CAUTION
•
When not in use, the jack* should be kept
in its storage compartment under the
cargo compartment floor.
•
The jack provided with your vehicle is
intended to be used only in temporary sit-
uations such as changing wheels in the
event of a flat tire. Only the jack that
came with your particular model should
be used to lift the vehicle. If the vehicle
needs to be lifted more frequently or for a
prolonged period, using a garage jack or
hoist is recommended. Always follow this
device’s instructions for use.
Models with leveling control*
If the vehicle is equipped with the optional pneu-
matic suspension, this feature must be turned off
before raising the vehicle with the jack.
To do so, go to
Settings Vehicle
Deactivate Suspension & Leveling Control in
the center display's Top view.
Wheel bolts
The wheel bolts hold the wheel in place.
CAUTION
Wheel bolts should be tightened to 103 ft.
lbs. (140 Nm). Over-tightening could damage
the threads.
Only use wheels/rims that have been tested and
approved by Volvo and are included in Volvo's
product range. Use a torque wrench to check
that the wheel bolts are tightened correctly.
Locking wheel bolts*
A tool for removing locking wheel bolts can be
found in the foam block under the cargo com-
partment floor.
