pressure telltale. When the system detects a mal-function, the telltale will flash for approximatelyone minute and then remain continuously illumi-nated. This sequence will continue upon subse-quent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunc-tion exists. When the malfunction indicator is illu-minated, the system may not be able to detect orsignal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety ofreasons, including the installation of replacementor alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle thatprevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale afterreplacing one or more tires or wheels on yourvehicle to ensure that the replacement or alter-nate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to con-tinue to function properly.
Messages in the instrument panel
If tire pressure is too low, the low tire pressurewarning symbol is shown in the instrument panelalong with a message.
Tire pressure low Check tires, calibrateafter fill
Tire pressure system Temporarilyunavailable
Tire pressure system Service required
To keep in mind
Always calibrate the system after changingwheels or adjusting tire pressure. See the tirepressure placard on the driver's side B pillarfor Volvo-recommended tire pressures.
If you switch to a tire of another size than thefactory-mounted tires, the system must becalibrated for these tires to avoid false warn-ings.
If a spare wheel8 is used, it is possible thatthe tire pressure monitoring system will notwork correctly due to the differencesbetween the wheels.
The system does not replace the need forregular tire inspection and maintenance.
It is not possible to deactivate the tire pres-sure monitoring system.
WARNING
Incorrect inflation pressure could lead totire failure, which could cause the driverto lose control of the vehicle.
The system cannot predict sudden tiredamage.

Calibrating the tire pressure
monitoring system*
In order for the tire pressure monitoring system 9
to function correctly, tire pressure reference val-ues must be set correctly. This must be doneeach time the tires are changed or the tire pres-sure is adjusted.
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 recalibrated.
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 car must be stationary when calibration isstarted.
6.Tap Calibrate.
7.Tap OK to confirm that the tire pressure inall four tires has been checked and adjusted.
8.Run the car until calibration is complete.
Calibration is done when the vehicle is driv-ing at a speed above 35 km/h (22 mph).
If the car's ignition is switched off before cal-ibration is complete, the tires in the centerdisplay change color from gray to green uponnext start-up, even if calibration is not com-plete. Perform the calibration again and allowit to complete within the same operatingcycle to ensure that the calibration is carriedout correctly.
> When enough data has been collected forthe system to detect low tire pressure, thecolor of the tire symbols in the center dis-play will change from gray to green. Thesystem will not provide any other confir-mation that calibration has been comple-ted.
If start-up of calibration fails, the followingmessage appears: Calibrationunsuccessful. Try again..

NOTE
Always remember to calibrate the Tire Pres-sure Monitoring System when the wheelshave been changed or the tire inflation pres-sure has been corrected according to the tirepressure decal or tire inflation pressure table.
If correct reference values have not been set,the system cannot issue low tire pressurealerts correctly.
The vehicle must be stationary with theengine running to access the calibration but-ton and to start the calibration process.
WARNING
The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide,which is invisible and odorless but very poi-sonous. For this reason, always perform thecalibration procedure outdoors or in a work-shop with exhaust gas evacuation equipment.

Action when warned of low tirepressure
When the system for monitoring inflation pres-
sure 13 detects low inflation pressure in a tire,immediate action 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. Through calibration of the system via thecenter display after the tire pressure hasbeen adjusted.
Please be aware that the indicator symbolwill not go out until the low tire pressure hasbeen corrected and the system has beenrecalibrated.
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 wheel15
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).
