Tyre pressure monitoring (TPMS) (Tyre
Pressure Monitoring System)* warns the
driver when the pressure is too low in one or
more of the car's tyres.
TPMS can be adjusted in order to follow Vol-
vo's tyre pressure recommendations (p. 323),
such as when driving with a heavy load, for
example.
NOTE
The car must be stationary when calibra-
tion is started.
Settings are made using the centre console's
controls, see MY CAR (p. 116).
1. Inflate the tyres to the desired pressure in
accordance with the tyre pressure label
on the driver's side door pillar (between
front and rear doors).
2. Start the engine.
3. Select the menu system MY CAR to open
the menus for tyre pressure.
4.
Select
Calibrate tyre pressure and
press OK.
5. Drive for at least 10 minutes at a speed of
at least 30 km/h.
> Calibration is performed automatically
following initialisation by the driver.
The system provides no confirmation
when the calibration is complete.
The new reference values apply until steps
1-5 are carried out again.
