Please keep the following points in mind  
when using the tire sealing system:  
Connecting  
The sealing compound bottle (no. 8 in  
the illustration) contains 1) rubber latex,  
natural and 2) ethanediol. These sub-  
stances are harmful if swallowed.

the upper and lower eyelids. Get medi-  
cal attention if symptoms occur.  
2. Peel off the speed limit sticker from the  
side of the compressor. Affix the decal to a  
clearly visible location on the windshield  
to remind the driver not to exceed this  
speed limit. Do not drive faster than  
80 km/h (50 mph) while using a tire that  
has been temporarily repaired with the tire  
sealing system.  
6. Unscrew the tire's valve cap and screw  
the hose's valve connector as far as possi-  
ble onto the valve.  
Inhalation: Move the exposed person  
to fresh air. If irritation persists, get  
medical attention.  
Be sure the air release valve on the com-  
pressor's hose is completely closed.  
Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting  
unless directed to do so by medical  
personnel. Get medical attention.  
7. Connect the electrical cable to the nearest  
12 V outlet and start the vehicle.  
3. Make sure the switch is in the 0 (Off)  
position and take out the electric cable  
and the hose.  
Disposal: Dispose of this material and  
its container at a hazardous or special  
waste collection point.  
NOTE  
Make sure that none of the vehicle's other  
12 V sockets are used while the compres-  
sor is running.  
4. Unscrew the orange cover on the com-  
pressor and unscrew the cap on the seal-  
ing compound bottle.  
WARNING  
Do not remove the bottle while the tire  
sealing system is being used.  
WARNING  
5. Screw the bottle onto the bottle holder as  
far as possible.  
Never leave children unattended in the  
vehicle while the engine is running.  
Do not remove the hose while the tire  
sealing system is being used.  
The bottle and the bottle holder are equip-  
ped with catches to help prevent the seal-  
ing compound from leaking. Once the bot-  
tle is screwed into place into the bottle  
holder, it cannot be unscrewed. The bottle  
WARNING  
1. Turn on the vehicle's hazard warning  
flashers if the tire sealing system is to be  
used in an area with traffic.  
Inhaling exhaust fumes could lead to seri-  
ous injury. Never leave the engine running  
in an enclosed space or a space without  
sufficient ventilation.  
can only be removed by a workshop18  
.
If the puncture was caused by a nail or  
similar object, do not remove it. It will help  
seal the hole.  
WARNING  
Do not unscrew the bottle. It is equipped  
with a catch to prevent leakage.

|| 8. Start the compressor by moving the  
switch to the I (On) position.  
10. Switch off the compressor and check the  
inflation pressure using the air pressure  
gauge. The inflation pressure should be  
between 1.8 bar (22 psi) and 3.5 bar  
(51 psi). If the inflation pressure is too  
high, use the air release valve to release  
air.  
13. Put the protective hose cover onto the  
hose to help prevent leakage of any resid-  
ual sealing compound. Return the equip-  
ment to the cargo compartment.  
WARNING  
14. Immediately drive the vehicle at least  
3 km (2 miles) at a maximum speed of  
80 km/h (50 mph) to allow the sealing  
compound to seal the tire, and then  
recheck the inflation pressure.  
Never stand next to a tire being inflated  
with the compressor. If cracks, bulges, etc.  
form on the tire, switch off the compressor  
immediately. The vehicle should not be  
driven. Call roadside assistance to have the  
vehicle towed to a workshop for inspec-  
tion/replacement of the tire. Volvo recom-  
mends an authorized workshop.  
WARNING  
If pressure falls below 1.8 bar (22 psi), the  
hole in the tire may be too large. The vehi-  
cle should not be driven. Call roadside  
assistance to have the vehicle towed to a  
workshop for inspection/replacement of  
the tire. Volvo recommends an authorized  
workshop.  
WARNING  
During the tire's first revolution, some seal-  
ing compound may spray out of the punc-  
ture hole. Before driving away, make sure  
that no one is near the vehicle who could  
be sprayed with sealing compound. Make  
sure no one is within 2 meters(7 feet) of  
the vehicle.  
NOTE  
When the compressor first starts, air pres-  
sure may temporarily increase up to 6 bar  
(88 psi) but should decrease again after  
approximately 30 seconds.  
11. Switch off the compressor and remove  
the electrical cable.  
12. Unscrew the hose from the tire's valve and  
screw the valve cap back on.  
15. Rechecking the inflation pressure  
9. Inflate the tire for 7 minutes.  
Connect the hose to the tire's valve and  
screw the hose connector onto the valve  
as far as possible. The compressor must  
be switched off.  
CAUTION  
NOTE  
To help avoid overheating, the compressor  
should never be used for more than  
10 minutes at a time.  
After inflating a tire, always replace the  
valve cap to help prevent valve damage  
caused by gravel, dirt, etc.  
Use plastic valve caps only. Metal caps  
could corrode and become difficult to  
remove.
