specifications established by these regulatory
agencies.
Alternative fuels, including biodiesel, that are not
substantially similar to the required
test fuels
may adversely affect engine emissions
compliance. As a result, Volvo does not warrant
the engine will conform to applicable Federal or
California emissions limits when operated on
biodiesel or other alternative fuels that are not
substantially similar to specified test fuels used
for certification.
Additional maintenance is required and is
covered in the maintenance manual “Fuel
system” section.

RECOMMENDED TIRE INFLATION
PRESSURE AT MAXIMUM COLD LOAD
The recommended tire inflation pressures are
given in the applicable documents supplied with
the vehicle. In addition, maximum cold tire
inflation pressures are listed on the Department
of Transport's certification plate, affixed on the
panel behind the driver’s seat. For special tire
selection, a “
PREVOST COACH SPECIAL
SPECIFICATION ” chart is supplied with the
vehicle and is affixed next to the DOT
certification plate, located on the left wall close
to the driver’s seat.
NOTE
Bus Shells vehicles, before being converted,
are not at their maximum weight and tire
pressures are adjusted at lower level than the
maximum allowed appearing on the DOT
plate.
Tires pressure must be re-adjusted
once converted.
WARNING
Special tire selection may lower maximum
allowable speed limit, even below posted
speed limit. For maximum safety, check with
tire manufacturer.
Vehicles equipped with TPMS: The TPMS target
pressures are factory set to equal the prevailing
tire pressure at delivery time.
When tire
pressures are increased to account for higher
vehicle weight, the TPMS set point need to be
increased accordingly.
CAUTION
These tire pressures are established in
accordance with the maximum allowable load
on each axle. A lower pressure is
recommended if the axle load is less than the
above specifications. Weigh vehicle fully
loaded and pressurize according to tire
manufacturer's recommendations.
For non standard tire and wheel specifications,
see Prevost tire pressure tabulation in "Coach
Final Record" or special specification chart
affixed next to the DOT certification plate.
