* Option/accessory.527
1. Clean the contact surfaces between the
wheel and the wheel hub.
2. Lift the wheel into place. Tighten the wheel bolts securely. Do not grease the wheel bolt threads.
3. Lower the vehicle so that the wheel cannot rotate.
4. Tighten the wheel bolts in a crisscross pat- tern (as shown in illustration). It is important that the wheel bolts are securely tightened.Tighten to a torque of 140 Nm (103 ft.lbs.).Use a torque wrench to check torque.
5. Press the plastic covers onto the wheel bolts.
WARNING
The wheel bolts may need to be tightened again several days after a wheel change.Temperature fluctuations and vibrations cancause them to loosen slightly.
NOTE
• After inflating a tire, always replace the valve cap to help prevent valve damagecaused by gravel, dirt, etc.
• Use plastic valve caps only. Metal capscould corrode and become difficult toremove.

Spare wheel11
The spare wheel is a Temporary spare and can be used to temporarily replace a punctured tireon one of the vehicle's regular wheels.
The spare tire is only intended for temporary use. Replace it with a normal wheel as soon as possi-ble. The driving characteristics of the vehicle change and ground clearance reduces when the sparewheel is used. Do not wash the vehicle in anautomatic car wash while using the TemporarySpare. The recommended tire pressure must be main- tained regardless of at which position the tempo-rary spare wheel is used on the vehicle. If the spare wheel is damaged, a new one can be purchased from a Volvo retailer.
WARNING
Current legislation prohibits the use of the "Temporary Spare" tire other than as a tem-porary replacement for a punctured tire. Itmust be replaced as soon as possible by astandard tire. Road holding and handling maybe affected with the "Temporary Spare" inuse. Do not drive faster than 80 km/h(50 mph).
11 Not available on all models.

WARNING
•The vehicle must never be driven with more than one "Temporary spare" tiremounted.
• Driving with a spare wheel may alter thedriving characteristics of the vehicle.Replace the spare wheel with a normalwheel as soon as possible.
• The spare wheel is smaller than the nor-mal wheel, which affects the vehicle'sground clearance. Watch for high curbsand do not wash the vehicle in an auto-matic car wash when a spare wheel ismounted.
• Follow the manufacturer's recommendedtire inflation pressure for the spare wheel.
• On all-wheel drive vehicles, the drive onthe rear axle can be disconnected.
• If the spare wheel is mounted on thefront axle, snow chains must not be used.
• The spare wheel must not be repaired.
CAUTION
The vehicle must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire otherthan the one that came with the vehicle. Theuse of different size wheels can seriouslydamage your vehicle's transmission.
This illustration is general. The shape and design of the foam block may vary depending on vehicle model.
The spare wheel is located in the spare wheel well with the outside of the wheel facing down-ward. The same bolt runs through both the sparewheel and foam block to hold them into place.The foam block contains all tools needed tochange a wheel.

Accessing the spare wheel
Follow these instructions regarding handling the spare wheel.
1. Lift the rear edge of the cargo compartment floor.
2. Unscrew the retaining bolt.
3. Lift out the foam block containing the tools.
4. Lift out the spare wheel.
Stowing a flat tire1. Take out the package containing the wheel bag from the foam block and put the wheel in the bag.
2. Return the tools to their correct positions in the foam block and put the foam block backin the vehicle.
3. Screw down the foam block with the retain- ing bolt and lower the cargo compartmentfloor.
4. Put the flat tire in the trunk/cargo compart- ment.

CAUTION
Snow chains can be used on the vehicle, with the following restrictions:• Volvo recommends not using snowchains on wheel dimensions larger than18 inches.
• Always follow the manufacturer's installa-tion instructions carefully. Install chainsas tightly as possible and retighten peri-odically.
• Only put snow chains on the front wheels(also applies to all-wheel drive vehicles).
• If accessory, aftermarket or "custom"tires and wheels with different dimen-sions than the original tires and wheelsare used, snow chains in some casesmay NOT be used. Sufficient distancebetween the chains and brakes, suspen-sion and body components must bemaintained.
• Check local regulations regarding the useof snow chains before installing.
• Never exceed the snow chain manufac-turer's specified maximum speed limit.Under no circumstances should youexceed 50 km/h (30 mph).
• Avoid bumps, holes or sharp turns whendriving with snow chains.
• Avoid driving on surfaces without snow as this wears out both the snow chains andthe tires.
• The handling of the vehicle can beadversely affected when driving withchains. Avoid fast or sharp turns as wellas locked wheel braking.
• Some types of strap-on chains affectbrake components and therefore mustNOT be used.
Consult a Volvo retailer for more information about snow chains.

Tire sealing system12
The temporary tire sealing system can be used to seal a puncture in a tire or to check andadjust the pressure in the tire. Models equipped with a spare wheel 13
do not
have the tire sealing system.
The tire sealing system consists of a compressor and a bottle containing sealing compound. Thesealing functions as a temporary repair.
NOTE
The sealing compound effectively seals tires with punctures in the tread but may not beable to fully seal tires with punctures in thesidewall. Do not use the tire sealing systemon tires with large tears, cracks or similardamage.
NOTE
The compressor is intended for temporary tire sealing and is approved by Volvo.
LocationThe tire sealing system is located in a foam block under the floor of the trunk.

LOADING, STORAGE AND PASSENGER COMPARTMENT
}}
* Option/accessory.543
Cargo compartment Loads can be secured in the trunk to keep them in place while driving.
The folding* rear seat backrests can help
increase the cargo capacity of the trunk. Load anchoring eyelets and grocery bag holders areprovided to help secure objects in place. The towing eyelet and tire sealing system, or the temporary spare tire *, are located under the
cargo compartment floor.

• Grocery bag holders (p. 544)
• Load anchoring eyelets (p. 545)
Loading recommendations
There are a number of things to consider when carrying loads in or on the vehicle.
Load-carrying capacity is determined by the vehi- cle's curb weight. The total weight of all passen-gers and any installed accessories reduces thevehicle's load-carrying capacity by the corres-ponding amount.
WARNING
The vehicle's driving characteristics change depending on the weight and position of theload.
Loading in the trunk and cargo compartment
• Position objects so they are pressing against the rear seat backrests.
• Distribute the load evenly.
• Heavy objects should be positioned as lowas possible. Avoid placing heavy objects onfolded-down seat backrests.
• Cover sharp corners with a soft cloth or simi-lar to help prevent damage to the upholstery.
• Use the load anchoring eyelets and tension-ing straps or similar to secure all objects.
WARNING
In a head-on collision at a speed of 50 km/h (30 mph), an unsecured object weighing 20kg (44 pounds) can reach a projectile weightequivalent to 1000 kg (2200 pounds).
WARNING
If objects are loaded higher than the upper edge of the side windows, leave a 10 cm (4in.) space between the objects and the win-dow. Objects placed closer to this couldimpede the function of the inflatable curtainconcealed inside the headlining.
WARNING
Always secure the load. Otherwise, it may shift during heavy braking and injure people in thevehicle. Cover sharp edges and sharp corners with something soft. Turn off the engine and apply the parking brake when loading/unloading long objects.Otherwise, it is possible for the load to reachthe gear lever or gear selector and move it toa drive position – which could cause the vehi-cle to begin rolling.
