Stage 2 – Checking inflation pressure
1. Park the car in a safe place.
2. Ensure that the orange switch (2) is in
position 0 (the 0 side of the switch
should be pressed down).
3. Remove the valve cap from the tire's
inflation valve and screw the hose con-
nector onto the valve as tightly as
possible by hand.
WARNING
If heavy vibrations, unsteady steering
behavior, or noises should occur while driv-
ing, reduce speed and park the car in a safe
place. Recheck the tire for bumps, cracks,
or other visible damage, and recheck its
inflation pressure. If the pressure is below
16 psi (1.3 bar), do not continue driving.
Have the vehicle towed to a workshop or
Volvo retailer.
4. Connect the electrical wire to the near-
est 12-volt socket in the vehicle.
5. Start the vehicle's engine.
6. Check the tire's inflation pressure on
the gauge (9).
NOTE
In dark conditions, switching on the tire
sealing system's compressor will illuminate
the pressure gauge.
7. Inflate the tire to the correct pressure
as indicated in the tire inflation tables
on pages 156 and 157. If the tire needs
to be inflated, start the tire sealing
system's compressor. If necessary,
release air from the tire by pressing the
vent button (8).
8. Turn off the compressor (press switch 2
to the 0 position) when the correct
inflation pressure has been reached.
CAUTION
The compressor should not be used for
more than ten minutes at a time to avoid
overheating.
9. Unscrew the hose from the tire's infla-
tion valve and reinstall the valve cap.
10. Disconnect the electrical wire from the
12-volt socket.

replaced. See the instructions on the follow-
ing page. Contact a Volvo retailer for
replacement parts.
