Temporary spare
The spare tire in your vehicle is called a "Temporary Spare".
Recommended tire pressure (see the placard on the B-pillar or on the fu\
el filler door) should be
maintained irrespective of which position on the vehicle the temporary s\
pare tire is used on.
In the event of damage to this tire, a new one can be purchased from you\
r Volvo retailer.
WARNING!
Current legislation prohibits the use of the "Temporary Spare" tire othe\
r than as a temporary
replacement for a punctured tire. It must be replaced as soon as possibl\
e by a standard tire. Road
holding and handling may be affected with the "Temporary Spare" in use. \
Do not exceed 50 mph (80
km/h). Do not drive farther than 50 miles (80 km) on a temporary spar\
e tire.
CAUTION!
The vehicle must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or wi\
th a spare tire other than the
one that came with the vehicle. The use of different size wheels can ser\
iously damage your vehicle's
transmission.

CAUTION!
- The vehicle must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or \
with a spare tire other than
the one that came with the vehicle. The use of different size wheels can\
seriously damage your
vehicle's transmission.
- Correct tightening torque on wheel bolts must be observed. The wheel b\
olts should never be greased
or lubricated. The extended, chromed wheel bolts must not be used with s\
teel rims, as they make it
impossible to fit the hub caps.
- Locking wheel bolts can be used on both aluminum and steel wheels. If \
hub caps are used on steel
wheels, the locking wheel bolt should be mounted in the hole as far from\
the tire's inflation valve as
possible. It would otherwise not be possible to mount the hub cap on the\
wheel.

simultaneously guiding the base of the jack to the ground. The base of t\
he jack must be flat on a level,
firm, non-slippery surface. Before raising the vehicle, check that the j\
ack is still correctly positioned in
the attachment.
- Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be changed is lifted off the grou\
nd.
- Unscrew the wheel bolts completely and carefully remove the wheel so a\
s not to damage the threads on
the studs.
