Observe the following rules: Bring the engine to normal operating temperature as soon as possible by driving with a light foot on the accelerator pedal for the first few minutes of operation. A cold engine uses more fuel and is subject to increased wear. Whenever possible, avoid using the vehicle for driving short distances. This does not allow the engine to reach normal operating temperature. Drive carefully and avoid rapid acceleration and hard braking. Use the transmission's (D)rive position as often as possible and avoid using kickdown. Do not exceed posted speed limits. Avoid carrying unnecessary items (extra load) in the vehicle. Maintain correct tire pressure. Check tire pressure regularly (when tires are cold). Remove snow tires when threat of snow or ice has ended. Note that roof racks, ski racks, etc, increase air resistance and also fuel consumption. At highway driving speeds, fuel consumption will be lower with the air conditioning on and the windows closed than with the air conditioning off and the windows open. Using the onboard trip computer's fuel consumption modes can help you learn how to drive more economically. Other factors that decrease gas mileage are: Dirty air cleaner Dirty engine oil and clogged oil filter Dragging brakes Incorrect front end alignment Some of the above mentioned items and others are checked at the standard maintenance intervals. WARNING Driving with the trunk open: Driving with the trunk open could lead to poisonous exhaust gases entering the passenger compartment. If the trunk must be kept open for any reason, proceed as follows: Close the windows Set the ventilation system control to air flow to floor, windshield and side windows and the blower control to its highest setting. Weight distribution affects handling At the specified curb weight your vehicle has a tendency to understeer, which means that the steering wheel has to be turned more than might seem appropriate for the curvature of a bend. This ensures good stability and reduces the risk of rear wheel skid. Remember that these properties can alter with the vehicle load. The heavier the load in the cargo area, the less the tendency to understeer. Handling, roadholding Vehicle load, tire design and inflation pressure all affect vehicle handling. Therefore, check that the tires are inflated to the recommended pressure according to the vehicle load. See the "Tire pressure" section. Loads should be distributed so that capacity weight 171 05 During your trip Driving recommendations or maximum permissible axle loads are not exceeded. Driving through water The vehicle can be driven through water up to a depth of approximately 9 in. (25 cm), at a maximum speed of 6 mph (10 km/h). Take particular care when driving through flowing water. Clean the electrical connections for trailer wiring after driving in mud or water When driving through water, maintain low speed and do not stop in the water. WARNING After driving through water, press lightly on the brake pedal to ensure that the brakes are functioning normally. Water or mud can make the brake linings slippery, resulting in delayed braking effect. CAUTION Engine damage will occur if water is drawn into the air cleaner. If the vehicle is driven through water deeper than 9 in (25 cm), water may enter the differential and the transmission. This reduces the oil's lubricating capacity and may shorten the service life of these components. Do not allow the vehicle to stand in water up to the door sills longer than absolutely necessary. This could result If the engine has been stopped while the vehicle is in water, do not attempt to restart the engine. Have the vehicle in electrical malfunctions. towed out of the water. Engine and cooling system Under special conditions, for example when driving in hilly terrain, extreme heat or with heavy loads, there is a risk that the engine and cooling system will overheat. Proceed as follows to avoid overheating the engine. Maintain a low speed when driving with a trailer up long, steep hills. Do not turn the engine off immediately you stop after a hard drive. Remove any auxiliary lights from in front of the grille when driving in hot weather conditions. Do not exceed engine speeds of 4500 rpm if driving with a trailer in hilly terrain. The oil temperature could become too high. Conserving electrical current Keep the following in mind to help minimize battery drain: When the engine is not running, avoid using ignition mode II. Many electrical systems (the audio system, the optional navigation system, power windows, etc) will function in ignition modes 0 and I. These modes reduce drain on the battery. Please keep in mind that using systems, accessories, etc., that consume a great deal of current when the engine is not running could result in the battery being completely drained. The optional 12 volt socket in the trunk provides electrical current even with the ignition switched off, which drains the battery. Before a long distance trip It is always worthwhile to have your vehicle checked by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician before driving long distances. Your retailer will also be able to supply you with bulbs, fuses, spark plugs and wiper blades for your use in the event that problems occur. 172 05 During your trip Driving recommendations As a minimum, the following items should be checked before any long trip: Check that engine runs smoothly and that fuel consumption is normal. Check for fuel, oil, and fluid leakage Have the transmission oil level checked. Check condition of drive belts. Check state of the battery's charge. Examine tires carefully (the spare tire as well), and replace those that are worn. Check tire pressures. The brakes, front wheel alignment, and steering gear should be checked by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician only. Check all lights, including high beams. Reflective warning triangles are legally required in some states/provinces. Have a word with a trained and qualified Volvo service technician if you intend to drive in countries where it may Consider your destination. If you will be driving through an area where snow or ice are likely to occur, consider be difficult to obtain the correct fuel. snow tires. Cold weather precautions If you wish to check your vehicle before the approach of cold weather, the following advice is worth noting: Make sure that the engine coolant contains 50 percent antifreeze. Any other mixture will reduce freeze protection. This gives protection against freezing down to - 31°F (-35°C). The use of "recycled" antifreeze is not approved by Volvo. Different types of antifreeze must not be mixed. Volvo recommends using only genuine Volvo antifreeze in your vehicle's radiator. Try to keep the fuel tank well filled - this helps prevent the formation of condensation in the tank. In addition, in extremely cold weather conditions it is worthwhile to add fuel line de-icer before refueling. The viscosity of the engine oil is important. Oil with low viscosity (thinner oil) improves cold-weather starting as well as decreasing fuel consumption while the engine is warming up. For winter use, 5W-30 oil, particularly the synthetic type, is recommended. Be sure to use good quality oil but do not use cold-weather oil for hard driving or in warm weather. See page 246 for more information on engine oil. NOTE Synthetic oil is not used when the oil is changed at the normal maintenance intervals except at owner request and at additional charge. The load placed on the battery is greater during the winter since the windshield wipers, lighting, etc. are used more often. Moreover, the capacity of the battery decreases as the temperature drops. In very cold weather, a poorly charged battery can freeze and be damaged. It is therefore advisable to check the state of charge more frequently and spray an anti-rust oil on the battery posts. Volvo recommends the use of snow tires on all four wheels for winter driving. See the information on page 231. To prevent the washer fluid reservoir from freezing, add washer solvents containing antifreeze. This is important since dirt is often splashed on the windshield during winter driving, requiring the frequent use of the washers and wipers. Volvo Washer Solvent should be diluted as follows: Down to 14° F (-10° C): 1 part washer solvent and 4 parts water Down to 5° F (- 15° C): 1 part washer solvent and 3 parts 173 05 During your trip Driving recommendations water Down to 0° F (-18° C): 1 part washer solvent and 2 parts water Down to -18° F (-28° C): 1 part washer solvent and 1 part water. Use Volvo Teflon Lock Spray in the locks. Avoid using de-icing sprays as they can cause damage to the locks. 174 05 During your trip Refueling Fuel requirements Deposit control gasoline (detergent additives) Volvo recommends the use of detergent gasoline to control engine deposits. Detergent gasoline is effective in keeping injectors and intake valves clean. Consistent use of deposit control gasolines will help ensure good drivability and fuel economy. If you are not sure whether the gasoline contains deposit control additives, check with the service station operator. NOTE Volvo does not recommend the use of external fuel injector cleaning systems. Unleaded fuel Each Volvo has a three-way catalytic converter and must use only unleaded gasoline. U.S. and Canadian regulations require that pumps delivering unleaded gasoline be labelled "UNLEADED". Only these pumps have nozzles which fit your vehicle's filler inlet. It is unlawful to dispense leaded fuel into a vehicle labelled "unleaded gasoline only". Leaded gasoline damages the three-way catalytic converter and the heated oxygen sensor system. Repeated use of leaded gasoline will lessen the effectiveness of the emission control system and could result in loss of emission warranty coverage. State and local vehicle inspection programs will make detection of misfueling easier, possibly resulting in emission test failure for misfueled vehicles. NOTE Some U.S. and Canadian gasolines contain an octane enhancing additive called methyl- cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl (MMT). If such fuels are used, your Emission Control System performance may be affected, and the Check Engine Light (malfunction indicator light) located on your instrument panel may light. If this occurs, please return your vehicle to an authorized Volvo retailer for service. Gasoline containing alcohol and ethers, "Oxygenated fuels" Some fuel suppliers sell gasoline containing "oxygenates" which are usually alcohols or ethers. In some areas, state or local laws require that the service pump be marked indicating use of alcohols or ethers. However, there are areas in which the pumps are unmarked. If you are not sure whether there is alcohol or ethers in the gasoline you buy, check with the service station operator. To meet seasonal air quality standards, some areas require the use of "oxygenated" fuel. Volvo allows the use of the following "oxygenated" fuels; however, the octane ratings listed on this page must still be met. Alcohol - Ethanol Fuels containing up to 10% ethanol by volume may be used. Ethanol may also be referred to as Ethyl alcohol, or "Gasohol". Ethers - MTBE: Fuels containing up to 15% MTBE may be used. Methanol Do not use gasolines containing methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol). This practice can result in vehicle performance deterioration and can damage critical parts in the fuel system. Such damage may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. 175 05 During your trip Refueling RECOMMENDED Octane rating Volvo engines are designed to achieve rated horsepower, torque, and fuel economy performance using premium 91 octane fuel. Volvo recommends premium for best performance, but using 87 octane or above will not affect engine reliability. In demanding driving conditions, such as operating the vehicle in hot weather, towing a trailer, or driving for extended periods at higher altitudes than normal, it may be advisable to switch to higher octane fuel (91 or higher) or to change gasoline brands to fully utilize your engine's capacity, and for the smoothest possible operation. MINIMUM NOTE When switching to higher octane fuel or changing gasoline brands, it may be necessary to fill the tank more than once before a difference in engine operation is noticeable Fuel Formulations Do not use gasoline that contains lead as a knock inhibitor, and do not use lead additives. Besides damaging the exhaust emission control systems on your vehicle, lead has been strongly linked to certain forms of cancer. Many fuels contain benzene as a solvent. Unburned benzene has been strongly linked to certain forms of cancer. If you live in an area where you must fill your own gas tank, take precautions. These may include: standing upwind away from the filler nozzle while refueling refueling only at gas stations with vapor recovery systems that fully seal the mouth of the filler neck during wearing neoprene gloves while handling a fuel filler nozzle. refueling Use of Additives With the exception of gas line antifreeze during winter months, do not add solvents, thickeners, or other store-bought additives to your vehicle's fuel, cooling, or lubricating systems. Overuse may damage your engine, and some of these additives contain organically volatile chemicals. Do not needlessly expose yourself to these chemicals. WARNING Never carry a cell phone that is switched on while refueling your vehicle. If the phone rings, this may cause a spark that could ignite gasoline fumes, resulting in fire and injury. 176 05 During your trip Refueling WARNING Carbon monoxide is a poisonous, colorless, and odorless gas. It is present in all exhaust gases. If you ever smell exhaust fumes inside the vehicle, make sure the passenger compartment is ventilated, and immediately return the vehicle to your retailer for correction. Opening/closing the fuel filler door The fuel filler door is located on the right rear fender (indicated by an arrow beside the fuel tank symbol on the information display With the ignition switched off, press the button on the lighting panel to unlock the fuel filler door. Please note that the fuel filler door will remain unlocked until the vehicle begins to move forward. An audible click will be heard when the fuel filler door relocks. If you intend to leave your vehicle while it is being refueled, this feature enables you to lock the doors/trunk while You can also keep the vehicle locked if you remain inside it during refueling. The central locking button does not leaving the fuel filler door unlocked. lock the fuel filler door. Be sure the fuel filler door is not obstructed and is completely closed after refueling. Open the fuel filler cap slowly during hot weather. Close the fuel filler door by pressing it a click indicates that it is closed. CAUTION Avoid spilling gasoline during refueling. In addition to causing damage to the environment, gasolines containing alcohol can cause damage to painted surfaces, which may not be covered under the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. 177 05 During your trip Refueling Opening/closing the fuel cap Fuel vapor expands in hot weather. Open the filler cap slowly. After refueling, close the fuel filler cap by turning it clockwise until it clicks into place. CAUTION Do not refuel with the engine running1. Turn the ignition off or to position I. If the ignition is on, an incorrect reading could occur in the fuel gauge. Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Do not press the handle on the filler nozzle more than one extra time. Too much fuel in the tank in hot weather conditions can cause the fuel to overflow. Overfilling could also cause damage to the emission control systems. 1If the fuel filler cap is not closed tightly or if the engine is running when the vehicle is refueled, the Check Engine Light (malfunction indicator lamp) may indicate a fault. However, your vehicle's performance will not be affected. Use only Volvo original or approved fuel filler caps. Emission controls Three-way catalytic converter Keep your engine properly tuned. Certain engine malfunctions, particularly involving the electrical, fuel or distributor ignition systems, may cause unusually high three-way catalytic converter temperatures. Do not continue to operate your vehicle if you detect engine misfire, noticeable loss of power or other unusual operating conditions, such as engine overheating or backfiring. A properly tuned engine will help avoid malfunctions that could damage the three- way catalytic converter. Do not park your vehicle over combustible materials, such as grass or leaves, which can come into contact with the hot exhaust system and cause such materials to ignite under certain wind and weather conditions. Excessive starter cranking (in excess of one minute), or an intermittently firing or flooded engine can cause three- way catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating. Remember that tampering or unauthorized modifications to the engine, the Engine Control Module, or the vehicle may be illegal and can cause three-way catalytic converter or exhaust system overheating. This includes: altering fuel injection settings 178 05 During your trip Refueling or components, altering emission system components or location or removing components, and/or repeated use of leaded fuel. NOTE Unleaded fuel is required for vehicles with three-way catalytic converters. Heated oxygen sensors The heated oxygen sensors monitor the oxygen content of the exhaust gases. Readings are fed into a control module that continuously monitors engine functions and controls fuel injection. The ratio of fuel to air into the engine is continuously adjusted for efficient combustion to help reduce harmful emissions. 179 05 During your trip Loading Introduction The load carrying capacity of your vehicle is determined by factors such as the number of passengers, the amount of cargo, the weight of any accessories that may be installed, etc. NOTE To increase loading space, the rear seat backrests can be folded down, see page 80. The trunk lid can be opened via the button located on the lighting panel, see page 60. Load the cargo in the trunk against the backrest. Load wide cargo in the trunk on both sides of the rear seat split. Unstable loads can be secured to the load anchoring eyelets with straps or web lashings to help keep them from shifting. WARNING The vehicle's driving characteristics may change depending on the weight and distribution of the load. A 44-pound (20 kg) object produces a force of 2,200 pounds (1,000 kg) in a head-on collision at 30 mph (50 km/h). Loading the cargo area Stop the engine and apply the parking brake when loading or unloading long objects. The gear selector can be knocked out of position by long loads, which could set the vehicle in motion. To increase loading space, the rear seat backrests can be folded down, see page 80. WARNING Stop the engine, put the gear selector in P, and apply the parking brake when loading or unloading long objects. The rear seat should not be loaded to a level higher than 2 in. (5 cm) below the upper edge of the rear side windows. Objects placed higher than this level could impede the function of the Volvo Inflatable Curtain. Load anchoring eyelets The load anchoring eyelets are used to fasten straps to help anchor items in the trunk. WARNING Cover sharp edges on long loads to help prevent injury to occupants. Secure the load to help prevent shifting during sudden stops. Always secure large and heavy objects with a seat belt or cargo retaining straps. 180 05 During your trip Loading Grocery bag holder1 The grocery bag holder holds shopping bags in place. 1. Open the hatch in the trunk. 2. Secure the shopping bags. 1Available on certain markets only. Ski hatch There is a hatch in the right section of the rear seat backrest that can be opened for transportation. Fold the right backrest forward. Release the hatch in the rear seat backrest by sliding the catch up while folding the hatch forward. Return the backrest to the upright position with the hatch open. Use the seat belt to prevent the load from moving. WARNING Always secure the load to help prevent it from moving in the event of sudden. Switch off the engine, apply the parking brake and put the gear selector in P when loading and unloading the vehicle. NOTE If the vehicle is equipped with the optional integrated booster cushion, fold it out first. 181 05 During your trip Loading The cover on the rear seat armrest/child seat has no hinge. The cover must be removed before the ski hatch is used. Removal: Open the cover 30 degrees and lift straight up. Installation: Insert the cover in the grooves behind the upholstery and close the cover. Roof loads Using load carriers Load carriers are available as Volvo accessories. Observe the following points when in use: To avoid damaging your vehicle and to achieve maximum safety when driving, we recommend using the load carriers that Volvo has developed especially for your vehicle. Volvo-approved removable roof racks are designed to carry the maximum allowable roof load for this vehicle: 220 lbs (100 kg). For non-Volvo roof racks, check the manufacturer's weight limits for the rack. Never exceed the rack manufacturer's weigh limits and never exceed the maximum rated roof load of 220 lbs (100 kg). Avoid single-point loads. Distribute loads evenly. Place heavier cargo at the bottom of the load. Secure the cargo correctly with appropriate tie-down equipment. Check periodically that the load carriers and load are properly secured. Remember that the vehicle's center of gravity and handling change when you carry a load on the roof. The vehicle's wind resistance and fuel consumption will increase with the size of the load. Drive smoothly. Avoid rapid starts, fast cornering and hard braking. 182 05 During your trip Towing a trailer Introduction Volvo recommends the use of Volvo trailer hitches that are specially designed for the vehicle. NOTE See page 244 for the maximum trailer and tongue weights recommended by Volvo. Observe the legal requirements of the state/province in which the vehicles are All Volvo models are equipped with energy- absorbing shock-mounted bumpers. Trailer hitch installation should not interfere with the proper operation of this bumper system. Trailer towing does not normally present any particular problems, but take into consideration: Increase tire pressure to recommended full. See the tire inflation tables on pages 221 and 222. When your vehicle is new, avoid towing heavy trailers during the first 620 miles (1,000 km). Maximum speed when towing a trailer: 50 mph (80 km/h). Engine and transmission are subject to increased loads. Therefore, engine coolant temperature should be closely watched when driving in hot climates or hilly terrain. Use a lower gear and turn off the air conditioner if the temperature gauge needle enters the red range. If the automatic transmission begins to overheat, a message will be displayed in the text window. Avoid overload and other abusive operation. Hauling a trailer affects handling, durability, and economy. It is necessary to balance trailer brakes with the towing vehicle brakes to provide a safe stop (check and observe state/local regulations). Do not connect the trailer's brake system directly to the vehicle's brake system. More frequent vehicle maintenance is required. Remove the ball and drawbar assembly when the hitch is not being used. Volvo recommends the use of synthetic engine oil when towing a trailer over long distances or in mountainous areas. WARNING Bumper-attached trailer hitches must not be used on Volvos, nor should safety chains be attached to the bumper. Trailer hitches attaching to the vehicle rear axle must not be used. Never connect a trailer's hydraulic brake system directly to the vehicle brake system, nor a trailer's lighting system directly to the vehicle lighting system. Consult your nearest authorized Volvo retailer for correct installation. When towing a trailer, the trailer's safety wire must be correctly fastened to the hole or hook provided in the trailer hitch on the vehicle. The safety wire should never be fastened to or wound around the drawbar ball. 183 05 During your trip Towing a trailer NOTE When parking the vehicle with a trailer on a hill, apply the parking brake before putting the gear selector in P. Always follow the trailer manufacturer's recommendations for wheel chocking. When starting on a hill, put the gear selector in D before releasing the parking brake. See also page 111 for more detailed information about starting off on a hill while towing a trailer. If you use the manual (Geartronic) shift positions while towing a trailer, make sure the gear you select does not put too much strain on the engine (using too high a gear). The drawbar assembly/trailer hitch may be rated for trailers heavier than the vehicle is designed to tow. Please adhere to Volvo's recommended trailer weights. Avoid driving with a trailer on inclines of more than 15 %. Trailer cable An adapter is required if the vehicle's trailer hitch has a 13-pin connector and the trailer has 7 pins. Use an adapter cable approved by Volvo. Make sure the cable does not drag on the ground. 184 05 During your trip Towing a trailer Detachable trailer hitch (accessory) Installing the ball holder 1. If necessary, remove the cotter pin from the locking bolt and slide the locking bolt out of the hitch assembly. 2. Slide the ball holder into the hitch assembly. 3. Align the hole in the ball holder with the one in the hitch assembly. 4. Slide the locking bolt through the hitch assembly/ball holder. 5. Insert the cotter pin in the hole at the end of the locking bolt. Removing the ball holder 1. Remove the cotter pin from the locking bolt and slide the locking bolt out of the ball holder/hitch assembly. 2. Pull the ball holder out of the hitch assembly. NOTE A cover for the hitch assembly is also included in the kit. 185 05 During your trip Emergency towing The towing eyelet is located under the floor of the trunk, with the spare tire. This eyelet must be screwed into the positions provided on the right sides of either the front or rear bumper (see illustration). Attaching the towing eyelet 1. Use a coin to pry open the lower edge of the cover. 2. Screw the towing eyelet in place, first by hand and then using the tire iron until it is securely in place. After the vehicle has been towed, the eyelet should be removed and returned to its storage location. Press the cover for the attachment point back into position. Precautions when the vehicle is in tow The steering wheel must be unlocked. The remote key must be in the ignition slot1. Attach jumper cables (see page 104) to provide current for releasing the optional electric parking brake and to move the gear selector from the P position. The gear selector must be in position N. Maximum speed: 50 mph (80 km/h). Do not exceed the maximum allowable towing speed. Maximum distance with front wheels on ground: 50 miles (80 km). While the vehicle is being towed, try to keep the tow rope taut at all times. The vehicle should only be towed in the forward direction. 1On vehicles with the optional keyless drive, the remote key must be in the passenger compartment. CAUTION Please check with state and local authorities before attempting this type of towing, as vehicles being towed are subject to regulations regarding maximum towing speed, length and type of towing device, lighting, etc. If the vehicle's battery is dead, do not attempt to start the vehicle by pushing or pulling it as this will damage the three-way catalytic converter(s). The engine must be jump started using an auxiliary battery (see page 104). If the vehicle is being towed on a flat bed truck, the towing eyelets must not be used to secure the vehicle on the flat bed. Consult the tow truck operator. Towing vehicles with front wheel drive/All Wheel Drive Volvo recommends the use of flat bed equipment. If wheel lift equipment must be used, please use extreme caution to help avoid damage to the vehicle. In this case, the vehicle should be towed with the rear wheels on the ground if at all possible. 186 05 During your trip Emergency towing If it is absolutely necessary to tow the vehicle with the front wheels on the ground, please refer to the towing information on the previous page. CAUTION Sling-type equipment applied at the front will damage radiator and air conditioning lines. It is equally important not to use sling-type equipment at the rear or apply lifting equipment inside the rear wheels; serious damage to the rear axle may result. If the vehicle is being towed on a flat bed truck, the towing eyelets must not be used to secure the vehicle on the flat 187 05 During your trip This page left intentionally blank.

This maintenance program contains inspections and services necessary for the proper function of your vehicle. The maintenance services contain several checks that require special tools and training, and therefore must be performed by a qualified technician. To keep your Volvo in top condition, specify time-tested and proven Genuine Volvo Parts and Accessories. The Federal Clean Air Act - U.S The Federal Clean Air Act requires vehicle manufacturers to furnish written instructions to the ultimate purchaser to assure the proper servicing and function of the components that control emissions. These services, which are listed in the "Warranty and Service Records Information" booklet, are not covered by the warranty. You will be required to pay for labor and material used. Maintenance Your Volvo passed several major inspections before it was delivered to you, in accordance with Volvo specifications. The maintenance procedures outlined in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet, many of which will positively affect your vehicle's emissions, should be performed as indicated. It is recommended that receipts for vehicle emission maintenance be retained in case questions arise concerning maintenance. Inspection and maintenance should also be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected. Applicable warranties - U.S/Canada In accordance with applicable U.S. and Canadian regulations, the following list of warranties is provided. New Vehicle Limited Warranty Parts and Accessories Limited Warranty Corrosion Protection Limited Warranty Seat Belt and Supplemental Restraint Systems Limited Warranty Emission Design and Defect Warranty Emission Performance Warranty These are the federal warranties; other warranties are provided as required by state/provincial law. Refer to your separate Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for detailed information concerning each of the warranties. Periodic maintenance helps minimize emissions Periodic maintenance will help keep your vehicle running well. Your Warranty and Service Records Information booklet provides a comprehensive periodic maintenance schedule up to 150,000 miles (240,000 km) of vehicle maintenance. The schedule includes components that affect vehicle emissions. This page describes some of the emission-related components. Vehicle Event Data (Black Box) Your vehicle's driving and safety systems employ computers that monitor, and share with each other, information about your vehicle's operation. One or more of these computers may store what they monitor, either during normal vehicle operation or in a crash or near-crash event. Stored information may be read and used by: Volvo Car Corporation service and repair facilities law enforcement or government agencies others who may assert a legal right to know, or who obtain your consent to know such information. 191 06 Maintenance and specifications Maintaining your car Owner maintenance Periodic maintenance requirements and intervals are described in your vehicle's Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenance services. Each time the car is refueled: Check the engine oil level. Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and tail lights. Monthly: Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect the tires for wear. Check that engine coolant and other fluid levels are between the indicated "min" and "max" markings. Clean interior glass surfaces with a glass cleaner and soft paper towels. Wipe driver information displays with a soft cloth. Visually inspect battery terminals for corrosion. Corrosion may indicate a loose terminal connector, or a battery near the end of its useful service life. Consult your Volvo retailer for additional information. As needed: Wash the car, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can be caused by a buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can be caused by salt residues. Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshield, and from other places where they may collect. NOTE Complete service information for qualified technicians is available online for purchase or subscription at www.volvotechinfo.com. 192 06 Maintenance and specifications Maintaining your car Emission inspection readiness What is an Onboard Diagnostic System (OBD II)? OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. It stores diagnostic information about your vehicle's emission controls. It can light the Check Engine light (MIL) if it detects an emission control "fault." A "fault" is a component or system that is not performing within an expected range. A fault may be permanent or temporary. OBD II will store a message about any fault. How do states use OBD II for emission inspections? Many states connect a computer directly to a vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector can then read "faults." In some states, this type of inspection has replaced the tailpipe emission test. How can my vehicle fail OBD II emission inspection? Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspection for any of the following reasons. If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, your vehicle may fail inspection. If your vehicle's Check Engine light was lit, but went out without any action on your part, OBD II will still have a recorded fault. Your vehicle may pass or fail, depending on the inspection practices in your area. If you had recent service that required disconnecting the battery, OBD II diagnostic information may be incomplete and "not ready" for inspection. A vehicle that is not ready may fail inspection. How can I prepare for my next OBD II emission inspection? If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit - or was lit but went out without service, have your vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary, serviced by a qualified Volvo technician. If you recently had service for a lit Check Engine light, or if you had service that required disconnecting the battery, a period of driving is necessary to bring the OBD II system to "ready" for inspection. A half-hour trip of mixed stop- and-go/highway driving is typically needed to allow OBD II to reach readiness. Your Volvo retailer can provide you with more information on planning a trip. Maintain your vehicle in accordance with your vehicle's maintenance schedule. 193 06 Maintenance and specifications Hood and engine compartment Opening and closing the hood Pull the lever located under the left side of the dash to release the hood lock. Lift the hood slightly. Press the release control (located under the right front edge of the hood) to the left, and lift the hood WARNING Check that the hood locks properly when closed. Engine compartment, overview The appearance of the engine compartment may vary depending on engine model.

WARNING The distributor ignition system operates at very high voltages. Special safety precautions must be followed to prevent injury. Always turn the ignition off when: Replacing distributor ignition components e.g. plugs, coil, etc. Do not touch any part of the distributor ignition system while the engine is running. This may result in unintended movements and body injury. 194 06 Maintenance and specifications Engine oil Checking the engine oil The oil level should be checked every time the vehicle is refueled. This is especially important during the period up to the first scheduled maintenance service. See page 246 for oil specifications. Refer to the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet for information on the oil change intervals. Volvo recommends oil products. CAUTION Not checking the oil level regularly can result in serious engine damage if the oil level becomes too low. Oil that is lower than the specified quality can damage the engine. Volvo does not recommend the use of oil additives. Always add oil of the same type and viscosity as already used. Never fill oil above the MAX mark. This could cause an increase in oil consumption. Checking and adding oil NOTE Before checking the oil: oil. The car should be parked on a level surface when the oil is checked. If the engine is warm, wait for at least 10-15 minutes after the engine has been switched off before checking the Checking the oil 1. Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a lint-free rag. 2. Reinsert the dipstick, pull it out, and check the oil level. The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. 3. Add oil if necessary. If the level is close to the MIN mark, add approximately 0.5 US quarts (0.5 liters) of oil. 4. Recheck the level and add more oil if necessary until the level is near the MAX mark. 195 06 Maintenance and specifications Engine oil WARNING Do not allow oil to spill onto or come into contact with hot exhaust pipe surfaces. NOTE Synthetic oil is not used when the oil is changed at the normal maintenance intervals except at owner request and at additional charge. Please consult your Volvo retailer. 196 06 Maintenance and specifications Fluids Coolant Normally, the coolant does not need to be changed. If the system must be drained, consult your Volvo retailer. See page 248 for information on cooling system capacities. CAUTION Do not top off with water only. This reduces the rust-protective and antifreeze qualities of the coolant and has a lower boiling point. It can also cause damage to the cooling system if it should freeze. Top off with Volvo Genuine Coolant/Antifreeze only (a 50/50 mix of water and antifreeze). The cooling system must always be kept filled to the correct level, and the level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. If it is not kept filled, there can be high local temperatures in the engine which could result in damage. Different types of antifreeze/coolant may not be mixed. Check coolant regularly. WARNING Never remove the radiator cap while the engine is warm. Wait until the vehicle cools. If it is necessary to top off the coolant when the engine is warm, unscrew the expansion tank cap slowly so that the over-pressure dissipates. 197 06 Maintenance and specifications Fluids Brake fluid Checking the level The fluid reservoir is concealed under the round cover at the rear of the engine compartment. The round cover must be removed first before the reservoir cap can be accessed. The brake fluid should always be between the MIN and MAX marks on the side of the reservoir. Check, without removing the cap, that there is sufficient fluid in the reservoir. Fluid type: DOT 4+ boiling point >536°F (280°C), P/N 9437433 Replace: The fluid should be replaced according to the intervals specified in the Warranty and Service Records Information booklet. When driving under extremely hard conditions (mountain driving, etc), it may be necessary to replace the fluid more often. Consult your Volvo retailer. Always entrust brake fluid changing to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician. WARNING If the fluid level is below the MIN mark in the reservoir or if a brake-related message is shown in the information display: DO NOT DRIVE. Have the car towed to a trained and qualified Volvo service technician and have the brake system inspected. Filling Turn and open the cover. Unscrew the reservoir cap and fill the fluid. The level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. Power steering fluid Check the level frequently. The fluid does not require changing. The fluid level must be between the MIN and MAX marks. For capacities and recommended fluid grade, see page 248. WARNING If a problem should occur in the power steering system or if the vehicle has no electrical current and must be towed, it is still possible to steer the vehicle. However, keep in mind that greater effort will be required to turn the steering wheel. CAUTION Keep the area around the power steering fluid reservoir clean when checking. 198 06 Maintenance and specifications Replacing bulbs Introduction All bulb specifications are listed on page 204.

Positions 214 06 Maintenance and specifications Fuses 215 06 Maintenance and specifications Fuses Trunk Positions 216 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Introduction Your vehicle is equipped with tires according to the vehicle's tire information placard on the B-pillar (the structural member at the side of the vehicle, at the rear of the driver's door opening). The tires have good road holding characteristics and offer good handling on dry and wet surfaces. It should be noted however that the tires have been developed to give these features on snow/ice-free surfaces. Certain models are equipped with "all-season" tires, which provide a somewhat higher degree of road holding on slippery surfaces than tires without the "all-season" rating. However, for optimum road holding on icy or snow- covered roads, we recommend suitable winter tires on all four wheels. When replacing tires, be sure that the new tires are the same size designation, type (radial) and preferably from the same manufacturer, on all four wheels. Otherwise there is a risk of altering the car's roadholding and handling characteristics. Storing wheels and tires When storing complete wheels (tires mounted on rims), they should be suspended off the floor or placed on their sides on the floor. Tires not mounted on rims should be stored on their sides or standing upright, but should not be suspended. CAUTION Tires should preferably be stored in a cool, dry, dark place, and should never be stored in close proximity to solvents, gasoline, oils, etc. Tread wear indicator The tires have wear indicator strips running across or parallel to the tread. The letters TWI are printed on the side of the tire. When approximately 1/16" (1.6 mm) is left on the tread, these strips become visible and indicate that the tire should be replaced. Tires with less than 1/16" (1.6 mm) tread offer very poor traction. When replacing worn tires, it is recommended that the tire be identical in type (radial) and size as the one being replaced. Using a tire of the same make (manufacturer) will prevent alteration of the driving characteristics of the vehicle. WARNING The wheel and tire sizes for your Volvo are specified to meet stringent stability and handling requirements. Unapproved wheel/ tire size combinations can negatively affect your vehicle's stability and handling. Approved tire sizes are shown in the Tire inflation pressure tables beginning on page 221. Any damage caused by installation of unapproved wheel/tire size combinations will not be covered by your new vehicle warranty. Volvo assumes no responsibility for death, injury, or expenses that may result from such installations. 217 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Remember that tires are perishable goods. As of 2000, the manufacturing week and year (Department of Transportation (DOT) stamp) will be indicated with 4 digits (e.g. 1502 means that the tire illustrated was manufactured during week 15 of 2002). Tire age Tires degrade over time, even when they are not being used. It is recommended that tires generally be replaced after 6 years of normal service. Heat caused by hot climates, frequent high loading conditions or Ultra Violet (U.V.) exposure can accelerate the aging process. You should replace the spare tire when you replace the other road tires due to the aging of the spare. A tire's age can be determined by the DOT stamp on the sidewall (see the illustration above). A tire with e.g., visible cracks or discoloration should be replaced immediately. Improving tire economy Maintain correct tire pressure. See the tire pressure tables beginning on page 221. Drive smoothly: avoid fast starts, hard braking and tire screeching. Tire wear increases with speed. Correct front wheel alignment is very important. Unbalanced wheels impair tire economy and driving comfort. Tires must maintain the same direction of rotation throughout their lifetime. When replacing tires, the tires with the most tread should be mounted on the rear wheels to reduce the chance of oversteer during hard braking. Hitting curbs or potholes can damage the tires and/or wheels permanently. 218 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Tire inflation Tire inflation Check tire inflation pressure regularly. Tables listing the recommended inflation pressure for your vehicle can be found on pages 221 and 222. A tire inflation pressure placard is also located on the driver's side Bpillar (the structural member at the side of the vehicle, at the rear of the driver's door opening). This placard indicates the designation of the factory-mounted tires on your vehicle, as well as load limits and inflation pressure. NOTE The placards shown indicate inflation pressure for the tires installed on the vehicle at the factory only. A certain amount of air seepage from the tires occurs naturally and tire pressure fluctuates with seasonal changes in temperature. Always check tire pressure regularly. Use a tire gauge to check the tire inflation pressure, including the spare, at least once a month and before long trips. You are strongly urged to buy a reliable tire pressure gauge, as automatic service station gauges may be inaccurate. Use the recommended cold inflation pressure for optimum tire performance and wear. Under-inflation or over-inflation may cause uneven treadwear patterns. WARNING Under-inflation is the most common cause of tire failure and may result in severe tire cracking, tread separation, or "blowout," with unexpected loss of vehicle control and increased risk of injury. Under-inflated tires reduce the load carrying capacity of your vehicle. When weather temperature changes occur, tire inflation pressures also change. A 10- degree temperature drop causes a corresponding drop of 1 psi (7 kPa) in inflation pressure. Check your tire pressures frequently and adjust them to the proper pressure, which can be found on the vehicle's tire information placard or certification label. Checking tire pressure Cold tires Inflation pressure should be checked when the tires are cold. The tires are considered to be cold when they have the same temperature as the surrounding (ambient) air. 219 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires This temperature is normally reached after the vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours. After driving a distance of approximately 1 mile (1.6 km), the tires are considered to be hot. If you have to drive farther than this distance to pump your tire(s), check and record the tire pressure first and add the appropriate air pressure when you get to the pump. If checking tire pressure when the tire is hot, never "bleed" or reduce air pressure. The tires are hot from driving and it is normal for pressures to increase above recommended cold pressures. A hot tire at or below recommended cold inflation pressure could be significantly under-inflated. To check inflation pressure: 1. Remove the cap from the valve on one tire, then firmly press the tire gauge onto the valve. 2. Add air to reach the recommended air pressure. 3. Replace the valve cap. 4. Repeat this procedure for each tire, including the spare. 5. Visually inspect the tires to make sure there are no nails or other objects embedded that could puncture the tire and cause an air leak. 6. Check the sidewalls to make sure there are no gouges, cuts, bulges or other irregularities. NOTE If you overfill the tire, release air by pushing on the metal stem in the center of the valve. Then recheck the pressure with your tire gauge. page 221 or see the inflation pressure placard. Some spare tires require higher inflation pressure than the other tires. Consult the tire inflation tables beginning on 220 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Tire specifications Speed ratings The speed ratings in the table below translate as follow: Load ratings The speed ratings in the table below translate as follow: See also page 226 for an explanation of the designations on the sidewall of the tire. 221 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Tire inflation pressure table - U.S. models The following tire pressures are recommended by Volvo for your vehicle. Refer to the tire inflation placard for information specific to the tires installed on your vehicle at the factory. NOTE A certain amount of air seepage from the tires occurs naturally and tire pressure fluctuates with seasonal changes in temperature. Always check tire pressure regularly. 222 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Tire inflation pressure table - Canadian models The following tire pressures are recommended by Volvo for your vehicle. Refer to the tire inflation placard for information specific to the tires installed on your vehicle at the factory. NOTE A certain amount of air seepage from the tires occurs naturally and tire pressure fluctuates with seasonal changes in temperature. Always check tire pressure regularly. 223 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)-U.S models only The tire pressure monitoring system uses sensors mounted in the tire valves to check inflation pressure levels. When the vehicle is moving at a speed of approximately 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster, these sensors transmit inflation pressure data to a receiver located in the vehicle. NOTE USA - FCC ID: KR5S122780002 This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. When low inflation pressure is detected, TPMS will light up the tire pressure warning light ( telltale) in the instrument panel, and will display a message in the text window. The wording of this message is determined by the degree of inflation pressure loss. ) (also referred to as a NOTE If a fault occurs in TPMS, the tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 1 minute and TIRE PRESS SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed. Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability. Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly. 224 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires NOTE TPMS indicates low tire pressure but does not replace normal tire maintenance. For information on correct tire pressure, please refer to the tables beginning on page 221, or consult your Volvo retailer. The tire pressure warning light will not identify which tire is under-inflated. Be sure to check all four tires. A certain amount of air seepage from the tires occurs naturally and tire pressure fluctuates with seasonal changes in temperature. Always check tire pressure regularly. Erasing warning messages When a low tire pressure warning message has been displayed, and the tire pressure warning light has come on: 1. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the inflation pressure of all four tires. 2. Re-inflate the tire(s) to the correct pressure (consult the tire pressure placard or the tables beginning on page 221). 3. In certain cases, it may be necessary to drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster. This will erase the warning text and the warning light will go out. WARNING Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, resulting in a loss of control of the vehicle. Changing wheels with TPMS Please note the following when changing or replacing the factory installed TPMS wheels/tires on the vehicle: Only the factory-mounted wheels are equipped with TPMS sensors in the valves. If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire, this tire does not have a TPMS sensor. If wheels without TPMS sensors are mounted on the vehicle, TIRE PRESS SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed each time the vehicle is driven above 25 mph (40 km/h) for 10 minutes or more. Once TPMS sensors are properly installed, the warning message should not reappear. If the message is still displayed, drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster to erase the message. Volvo recommends that TPMS sensors be fitted on all wheels used on the vehicle. Volvo does not recommend moving sensors back and forth between sets of wheels. NOTE If you change to tires with a different recommended inflation pressure, the TPMS system must be recalibrated to these tires. This must be done by an authorized Volvo retailer or workshop. If a tire is changed, or if the TPMS sensor is moved to another wheel, the sensor's seal, nut, and valve core should be replaced. When installing TPMS sensors, the vehicle must be parked for at least 15 minutes with the ignition off. if the vehicle is driven within 15 minutes, a TPMS error message will be displayed. CAUTION When inflating tires with TPMS valves, press the pump's mouthpiece straight onto the valve to help avoid bending or otherwise damaging the valve. 225 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Self supporting run flat tires Certain models equipped with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) can also be equipped with self supporting run flat tires. Tires of this type have specially reinforced sidewalls that make it possible to continue driving in the event of a drop in inflation pressure. Tires of this type are mounted on special rims. NOTE Self supporting run flat tires are only available in conjunction with TPMS. If a self supporting run flat tire should lose inflation pressure, the yellow TPMS warning symbol ( instrument panel lights up to alert the driver, and a message will be shown in the text window in the instrument panel. ) in the If this occurs, reduce vehicle speed to a maximum of 50 mph (80 km/h). The vehicle can be driven approximately 50 miles (80 km), or somewhat farther if the vehicle is not heavily loaded. The tire should be replaced as soon as possible. Hard braking and sudden steering maneuvers should be avoided. In certain cases, it may be difficult to see which self supporting run flat tire is defective. To determine which tire is damaged, check the inflation pressure of all four tires. WARNING Only specially trained persons should mount self supporting run flat tires. If self supporting run flat tires are mounted, the vehicle must be equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring After a low pressure warning has been displayed, do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h). Avoid severe cornering and hard braking, and minimize the distance traveled before replacing the self supporting System. run flat tire. Self supporting run flat tires cannot be repaired. They must be replaced if damaged or punctured. 226 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Tire designations Federal law mandates that tire manufacturers place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires (see the illustration). The following information is listed on the tire sidewall: The tire designation (the following figures are examples of a tire designation): 1. 215: the width of the tire (in millimeters) from sidewall edge to sidewall edge. The larger the number, the wider the tire. 2. 65: The ratio of the tire's height to its width. 3. R: Radial tire. 4. 15: The diameter of the wheel rim (in inches). 5. 95: The tire's load index. In this example, a load index of 95 equals a maximum load of 1521 lbs (690 kg). 6. H: The tire's speed rating, or the maximum speed at which the tire is designed to be driven for extended periods of time, carrying a permissible load for the vehicle, and with correct inflation pressure. For example, H indicates a speed rating of 130 mph (210 km/h). NOTE This information may not appear on the tire because it is not required by law. 7. M+S or M/S = Mud and Snow, AT = All Terrain, AS = All Season 8. U.S. DOT Tire Identification Number (TIN): This begins with the letters "DOT" and indicates that the tire meets all federal standards. The next two numbers or letters are the plant code where it was manufactured, the next two are the tire size code and the last four numbers represent the week and year the tire was built. For example, the numbers 317 mean the 31st week of 1997. After 2000 the numbers go to four digits. For example, 2501 means the 25th week of 2001. The numbers in between are marketing codes used at the manufacturer's discretion. This information helps a tire manufacturer identify a tire for safety recall purposes. 9. Tire Ply Composition and Material Used: Indicates the number of plies indicates or the number of layers of rubber-coated fabric in the tire tread and sidewall. Tire manufacturers also must indicate the ply materials in the tire and the sidewall, which include steel, nylon, polyester, and others. 10. Maximum Load: Indicates the maximum load in pounds and kilograms that can be carried by the tire. Refer to the vehicle's tire information placard or the safety certification label, located on the B-Pillar or the driver's door or on the inside of the fuel filler door on Canadian models, for the correct tire pressure for your vehicle. 11. Treadwear, Traction, and Temperature grades: See page 230 for more information. 12. Maximum permissible inflation pressure: the greatest amount of air pressure that should ever be put in the tire. This limit is set by the tire manufacturer. 227 06 Maintenance and specifications Glossary of tire terminology The tire suppliers may have additional markings, notes or warnings such as standard load, radial tubeless, etc. Tire information placard: A placard showing the OE (Original Equipment) tire sizes, recommended inflation pressure, and the maximum weight the vehicle can carry. Tire Identification Number (TIN): A number on the sidewall of each tire providing information about the tire brand and manufacturing plant, tire size and date of manufacturer. Inflation pressure: A measure of the amount of air in a tire. Standard load: A class of P-metric or Metric tires designed to carry a maximum load at 35 psi [37 psi (2.5 bar) for Metric tires]. Increasing the inflation pressure beyond this pressure will not increase the tires load carrying capability. Extra load: A class of P-metric or Metric tires designed to carry a heavier maximum load at 41 psi [43 psi (2.9 bar) for Metric tires]. Increasing the inflation pressure beyond this pressure will not increase the tire's load carrying capability. kPa: Kilopascal, a metric unit of air pressure. PSI: Pounds per square inch, a standard unit of air pressure. B-pillar: The structural member at the side of the vehicle behind the front door. Bead area of the tire: Area of the tire next to the rim. Sidewall of the tire: Area between the bead area and the tread. Tread area of the tire: Area of the perimeter of the tire that contacts the road when mounted on the vehicle. Rim: The metal support (wheel) for a tire or a tire and tube assembly upon which the tire beads are seated. Maximum load rating: a figure indicating the maximum load in pounds and kilograms that can be carried by the tire. This rating is established by the tire manufacturer. Maximum permissible inflation pressure: the greatest amount of air pressure that should ever be put in the tire. This limit is set by the tire manufacturer. Recommended tire inflation pressure: inflation pressure, established by Volvo, which is based on the type of tires that are mounted on a vehicle at the factory. This inflation pressure is affected by the number of occupants in the vehicle, the amount of cargo, and the speed at which the vehicle will be driven for a prolonged period. This information can be found on the tire inflation placard(s) located on the driver's side B-pillar or on the inside of the fuel filler door on Canadian models, and in the tire inflation table in this chapter. Cold tires: The tires are considered to be cold when they have the same temperature as the surrounding (ambient) air. This temperature is normally reached after the vehicle has been parked for at least 3 hours. 228 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires Vehicle loading Properly loading your vehicle will provide maximum return of vehicle design performance. Before loading your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the following terms for determining your vehicle's weight ratings, with or without a trailer, from the vehicle's Federal/Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS/ CMVSS) label, and the vehicle's tire information placard: Curb weight The weight of the vehicle including a full tank of fuel and all standard equipment. It does not include passengers, cargo, or optional equipment. Capacity weight All weight added to the curb weight, including cargo and optional equipment. When towing, trailer hitch tongue load is also part of cargo weight. NOTE For trailer towing information, please refer to the section "Towing a trailer" on page 182. Permissible axle weight The maximum allowable weight that can be carried by a single axle (front or rear). These numbers are shown on the Federal/Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS/ CMVSS) label. The total load on each axle must never exceed its maximum permissible weight. Gross vehicle weight (GVW) The vehicle's curb weight + cargo + passengers. NOTE The location of the various labels in your vehicle can be found on page 241. A table listing important weight limits for your vehicle can be found on page 244. Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit 1. Locate the statement ''the combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX pounds'' on your vehicle's placard. 2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in your vehicle. 3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kilograms or XXX pounds. 4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity. For example, if the ''XXX'' amount equals 1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb. passengers in your vehicle, the amount of available cargo and luggage load capacity is 650 lbs. (1400- 750 (5 x 150) = 650 lbs.) 5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. That weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage load capacity calculated in Step 4. 6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual1 to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle. 1See "Towing a trailer" on page 182. 229 06 Maintenance and specifications Wheels and tires WARNING Exceeding the permissible axle weight, gross vehicle weight, or any other weight rating limits can cause tire overheating resulting in permanent deformation or catastrophic failure. Do not use replacement tires with lower load carrying capacities than the tires that were original equipment on the vehicle because this will lower the vehicle's GVW rating. Replacement tires with a higher limit than the originals do not increase the vehicle's GVW rating limitations.
