Tire Monitor - introduction
Tire Monitor uses the rotational speed of the
tires in combination with signal analysis of the
ABS sensor signals to determine if they are
properly inflated.
When a tire is under-inflated, its diameter (and
consequently also its rotational speed) changes.
By comparing the individual tires with each other
it is possible to determine if one or more tires are
under inflated.
When low inflation pressure is detected or if the
system is not functioning properly, Tire Monitor
will light up the tire pressure warning light
(
) (also referred to as a telltale) in the
instrument panel and will display one of several
messages in the text window, for example:
Tire
pressure low Check tires
. Adjust the inflation
pressure and recalibrate if necessary.
If a malfunction occurs in the system, the tire
pressure warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute and then remain illuminated.
Tire press. syst Service required
will be
displayed.
The system indicates low tire pressure but
does not replace normal tire maintenance. For
information on correct tire pressure, please
refer to the tire inflation decal on the driver's
door opening or consult your Volvo retailer.

Calibrating Tire Monitor
In order for Tire Monitor to work correctly, tire
pressure reference values must be set (the sys-
tem must be calibrated). This must be done
each time wheels or tire pressures are changed.
Calibration
1. Switch off the engine.
2. Inflate the tires to the desired pressure (con-
sult tire pressure placard located on the driv-
er's side B-pillar (the structural member at
the side of the vehicle).
3. Start the engine but keep the vehicle at a
standstill.
4. Press the

button on the center
console control panel and press
OK/MENU
.
5. Select
