WHEELS AND TYRES
482
TyresAmongst other things, the function of the tyres is to carry load, provide grip on the road surface,dampen vibration and protect the wheel fromwear.
The tyres greatly affect the car's driving characte- ristics. The type of tyre, dimensions, tyre pressureand speed rating are important for how the carperforms.
Recommended tyresOn delivery, the car is equipped with Volvo origi- nal tyres that have the VOL 1
marking on the side
of the tyres. These tyres are carefully adapted to the car. In the event of changing tyres, it is there-fore important that the new tyres also have thismarking in order for the car's driving characteris-tics, comfort and fuel consumption to be main-tained.
New tyres
Tyres are perishable. After a few years they begin to harden at the same time as the frictioncapacity/characteristics gradually deteriorate. Forthis reason, aim to get as fresh tyres as possiblewhen you replace them. This is especially impor-tant with regard to winter tyres. The last four dig-its in the sequence mean the week and year ofmanufacture. This is the tyre's DOT marking(Department of Transportation), and this is statedwith four digits, for example 0715. The tyre in thefigure was manufactured in week 07 of 2015.
Tyre ageAll tyres older than 6 years old should bechecked by an expert even if they seem undam-aged. Tyres age and decompose, even if they arehardly ever or never used. The function cantherefore be affected. This applies to all tyres that are stored for future use. Examples of externalsigns which indicate that the tyre is unsuitable foruse are cracks or discoloration.
Wear and maintenanceCorrect tyre pressure results in more even wear.Driving style, tyre pressure, climate and road con-dition affect how quickly the tyres age and wear. To avoid differences in tread depth and to pre- vent wear patterns forming on the tyres, the frontand rear wheels can be switched with each other.A suitable distance for the first change is approx.5000 km and then at 10000 km intervals. Volvo recommends the an authorised Volvo work- shop is contacted for checking if you are uncer-tain about tread depth. If significant differences inwear (> 1 mm difference in tread depth) betweentyres have already occurred, then the least worntyres must always be fitted on the rear. Under-steer is normally easier to correct than oversteer,and leads to the car continuing forwards in astraight line rather than having the rear end skid-ding to one side, resulting in possible completeloss of control over the car. This is why it isimportant for the rear wheels never to lose gripbefore the front wheels.
WARNING
A damaged tyre may lead to loss of control over the car.

There may be deviations for certain tyre dimensions.

Checking tyre pressure with the tyre monitoring system *
With the system for tyre monitoring, Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (ITPMS), tyre pres-sure status can be viewed in the centre display.
Checking status1. Open the Car status app in the app view.
2.Tap on Status to show the status of the
tyres.
Status indication
The graphics show the status for each tyre.
Status view 2
.
Green tyre:
• The tyre pressure is above the limit value for a warning.
Yellow tyre:
• The tyre's pressure is too low. Stop andcheck/rectify the tyre pressure as soon aspossible. Calibrate ITPMS after the tyre pres-sure has been adjusted.
All tyres yellow:
• The pressure is too low in two or more tyres.Stop and check/rectify the tyre pressures assoon as possible. Calibrate ITPMS after thetyre pressures have been adjusted. All tyres grey:
• Calibration in progress.
• Unknown status.
Several minutes driving above 30 km/h (20 mph)may be required for the system to become active. All tyres grey and a message:
•
Tyre pressure system Temporarily
unavailable. The indicator symbol flashes
and changes to constant glow after approx. 1 minute. The system is currently unavailable,activated shortly.
•
Tyre pressure system Service required.
The indicator symbol flashes and changes to constant glow after approx. 1 minute. Thesystem is not working correctly, contact anauthorised Volvo workshop (recommended).

Calibrating tyre monitoring *
In order for the Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (ITPMS) to work correctly, a referencevalue for the tyre pressure must be determined.This must be performed each time the tyres arechanged or the tyre pressure is changed.
For example, when driving with a heavy load or at high speed above 160 km/h (100 mph), the tyrepressure should be adjusted in accordance withVolvo's recommended tyre pressure values. Fol-lowing which, the system must be recalibrated.
1. Stop the engine.
2. Inflate the tyres to the desired pressure in accordance with the tyre pressure label on the door pillar on the driver's side.
3. Start the engine. 4.
Open the
Car status app in the app view.
5.Tap on Status to view tyre monitoring.
NOTE
The car must be stationary when calibration is started.
6.Press Calibrate.
7. Tap on
OK to confirm that the tyre pressure
in all four tyres has been checked and adjusted. 8. Drive the car.
Calibration is performed while the car is driv-ing. Calibration is interrupted temporarily ifthe engine is switched off, but is resumedautomatically when the car is driven again.
> When sufficient data has been collectedto enable the system to detect low tyre pressure, the tyres in the centre displaychange colour from grey to green. Thesystem provides no additional confirma-tion that the calibration is complete. If calibration fails, a message is shown:
Calibration unsuccessful. Please try again..
NOTE
Remember that the TPMS system must be recalibrated at each tyre change or if the tyrepressure is adjusted. New reference valuesmust be stored for the system to work cor-rectly.

Emergency puncture repair kitThe emergency puncture repair kit, Temporary Mobility Kit (TMK), is used to seal a puncture aswell as to check and adjust the air pressure.
The puncture repair kit consists of a compressor and a bottle with sealing fluid. The sealing worksas a temporary repair. The sealing fluid effectivelyseals tyres punctured in the tread. The puncture repair kit has limited capacity to seal tyres which have punctures in the wall. Donot use the puncture repair kit on tyres that havelarger slits, cracks or similar damage.
NOTE
The emergency puncture repair kit is only intended for sealing tyres with a puncture inthe tread.
NOTE
The compressor for temporary emergency puncture repair has been tested andapproved by Volvo.
LocationThe puncture repair kit is located in the foam block under the floor in the cargo area.
Sealing fluid bottleReplace the bottle with sealing fluid before the expiration date has passed and after use. Treatthe old bottle as environmentally hazardouswaste.
WARNING
The bottle contains 1.2-Ethanol and natural rubber-latex.
• Harmful if ingested.
• Could result in allergic reaction in the event of skin contact.
• Avoid contact with the skin and eyes.
• Store out of the reach of children.
WARNING
• In the event of skin contact with the seal- ing fluid, it must be washed off immedi-ately with soap and plenty of water.
• Sealing fluid that makes contact with aneye must be rinsed away immediately witheye wash fluid or with plenty of water. Ifthe discomfort persists then the eyeshould be examined by a doctor.
