How to adjust the handbrake of the Volvo C30

Model: Volvo C30 MK 1 - Years 2006-2013
Part: Checks and maintenance

The instructions in this guide will show us how to adjust the handbrake cable of the Volvo C30. First, we get on board the vehicle and start by opening the central glove compartment; then we remove the small cover at the bottom to access the handbrake lever adjustment screw, as shown in the video. At this point, we use a socket wrench with extension to make the adjustment, screwing or unscrewing as needed; we perform several tests until we achieve the optimal lever travel.
