2008 VOLVO S80 lock

CAUTION
The compressor should not be used for more than 10 minutes at a time to avoid overheating.
WARNING
If the pressure remains below 22 psi (1.8 bar) after approximately seven minutes, turn off the compressor. In this
case, the hole is too large to be sealed and the vehicle should not be driven.
12. Switch off the compressor and disconnect the electrical wire from the 12-volt socket.
13. Unscrew the hose from the tire's inflation valve and reinstall the valve cap.
14. Immediately drive the vehicle for approximately 2 miles (3 km) at a maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) to
distribute the sealing compound in the tire.
NOTE
Safely stow the tire sealing system in a convenient place as it will soon be used again to check the tire's inflation
pressure.
The empty bottle of sealing compound cannot be removed from the bottle holder. Consult a trained and qualified
Volvo service technician to have the bottle removed and properly disposed of.
WARNING
If heavy vibrations, unsteady steering behavior, or noises should occur while driving, reduce speed and park the
vehicle in a safe place. Recheck the tire for bumps, cracks, or other visible damage, and recheck its inflation
pressure. If the pressure is below 19 psi (1.3 bar), do not continue driving. Have the vehicle towed to a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician.

Stage 2: Checking inflation pressure
1. Connect the tire sealing system as described in stage 1.
2. Refer to the tables on pages 240 and 241
for the correct tire inflation pressure. If the tire needs to be inflated, start
the tire sealing system's compressor. If necessary, release air from the tire by turning the air release knob
counterclockwise.
CAUTION
The compressor should not be used for more than 10 minutes at a time to avoid overheating.
WARNING
If you interrupt your trip for more than 1 hour, check the inflation pressure in the damaged tire again before
continuing.

Replacing the sealing compound container
The sealing compound container must be replaced if:
the tire sealing system has been used to repair a tire
the container's expiration date has passed (see the date on decal).
NOTE
After use, the sealing compound bottle, the hose, and certain other system components must be replaced. Please
consult your Volvo retailer for replacement parts.
If the sealing compound bottle's expiration date has passed, please take it to a Volvo retailer or a recycling station
that can properly dispose of harmful substances.

Vehicle care
Washing the car
WARNING
Be sure that the compressor is not connected to a 12-volt socket while replacing the container.
The following points should be kept in mind when washing and cleaning the car:
The car should be washed at regular intervals since dirt, dust, insects and tar spots adhere to the paint and may cause
damage. To help prevent corrosion, it is particularly important to wash the car frequently in the wintertime.
Avoid washing your car in direct sunlight. Doing so may cause detergents and wax to dry out and become abrasive.
To avoid scratching, use lukewarm water to soften the dirt before you wash with a soft sponge, and plenty of sudsy
water.
Bird droppings : Remove from paintwork as soon as possible. Otherwise the finish may be permanently damaged.
A detergent can be used to facilitate the softening of dirt and oil.
A water-soluble grease solvent may be used in cases of sticky dirt. However, use a wash place equipped with a
drainage separator.
Dry the car with a clean chamois and remember to clean the drain holes in the doors and rocker panels.
Tar spots can be removed with kerosene or tar remover after the car has been washed.
A stiff-bristle brush and lukewarm soapy water can be used to clean the wiper blades. Frequent cleaning of the
windshield and wiper blades improves visibility considerably and also helps prolong the service life of the wiper
blades.
Wash off the dirt from the underside (wheel housings, fenders, etc).
In areas of high industrial fallout, more frequent washing is recommended.
After cleaning the engine, the spark plug wells should be inspected for water and blown dry if necessary.
NOTE
When washing the car, remember to remove dirt from the drain holes in the doors and sills.
CAUTION
During high pressure washing, the spray mouthpiece must never be closer to the vehicle than 13" (30 cm). Do not
spray into the locks.
