Snow chains
Snow chains can be used on your Volvo with
the following restrictions:
Snow chains should be installed on front
wheels only. Use only Volvo approved snow
chains.
If accessory, aftermarket or custom tires
and wheels are installed and are of a size
different than the original tires and wheels,
chains in some cases CANNOT be used.
Sufficient clearances between chains and
brakes, suspension and body components
must be maintained.
Some strap-on type chains will interfere
with brake components and therefore
CANNOT be used.
All Wheel Drive models: Snow chains
should only be installed on the front wheels.
Only chains adapted for AWD models
should be used.
Consult your Volvo retailer for additional
snow chain information.
CAUTION!
Check local regulations regarding the use
of snow chains before installing.
Always follow the chain manufacturers
installation instructions carefully. Install
chains as tightly as possible and retighten
periodically.
Never exceed the chain manufacturers
specified maximum speed limit. (Under no
circumstances should you exceed 31 mph
(50 km/h)).
Avoid bumps, holes or sharp turns when
driving with snow chains.
The handling of the vehicle can be
adversely affected when driving with
chains. Avoid fast or sharp turns as well as
locked wheel braking.

Tires for winter use:
Owners who live in or regularly commute
through areas with sustained periods of
snow or icy driving conditions are strongly
advised to fit suitable winter tires to help
retain the highest degree of traction.
It is important to install winter tires on all
four wheels to help retain traction during
cornering, braking, and accelerating. Failure
to do so could reduce traction to an unsafe
level or adversely affect handling.
Do not mix tires of different design as this
could also negatively affect overall tire road
grip.
Winter tires wear more quickly on dry
roads in warm weather. They should be
removed when the winter driving season
has ended.
Studded tires should be run-in 300-600
miles (500-1000 km) during which the car
should be driven as smoothly as possible to
give the studs the opportunity to seat
properly in the tires. The tires should have
the same rotational direction throughout
their entire lifetime.
NOTE: Please consult state or provincial
regulations restricting the use of studded
winter tires before installing such tires.
