06 Starting and drivingAll Wheel Drive (option)
06142
All Wheel Drive (AWD) – general
informationYour Volvo can be equipped with an electron-
ically controlled All Wheel Drive system
(option), which means that power is distributed
automatically between the front and rear
wheels. Under normal driving conditions, most
of the engine's power is directed to the front
wheels. However, if there is any tendency for
the front wheels to spin, an electronically con-
trolled coupling distributes power to the
wheels that have the best traction.Tire dimensionsVolvo recommends that you always drive on
tires of the same brand, size, construction
(radial), tread pattern, load-, speed-, traction-,
temperature-, and treadwear rating. Never
drive on mixed tires, except for brief periods
when the temporary spare tire is in use.
Always use properly inflated tires of correct
dimensions. Tire size and inflation pressures
are shown on the tire inflation pressure plac-
ards, located on the driver's side B-pillar (the
structural member at the side of the vehicle, at
the rear of the driver's door opening), or on the
inside of the fuel filler door on Canadian mod-
els.
Temporary SpareThe temporary spare tire is for temporary, low-
speed, short-distance use only. Replace it with
a full-sized tire as soon as possible. Do not
drive on the temporary spare at speeds above
50 m.p.h. (80 km/h).
NOTE
Never install snow chains on a temporary
spare.

07 Wheels and tiresTemporary spare
07178
The spare tire in your vehicle is called a "Tem-
porary Spare".
Recommended tire pressure (see the placard
on the B-pillar or on the fuel filler door) should
be maintained irrespective of which position on
the vehicle the temporary spare tire is used.
In the event of damage to this tire, a new one
can be purchased from your Volvo retailer.
WARNING
Current legislation prohibits the use of the
"Temporary Spare" tire other than as a tem-
porary replacement for a punctured tire. It
must be replaced as soon as possible 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).
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 vehi-
cle. The use of different size wheels can
seriously damage your vehicle's transmis-
sion.

5. Continue to raise the wheel by turning the
crank clockwise. Raise the wheel a little bit
at a time and guide it around the rear axle
until it is securely seated in the storage
area.
6. When it is no longer possible to turn the
crank any further, check that the spare
wheel is securely in position in the storage
compartment.

Jack attachment pointsJack attachmentsThere are two attachment points for the jack on
each side of the vehicle. These attachment
points are under the center of each door.
WARNING
There is an attachment point on each side
of the vehicle located under the pillars
between the front and rear doors. This point
is used during the production process only,
and is NOT intended for attaching the jack.
G020332
WARNING
The undersides of accessory running
boards are not intended for attaching the
jack.
Changing a wheel•
Park the vehicle on a firm, level, non-slip-
pery surface.
•
Engage the parking brake and put the gear
selector in the Park position.
•
Loosen the wheel bolts by exerting down-
ward pressure on the lug wrench.
•
Remove the wheel cap (where applicable)
using the lug wrench in the tool bag.
•
With the wheels still on the ground, use the
lug wrench to loosen the wheel bolts
1/2 – 1 turn. Turn the bolts counterclock-
wise to loosen the bolts.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 vehi-
cle's transmission.
•
Correct tightening torque on wheel
bolts must be observed.
•
The wheel bolts should never be
greased or lubricated.
•
Extended, chromed wheel bolts must
not be used with steel rims, as they
make it impossible to fit the hub caps.
