reading could occur in the fuel gauge.
· After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it clicks into place *.
· Avoid spilling gasoline during refueling. Gasolines containing alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which
may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
· Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol). This practice can result in vehicle
performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the fuel system. Such damage may not be covered under the
New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
· Do not overfill the fuel tank. Overfilling could damage the emission control system.
* If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running when the car is refueled, the Check Engine
Lamp may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo original or
approved fuel filler caps.
pg. 62 Driving economy
Economical driving conserves natural resources
Better driving economy may be obtained by thinking ahead, avoiding rapid starts and stops and adjusting the speed of
your vehicle to immediate traffic conditions. Observe the following rules:
· Bring the engine to normal operating temperature as soon as possible by driving with a light foot on the accelerator
pedal for the first few minutes of operation. A cold engine uses more fuel and is subject to increased wear.
· Whenever possible, avoid using the car for short trips. Short trips do not allow the engine to reach normal operating
temperature.
· Drive carefully and avoid rapid acceleration and hard braking.
· Do not exceed posted speed limits.
· Avoid carrying unnecessary items (extra load) in the car.
· Maintain correct tire pressure. Check tire pressure regularly (check when tires are cold).
· Remove snow tires when threat of snow or ice has ended.
· Note that roof racks, ski racks, etc., increase air resistance and thereby fuel consumption.

Changing a wheel
· Engage the parking brake.
· Put the gear selector in (P)ark.
· Get all the passengers to move to a safe place outside the car.
· Close all doors.
· Block the wheels remaining on the ground with wooden blocks, stones or something similar.
· Pull the wheel cover off the wheel (steel rims) or use the flat end of the lug wrench in the tool kit (1) (alloy rims) and
twist it to loosen the wheel cap (2).
· With the car still on the ground, use the lug wrench to loosen the wheel lugs 1/2 - 1 turn. Position the lug wrench so
that you apply force in a downward direction. Never lift up on the lug wrench to loosen or tighten lugs.
· Turn the bolts counterclockwise to loosen. If necessary, press down on the lug wrench with your foot to loosen the
lugs (3) .
CAUTION:
· The car must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the one that came with
the car. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your car'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.

Attaching the jack
There are two jack attachment points located on each side of the car. These attachment points are marked by arrows on
the outside of the cover over the bottom sill (see illustration).

· Position the jack under the two notches closest to the wheel to be changed (1).
· Attach the crank to the jack (C).
· Attach the lug wrench (D) to the crank.
· Raise the jack by cranking it clockwise. Be sure the jack engages the attachment point correctly.
The base of the jack must be flat on a level, firm, non-slippery surface. Before raising the car, check that the
jack is still correctly positioned in the attachment point.
· Raise the car until the wheel to be changed is lifted off the ground.
· Unscrew the wheel bolts completely and carefully remove the wheel so as not to damage the thread on the studs.
WARNING!
The jack must be correctly placed in the jack attachment.

crosswise and tighten until snug by turning clockwise. Lower the vehicle to the ground and alternately tighten the bolts
to 81 ft. lbs. (110 Nm). Install the wheel cover (where applicable).
