2005 Volvo S80
• Recommended tire inflation pressure: inflation pressure, established by Volvo, which is based on
the type of tires that are mounted on a vehicle at the factory. This inflation pressure is affected by the
number of occupants in the car, the amount of cargo, and the speed at which the vehicle will be driven
for a prolonged period. This information can be found on the tire inflation placard(s) located on the
driver's side B-pillar or on the inside of the fuel filler door on Canadian models, and in the tire inflation
table in this chapter.
• Cold tires: The tires are considered to be cold when they have the same temperature as the
surrounding (ambient) air. This temperature is normally reached after the car has been parked for at least
3 hours.
