Contact with the sealing compound may cause skin irritation. If contact occurs, wash the affected area immediately
with soap and water.
5. Unscrew the orange cover over the bottle holder and unscrew the cap on the bottle of sealing compound.
NOTE
Do not break the seal on the bottle. This occurs automatically when the bottle is screwed into the holder.
6. Screw the bottle into the bottle holder.
WARNING
The bottle is equipped with a catch to keep it securely in place and help prevent sealing compound leakage. Once in
place, the bottle cannot be unscrewed. This must be done by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
7. Remove the valve cap from the tire's inflation valve and screw the tire sealing system's hose connector onto the
valve as tightly as possible by hand.

8. Connect the electrical wire to the nearest 12-volt socket in the vehicle.
9. Start the vehicle's engine.
WARNING
The vehicle's engine should be running when the tire sealing system is used to avoid battery drain. Therefore, be sure
the vehicle is parked in a well ventilated place, or outdoors, before using the system.
10. Start the tire sealing system's compressor by pressing the on/off switch to position I .
WARNING
Never stand next to the tire being inflated when the compressor is in operation.
If cracks, bubbles, etc. form on the tire, switch off the compressor immediately.
If there is visible damage to the sidewall or the rim, the tire cannot be repaired. The vehicle should not be driven if
this occurs. Contact a towing service or Volvo On Call Roadside Assistance if applicable.
NOTE
The air pressure gauge will temporarily show an increase in pressure to approximately 88 psi (6 bar) while the
sealing compound is being pumped into the tire. The pressure should return to a normal level after approximately 30
seconds.
11. Within seven minutes, inflate the tire to between 22-44 psi (1.8-3.0 bar). Switch off the compressor briefly to get a
clear reading from the pressure gauge.

VOLVO S80 2008 Owners Manual CAUTION
The compressor should not be used for more than 10 minutes at a time to avoid overheating.
WARNING

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.
