Load carriers (models with rails)
Load carrier cover
The car's ignition key or the stud on the edge
of the supplied torque wrench can be used to
undo or tighten the cover. Turn a quarter turn
(90 degrees). See illustration.
Fitting the load carriers
(accessory)
Make sure that the load carrier is pressed
firmly out against the roof rail. Screw the load
carrier in place. Use the supplied torque
wrench and tighten to the mark on the wrench
(corresponding to 6 Nm). See illustration.
Position of load carriers
Make sure that the wing-shaped load carriers
are installed on the roof rails with the rounded
edge forward (see the inset illustration above).
The load carriers are identical and can be
placed anywhere along the roof rails.

WARNING!
•Bumper-attached trailer hitches must not be used on Volvo’s, nor
should safety chains be attached to the bumper.
•Trailer hitches attaching to the vehicle rear axle must not be used.•Never connect a trailer’s hydraulic brake system directly to the
vehicle brake system, nor a trailer’s lighting system directly to the
vehicle lighting system. Consult your nearest authorized Volvo
retailer for correct installation.
•When towing a trailer, the trailer’s safety wire must be correctly
fastened to the hole or hook provided in the trailer hitch on the car.
The safety wire should never be fastened to or wound around the
drawbar ball.
NOTE:
•When parking the car with a trailer on a hill, apply the parking
brake before putting the gear selector in (P)ark or reverse on
models with a manual transmission. Always follow the trailer
manufacturer's recommendations for wheel chocking.
•When starting on a hill, put the gear selector in (D)rive before
releasing the parking brake.
•If you use the manual (Geartronic) shift positions while towing a
trailer, make sure the gear you select does not put too much strain
on the engine (using too high a gear).
•The drawbar assembly/trailer hitch may be certified for trailers that
are heavier than the car is designed to tow. Please adhere to Volvo’s
recommended trailer weights.
* When driving for prolonged periods at temperatures above 86° F
(30° C), the maximum recommended weight is 2000 lbs (900 kg).
When preparing for trailer towing, observe
the following:
Volvo recommends the use of Volvo trailer hitches which are specially
designed for the car.

CAUTION!
•Not checking the oil level regularly can
result in serious engine damage if the oil
level becomes too low.
•Oil that is lower than the specified quality
can damage the engine.
•Always add oil of the same type and
viscosity as already used.
•Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This
could cause an increase in oil consump-
tion.
R-models
R-models are equipped with an oil level
warning system. If the engine oil level
becomes too low, the warning light in the
instrument panel will come on and a warning
will be displayed in the text window.
