Tire Sealing System* - Sealing Compound Container - Volvo S60 Owner's Manual

WARNING
•
The vehicle's engine should be running
when the tire sealing system is used to
avoid battery drain. Therefore, be sure
the vehicle is parked in a well ventilated
place, or outdoors, before using the
system. The parking brake should be
securely applied and the gear selector
should be in the P (park) position.
•
Children should never be left unatten-
ded in the vehicle when the engine is
running.
7. Check the tire's inflation pressure on the
gauge. Switch off the compressor briefly
to get a clear reading from the pressure
gauge.
8. Refer to the tire inflation table in this
chapter for the correct inflation pressure.
If the tire needs to be inflated, start the
tire sealing system's compressor (press
the on/off switch to position I). If neces-
sary, release air from the tire by turning
the air release knob counterclockwise.
CAUTION
The compressor should not be used for
more than 10 minutes at a time to avoid
overheating.
9. Turn off the compressor (press the on/off
switch to position 0) when the correct
inflation pressure has been reached.
10. Unscrew the hose from the tire's inflation
valve and reinstall the valve cap.
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.
11. Disconnect the electrical wire from the
12-volt socket.
