Replacing Bulbs; Installing The Wheel - Volvo 760 Owner's Manual

1987 Volvo 760
carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the thread of the studs.
WARNING!
Be sure the jack is on firm and level ground.
Never allow any part of your body to be extended under a car supported by a jack.
Use the jack intended for the car when replacing a wheel. For any other job, use stands to support
the end of the car being worked on.
Apply the parking brake, select position P (automatic transmission), or 1st gear or reverse (manual
transmission).
Block the wheels standing on the ground. Use rigid wooden blocks or large stones.
The jack should be kept well-greased.

Installing the wheel

Clean the contact surfaces on the wheel and hub. Lift the wheel are place it on the hub. Make sure that
you align the wheel with the guide stud on the wheel hub prior to installation. Install the wheel nuts
clockwise and tighten lightly. The bevelled side of the nuts should face the wheel. Lower the vehicle to
the ground and alternately tighten the nuts to 63 ft. lbs. (85 Nm). Install the wheel cap.
Some models have a hub cap that extends to the wheel rim. The valve symbol on the inside of the hub
cap should be installed toward the valve.
pg. 73 Replacing bulbs
NOTE!
The method for replacement of bulbs in the various lighting units is shown on the following pages.
Make sure when installing bulbs, that the guide pin on the socket fits into its corresponding recess.
When installing Halogen bulbs, do not touch the glass with your fingers. The reason for this is that
grease, oil or any other impurities can be carbonized onto the bulb and damage the reflector.
Use bulbs of correct type and voltage. Failure to do so could cause the bulb failure warning light to
activate.
