WHEELS AND TYRES

522

Tyres

Amongst other things, the function of the tyres is
to carry load, provide grip on the road surface,
dampen vibration and protect the wheel from
wear.

The tyres greatly affect the car's driving characte-
ristics. The type of tyre, dimensions, tyre pressure
and speed rating are important for how the car
performs.

Recommended tyres

On 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 this
marking 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 friction
capacity/characteristics gradually deteriorate. For
this reason, aim to get as fresh tyres as possible
when 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 of
manufacture. This is the tyre's DOT marking
(Department of Transportation), and this is stated
with four digits, for example 0717. The tyre in the
figure was manufactured in week 07 of 2017.

Tyre age

All tyres older than 6 years old should be
checked by an expert even if they seem undam-
aged. Tyres age and decompose, even if they are
hardly ever or never used. The function can
therefore be affected. This applies to all tyres that

are stored for future use. Examples of external
signs which indicate that the tyre is unsuitable for
use are cracks or discoloration.

Wear and maintenance

Correct 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 front
and 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 in
wear (> 1 mm difference in tread depth) between
tyres have already occurred, then the least worn
tyres must always be fitted on the rear. Under-
steer is normally easier to correct than oversteer,
and leads to the car continuing forwards in a
straight line rather than having the rear end skid-
ding to one side, resulting in possible complete
loss of control over the car. This is why it is
important for the rear wheels never to lose grip
before the front wheels.

WARNING

A damaged tyre may lead to loss of control

over the car.

Tyres' rotation direction

Tyres with a tread pattern which are designed to
only turn in one direction have the direction of
rotation marked with an arrow.

The arrow shows the tyre's direction of rotation.

The tyre must always rotate in the same direction
throughout its lifespan. Tyres should only be
switched between front and rear positions, never
between left and right-hand sides, or vice versa. If
the tyres are fitted incorrectly, the car's braking
characteristics and capacity to force rain and
slush out of the way are adversely affected. Tyres
with the greatest tread depth should always be
fitted to the rear of the car (to decrease the risk
of skidding).

NOTE

Make sure that both pairs of wheels have the
same type and dimension, and also the same
make.

Tread wear indicators on the tyres

Tread wear indicators show the status of the
tyre's tread depth.

A tread wear indicator is a narrow elevation
across the longitudinal grooves of the tyre's tread
pattern. On the side of the tyre are the letters
TWI (Tread Wear Indicator). When the tyre's tread
depth is down to 1.6 mm (1/16"), the tread will
be level in height with the tread wear indicators.
Change to new tyres as soon as possible.
Remember that tyres with little tread depth pro-
vide very poor grip in rain and snow.

Tyres (p. 522)

Checking the tyre pressures

Tyres with the correct air pressure increase driv-
ing safety, save fuel and extend the service life of
the tyres.

Tyre pressure decreases over time, this is a natu-
ral phenomenon. Tyre pressure also varies
depending on ambient temperature. Inadequate
tyre pressure increases fuel consumption, short-
ens tyre lifespan and impairs the car's driving
characteristics. Driving on tyres with tyre pressure
that is too low could result in the tyres overheat-
ing and being damaged. Tyre pressure affects
travelling comfort, road noise and driving charac-
teristics.

Recommended tyre pressure

The tyre pressure label on the driver's side door
pillar (between frame and rear door) shows which

pressures the tyres should have at different loads
and speed conditions.

Improved fuel economy with ECO pressure

For a light load (max. 3 people) and a speed of
up to 160 km/h (100 mph), the ECO pressures
can be chosen for optimum fuel economy. How-
ever, the lower comfort pressures are recom-
mended instead if optimum noise and travelling
comfort are desired.

Checking the air pressure

1. Check the tyre pressures monthly. Carry out

the check on cold tyres, which means that
the tyres should have the same temperature
as the outside temperature. After several few
kilometres of driving, the tyres warm up and
the pressure increases.

2. If necessary, inflate so that the air pressure

corresponds with the approved tyre pressure
in accordance with the tyre pressure label.

NOTE

After a tyre has been inflated, always refit
the dust cap in order to avoid damage to
the valve from gravel, dirt, etc.

Only use plastic dust caps. Metal dust
caps can rust and become difficult to
unscrew.

Tyre monitoring

*

The tyre monitoring system, Indirect Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System (ITPMS), gives a
warning with an indicator symbol in the driver
display when the pressure in one or more of the
car's tyres is too low.

If the symbol first flashes for approximately one
minute and then changes to a constant glow, it
may indicate that the system cannot detect or
warn of low tyre pressure as intended.

Symbol

Specification

The symbol illuminates in the
event of low tyre pressure.

The symbol flashes for approxi-
mately one minute and then
changes over to illuminating
with a constant glow in the
event of a fault in the ITPMS
system.

System description

ITPMS measures differences in rotation speed
between the different wheels via the ABS system
in order to be able to determine whether they
have the correct tyre pressure. If the tyre pres-
sure is too low, the tyre's diameter is changed
and, as a result, so is its rotation speed. By com-
paring the tyres with each other the system can
determine whether one or more tyres have pres-
sure that is too low.

When the tyre pressure is too low, the indicator
symbol for low tyre pressure is illuminated in the
display and a message is shown, see also the
heading "Message in the driver display" below.

General information on the tyre monitoring
system

In the information below, the tyre monitoring sys-
tem is referred to generically as TPMS.

Each tyre, including the spare tyre

*, should be

checked once a month. When checking, the tyre
should be cold and have the air pressure recom-
mended by the car manufacturer specified on the
tyre pressure label or in the tyre pressure table. If
the car has tyres of a different size than that rec-
ommended by the manufacturer, find out what
the correct air pressure level is for these.

As an extra safety feature, the car is equipped
with a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS),
which shows when the air pressure in one or
more tyres is too low. When the indicator symbol
for low air pressure is lit, stop and check the tyres
as soon as possible and inflate to the correct air
pressure.

Driving with tyres that have tyre pressure that is
too low may cause the tyre to overheat, which
can cause a puncture. Low tyre pressure also
reduces fuel efficiency as well as tyre service life,
and can affect car handling and stopping ability.
Note that TPMS does not replace regular tyre
maintenance. It is the driver's responsibility to
maintain correct tyre pressure, even if the limit for
low tyre pressure has not been reached so that
the indicator symbol illuminates.

The car is also equipped with a TPMS system
fault indicator, which indicates when the system

is not functioning correctly. The TPMS system
fault indicator is combined with the indicator sym-
bol for low tyre pressure. When the system
detects a fault, the symbol in the driver display
will flash for about one minute and then remain
illuminated. This procedure will be repeated when
the car is started until the fault has been rectified.
When the symbol is illuminated, the system's abil-
ity to detect or warn of low tyre pressure may be
affected.

A TPMS system fault can occur for several rea-
sons, such as after changing to a spare tyre, or
changing tyres or wheels that prevent TPMS from
functioning correctly.

Always check the indicator symbol for TPMS
after changing one or more tyres in order to
ensure the new tyre or wheel is working correctly
with TPMS.

Messages in the driver display

The following messages may be shown when the
indicator symbol is illuminated:

Tyre pressure low

 

Check tyres, calibrate

after fill

Tyre pressure system

 

Temporarily

unavailable

Service required

.

If the system cannot determine which tyre has
low pressure, all four tyres will be indicated in the
centre display.

To bear in mind

Always calibrate the system after a wheel
change or tyre pressure adjustment. See the
tyre pressure label on the driver's side door
pillar for Volvo's recommended tyre pres-
sures.

The system does not replace normal tyre
maintenance.

There is no option to deactivate ITPMS.

Rectifying low tyre pressure with

tyre monitoring

*

When the tyre monitoring system, Indirect Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System (ITPMS), gives a
warning, the tyre pressure in one or more of the
car's tyres is too low.

Check and rectify the tyre pressure
when the indicator symbol for ITPMS is
illuminated and the message 

Tyre

pressure low

 is shown. Calibrate

ITPMS after the tyre pressure has been adjusted.

1. Check the tyre pressure in all four tyres with

a tyre pressure gauge.

2. Inflate the tyres to the correct pressure as

indicated on the tyre pressure label on the
door pillar on the driver's side.

3. Recalibrate the ITPMS system, see the sec-

tion "Calibrating tyre monitoring".

4. Drive the car at a speed above 35 km/h

(22 mph).

Note that the ITPMS symbol does not extin-
guish until the low tyre pressure has been
rectified and new calibration has been per-
formed.

NOTE

To avoid incorrect tyre pressure, the pressure
should be checked on cold tyres. "Cold tyres"
means the tyres are the same temperature as
the ambient temperature (approx. 3 hours
after the car has been driven). After a few kil-
ometres of driving, the tyres warm up and the
pressure increases.

NOTE

After a tyre has been inflated, always refit
the dust cap in order to avoid damage to
the valve from gravel, dirt, etc.

Only use plastic dust caps. Metal dust
caps can rust and become difficult to
unscrew.

WARNING

Incorrect tyre pressure may lead to tyre
failure, which could result in the driver
losing control of the car.

The system cannot indicate sudden tyre
damage in advance.

Calibrating tyre monitoring

*

In order for the Indirect Tyre Pressure Monitoring
System (ITPMS) to work correctly, a reference
value for the tyre pressure must be determined.
This must be performed each time the tyres are
changed 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 tyre
pressure should be adjusted in accordance with
Volvo's recommended tyre pressure values. Fol-
lowing which, the system must be recalibrated.

1. Switch off the car.

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 car.

4. Open the 

Car status

 app in the app view.

5. Press 

TPMS

.

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 when the car is
driven at a speed above 35 km/h (22 mph).
Calibration is interrupted temporarily if the
engine is switched off, but is resumed auto-
matically in the background when the car is
driven again.
> When sufficient data has been collected

to enable the system to detect low tyre
pressure, the tyres in the centre display
change colour from grey to green. The
system 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 tyre
pressure is adjusted. New reference values
must be stored for the system to work cor-
rectly.

Emergency puncture repair kit

The emergency puncture repair kit, Temporary
Mobility Kit (TMK), is used to seal a puncture as
well as to check and adjust the air pressure.

The puncture repair kit consists of a compressor
and a bottle with sealing fluid. The sealing works
as a temporary repair. The sealing fluid effectively
seals tyres punctured in the tread.

The puncture repair kit has limited capacity to
seal tyres which have punctures in the wall. Do
not use the puncture repair kit on tyres that have
larger slits, cracks or similar damage.

NOTE

The emergency puncture repair kit is only
intended for sealing tyres with a puncture in
the tread.

NOTE

The compressor for temporary emergency
puncture repair has been tested and
approved by Volvo.

Location

The puncture repair kit is located in the foam
block under the floor in the cargo area.

Sealing fluid bottle

The bottle of sealing fluid must be replaced if the
bottle's expiry date has passed (see the decal on
the bottle). Treat the old bottle as environmentally
hazardous waste.

The sealing fluid bottle must be replaced after
use. Volvo recommends that the replacement is
performed by an authorised Volvo workshop.

WARNING

The bottle with sealing fluid 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 an
eye must be rinsed away immediately with
eye wash fluid or with plenty of water. If
the discomfort persists then the eye
should be examined by a doctor.

1. Set up the warning triangle and activate the

hazard warning lights if a tyre is being sealed
in a trafficked location.

If the puncture was caused by a nail or simi-
lar, allow this to remain in the tyre. It helps to
seal the hole.

2. Detach the decal for maximum permitted

speed that is affixed on one side of the com-
pressor. Affix it visibly on the windscreen as a
reminder to observe the speed limit. You
should not drive faster than 80 km/h
(50 mph) after the emergency tyre repair kit
has been used.

3. Check that the switch is in position 0 (Off),

and locate the electrical cable and the air
hose.

4. Unscrew the orange-coloured cap from the

compressor, and unscrew the cork from the
sealing fluid bottle.

NOTE

Do not break the bottle's seal before use. The
seal is broken automatically when the bottle is
screwed in.

equipped with a reverse catch to prevent
sealant leakage. When the bottle is
screwed in it cannot be unscrewed from
the bottle holder again. Bottle removal
must be performed at a workshop, Volvo
recommends an authorised Volvo work-
shop.

WARNING

In the event of skin contact with the seal-
ing fluid, it must be washed off immediately
with soap and plenty of water.

Sealing fluid that makes contact with an
eye must be rinsed away immediately with
eye wash fluid or with plenty of water. If the
discomfort persists then the eye should be
examined by a doctor.

WARNING

Do not unscrew the bottle, it is equipped with

a reverse catch to prevent leakage.

6. Unscrew the tyre's dust cap.

Check that the pressure reducing valve on
the air hose is fully screwed on, and screw in
the air hose's valve connection to the bottom
of the tyre valve's thread.

7. Connect the electrical cable to the closest

12 V socket and start the car.

NOTE

Make sure that none of the other 12 V sock-
ets is in use when the compressor is operat-
ing.

WARNING

Do not leave children in the car without

supervision when the engine is running.

8. Start the compressor by flicking the switch to

position I (On).

WARNING

Never stand next to the tyre when the com-

pressor is running. If cracks or unevenness

arise then the compressor must be switched

off immediately. The journey should not be

continued. Call roadside assistance for recov-

ery to a tyre centre. Volvo recommends an

authorised tyre centre.

NOTE

When the compressor starts, the pressure
can increase up to 6 bar (88 psi) but the
pressure drops after approximately
30 seconds.

9. Inflate the tyre for 7 minutes.

IMPORTANT

The compressor must not be operated for
longer than 10 minutes - risk of overheating.

10. Switch off the compressor to check the pres-

sure on the pressure gauge. Minimum pres-
sure is 1.8 bar (22 psi) and maximum is
3.5 bar (51 psi). Release air using the pres-
sure reducing valve if the tyre pressure is too
high.

WARNING

If the pressure is below 1.8 bar (22 psi) then

the hole in the tyre is too big. The journey

should not be continued. Call roadside assis-

tance for recovery to a tyre centre. Volvo rec-

ommends an authorised tyre centre.

11. Switch off the compressor and detach the

electrical cable.

12. Unscrew the air hose from the tyre valve and

refit the dust cap on the tyre.

13. Fit the protective cap on the air hose in order

to avoid leakage of the remaining sealing
fluid. Place the equipment in the cargo area.

14. As soon as possible, drive at least 3 km

(2 miles) at a maximum speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph) so that the sealing fluid can seal
the tyre, and then perform a follow-up check.

NOTE

Sealant will spurt out of the puncture during
the first few rotations of the tyre.

WARNING

Make sure that nobody is standing near the

car and gets the sealing fluid splashed onto

them when the car is driven away. The dis-

tance should be at least 2 metres (7 feet).

15. Follow-up inspection

Connect the air hose on the tyre valve and
screw in the valve connection to the bottom
of the tyre valve's thread. The compressor
must be switched off.

16. Read the tyre pressure on the pressure

gauge.

If it is below 1.3 bar (19 psi) then the tyre
is insufficiently sealed. The journey should
not be continued. Call roadside assistance
for recovery.

If the tyre pressure is higher than 1.3 bar
(19 psi), the tyre must be inflated to the
pressure specified in accordance with the
tyre pressure label on the driver's side
door pillar (1 bar = 100 kPa). Release air
using the pressure reducing valve if the
tyre pressure is too high.

17. If the tyre needs to be inflated:

1. Connect the electrical cable to the closest

12 V socket and start the car.

2. Start the compressor and inflate the tyre

to the pressure specified in accordance
with the tyre pressure label.

3. Switch off the compressor.

18. Remove the tyre sealing equipment.

Fit the protective cap on the air hose in order
to avoid leakage of the remaining sealing
fluid.

WARNING

Do not unscrew the bottle, it is equipped with

a reverse catch to prevent leakage.

19. Refit the dust cap on the tyre.

NOTE

After a tyre has been inflated, always refit
the dust cap in order to avoid damage to
the valve from gravel, dirt, etc.

Only use plastic dust caps. Metal dust
caps can rust and become difficult to
unscrew.

NOTE

The sealing fluid bottle and the hose must be
replaced after use. Volvo recommends that
this replacement is performed by an author-
ised Volvo workshop.

WARNING

Check the tyre pressure regularly.

Volvo recommends that the car is driven to the
nearest authorised Volvo workshop for the
replacement/repair of the damaged tyre. Advise
the workshop that the tyre contains sealing fluid.

WARNING

You should not drive faster than 80 km/h
(50 mph) after the emergency tyre repair
kit has been used.

Maximum mileage with tyres containing
sealing fluid is 200 km (120 miles).

Volvo recommends visiting an authorised
Volvo workshop as soon as possible for
inspection of the sealed tyre. The staff
there can determine whether or not the
tyre can be repaired or if it needs to be
replaced.
