Volvo V60, Owner'S Manual

Page: 99 / 176

PRACTICAL INFORMATION
* Option/accessory. 97
NOTE
•
If you change to tires with a different
dimension than the factory-installed ones,
the TPMS system must be reconfigured
for these tires. This must be done by a
trained and qualified Volvo service techni-
cian.
•
If a tire is changed, or if the TPMS sensor
is moved to another wheel, the sensor's
seal, nut, and valve core should be
replaced.
•
When installing TPMS sensors, the vehi-
cle must be parked for at least
15 minutes with the ignition off. If the
vehicle is driven within 15 minutes, a
TPMS error message will be displayed.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) – recalibrating
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
uses a reference value in order to determine if
tire pressure is too low.
Recalibrating TPMS (Canadian models
only)
*
In certain cases, it may be necessary to recali-
brate TPMS to conform to Volvo's recommended
tire inflation pressures (see the tire inflation decal
on the driver's door opening), for example, if
higher inflation pressure is necessary when
transporting heavy loads.
Always inflate the tires to Volvo's recommended
tire pressure before recalibrating TPMS.
Recalibrating TPMS is done in the vehicle's menu
system.
To do so:
1. Switch off the engine.
2. Inflate the tires to the desired pressure and
put the ignition in mode
I
or
II
(see Ignition
modes (p. 65) for additional information).
3. Press the
MY CAR
key in the center console
control panel and select
Settings Car
settings Tire pressure
.
4. Press
OK/MENU
, select
Calibrate tire
pressure
and press
OK/MENU
again.
5. Drive the vehicle at a speed above 20 mph
(30 km/h) continuously for at least
10 minutes.
> Calibration is done automatically once ini-
tiated by the driver and the system does
not provide confirmation when calibration
is completed.
After adjusting inflation pressure, repeat steps
1-5 above.
