Wheels and tyres

Changing wheels

Spare wheel – refitting

It is best to have two people put the spare

wheel back in place. One person to crank

and the other to guide the wheel.

– Crank out the cable and place its anchor

in the centre hole of the wheel.

– Slowly crank (clockwise) the cable in a

bit.

– Angle the wheel so that it comes in over

the exhaust system.

– Hold down the rear edge of the wheel

while cranking it in.

– Place the wheel above the rear axle,

against the floor.

Crank to the stop point.

Check that the wheel is firmly secured.

The jacking points are centred under the

bottom of the doors.

Removing wheels

Remember to set out the warning triangle if

you must change a wheel in a trafficked area.

There are two jacking points on each side of

the car, centred under the bottom of the

doors.

– Park the car on an even, firm surface with

no incline.

– Apply the parking brake and engage 1st

gear (manual gearbox) or move the gear

selector to P (automatic gearbox). Place

chocks on either side of the wheels

remaining on the ground - use stones or

wooden blocks.

– Take out the jack, wheelbrace and crank,

see location page 153.

– Use the wheelbrace to loose the wheel

bolts ½-1 turn. Turn anticlockwise.

WARNING!

Check that the right attachment points are

being used. A production anchorage with

pin is located between the jacking points.

This is not strong enough to use to lift the

car. If you are unsure about the location of

the jacking points, contact your Volvo

workshop. An incorrectly fitted jack could

damage the door and body.
