Stability system
Dynamic Stability Traction Control (DSTC)
The stability system consists of a number of functions designed help red\
uce wheel spin, counteract skidding, and to
generally help improve directional stability.
NOTE: A pulsating sound will be audible when the system is actively operating\
and is normal.
Traction control (TC)
This function is designed to help reduce wheel spin by transferring powe\
r from a drive wheel that begins to lose traction to
the wheel on the opposite side of the vehicle (on the same axle).
TC is most active at low speeds.
This is one of DSTC's permanent functions and cannot be switched off.
Spin control (SC)
The spin control function is designed to help prevent the drive wheels f\
rom spinning while the vehicle is accelerating.
Under certain circumstances, such as when driving with snow chains, or d\
riving in deep snow or loose sand, it may be
advisable to temporarily switch off this function for maximum tractive f\
orce.
Temporarily switching off Spin control
- Turn the thumbwheel (1) on the left-side steering wheel lever until \
the DSTC menu is displayed.
- Hold down the RESET button (2) to toggle between DSTC SPIN CONTROL O\
N or OFF.
NOTE:
l The message DSTC SPIN CONTROL OFF indicates that the stability system's \
spin control function has temporarily
been switched off.
l The stability control indicator light will illuminate and remain on until spin control has been reactivated.
l The spin control function is automatically enabled each time the engine \
is started.
l DSTC ON indicates that all system functions are active.
Active Yaw Control (AYC)
This function helps maintain directional stability, for example when cor\
nering, by braking one or more of the wheels if the
vehicle shows a tendency to skid or slide laterally.
This is one of DSTC's permanent functions and cannot be switched off

- 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 install\
ed TPMS wheels/ tires on the
vehicle:
l Only the factory-mounted wheels are equipped with TPMS sensors in the va\
lves.
l If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire, this tire does n\
ot have a TPMS sensor.
l If wheels without TPMS sensors are mounted on the vehicle, TIRE PRESS SY\
ST SERVICE
REQUIRED will be displayed each time the vehicle is driven above 25 mph \
(40 km/h) for 10 minutes or
more.
l Once TPMS sensors are properly installed, the warning message should not\
reappear.
l Volvo recommends that TPMS sensors be fitted on all wheels used on the v\
ehicle. 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 strai\
ght onto the valve to help
avoid bending or otherwise damaging the valve.
Adjusting (recalibrating) TPMS
1
TPMS can be adjusted, or recalibrated, in order to help adapt the system\
to different inflation pressures,
for example when transporting heavy loads. To do so:
- Switch off the engine.
- Inflate the tires to the desired pressure.
- Turn the ignition key to position I or II.
- Turn the thumbwheel on the left steering wheel lever until the text TI\
RE PRESSURE CALIBRATION
is displayed.
- Press in and hold the Reset button (see the illustration on
page 50) until TIRE PRESSURE
CALIBRATED is displayed. This completes the procedure.
NOTE: TPMS should be recalibrated each time tire inflation pressure is change\
