Emergency towing
The towing eyelet is located under the floor of the cargo area. This eyelet must be screwed into the
positions provided on the right sides of either the front or rear bumper (see illustrations).
To attach the towing eyelet:
1. Use a coin or screwdriver 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 the tool bag. Press the
cover back into position.
Towing a vehicle with all four wheels on the ground
WARNING!
Volvo does not recommend towing a disabled vehicle behind another vehicle. Significant difficulty in
steering and braking, combined with unfavorable weather, traffic, and road conditions may make it
impossible to maintain vehicle control.
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Insert the key into the ignition to unlock the steering wheel. The steering wheel must be unlocked.
With the engine off and the vehicle at a standstill, great effort will be required to turn the steering wheel.
WARNING!
Towing a vehicle with a locked steering wheel will make the vehicle impossible to
steer.
3. Turn the ignition key to position II.
