replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function prop-erly.
NOTE
TPMS indicates low tire pressure but does not replace normal tire maintenance. Forinformation on correct tire pressure, pleaserefer to the tire inflation pressure table inthis chapter or consult your Volvo retailer.
Erasing warning messagesWhen a low tire pressure warning message has been displayed, and the tire pressurewarning light has come on:
1. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the
inflation pressure of all four tires.
2. Re-inflate the tire(s) to the correct pres- sure (consult the tire pressure placard or the inflation pressure table on page 320.
3. In certain cases, it may be necessary to drive the vehicle for several minutes at aspeed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster. Thiswill erase the warning text and the warn-ing light will go out.
WARNING
Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, resulting in a loss of control ofthe vehicle.
Changing wheels with TPMSPlease note the following when changing or replacing the factory installed TPMS wheels/tires on the vehicle:
• Only the factory-mounted wheels are equipped with TPMS sensors in thevalves.
• If the vehicle is equipped with a tempo-rary spare tire, this tire does not have aTPMS sensor.
• If wheels without TPMS sensors are mounted on the vehicle,
TIRE PRESS
SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be dis-
played each time the vehicle is driven above 25 mph (40 km/h) for 10 minutes ormore.
• Once TPMS sensors are properly instal-led, the warning message should notreappear. If the message is still displayed,drive the vehicle for several minutes at aspeed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster toerase the message.
• Volvo recommends that TPMS sensorsbe fitted on all wheels used on the vehi-cle. Volvo does not recommend moving sensors back and forth between sets ofwheels.
CAUTION
When inflating tires with TPMS valves, press the pump's mouthpiece straightonto the valve to help avoid bending orotherwise damaging the valve.
CAUTION
•
After pumping the tires, always rein- stall the valve cap to help avoid dam-age to the valve from dirt, gravel, etc.
• Use plastic valve caps only. Metalcaps could corrode and become diffi-cult to remove.

342* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
NOTE
• If you change to tires with a different recommended inflation pressure, theTPMS system must be recalibrated tothese tires. On U.S. models, this mustbe done by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician. On Canadianmodels, see the following section"Recalibrating TPMS."
• If a tire is changed, or if the TPMS sen-sor is moved to another wheel, thesensor's seal, nut, and valve coreshould be replaced.
• When installing TPMS sensors, thevehicle must be parked for at least15 minutes with the ignition off. If thevehicle is driven within 15 minutes, aTPMS error message will be displayed.
Recalibrating TPMS (Canadian models only)*
In certain cases, it may be necessary to reca- librate TPMS to conform to Volvo's recom-mended tire inflation pressures (see the infla-tion pressure table on page 320), for exam-ple, if higher inflation pressure is necessarywhen transporting heavy loads, etc. This is done in the vehicle's menu system. See page 219 for a description of the menusystem. To recalibrate:
1. Switch off the engine.
2. Inflate the tires to the desired pressure
and put the ignition in mode I or II (see
page 91 for additional information).
3. Press the MY CAR key in the center con-
sole control panel and select
Settings
Car settingsTyre pressure
4. Press OK/MENU , select Calibrate tyre
pressure and press OK/MENU again.
5. Drive the vehicle at a speed above 25 mph (40 km/h) continuously for at least 10 minutes.
> When the calibration message is nolonger displayed, TPMS has been recalibrated to the new inflation pres-sure.
Activating/deactivating TPMS
(Canadian models only)*
1. Switch off the engine.
2. Put the ignition in mode I or II (see page
91 for additional information).
3. Press the MY CAR key in the center con-
sole control panel and select
Settings
Car settingsTyre pressure
4. Select Tyre pressure system and press
OK/MENU to turn the system on or off.
Self-supporting run flat tires (SST)*
Self-supporting run flat tires are available as optional equipment. The vehicle must beequipped with the Tire Pressure MonitoringSystem (TPMS) if tires of this type are instal-led. Tires of this type have specially reinforced sidewalls that make it possible to continuedriving to a limited extent even though the tirehas lost some or all of its inflation pressure.These tires are mounted on special rims (nor-mal tires can also be mounted on these rims). If an SST tire loses inflation pressure, the yel- low TPMS symbol illuminates in the instru-ment panel and a text message is also dis-played. If this happens, reduce speed to notmore than 50 mph (80 km/h). The tire shouldbe replaced as soon as possible. Drive carefully; it may be difficult to determine which tire is damaged. To find the damagedtire, check the inflation pressure in all fourtires.

WARNING
•SST tires should only be mounted by service technicians who are familiarwith tires of this type.
• SST tires may only be mounted onvehicles equipped with TPMS.
• Do not drive faster than 50 mph(80 km/h) if TPMS indicates that a tirehas lost inflation pressure.
• Do not drive farther than 50 miles(80 km) before replacing a damagedSST tire.
• Drive carefully and avoid e.g., hardbraking or fast turns.
• SST tires must be replaced if they aredamaged. A tire of this type cannot berepaired.
