Always follow the chain manufacturer's installation instructions carefully. Install chains as tightly as possible and
retighten periodically.
Never exceed the chain manufacturer's specified maximum speed limit. In no case should you exceed 31 mph (50
km/h).
Avoid bumps, holes or sharp turns when driving with snow chains.
Vehicle handling can be adversely affected when driving with chains. Avoid fast maneuvering and hard braking.
Never allow the wheels to lock up during braking.
* V70R - Volvo offers specially designed chains that can be used on 225/45/R17 tires.
Snow tires, studded tires **
Tires for winter use:
Owners who live in or regularly travel through areas with sustained periods of snow or icy driving conditions
are strongly advised to fit suitable winter tires to help retain the highest degree of traction. It is important to
install winter tires on all four wheels to help retain traction during cornering, braking, and accelerating. Failure to do
so could reduce traction to an unsafe level or adversely affect handling. Volvo does not recommend tire rotation.
However, as with any other radial tires, if rotated, the tires must be kept on the same side of the car so that they
revolve in the same direction as before rotation.
Volvo recommends the use of winter tires with the following dimensions:
Non-turbo models: 195/65 R15
Turbo models (not V70 or V70R): 205/55 R16
V70: 215/65 R16
V70R: 225/45/R17
Winter tires wear more quickly on dry roads in warm weather. They should be removed when the winter driving
season has ended.
Studded tires should be run-in 300-600 miles (500-1000 km) during which the car should be driven as smoothly as
possible to give the studs the opportunity to seat properly in the tires. The tires should have the same rotational
direction throughout their entire lifetime. In other words, if you wish to rotate the wheels, make sure that the same
wheels are always on the same side of the car.
NOTE: Please consult state or provincial regulations restricting the use of studded winter tires before installing such
tires.
** Where permitted.

Insert flat end of lug wrench and turn/pull straight out
Changing wheels
The spare wheel is located under the carpet on the cargo area floor. The optional subwoofer, located under the cargo
area floor, must be removed to allow access to the spare wheel. See page 72
for instructions. The jack and crank are
secured in the wheel recess.
There are two jack attachment points on each side of the car.
To change a wheel:
Engage the parking brake.
Put the gear selector in (P)ark.
Remove the wheel cap (where applicable) using the lug wrench in the tool bag.
With the car still on the ground, use the lug wrench to loosen the wheel bolts 1/2 - 1 turn by exerting downward
pressure. Turn the bolts counterclockwise to loosen.
Loosen wheel bolts
Position the jack on the bar in the attachment ( A in the illustration above) and crank while simultaneously guiding
the base of the jack to the ground. The base of the jack must be flat on a level, firm, non-slippery surface. Before
raising the car, check that the jack is still correctly positioned in the attachment.
Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be changed is lifted off the ground.
Unscrew the wheel bolts completely and carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the thread on the studs.
NOTE: See also page 135
for hoisting the vehicle on a garage lift!
WARNING!
The jack must correctly engage the bar in the jack attachment (A). The car's weight must not rest on the jack
Page 77 of 123

attachment (B). See illustration on page 115.
Be sure the jack is on a firm, level, non-slippery surface.
Never allow any part of your body to be extended under a car supported by a jack.
Use the jack intended for the car when replacing a wheel. For any other job, use stands to support the side of the
car being worked on.
Apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in the (P)ark position.
Block the wheels standing on the ground, use rigid wooden blocks or large stones.
The jack should be kept well-greased.
pg. 115 Changing wheels
Attaching the jack
NOTE: To avoid excessive wear and the necessity of rebalancing, mark and reinstall wheels in the same location and
position as before removal. To lessen the chance of imbalance, each wheel hub is equipped with a guide stud to ensure
that a removed wheel can be reinstalled in its original position (as when changing over to winter tires/wheels).
NOTE: Refer to page 135
for hoisting the vehicle on a garage lift.
Jack for AWD models
CAUTION:
The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with
the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car's transmission.
Correct tightening torque on wheel bolts must be observed. The wheel bolts should never be greased or lubricated.
The extended, chromed wheel bolts must not be used with steel rims, as they make it impossible to fit the hub caps.
