Tools and equipment

Your vehicle is equipped with some tools that may be useful in certain situations. For example, if you need to change a tire.

The tools and equipment in your vehicle are stored in different places, such as in the glove compartment and in the trunk. Be sure to familiarize yourself with where everything is stored so you don't have to search for something when you need it.

 Warning

Store tools appropriately

Always store loose tools and equipment in their designated storage areas when not in use. Otherwise, they can cause damage or injury in the event of a collision.

Read all instructions before using tools

Before use, make sure you read and understand any available instructions for tools and equipment.

Contact Volvo support for recommendations concerning tools and equipment for your vehicle.
