CAUTION
When inflating tires, press the pump's mouth-
piece straight onto the valve to help avoid
bending or otherwise damaging the valve.
CAUTION
•
After inflating the tires, always reinstall
the valve cap to help avoid damage to the
valve from dirt, gravel, etc.
•
Use plastic valve caps only. Metal caps
could corrode and become difficult to
remove.
NOTE
•
If you change to tires with a different
dimension than the factory-installed ones,
the TPMS system must be reconfigured
for these tires. This must be done by a
trained and qualified Volvo service techni-
cian.
•
If a tire is changed, or if the TPMS sensor
is moved to another wheel, the sensor's
seal, nut, and valve core should be
replaced.
•
When installing TPMS sensors, the vehi-
cle must be parked for at least
15 minutes with the ignition off. If the
vehicle is driven within 15 minutes, a
TPMS error message will be displayed.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) – recalibrating
In certain cases, it may be necessary to recali-
brate TPMS to conform to Volvo's recom-
mended tire inflation pressures (see the tire infla-
tion decal on the driver's door opening), for
example, if higher inflation pressure is necessary
when transporting heavy loads.
Recalibrating TPMS (Canadian models
only)*
This is done in the vehicle's menu system.
To recalibrate:
1. Switch off the engine.
2. Inflate the tires to the desired pressure and
put the ignition in mode I or II (see Ignition
modes (p. 80) for additional information).
3. Press the MY CAR key in the center console

and press OK/MENU again.
5. Drive the vehicle at a speed above 20 mph
(30 km/h) continuously for at least
10 minutes.
> Calibration is done automatically once ini-
tiated by the driver and the system does
not give any confirmation when calibration
is finished.
