Tyre pressure monitoring TPMS
The Tyre Pressure Monitoring System warns
the driver when the pressure is too low in one
or more of the car’s tyres. It uses sensors
located inside the air valve in each wheel.
When the car is driven at approximately
40 km/h the system detects the tyre pres-
sure. If the pressure is too low then a warning
lamp on the instrument panel illuminates and
a message is shown in the display.
Always check the system after changing a
wheel in order to ensure that replacement
wheels work with the system.
For information on correct tyre pressure, see
page 159 –160.
The system does not replace normal tyre
maintenance.
Adjusting tyre pressure monitoring
Tyre pressure monitoring can be adjusted in
order to follow Volvo’s tyre pressure recom-
mendations, when driving with a heavy load
for example.
Inflate the tyres to the required pressure.
Select key position I or II.
Turn the thumbwheel on the left-hand
stalk switch until the text
TYRE
PRESSURE CALIBRATION is shown in
the display.
–Press and hold the RESET button until the
text TYRE PRESSURE CALIBRATED is
shown.
Rectifying low tyre pressure
When the message LOW TYRE PRESS.
CHECK TYRES
is shown in the display:
Check the tyre pressure in all four tyres.
Inflate the tyre(s) to the correct pressure.
Drive the car for at least 1 minute in total
at a minimum of 40 km/h and check that
the message disappears.
Deactivating tyre pressure monitoring
Key position I or II.
Turn the thumbwheel on the left-hand
stalk switch until the text
TYRE PRESS.
SYST ON is shown in the display.
Press and hold the RESET button until the
text
TYRE PRESS. SYST OFF is shown.
To reactivate the system repeat the same
steps 1–3, so that
TYRE PRESS. SYST ON is
shown in the display.
Recommendations
Only factory fitted wheels are equipped with
TPMS sensors in the valves.
The temporary spare wheel does not have
this sensor.
If wheels without TPMS sensors are used
then
TYRE PRESS. SYST SERVICE
REQUIRED will be shown every time the
car is driven faster than 40 km/h for more
than 10 minutes.
Volvo recommends that TPMS sensors
are fitted to all wheels on the car (summer
and winter wheels).
Volvo recommends that sensors are not
moved between different wheels.
IMPORTANT
If a fault should arise in the tyre pressure
system a warning lamp on the instrument
panel will illuminate. The message
TYRE
PRESS. SYST SERVICE REQUIRED
will
be shown. This can be for various reasons,
e.g. fitting a wheel not equipped with a sen-
sor adapted for Volvo’s tyre pressure moni-
toring system.
NOTE
The engine must not be running.
