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.
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.
15. Rechecking the inflation pressure
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.
16. Check the inflation pressure on the air
pressure gauge.
If the pressure is under 1.3 bar (19 psi),
the tire is not sufficiently sealed. The
vehicle should not be driven. Call road-
side assistance to have the vehicle
towed.
If the inflation pressure is higher than
1.3 bar (19 psi), the tire must be inflated
to the inflation pressure specified on
the tire pressure decal on the driver's
side door pillar (1 bar = 100 kPa =
14.5 psi). If the inflation pressure is too
high, use the air release valve to release
air.
WARNING
Check inflation pressure regularly.
Volvo recommends driving to the nearest
authorized Volvo workshop to have the tire
replaced/repaired. Inform the workshop that
the tire contains sealing compound.
The sealing compound bottle and the hose
must be replaced after use. Volvo recom-
mends contacting an authorized Volvo work-
shop for replacement.
