Emergency puncture repair kit

The emergency puncture repair kit, Temporary
Mobility Kit (TMK), is used to seal a puncture as
well as to check and adjust the air pressure.
The puncture repair kit consists of a compressor
and a bottle with sealing fluid. The sealing works
as a temporary repair. The sealing fluid effectively
seals tyres punctured in the tread.
The emergency puncture repair kit has limited
capacity to seal tyres which have punctures in the
wall. Do not use the puncture repair kit on tyres
that have larger slits, cracks or similar damage.
NOTE
The emergency puncture repair kit is only
intended for sealing tyres with a puncture in
the tread.
NOTE
The compressor for temporary emergency
puncture repair has been tested and
approved by Volvo.
Location
The puncture repair kit is located in the foam
block under the floor in the cargo area.
The illustration is schematic - details may vary depending on car model.
