WARNING  
WARNING  
WARNING  
The bottle is equipped with a catch to  
keep it securely in place and help prevent  
sealing compound leakage. Once in place,  
the bottle cannot be unscrewed. This must  
be done by a trained and qualified Volvo  
service technician.  
The vehicle´s engine should be running  
when the tire sealing system is used to  
avoid battery drain. Therefore, be sure the  
vehicle is parked in a well ventilated place,  
or outdoors, before using the system.  
Never stand next to the tire being infla-  
ted when the compressor is in opera-  
tion.  
If cracks, bubbles, etc. form on the tire,  
switch off the compressor immediately.  
If there is visible damage to the sidewall  
or the rim, the tire cannot be repaired.  
The vehicle should not be driven if this  
occurs. Contact a towing service or  
Volvo On Call Roadside Assistance if  
applicable.  
8. Start the tire sealing system’s compres-  
sor by pressing the on/off switch to posi-  
tion I.  
5. Remove the valve cap from the tire’s  
inflation valve and screw the tire sealing  
system’s hose connector onto the valve  
as tightly as possible by hand.  
6. Connect the electrical wire to the nearest  
12-volt socket in the vehicle.  
NOTE  
The air pressure gauge will temporarily  
show an increase in pressure to approxi-  
mately 88 psi (6 bar) while the sealing  
compound is being pumped into the tire.  
The pressure should return to a normal  
level after approximately 30 seconds.  
NOTE  
Be sure that none of the other 12-volt  
sockets is being used while the compres-  
sor is in operation.  
7. Start the vehicle’s engine.  
9. Within seven minutes, inflate the tire to  
between 22—44 psi (1.8—3.0 bar).  
Switch off the compressor briefly to get a  
clear reading from the pressure gauge.
