Changing wheels - removing wheels
The car's wheels can be changed for e.g. win-
ter wheels/winter tyres.
Set up the warning triangle if a wheel must be
changed in a trafficked location. The car and
jack* must be on a firm horizontal surface.
1. Apply the parking brake and engage
reverse gear, or position P if the car has
an automatic gearbox.
WARNING
Check that the jack is not damaged, that
the threads are thoroughly lubricated and
that it is free from dirt.
NOTE
Volvo recommends only using the jack*
that belongs to the car model in question,
which is indicated on the jack's label.
The decal also indicates the jack's maxi-
mum lift capacity at a specified lifting
height.
2. Take out the wheel to be fitted (summer
tyre, winter tyre or spare wheel) as well as
the tools. If it is a spare wheel being fitted
then there is a package in its location
containing gloves and a plastic bag for
the punctured wheel.
