06 Starting and drivingAll Wheel Drive (option)
06134
All Wheel Drive (AWD) - general
informationYour Volvo can be equipped with permanent
All Wheel Drive, which means that power is
distributed automatically between the front
and rear wheels. Under normal driving condi-
tions, most engine's power is directed to the
front wheels. However, if there is any tendency
for the front wheels to spin, an electronically
controlled coupling distributes power to the
wheels that have the best traction.Tire dimensionsVolvo recommends that you always drive on
tires of the same brand, size, construction
(radial), tread pattern, load-, speed-, traction-,
temperature-, and treadwear rating. Never
drive on mixed tires, except for brief periods
when the temporary spare tire is in use.
Always use properly inflated tires of correct
dimensions. Tire size and inflation pressures
are shown on the tire inflation pressure plac-
ards, located on the driver's side B-pillar (the
structural member at the side of the vehicle, at
the rear of the driver's door opening), or on the
inside of the fuel filler door on Canadian mod-
els.
Temporary SpareThe temporary spare tire is for temporary, low-
speed, short-distance use only. Replace it with
a full-sized tire as soon as possible. Do not
drive on the temporary spare at speeds above
50 mph (80 km/h) or for distances greater than
50 miles (80 km).
Never install snow chains on a temporary
spare.

Temporary spare

167
The spare tire in your vehicle is called a "Tem-
porary Spare".
Recommended tire pressure (see the placard
on the B-pillar or on the fuel filler door) should
be maintained irrespective of which position on
the vehicle the temporary spare tire is used on.
In the event of damage to this tire, a new one
can be purchased from your Volvo retailer.
WARNING
Current legislation prohibits the use of the
"Temporary Spare" tire other than as a tem-
porary replacement for a punctured tire. It
must be replaced as soon as possible by a
standard tire. Road holding and handling
may be affected with the "Temporary
Spare" in use. Do not exceed 50 mph
(80 km/h).
CAUTION
The vehicle must not be driven with wheels
of different dimensions or with a spare tire
other than the one that came with the vehi-
cle. The use of different size wheels can
seriously damage your vehicle's transmis-
sion.

Insert flat end of lug wrench and turn/pull straight
outThe spare wheel is located under the carpet on
the trunk floor. The jack and crank are secured
in the wheel recess.
There are two jack attachment points on each
side of the vehicle (see illustration below).To change a wheel:1. Engage the parking brake.
2.
Put the gear selector in P (automatic trans-
mission) or reverse (manual transmission).
G020332
Loosen the wheel bolts3. Remove the wheel cap (where applicable)
using the lug wrench in the tool bag.
4. With the vehicle still on the ground, use the
lug wrench to loosen the wheel bolts 1/2 -
1 turn by exerting downward pressure.
Turn the bolts counterclockwise to loosen.
CAUTION
•
The vehicle must not be driven with
wheels of different dimensions or with a
spare tire other than the one that came
with the vehicle. The use of different size
wheels can seriously damage your vehi-
cle's transmission.
•
Correct tightening torque on wheel
bolts must be observed. The wheel
bolts should never be greased or lubri-
cated. The extended, chromed wheel
bolts must not be used with steel rims,
as they make it impossible to fit the hub
caps.
•
Locking wheel bolts can be used on
both aluminum and steel wheels. If hub
caps are used on steel wheels, the lock-
ing wheel bolt should be mounted in the
hole as far from the tire's inflation valve
as possible. It would otherwise not be
possible to mount the hub cap on the
wheel.
