Towbar*
A towbar means that it is possible to e.g. tow a
trailer behind the car.
If the car is equipped with a removable towbar,
the installation instructions for the loose section
must be followed carefully, see Detachable tow-
bar* - attachment/removal (p. 310).
WARNING
If the car is fitted with a Volvo detachable
towbar:
•
Follow the installation instructions care-
fully.
•
The detachable section must be locked
with the key before setting off.
•
Check that the indicator window shows
green.
Important checks
•
The towbar's towball must be cleaned and
greased regularly.
WARNING
The moving parts of the detachable towbar
must not be lubricated/oiled. This may reduce
safety.
NOTE
When a hitch with a vibration damper is used,
the towball must not be lubricated.
This also applies when fitting a bicycle rack
that is clamped in around the towball.
