16. Read the tyre pressure on the pressure
gauge.
If it is below 1.3 bar (19 psi) then the tyre
•
is insufficiently sealed. The journey should
not be continued. Call roadside assistance
for recovery.
If the tyre pressure is higher than 1.3 bar
•
(19 psi), the tyre must be inflated to the
pressure specified in accordance with the
tyre pressure label on the driver's side
door pillar (1 bar = 100 kPa = 14.5 psi).
Release air using the pressure reducing
valve if the tyre pressure is too high.
WARNING
Check the tyre pressure regularly.
Volvo recommends that the car is driven to the
nearest authorised Volvo workshop for the
replacement/repair of the damaged tyre. Advise
the workshop that the tyre contains sealing fluid.
The sealing fluid bottle and hose must be
replaced after use. Volvo recommends that these
replacements be performed by an authorised
Volvo workshop.
WARNING
Maximum mileage with tyres containing seal-
ing fluid is 200 km (120 miles).
NOTE
The compressor is an electrical device. Follow
local regulations related to waste manage-
ment.
