NOTE: TPMS indicates low tire pressure but does not replace normal tire maintenance. For information on correct tire pressure, please refer to the tables on pages 146 and 147, or consult your Volvo retailer. Erasing warning messages When a low tire pressure warning message has been displayed, and the tire pressure warning light has come on: pg. 149 Wheels and tires Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - option on certain U.S. models only - Use a tire pressure gauge to check the inflation pressure of all four tires. - Re-inflate the tire(s) to the correct pressure (consult the tire pressure placard or the tables on pages 146 and 147). - Drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster. This will erase the warning text and the warning light will go out. WARNING! Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, resulting in a loss of control of the vehicle. Changing wheels with TPMS Please 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 the valves. If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire, this tire does not have a TPMS sensor.

Once TPMS sensors are properly installed, the warning message should not reappear. Volvo recommends that TPMS sensors be fitted on all wheels used on the vehicle. Volvo does not recommend moving sensors back and forth between sets of wheels. CAUTION! When inflating tires with TPMS valves, press the pump's mouthpiece straight onto the valve to help avoid bending or otherwise damaging the valve. pg. 150 Wheels and tires Self supporting run flat tires (option) Self supporting run flat tires Certain models equipped with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) can also be equipped with self supporting run flat tires.

Erasing warning messages
When a low tire pressure warning message has been displayed, and the tire pressure warning light has come on:
pg. 149 Wheels and tires
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - option on certain U.S. models only
- Use a tire pressure gauge to check the inflation pressure of all four tires.
- Re-inflate the tire(s) to the correct pressure (consult the tire pressure placard or the tables on
pages 146 and 147
).
- Drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster.
This will erase the warning text and the warning light will go out.
WARNING!
Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to tire failure, resulting in a loss of control of the vehicle.
Changing wheels with TPMS
Please 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 the valves.
If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire, this tire does not have a TPMS sensor.
If wheels without TPMS sensors are mounted on the vehicle, TIRE PRESS SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be
displayed each time the vehicle is driven above 25 mph (40 km/h) for 10 minutes or more.
Once TPMS sensors are properly installed, the warning message should not reappear.
Volvo recommends that TPMS sensors be fitted on all wheels used on the vehicle. Volvo does not recommend
moving sensors back and forth between sets of wheels.
CAUTION!
When inflating tires with TPMS valves, press the pump's mouthpiece straight onto the valve to help avoid bending or
otherwise damaging the valve.
