on the type of cord used in the tire. Remember that, in cold weather, it takes longer for the tire to warm
up and consequently longer for the flat spot to disappear.
Snow tires, studded tires *
Tires for winter use:
Use snow tires fitted to the standard 15" wheels (preferably steel).
Suitable tire size: 185/65 TR (motor B230F, on all four wheels) or 195/60 HR (Turbo, on all four
wheels). No rims from other Volvo models can be used on the 740.
Do not mix tires of different design, as this could negatively affect overall tire road grip especially
during slippery road conditions!
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 car tires should
have the same rotational direction throughout their entire lifetime. In other words, if you wish to rotate
the wheels, make sure that the same wheels are always on the same side of the car.
Tire chains can only be used on the rear wheels if the chains do not project too far from the tire and
chafe against the brake caliper or other components.
Strap-on emergency chains must not be used since the clearance between the brake caliper and the wheel
rim is inadequate.
NOTE: Regulations governing the use of studded tires may vary from one state or province to
another.

Checking and correcting tire pressure
Check the tire pressure when refueling.
The tire pressure should be corrected only when the tires are cold. With warm tires, correct only when
the pressure is too low. The tire temperature rises after driving just a few miles.
