wheel bolt torque VOLVO XC70 2007 Owners Manual

2007 Volvo XC70
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.

Changing wheels
- Position the jack correctly on the bar in the attachment (see illustr\
ation above) and crank while
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.
