WHEELS AND TIRES
16. Check the inflation pressure on the air
pressure gauge.
Inflate tires with the compressor
included in the tire sealing system
The vehicle's original tires can be inflated
using the compressor in the tire sealing sys-
tem.
1. The compressor must be switched off.
Make sure that the switch is in the 0 (Off)
position and take out the electrical cable
and the hose.
WARNING
After using the tire sealing system, the
vehicle should not be driven farther than
approximately 200 km (120 miles).
If the pressure is under 1.3 bar (19 psi),
the tire is not sufficiently sealed. The
vehicle should not be driven. Call road-
side assistance to have the vehicle
towed.
•
NOTE
The compressor is an electric device. Fol-
low local regulations for disposal.
If the inflation pressure is higher than
1.3 bar (19 psi), the tire must be inflated
to the inflation pressure specified on
the tire pressure decal on the driver's
side door pillar (1 bar = 100 kPa =
14.5 psi). If the inflation pressure is too
high, use the air release valve to release
air.
•
2. Unscrew the tire's valve cap and screw
the hose's valve connector as far as possi-
ble onto the valve.

3. Connect the electrical cable to the nearest
12 V outlet and start the vehicle.
WARNING
Check inflation pressure regularly.
WARNING
Inhaling exhaust fumes could lead to seri-
ous injury. Never leave the engine running
in an enclosed space or a space without
sufficient ventilation.
Volvo recommends driving to the nearest
authorized Volvo workshop to have the tire
replaced/repaired. Inform the workshop that
the tire contains sealing compound.
The sealing compound bottle and the hose
must be replaced after use. Volvo recom-
mends contacting an authorized Volvo work-
shop for replacement.
WARNING
Never leave children unattended in the
vehicle while the engine is running.
