WHEELS AND TYRES

14. As soon as possible, drive at least 3 km
(2 miles) at a maximum speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph) so that the sealing fluid can seal
the tyre, and then perform a follow-up check.
WARNING
Sealant will spurt out of the puncture during
the first few rotations of the tyre. Make sure
that nobody is standing near the car and gets
the sealing fluid splashed onto them when
the car is driven away. The distance should be
at least 2 metres (7 feet).
15. Follow-up inspection
Connect the air hose on the tyre valve and
screw in the valve connection to the bottom
of the tyre valve's thread. The compressor
must be switched off.
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.
