2007 Volvo V70

Always follow the trailer manufacturer's recommendations for wheel chocking.

When starting on a hill, put the gear selector in (D)rive before releasing the parking brake.

If you use the manual (Geartronic) shift positions while towing a trailer, make sure the gear you select

does not put too much strain on the engine (using too high a gear).

The drawbar assembly/trailer hitch may be rated for trailers heavier than the vehicle is designed to

tow. Please adhere to Volvo's recommended trailer weights.

Leveling
If your vehicle is equipped with automatic leveling, the rear suspension always retains the correct ride
height regardless of the load. When the vehicle is stationary, the rear suspension lowers, which is
normal.
