Spare wheel11
The spare wheel is a Temporary spare and can be used to temporarily replace a punctured tireon 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 possi-ble. The driving characteristics of the vehicle change and ground clearance reduces when the sparewheel is used. Do not wash the vehicle in anautomatic car wash while using the TemporarySpare. The recommended tire pressure must be main- tained regardless of at which position the tempo-rary spare wheel is used on the vehicle. If the spare wheel is damaged, a new one can be purchased from a Volvo retailer.
WARNING
Current legislation prohibits the use of the "Temporary Spare" tire other than as a tem-porary replacement for a punctured tire. Itmust be replaced as soon as possible by astandard tire. Road holding and handling maybe affected with the "Temporary Spare" inuse. Do not drive faster than 80 km/h(50 mph).

WARNING
•The vehicle must never be driven with more than one "Temporary spare" tiremounted.
• Driving with a spare wheel may alter thedriving characteristics of the vehicle.Replace the spare wheel with a normalwheel as soon as possible.
• The spare wheel is smaller than the nor-mal wheel, which affects the vehicle'sground clearance. Watch for high curbsand do not wash the vehicle in an auto-matic car wash when a spare wheel ismounted.
• Follow the manufacturer's recommendedtire inflation pressure for the spare wheel.
• On all-wheel drive vehicles, the drive onthe rear axle can be disconnected.
• If the spare wheel is mounted on thefront axle, snow chains must not be used.
• The spare wheel must not be repaired.
CAUTION
The vehicle must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire otherthan the one that came with the vehicle. Theuse of different size wheels can seriouslydamage your vehicle's transmission.
This illustration is general. The shape and design of the foam block may vary depending on vehicle model.
The spare wheel is located in the spare wheel well with the outside of the wheel facing down-ward. The same bolt runs through both the sparewheel and foam block to hold them into place.The foam block contains all tools needed tochange a wheel.

7. Connect the electrical cable to the nearest
12 V outlet and start the vehicle.
NOTE
Make sure that none of the vehicle's other 12 V sockets are used while the compressoris running.
WARNING
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle while the engine is running. 8. Start the compressor by moving the switch to
the I (On) position.
WARNING
Never stand next to a tire being inflated with the compressor. If cracks, bulges, etc. form onthe tire, switch off the compressor immedi-ately. The vehicle should not be driven. Callroadside assistance to have the vehicle towedto a workshop for inspection/replacement ofthe tire. Volvo recommends an authorizedworkshop.
NOTE
When the compressor first starts, air pressure may temporarily increase up to 6 bar (88 psi)but should decrease again after approxi-mately 30 seconds.
9. Inflate the tire for 7 minutes.
CAUTION
To help avoid overheating, the compressor should never be used for more than10 minutes at a time.
10. Switch off the compressor and check the
inflation pressure using the air pressure gauge. The inflation pressure should bebetween 1.8 bar (22 psi) and 3.5 bar(51 psi). If the inflation pressure is too high,use the air release valve to release air.
WARNING
If the bottle is not removed in the correct order, sealant could spill out.
WARNING
If pressure falls below 1.8 bar (22 psi), the hole in the tire may be too large. The vehicleshould not be driven. Call roadside assistanceto have the vehicle towed to a workshop forinspection/replacement of the tire. Volvo rec-ommends an authorized workshop.
11. Switch off the compressor and remove the electrical cable.
12. Unscrew the hose from the tire's valve and screw the valve cap back on.

54414. Immediately drive the vehicle at least 3 km
(2 miles) at a maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph) to allow the sealing compound toseal the tire, and then recheck the inflationpressure.
NOTE
During the tire's first revolution, some sealing compound may spray out of the puncturehole.
WARNING
Before driving away, make sure that no one is near the vehicle who could be sprayed withsealing compound. Make sure no one iswithin 2 meters(7 feet) of the vehicle.
15. Rechecking the inflation pressure Connect the hose to the tire's valve and screw the hose connector onto the valve asfar as possible. The compressor must beswitched off. 16. Check the inflation pressure on the air pres-
sure gauge.
• If the pressure is under 1.3 bar (19 psi),the tire is not sufficiently sealed. The vehi-cle should not be driven. Call roadsideassistance to have the vehicle towed.
• If the inflation pressure is higher than1.3 bar (19 psi), the tire must be inflatedto the inflation pressure specified on thetire pressure decal on the driver's sidedoor pillar (1 bar = 100 kPa = 14.5 psi). Ifthe inflation pressure is too high, use theair release valve to release air.
NOTE
Replace the sealing compound bottle and hose after use. Volvo recommends havingthese replaced by an authorized Volvo work-shop.
WARNING
Check inflation pressure regularly.
Volvo recommends driving to the nearest author- ized Volvo workshop to have the tire replaced/repaired. Inform the workshop that the tire con-tains sealing compound.
WARNING
After using the tire sealing system, the vehicle should not be driven farther than approxi-mately 200 km (120 miles).
NOTE
The compressor is an electric device. Follow local regulations for disposal.

LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT
}}
* Option/accessory.555
Cargo compartment The vehicle has a flexible cargo compartment that makes it possible to carry and secure largeobjects.
The cargo capacity of the vehicle can be consid- erably increased by folding down the rear seatbackrests. Use the load anchoring eyelets or gro-cery bag holders to help secure objects in place, and the retractable cargo compartment cover * to
help conceal objects in the cargo compartment. The towing eyelet and tire sealing system, or the temporary spare tire *, are located under the
cargo compartment floor.

• Installing and removing the cargo compart-ment cover
* (p. 558)
Loading recommendations
There are a number of things to consider when carrying loads in or on the vehicle.
Load-carrying capacity is determined by the vehi- cle's curb weight. The total weight of all passen-gers and any installed accessories reduces thevehicle's load-carrying capacity by the corres-ponding amount.
WARNING
The vehicle's driving characteristics change depending on the weight and position of theload.
Loading in the trunk and cargo compartment
• Position objects so they are pressing against the rear seat backrests.
• Distribute the load evenly.
• Heavy objects should be positioned as lowas possible. Avoid placing heavy objects onfolded-down seat backrests.
• Cover sharp corners with a soft cloth or simi-lar to help prevent damage to the upholstery.
• Use the load anchoring eyelets and tension-ing straps or similar to secure all objects.
WARNING
In a head-on collision at a speed of 50 km/h (30 mph), an unsecured object weighing 20kg (44 pounds) can reach a projectile weightequivalent to 1000 kg (2200 pounds).
WARNING
If objects are loaded higher than the upper edge of the side windows, leave a 10 cm (4in.) space between the objects and the win-dow. Objects placed closer to this couldimpede the function of the inflatable curtainconcealed inside the headlining.
WARNING
Always secure the load. Otherwise, it may shift during heavy braking and injure people in thevehicle. Cover sharp edges and sharp corners with something soft. Turn off the engine and apply the parking brake when loading/unloading long objects.Otherwise, it is possible for the load to reachthe gear lever or gear selector and move it toa drive position – which could cause the vehi-cle to begin rolling.
