minutes otherwise an error message will be
shown in the combined instrument panel.
WARNING
When inflating a tyre equipped with TPMS,
hold the nozzle of the pump directly against
the valve to avoid damaging the valve.
NOTE
•
After a tyre has been inflated, always refit
the dust cap in order to avoid damage to
the valve from gravel, dirt, etc.
•
Only use plastic dust caps. Metal dust
caps can rust and become difficult to
unscrew.
NOTE
If you want to change the tyre dimension then
the TPMS system must be reconfigured. For
further information - contact a Volvo dealer.

pressure
When the tyre pressure monitoring system
TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System) gives
a warning, the tyre pressure is too low in one or
more of the car's tyres.
If a tyre pressure message has been shown and
the TPMS indicator lamp has been illuminated:
1. Check the tyre pressure on the indicated
tyre/tyres with a tyre pressure gauge.
2. Inflate the tyre/tyres to the correct pressure
in accordance with the tyre pressure label on
the driver's side door pillar (between front
and rear doors).
3. In some cases it may be necessary to drive
the car for a few minutes at a speed above
30 km/h (20 mph) in order to clear the mes-
sage. At which point, the TPMS indicator
lamp is extinguished as well.
NOTE
•
The TPMS system uses a so-called com-
pensated pressure value, based on both
tyre temperature and ambient tempera-
ture. This means that the tyre pressure
may differ slightly from the recommended
pressures listed on the tyre pressure
label on the driver's side door pillar
(between front and rear doors). For this
reason, it may be necessary to inflate the
tyres to a slightly higher pressure in order
to clear a low tyre pressure message.
•
To avoid incorrect tyre pressure, the pres-
sure should be checked on cold tyres.
"Cold tyres" means the tyres are the
same temperature as the ambient tem-
perature (approx. 3 hours after the car
has been driven). After a few kilometres
of driving, the tyres warm up and the
pressure increases.
WARNING
•
Incorrect tyre pressure may lead to tyre
failure, which could result in the driver
losing control of the car.
•
The system cannot indicate sudden tyre
damage in advance.
