Vehicle towing information

0500033A

Towing cars with front 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 car. In this case, the car should be towed with the

rear wheels on the ground if at all possible.
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 car is being towed on a flat bed truck, the towing eyelets must

not be used to secure the car on the flat bed. Consult the tow truck

operator.

WARNING!

Do not use the towing eyelets to pull the car up onto a flat bed tow

truck.
