Towing the vehicle
Always check with state and local authorities before attempting to tow another vehiclebecause this type of towing is subject to reg-ulations regarding maximum towing speed,length and type of towing device, lighting, etc.
1. With the remote key fully pressed into theignition slot 22
, press START/STOP
ENGINE for approximately 2 seconds to
activate ignition mode II.
2. The remote key must remain in the igni- tion slot 23
for the entire time that the vehi-
cle is being towed.
3. Keep the tow rope taut when the towing vehicle slows down by applying light pressure on the brake pedal. This willhelp prevent jarring movements of thevehicle being towed.
4. Be prepared to apply the brakes to stop the vehicle being towed.CAUTION
General towing precautions:
• Please check with state and local authorities before attempting this typeof towing, as vehicles being towed aresubject to regulations regarding maxi-mum towing speed, length and type oftowing device, lighting, etc.
• If the vehicle's battery is dead, seeJump starting (p. 251) to provide cur-rent for releasing the electric parkingbrake and to move the gear selectorfrom the
P position to N. If this is not
possible, see Transmission – shiftlockoverride (p. 256) for information aboutmanually overriding the shiftlock sys-tem to move the gear selector from P
to N.
• Maximum speed: 50 mph (80 km/h).Do not exceed the maximum allowabletowing speed.
• Maximum distance with front wheelson ground: 50 miles (80 km).
• The vehicle should only be towed inthe forward direction.

Attaching the towing eyeletThe towing eyelet is located under the floor of the cargo area, with the spare tireand may be partially concealed. This eye-let must be screwed into the positionsprovided on the right sides of either thefront or rear bumper (see illustration).
There are two different types of covers over the openings for the towing eyeletand they have to be opened differently.
• If the cover has a notch, insert a coin, etc., into the notch and pry open theedge of the cover. Open the covercompletely and remove it.
• If the cover has a mark along one edgeor in a corner, press the mark whileprying out the opposite side/cornerusing a coin, etc. Open the cover andremove it.
Screw the towing eyelet in place, first by hand and then using the tire iron until it issecurely in place. After the vehicle has been towed, the eyelet should be removed and returned to its stor-age location. Press the cover for the attachment point back into position.
WARNING
• When the vehicle is being towed, the ignition should be in mode
II (in mode
I , all of the vehicle's airbags are deac-
tivated). For more information, seeIgnition modes (p. 79)
• Never remove the remote key from theignition slot when the vehicle is beingtowed. For vehicles with keyless drive,the remote key must remain inside thevehicle.
• The power brakes and power steeringwill not function when the engine is notrunning. Approximately 5 times morepressure will be required on the brakepedal and the steering wheel will beconsiderably harder to turn.
• The towing eyelets must not be usedfor pulling the vehicle out of a ditch orfor any similar purpose involvingsevere strain.

Towing by tow truck
When necessary, call for professional help from an authorized towing company. Volvorecommends the use of flat bed equipment.
CAUTION
In certain conditions, the towing eyelet may be used to pull the vehicle onto aflatbed tow truck.
• The vehicle's position and ground clearance determine if it can be pulledup onto a flatbed tow truck using thetowing eyelet.
• If the angle of the tow truck’s ramp istoo steep or the ground clearanceunder the vehicle is insufficient, dam-age could occur by attempting to pullthe vehicle using the towing eyelet.
• If necessary, lift the vehicle using thetow truck’s lifting device.
WARNING
No person or object should be behind the tow truck while the vehicle is being pulledup onto the flatbed.

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.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) – recalibrating
In certain cases, it may be necessary to recali- brate TPMS to conform to Volvo's recom-mended tire inflation pressures (see the infla-tion pressure table in Tire inflation – pressuretable (p. 301)), for example, if higher inflationpressure is necessary when transportingheavy loads, etc.
Recalibrating TPMS (Canadian models
only)*
This is done in the vehicle's menu system. 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

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 tire6 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. 301)), 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.

Calibrating Tire Monitor
In order for Tire Monitor to work correctly, tire pressure reference values must be set. Thismust be done each time wheels or tire pres-sures are changed.
Calibration1. Switch off the engine.
2. Inflate the tires to the desired pressure
(consult tire pressure placard located on the driver's side B-pillar (the structuralmember at the side of the vehicle) andput the ignition in mode II, see Ignition
modes (p. 79).
3. Press the MY CAR button on the center
console control panel and select
Settings
Car settingsTire monitoring.
4. Press OK/MENU , select
Calibrate tire
pressure and press OK/MENU again.
5. Drive away. > The calibration process will be comple-ted while driving and will be interrupted if the vehicle is parked and the engineis switched off. Calibration continuesautomatically when driving resumes.The system will not give any confirma-tion when calibration is finishedalthough it will state if calibration fails.
