Saving a new inflation pressure in
the monitoring system*
In order for the tire pressure monitoring system9
to function correctly, tire pressure reference val-ues must be saved correctly. To help ensure thatthe system can correctly alert the driver of lowinflation pressure, this must be done each timethe tires are changed or the inflation pressure isadjusted.
For example, when driving with a heavy load or athigh speeds (over 160 km/h (100 mph)), tirepressure should be adjusted to the Volvo-recom-mended tire pressure values. The system shouldthen be reset by saving the new inflation pres-sure.
To store the new inflation pressure as a refer-ence value in the system:
1.Switch off the ignition.
2. Inflate the tire to the correct inflation pres-sure; see the tire pressure placard on thedriver's side B pillar for recommended pres-sures for factory-mounted tires.
3. Start the vehicle.
4.Open the Car Status app in App view.
5.Tap TPMS.
NOTE
The vehicle must be stationary for the StorePressure button to be selectable.
6.Tap Store Pressure.
7.Tap OK to confirm that the tire pressure inall four tires has been checked and adjusted.
8.Drive the vehicle until the new inflation pres-sure has been saved.
The new inflation pressure is stored whenthe vehicle is driven at speeds over 35 km/h(22 mph).
If the vehicle's ignition is switched off beforethe new inflation pressure has been saved,the procedure must be performed again. Tohelp ensure that the new inflation pressure issaved correctly, allow the storing procedureto complete during a single operating cycle.
>If storing cannot be performed, Storingpressure unsuccessful. Try again. willbe displayed.
WARNING
The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide,which is invisible and odorless but very poi-sonous. The procedure for saving a new infla-tion pressure must therefore always be per-formed outdoors or in a workshop withexhaust gas extraction.

Action when warned of low tirepressure
When the inflation pressure monitoring system11
detects low inflation pressure in a tire, immediateaction is required.
If the system's indicator symbol illumi-nates and the message Tire pressurelow is displayed, check the tire pres-sure and inflate if necessary.
1. Switch off the ignition.
2.Check the inflation pressure on all four tiresusing a tire pressure gauge.
3. Inflate the tire to the correct inflation pres-sure; see the tire pressure placard on thedriver's side B pillar for recommended pres-sures for factory-mounted tires.
4. After the inflation pressure has beenadjusted, always save the new inflation pres-sure in the system via the center display.
Please be aware that the indicator symbolwill not go out until the low tire pressure hasbeen corrected and a storing procedure hasbeen started for the new inflation pressure.
NOTE
To help prevent incorrect inflation pressure,pressure should be checked when the tiresare cold. The tires are considered to be coldwhen they have reached the same tempera-ture as the ambient temperature (about 3hours after the vehicle was last driven). Afterdriving for a few kilometers, the tires will warmup and the pressure will increase.
NOTE
After inflating a tire, always replace thevalve cap to help prevent valve damagecaused by gravel, dirt, etc.
Use plastic valve caps only. Metal capscould corrode and become difficult toremove.
WARNING
Incorrect inflation pressure could lead totire failure, which could cause the driverto lose control of the vehicle.
The system cannot predict sudden tiredamage.

Spare wheel13
The spare wheel is a Temporary Spare and canbe used to temporarily replace a punctured tireon one of the vehicle's regular wheels.
The spare tire is only intended for temporary use.Replace it with a normal wheel as soon as possi-ble.
The driving characteristics of the vehicle changeand ground clearance reduces when the sparewheel is used. Do not wash the vehicle in anautomatic car wash while using the TemporarySpare.
The recommended tire pressure must be main-tained regardless of at which position the tempo-rary spare wheel is used on the vehicle.
If the spare wheel is damaged, a new one can bepurchased from a Volvo retailer.
WARNING
Current legislation prohibits the use of the"Temporary Spare" tire other than as a tem-porary replacement for a punctured tire. Itmust be replaced as soon as possible by astandard tire. Road holding and handling maybe affected with the "Temporary Spare" inuse. Do not drive faster than 80 km/h(50 mph).
