Jack*
Use the jack to raise the car when changing a wheel.
Only use the original jack when fitting a spare wheel or when changing between summer andwinter wheels. The jack's thread must always bewell greased.
IMPORTANT
The tools and jack * must be stored in the
intended location in the car's cargo area when not in use.
The jack needs to be cranked together to the correct position in order to have space.
NOTE
The normal car jack is only designed for occa- sional, short-term use, such as when chang-ing a wheel after a puncture, changing to win-ter/summer wheels, etc. Only the jack for thespecific car model may be used to raise thecar. If the car is to be jacked up more often, orfor a longer time than is required just tochange a wheel, use of a garage jack is rec-ommended. In this instance, follow theinstructions for use that come with the equip-ment.
Applies to cars with level control *
If the car is equipped with air suspension then this must be deactivated before the car is raisedwith the jack. Switch off the function via the centre display:1.

Dimension designation for wheel rim
Wheel and rim dimensions are designated in accordance with the examples in the tablebelow.
All wheel rims have a dimension designation, for example: 8.5Jx19x47.5.
8.5 Rim width in inches
J Rim flange profile
19 Rim diameter in inches
47,5 Off-set in mm (distance from wheel centre to wheel contact surface against the hub)
The car has an approval for the complete vehicle with certain combinations of wheel rims andtyres.

Dimension designation for tyre
Designations for tyre dimension, load index and speed rating.
The car has an approval for the complete vehicle with certain combinations of wheel rims andtyres.
Designation of dimensionsAll tyres have a dimension designation, such as:255/40 R19 100 W.
255 Tyre width (mm)
40 Ratio between tyre wall height and tyre width (%)
R Radial ply
19 Rim diameter in inches
100 Codes for the maximum permitted tyre load, tyre load index (LI)
W Speed rating for maximum permitted speed, speed rating (SS). (In this case 270 km/h (168 mph).)
Load indexEach tyre has a certain capacity to carry a load, a load index (LI). The car's weight determines theload capacity required of the tyres. The lowestpermitted load index is specified in a load indextable.
Speed ratingEach tyre can withstand a certain maximumspeed. Tyre speed rating, SS (Speed Symbol),must at least correspond with the car's topspeed. The table below shows the maximum per-mitted speed for each speed rating (SS). Theonly exception to these regulations is winter tyres3
, where a lower speed rating may be used.
If such a tyre is chosen, the car must not be driven faster than the speed rating of the tyre (forexample, class Q can be driven at a maximum of160 km/h (100 mph).) The top speed at whichthe car can be driven depends on road condi-tions, not the speed rating of the tyres.
NOTE
The maximum permitted speed is specified in the table.
Q 160 km/h (100 mph) (used only on win- ter tyres)
T 190 km/h (118 mph)
H 210 km/h (130 mph) V 240 km/h (149 mph)
W 270 km/h (168 mph) Y 300 km/h (186 mph)

The triangles in the plastic cover indicate the locations of the lifting points (marked in red).
If the car is raised with a workshop jack, it must be positioned under one of the four lifting points.Ensure that the workshop jack is positioned sothat the car cannot slide off the jack. Make surethe jack plate is equipped with a rubber pad sothat the car will be stable and not be damaged.Always use axle stands or similar.

Cleaning the exterior
The car should be washed as soon as it becomes dirty. This means that the car is easierto clean since the dirt does not attach as firmly.It also reduces the risk of scratches and keepsthe car fresh. Wash the car in a car wash with oilseparator. Use car shampoo.
Handwashing
• Remove bird droppings from the paintwork as soon as possible. Bird droppings containchemicals that affect and discolour paintworkvery quickly. For example, use soft paper orsponge soaked in plenty of water. An author-ised Volvo workshop is recommended for theremoval of any discoloration.
• Hose down the underbody.
• Rinse the entire car until the dissolved dirthas been removed so as to reduce the risk ofscratches from washing. Do not spray directlyonto the locks.
• If necessary, use cold degreasing agent onvery dirty surfaces. Note that in this case, thesurfaces must not be hot from the sun.
• Wash using a sponge, car shampoo andplenty of lukewarm water.
• Clean the wiper blades with a lukewarm soapsolution or car shampoo.
• Dry the car using a clean, soft chamois or awater scraper. If you avoid allowing drops ofwater to dry in strong sunlight, you reduce the risk of water drying stains which mayneed to be polished out.
WARNING
Always have the engine cleaned by a work- shop. There is a risk of fire if the engine is hot.
IMPORTANT
Dirty headlamps have impaired functionality. Clean them regularly, e.g. when refuelling. Do not use any corrosive cleaning agents but use water and a non-scratching spongeinstead.
NOTE
Outside lighting such as headlamps and rear lamps may temporarily have condensation onthe inside of the lens. This is normal, all exte-rior lighting is designed to withstand this.Condensation is normally vented out of thelamp housing when the lamp has beenswitched on for a time.
Automatic car washAn automatic car wash is a simple and quick way of washing the car, but it cannot reach every-where. Washing the car by hand is recommendedto achieve a good result, or to supplement auto-matic car washes with washing by hand.
NOTE
The car must only be washed by hand over the first few months. This is because the paintis more delicate when it is new.
IMPORTANT
Before driving the car into an automatic car wash, deactivate the functions for Automaticbraking when stationary (Auto Hold) andAutomatic application of parking brake. Ifthese functions are not deactivated, the brakesystem will jam when the car is stationary andthe car will not be able to move.
In car washes where the car is towed through with rolling wheels, the following applies:
1. Drive into the automatic car wash.
2. Deactivate the function for automatic braking
when stationary (Auto Hold) using the switch in the tunnel console.
3. Deactivate the function for automatic appli- cation of parking brake via the centre display.
4. Move the gear lever to position N.

550 5. Switch off the engine by turning the start
knob in the tunnel console to STOP. Hold
the knob in STOP position for at least
4 seconds.
> The car is ready for the automatic car wash.
IMPORTANT
The system will automatically switch to P
mode unless the above step is followed. The wheels are locked in P mode, which they
should not be when putting the car through an automatic car wash.
High-pressure washingWhen using high-pressure washing, use sweep- ing movements and make sure that the nozzledoes not come closer than 30 cm to the surfaceof the car. Do not spray directly onto the locks.
Testing the brakesLightly depress the brake pedal now and thenwhen driving long distances in rain or slush. Theheat from the friction causes the brake linings towarm up and dry. Do the same thing after startingin very damp or cold weather.
WARNING
Always test the brakes after washing the car, including the parking brake, to ensure thatmoisture and corrosion do not attack thebrake linings and reduce braking perform-ance.
Wiper bladesAsphalt, dust and salt residue on wiper blades, as well as insects, ice etc. on the windscreen, impairthe service life of wiper blades. When cleaning, set the wiper blades in service position.
NOTE
Wash the wiper blades and windscreen regu- larly with lukewarm soap solution or carshampoo. Do not use any strong solvents.
Exterior plastic, rubber and trim components
A special cleaning agent available from Volvo dealers is recommended for the cleaning andcare of coloured plastic parts, rubber and trimcomponents, e.g. glossy trim mouldings. Whenusing such a cleaning agent the instructionsmust be followed carefully. The frames around the side windows, the car's roof rails and the door frames at the windows *
are produced in anodised aluminium. This means that they should only be washed using a cleaning agent with a pH value between 3.5 and 11.5.This is in order to avoid discolouration.
Parts that should be washed using a cleaning agent with a pH value between 3.5 and 11.5.
IMPORTANT
Avoid waxing and polishing on plastic and rubber. When using degreasant on plastic and rubber, only rub with light pressure if it is necessary.Use a soft washing sponge. Polishing glossy trim mouldings could wear away or damage the glossy surface layer. Polishing agent that contains abrasive must not be used.
