car's towing eye, jack* and wheel wrench*.

Tools - returning into place
The tools and jack* must be returned to their
correct places after use. The jack needs to be
cranked together to the correct position in
order to have space.
The foam block and spare wheel are replaced
in the reverse order to taking out.
Note that there is an arrow on the upper foam
block. It must point forwards in the car.
IMPORTANT
The tools and jack* must be stored in the
intended location in the car's cargo area
when not in use.
NOTE
If the floor hatch in the cargo area floor is
not closed then privacy locking does not
work, see page 50.
Winter tyres
Volvo recommends winter tyres with particu-
lar dimensions. Tyre dimensions are depend-
ent on engine variant. When driving on winter
tyres, the correct type of tyres must be fitted
to all four wheels.
NOTE
Volvo recommends that you consult a
Volvo dealer about which wheel rim and
tyre types are most suitable.
Studded tyres
Studded winter tyres should be run in gently
for 500-1000 km so the studs settle properly
into the tyres. This gives the tyre, and espe-
cially the studs, a longer service life.
NOTE
The legal provisions for the use of studded
tyres vary from country to country.
