NOTE: Please consult state or provincial regulations restricting the use of studded winter tires before
installing such tires.
1. Where permitted
pg. 171 Wheels and tires
Temporary spare
The spare tire in your vehicle is called a "Temporary Spare".
Recommended tire pressure (see the placard on the B-pillar or on the fuel filler door) should be
maintained irrespective of which position on the vehicle the temporary spare tire is used on.
In the event of damage to this tire, a new one can be purchased from your Volvo retailer.
WARNING!
Current legislation prohibits the use of the "Temporary Spare" tire other than as a temporary
replacement for a punctured tire. It must be replaced as soon as possible by a standard tire. Road
holding and handling may be affected with the "Temporary Spare" in use. Do not exceed 50 mph (80
km/h). Do not drive farther than 50 miles (80 km) on a temporary spare tire.
CAUTION!
The vehicle must not be driven with wheels of different dimensions or with a spare tire other than the
one that came with the vehicle. The use of different size wheels can seriously damage your vehicle's
transmission.
