WARNING
•
Do not remove the bottle when the punc-
ture repair kit is being used.
•
Do not remove the air hose when the
puncture repair kit is being used.
1. Set up the warning triangle and activate the
hazard warning lights if a tyre is being sealed
in a trafficked location.
If the puncture was caused by a nail or simi-
lar, allow this to remain in the tyre. It helps to
seal the hole.
2. Detach the decal for maximum permitted
speed that is affixed on one side of the com-
pressor. Affix it visibly on the windscreen as a
reminder to observe the speed limit. You
should not drive faster than 80 km/h
(50 mph) after the emergency tyre repair kit
has been used.
WHEELS AND TYRES
3. Check that the switch is in position 0 (Off),
and locate the electrical cable and the air
hose.
4. Unscrew the orange-coloured cap from the
compressor, and unscrew the cork from the
sealing fluid bottle.
5. Screw in the bottle to the bottom of the bot-
tle holder.
The bottle and the bottle holder are equip-
ped with a reverse catch to prevent sealant
leakage. When the bottle is screwed in it
cannot be unscrewed from the bottle holder
again. Bottle removal must be performed at a
workshop, Volvo recommends an authorised
Volvo workshop.
WARNING
Do not unscrew the bottle, it is equipped with
a reverse catch to prevent leakage.
6. Unscrew the tyre's dust cap and screw in the
air hose's valve connection to the bottom of
the thread on the tyre's air valve.
Check that the pressure reducing valve on
the air hose is fully screwed in.
