Hoisting the vehicle
When hoisting the vehicle, it is important that the jack is positioned on the designatedpoints under the vehicle.
The triangles in the plastic covering indicate where the jack attachment points/lifting points (red areas) are located.
NOTE
For vehicles with Leveling Control* : If the
vehicle is equipped with pneumatic sus- pension, this feature must be turned offbefore the vehicle is lifted onto a tow truck.
NOTE
Volvo recommends only using the jack intended for your specific vehicle model. Ifa jack other than that recommended byVolvo is used, follow the instructionsincluded with the equipment.
The vehicle's ordinary jack is only intended to be used in temporary situations for shortperiods of time, such as when changingwheels in the event of a flat tire. If the vehi-cle needs to be lifted more frequently, orfor a longer period of time than for a wheelchange, a garage jack or hoist is recom-mended. Always follow the instructions foruse provided with the equipment.
