• TSA may not intervene when the vehicleand trailer begin to sway if the driver triesto compensate for the swaying motion bymoving the steering wheel rapidly
How TSA worksOnce swaying has begun, it can be very diffi- cult to stop, which makes it difficult to controlthe vehicle and trailer. The TSA system continuously monitors the vehicle's movements, particularly lateralmovement. If the system detects a tendencyto sway, the brakes are applied individuallyon the front wheels, which has a stabilizingeffect on the vehicle and trailer. This is oftenenough to enable the driver to regain controlof the vehicle. If this is not adequate to stop the swaying motion, the brakes are applied to all of thewheels on the vehicle and on the trailer if it isequipped with brakes, and engine power istemporarily reduced. As the swaying motionbegins to decrease and the vehicle-trailerhave once again become stable, TSA will nowstop regulating the brakes/engine power andthe driver regains control of the vehicle.

trigger illumination of the system's low tire pressure telltale. Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate whenthe system is not operating properly. Themonitoring system's malfunction indicator iscombined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minuteand then remain continuously illuminated.This sequence will continue upon subsequentvehicle start-ups as long as the malfunctionexists. When the malfunction indicator is illu-minated, the system may not be able todetect or signal low tire pressure as intended. System malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation ofreplacement or alternate tires or wheels onthe vehicle that prevent the tire pressuremonitoring system from functioning properly. Always check the system's malfunction tell- tale after replacing one or more tires orwheels on your vehicle to ensure that thereplacement or alternate tires and wheelsallow the system to continue to functionproperly.
NOTE
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 pressuretable (see Tire inflation – pressure table(p. 305)), the tire inflation pressure placardlocated on the driver's side B-pillar (thestructural member at the side of the vehi-cle, at the rear of the driver's door open-ing) or consult your Volvo retailer.
WARNING
Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, resulting in a loss of control ofthe vehicle.
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) – general information
TPMS uses sensors mounted in the tire valves to check inflation pressure levels. When thevehicle is moving at a speed of approximately20 mph (30 km/h) or faster, these sensorstransmit inflation pressure data to a receiverlocated in the vehicle.
NOTE
USA – FCC ID: KR5S180052050 This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the fol-lowing conditions: (1) This device may notcause harmful interference, and (2) thisdevice must accept any interferencereceived, including interference that maycause undesired operation.
When low inflation pressure is detected or if a sensor is not functioning properly, TPMS will light up the tire pressure warning light (
)
(also referred to as a telltale) in the instrument panel and will display one of the following messages:
Tire pressure low, Tire needs

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) – changing wheels
Please keep the following in mind when changing or replacing the factory installedTPMS wheels/tires on the vehicle: •
Not all aftermarket wheels are equipped with TPMS sensors in the valves.
• If the vehicle is equipped with a tempo-rary spare tire, this tire does not have aTPMS sensor.
• If wheels without TPMS sensors aremounted on the vehicle, a text messagewill displayed in the instrument paneleach time the vehicle is driven above20 mph (30 km/h) for 10 minutes or more.
• 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, including winter tires. Volvo does notrecommend moving sensors back andforth between sets of wheels.
CAUTION
When inflating tires with TPMS sensors, press the pump's mouthpiece straightonto the valve to help avoid bending orotherwise damaging the valve.
CAUTION
• After inflating the tires, always reinstall the valve cap to help avoid damage tothe valve from dirt, gravel, etc.
• Use plastic valve caps only. Metalcaps could corrode and become diffi-cult to remove.
NOTE
•
If you change to tires with a different dimension than the factory-installedones, the TPMS system must bereconfigured for these tires. This mustbe done by a trained and qualifiedVolvo service technician.
• 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.

Erasing warning messagesWhen a low tire pressure warning message has been displayed and the tire pressure warning light in the instrument panell (
)
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 located on the driver's side B-pillar (thestructural member at the side of the vehi-cle, at the rear of the driver's door open-ing) or the inflation pressure table, seeTire inflation – pressure table (p. 305).
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 telltalewill go out.
NOTE
•Tire monitoring systems use a tem- perature compensated pressure value.This pressure value is dependent ontire temperature and ambient tempera-ture, which can differ from the recom-mended cold tire pressure in the tireinflation table and on the tire pressureplacard located on the driver's side B-pillar (the structural member at theside of the vehicle, at the rear of thedriver's door opening). This meansthat it may sometimes be necessary toinflate them slightly above the recom-mended cold pressure value(approx. 3-4 psi or 0.2-0.3 bar) in orderto reset a low tire pressure warning.
• To help avoid incorrect tire inflationpressure, if possible only inflate thetires when they are cold. The tires areconsidered to be cold when they havethe same temperature as the sur-rounding (ambient) air. This tempera-ture is normally reached after the vehi-cle has been parked for at least3 hours. After driving a distance ofapproximately 1 mile (1.6 km), the tiresare considered to be hot.

Tire Monitor - introduction
Tire Monitor uses the rotational speed of the tires in combination with signal analysis of theABS sensor signals to determine if they areproperly inflated. When a tire is under-inflated, its diameter (and consequently also its rotational speed)changes. By comparing the individual tireswith each other it is possible to determine ifone or more tires are under inflated. When low inflation pressure is detected or if the system is not functioning properly, TireMonitor will light up the tire pressure warning light (
) (also referred to as a telltale) in
the instrument panel and will display one of the following messages in the text window, for example:
Tire pressure low Check rear
right tire7 or Tire press. syst Service
required.
If two or more tires have low pressure or if the system cannot determine which tire has low pressure, a general text (
Tire pressure low
Check tires) will be displayed.
NOTE
If a malfunction occurs in the system, the tire pressure warning light will flash forapproximately 1 minute and then remain illuminated.
Tire press. syst Service
required will be displayed.
NOTE
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 pressuretable (see Tire inflation – pressure table(p. 305)), the tire inflation pressure placardlocated on the driver's side B-pillar (thestructural member at the side of the vehi-cle, at the rear of the driver's door open-ing) or consult your Volvo retailer.

Maintenance – owner maintenance
Periodic maintenance requirements and inter- vals are described in your vehicle's Warrantyand Service Records Information booklet. The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenanceservices.
Owner maintenance
Each time the car is refueled:
•Check the engine oil level.
• Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and taillights.
Monthly:
• Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect the tires for wear.
• Check that engine coolant and other fluidlevels are between the indicated "min"and "max" markings.
• Clean interior glass surfaces with a glasscleaner and soft paper towels.
• Wipe driver information displays with asoft cloth.
• Visually inspect battery terminals for cor-rosion. Corrosion may indicate a looseterminal connector, or a battery near theend of its useful service life. Consult yourVolvo retailer for additional information.
As needed:Wash the car, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can be caused by a buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can be caused bysalt residues. Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshield, and from otherplaces where they may collect.

Onboard Diagnostic System
OBD II is part of your vehicle's computerized engine management system. It stores diag-nostic information about your vehicle's emis-sion controls. It can light the Check Enginelight (MIL) if it detects an emission control"fault." A "fault" is a component or systemthat is not performing within an expectedrange. A fault may be permanent or tempo-rary. OBD II will store a message about anyfault.
Emission inspection readiness
How do states use OBD II for emission inspections?
Many states connect a computer directly to a vehicle's OBD II system. The inspector canthen read "faults." In some states, this type ofinspection has replaced the tailpipe emissiontest.
How can my vehicle fail OBD II emission
inspection?
Your vehicle can fail OBD II emission inspec- tion for any of the following reasons.
• If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit, your vehicle may fail inspection.
• If your vehicle's Check Engine light waslit, but went out without any action onyour part, OBD II will still have a recordedfault. Your vehicle may pass or fail,depending on the inspection practices inyour area. •
If you had recent service that requireddisconnecting the battery, OBD II diag-nostic information may be incompleteand "not ready" for inspection. A vehiclethat is not ready may fail inspection.
How can I prepare for my next OBD II
emission inspection?
• If your Check Engine (MIL) light is lit – or was lit but went out without service, haveyour vehicle diagnosed and, if necessary,serviced by a qualified Volvo technician.
• If you recently had service for a lit CheckEngine light, or if you had service thatrequired disconnecting the battery, aperiod of driving is necessary to bring theOBD II system to "ready" for inspection.Two half-hour trips of mixed stop-and-go/highway driving are typically neededto allow OBD II to reach readiness. YourVolvo retailer can provide you with moreinformation on planning a trip.
• Maintain your vehicle in accordance withyour vehicle's maintenance schedule.
