IntroductionThe load carrying capacity of your vehicle is
determined by factors such as the number of
passengers, the amount of cargo, the weight
of any accessories that may be installed, etc.
To increase loading space, the rear seat backr-
ests can be folded down, See page 82.
When loading the trunk, keep the following in
mind:
The trunk lid can be unlocked an pop-
ped open slightly via the button
located on the lighting panel, see page 62.•
Load objects in the trunk against the back-
rest whenever possible.

Unstable loads can be secured to the load
anchoring eyelets with straps or web lash-
ings to help keep them from shifting.

Stop the engine and apply the parking
brake when loading or unloading long
objects. The gear selector can be knocked
out of position by long loads, which could
set the vehicle in motion.
WARNING

Stop the engine, put the gear selector in
P, and apply the parking brake when
loading or unloading long objects.

The vehicle's driving characteristics
may change depending on the weight
and distribution of the load.

A 44-pound (20 kg) object produces a
force of 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg) in a
headon collision at 30 mph (50 km/h).

The rear seat should not be loaded to a
level higher than 2 in. (5 cm) below the
upper edge of the rear side windows.
Objects placed higher than this level
could impede the function of the Volvo
Inflatable Curtain.
Load anchoring eyelets
G021462
The load anchoring eyelets on both sides of the
vehicle are used to fasten straps, etc., to help
anchor items in the trunk.

06 Maintenance and specifications
Fuses
06``233 Replacing fuses
There are relay/fuse boxes located in the
engine compartment, the passenger compart-
ment, and the trunk.
If an electrical component fails to function, this
may be due to a blown fuse. The easiest way
to see if a fuse is blown is to remove it.
To do so:
1. Pull the fuse straight out. If a fuse is difficult
to remove, special fuse removal tools are
located on the inside of the fuse box cov-
ers.
2. From the side, examine the curved metal
wire in the fuse to see if it is intact.
If the wire is broken, insert a new fuse of the
same color and amperage (written on the fuse).
If fuses burn out repeatedly, have the electrical
system inspected by a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician.
WARNING
Never use metal objects or fuses with higher
amperage than those stated on the follow-
ing pages. Doing so could seriously damage
or overload the vehicle's electrical system.

Tire Sealing System
G014340
IntroductionCertain models are equipped with a tire sealing
system that enables you to temporarily seal a
hole in the tread surface and re-inflate a flat tire,
or to adjust a tire’s inflation pressure.
The system consists of an air compressor, a
container for the sealing compound, wiring to
connect the system to the vehicle’s electrical
system via one of the 12-volt sockets, and a
hose used to connect the system to the tire’s
inflation valve.
The 12-volt sockets are located in the front
tunnel console and on the rear side of the cen-
ter console in the rear seat, see page 189.
Accessing the tire sealing systemThe tire sealing system is stowed under the
floor of the trunk. To access it:
1. Fold up or remove any protective floor cov-
ering or carpet.
2. Open the floor hatch.
3. Remove the retaining screws.
4. Lift out the foam plastic block holding the
jack and lug wrench.
5. Lift out the tire sealing system.
NOTE

The tire sealing system is only intended
to seal holes on the tire’s tread area, not
the sidewall.

Tires with large holes or tears cannot be
repaired with the tire sealing system.
