Spare wheel1
The spare tire is only intended for temporary use. Replace it with a normal wheel as soon as possible.
The driving characteristics of the vehicle change and ground clearance reduces when the spare wheel is used. Do not wash the vehicle in an automatic car wash while using the Temporary Spare.
The recommended tire pressure must be maintained regardless of at which position the temporary spare wheel is used on the vehicle.
If the spare wheel is damaged, a new one can be purchased from a Volvo retailer.
Warning
Warning
- The vehicle must never be driven with more than one "Temporary spare" tire mounted.
- Driving with a spare wheel may alter the driving characteristics of the vehicle. Replace the spare wheel with a normal wheel as soon as possible.
- The spare wheel is smaller than the normal wheel, which affects the vehicle's ground clearance. Watch for high curbs and do not wash the vehicle in an automatic car wash when a spare wheel is mounted.
- Follow the manufacturer's recommended tire inflation pressure for the spare wheel.
- On all-wheel drive vehicles, the drive on the rear axle can be disconnected.
- If the spare wheel is mounted on the front axle, snow chains must not be used.
- The spare wheel must not be repaired.
Important
The spare wheel is located in the spare wheel well with the outside of the wheel facing downward. The same bolt runs through both the spare wheel and foam block to hold them into place. The foam block contains all tools needed to change a wheel.
