foam block.  
The jack must correctly engage in the  
jack attachment.  
No objects should be placed between  
the base of the jack and the ground, or  
between the jack and the attachment  
bar on the vehicle.  
Never let anyone remain in the vehicle  
when it is raised on a jack.  
If a tire must be changed near passing  
traffic, make sure all passengers move  
to a safe location.  
Use a jack intended for the vehicle  
when changing a tire. For any other  
job, use stands to support the vehicle.  
Tool for removing the plastic covers on the wheel  
bolts.  
4. Place chocks in front of and behind the  
wheels that are still on the ground. For  
example, use heavy wooden blocks or  
large stones.  
Never crawl under or allow any part of  
your body to be extended under a vehi-  
cle supported by a jack.

5. Using the lug wrench, screw the towing  
eye into place as far as possible according  
to the instructions.  
8. When hoisting the vehicle, it is important  
that the jack or garage lift arms are posi-  
tioned on the designated points under the  
vehicle. The triangle markings on the plas-  
tic cover indicate where the jack attach-  
ment points/lifting points are located.  
There are two jack attachment points on  
each side of the vehicle. There is a groove  
for the jack at each attachment point.  
10. Crank it up until it is properly aligned and  
it is in contact with the vehicle's jack  
attachment point. Make sure the top of  
the jack (or the garage lift arms) is cor-  
rectly positioned in the attachment point,  
with the bump on the top of the jack in the  
recess in the attachment point and the  
base positioned vertically under the  
attachment point.  
11. Turn the jack so that the crank is as far as  
possible from the side of the vehicle,  
which will position the jack's arms per-  
pendicular to the vehicle's direction of  
movement.  
CAUTION  
12. Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be  
changed can move freely. Unscrew the  
wheel bolts and lift off the wheel.  
The towing eyelet must be screwed into  
the lug wrench* as far as possible.

point being used, ensuring that the sur-  
face is firm, flat and not slippery.

The vehicle must be raised high enough so  
that the wheel you are removing can turn  
freely.  
CAUTION  
When not in use, the jack* should be  
kept in its storage compartment under  
the cargo compartment floor.  
Check that the jack is not damaged,  
the threads are properly lubricated and  
it is free from dirt.  
1. Clean the contact surfaces between the  
wheel and the wheel hub.

slippery surface and that it is upright  
and not leaning.  
Do not grease the wheel bolt threads.  
The jack must correctly engage in the  
jack attachment.

NOTE  
The spare wheel is a Temporary Spare and  
can be used to temporarily replace a punc-  
tured tire on one of the vehicle's regular  
wheels.  
The spare tire is only intended for temporary  
use. Replace it with a normal wheel as soon as  
possible.  
After inflating a tire, always replace the  
valve cap to help prevent valve damage  
caused by gravel, dirt, etc.  
tightened. Tighten to 140 Nm (103 ft. lbs.).  
Use a torque wrench to check torque.  
Use plastic valve caps only. Metal caps  
could corrode and become difficult to  
remove.  
The driving characteristics of the vehicle  
change and ground clearance reduces when  
the spare wheel is used. Do not wash the vehi-  
cle in an automatic car wash while using the  
Temporary Spare.

WARNING  
Current legislation prohibits the use of the  
"Temporary Spare" tire other than as a  
temporary replacement for a punctured  
tire. It must be replaced as soon as possi-  
ble by a standard tire. Road holding and  
handling may be affected with the "Tempo-  
rary Spare" in use. Do not drive faster than  
80 km/h (50 mph).  
WARNING  
The wheel bolts may need to be tightened  
again several days after a wheel change.  
Temperature fluctuations and vibrations  
can cause them to loosen slightly.

Handling spare tires  
Follow these instructions regarding handling  
the spare wheel.  
WARNING  
CAUTION  
The vehicle must never be driven with  
more than one "Temporary Spare" tire  
mounted.  
The vehicle must not be driven with wheels  
of different dimensions or with a spare tire  
other than the one that came with the vehi-  
cle. The use of different size wheels can  
seriously damage your vehicle's transmis-  
sion.  
Accessing the spare wheel  
Driving with a spare wheel may alter  
the driving characteristics of the vehi-  
cle. Replace the spare wheel with a  
normal wheel as soon as possible.  
The spare wheel is smaller than the  
normal wheel, which affects the vehi-  
cle's ground clearance. Watch for high  
curbs and do not wash the vehicle in  
an automatic car wash when a spare  
wheel is mounted.  
Related information  
When changing wheels (p. 522)  
Recommended tire pressure (p. 517)  
Follow the manufacturer's recom-  
mended tire inflation pressure for the  
spare wheel.  
This illustration is generic and appearance may vary.  
The spare tire is located in the spare wheel  
well under the cargo compartment with the  
outside of the wheel facing downward. The  
spare tire is secured with a bolt that goes  
through the tire and attaches it to the body.  
The foam block contains all tools needed to  
change a wheel.  
On all-wheel drive vehicles, the drive  
on the rear axle can be disconnected.  
If the spare wheel is mounted on the  
front axle, snow chains must not be  
used.  
The spare wheel must not be repaired.  
1. Lift the rear edge of the cargo compart-  
ment floor.  
2. Unscrew the retaining bolt.  
3. Lift out the spare wheel.
