Accessing the spare wheel
This illustration is generic and appearance may vary.
The spare tire is located in the spare wheel well under the cargo compartment with theoutside of the wheel facing downward. Thespare tire is secured with a bolt that goesthrough the tire and attaches it to the body.The foam block contains all tools needed tochange a wheel.

Snow tires
Snow tires are designed for winter driving conditions.
Volvo recommends snow tires with specific dimensions. The tire dimensions vary depend-ing on engine type. When driving with snowtires, the correct type of tires must be moun-ted on all four wheels.
Tips for changing snow tiresWhen switching between regular tires andsnow tires, mark the tires according to whichside they were mounted on, e.g. L for left and
R for right.
Contact a Volvo retailer for assistance deter-mining the most suitable rims and tires.
Studded tiresStudded tires should be broken in by driving500–1000 km (300–600 miles) slowly andgently to help the studs settle properly in thetires. This gives the tire, and especially thestuds, a longer service life.
NOTE
Legal requirements concerning the use of studded tires may vary. Always follow locallaws and regulations.
Tread depthRoad conditions with ice, slush and low tem- peratures place considerably higher demands on tires than summer conditions. Volvo there-fore recommends not driving on snow tiresthat have a tread depth of less than 4 mm(0.15 inch).

Tire sealing system17
The temporary tire sealing system can be used to seal a puncture in a tire or to checkand adjust the pressure in the tire. Models equipped with a spare wheel 18
do not
have the tire sealing system.
WARNING

For more information go towww.P65Warnings.ca.gov/passenger-vehicle.
The tire sealing system consists of a compres- sor and a bottle containing sealing compound.The sealing functions as a temporary repair.
NOTE
The sealing compound effectively seals tires with punctures in the tread but maynot be able to fully seal tires with punctu-res in the sidewall. Do not use the tire seal-ing system on tires with large tears, cracksor similar damage.
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 cargo compartment floor.
Sealing compound expiration dateThe sealing compound bottle must be replaced if its expiration date has passed (seethe decal on the bottle). Handle the old bottleas hazardous waste.
