2001 Volvo S80

Hoisting the car

If a garage jack is used to lift the car, the two jack attachments points should be used. They are specially
reinforced to bear the weight of the car. A garage jack can also be placed under the front of the engine
support frame. Take care not to damage the splash guard under the engine. Ensure that the jack is
positioned so that the car cannot slide off it. Always use axle stands or similar structures.

If a twopost hoist is used to lift the car, the front and rear lift arm pads should be centered under the
reinforced lift plates on the inboard edge of the sill rail (see illustration above).
