Volvo XC90: Wheels and tires / Stowing a flat tire
- Screw the spare tire's retaining bolt back on.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to unscrew the lower part of the retaining bolt if it
is attached to the body, as this could cause it to break.
If the retaining bolt becomes dislodged from its lower attachment point
in the body under the spare tire, replace it in the hole and turn clockwise
to secure it again.
WARNING
On vehicles with 48 V batteries, the bolt is attached to the battery
box instead of the body. If the lower part of the retaining bolt is not dislodged
when the spare tire is taken out, it should be removed to help prevent injury
when the flat tire is replaced.
- Put the tools back in their correct positions in the foam block.
- Then lower the trunk/cargo compartment floor and place the punctured tire
in the trunk/cargo compartment.
