* Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
462 The 12-volt sockets are located in the front tun- nel console, on the rear side of the center con- sole in the rear seat and in the cargo area

Accessing the tire sealing systemThe tire sealing system is stowed under the floor of the cargo area. To access it:
1. Lift the floor hatch in the cargo area.
2. Lift out the tire sealing system.
NOTE
• The tire sealing system is only intended to seal holes on the tire

WARNING
Please keep the following points in mind when using the tire sealing system:
• The sealing compound bottle (no. 8 in the illustration) contains 1) rubber latex, natu-ral and 2) ethanediol. These substancesare harmful if swallowed.
• The contents of this bottle may causeallergic skin reactions or otherwise bepotentially harmful to the respiratory tract,the skin, the central nervous system, andthe eyes.
Precautions: • Keep out of reach of children.
• Do not ingest the contents.
• Avoid prolonged or repeated contact with the skin.
• Wash thoroughly after handling.
First aid: • Skin: Wash affected areas of skin with soap and water. Get medical attention ifsymptoms occur.
• Eyes: Flush with plenty of water for least15 minutes, occasionally lifting the upperand lower eyelids. Get medical attention ifsymptoms occur.
• Inhalation: Move the exposed person tofresh air. If irritation persists, get medicalattention.
•
Ingestion: Do
NOT induce vomiting
unless directed to do so by medical per- sonnel. Get medical attention.
• Disposal: Dispose of this material and itscontainer to a hazardous or special wastecollection point.

Connecting
1. Activate the vehicle's hazard warning flashersif the tire sealing system is to be used in an area with traffic. If the flat tire was caused by a nail, etc., do not remove it from the tire. It will help to sealthe hole.
2. Peel off the speed limit sticker and affix it to the steering wheel hub where it will beclearly visible to the driver. The vehicle shouldnot be driven faster than 50 mph (80 km/h)while using a tire that has been temporarilyrepaired with the tire sealing system.
3. Ensure that the on/off switch is in position 0
and take out the electrical wire and hose.
NOTE
Do not break the seal on the bottle. This occurs automatically when the bottle isscrewed into the holder.
WARNING
Contact with the sealing compound may cause skin irritation. If contact occurs, washthe affected area immediately with soap andwater.
4. Unscrew the orange cover over the bottle holder on the compressor and unscrew the cap on the bottle of sealing compound.
5. Screw the bottle into the bottle holder as far as possible.
WARNING
The bottle is equipped with a catch to keep it securely in place and help prevent sealingcompound leakage. Once in place, the bottlecannot be unscrewed. This must be done by atrained and qualified Volvo service technician. 6. Be sure the air release valve on the com-
pressor's hose is completely closed. Remove the valve cap from the tire

ice technician to have the bottle removed and properly disposed of.
WARNING
If heavy vibrations, unsteady steering behavior, or noises should occur while driving, reducespeed and park the vehicle in a safe place.Recheck the tire for bumps, cracks, or othervisible damage, and recheck its inflation pres-sure. If the pressure is below 19 psi (1.3 bar),do not continue driving. Have the vehicletowed to a trained and qualified Volvo servicetechnician.
15. Rechecking the pressure Reconnect the tire sealing system's hose to the tire's inflation valve. 16. Without starting the compressor, check the
inflation pressure on the air pressure gauge. •If the pressure is under 19 psi (1.3 bar), the puncture has not been sealed suffi-ciently and the vehicle should not bedriven. Have the vehicle towed to a trainedand qualified Volvo service technician.
• If the pressure is more than 19 psi(1.3 bar), connect the electrical wire to a12-volt socket, start the compressor andinflate the tire to the correct pressure(see the tire pressure decal on the on thedriver's side B-pillar (the structural mem-ber at the side of the vehicle, at the rearof the driver's door opening). Use the airrelease valve to release some air from thetire if necessary.
17. Switch off the compressor and disconnect the electrical wire from the 12-volt socket. Unscrew the hose from the tire

WARNING
•After using the tire sealing system, the vehicle should not be driven farther thanapproximately 120 miles (200 km).
• Have the tire inspected by a trained andqualified Volvo service technician as soonas possible to determine if it can be per-manently repaired or must be replaced.
• The vehicle should not be driven fasterthan 50 mph (80 km/h) while using a tirethat has been temporarily repaired withthe tire sealing system.
• After using the tire sealing system, drivecarefully and avoid abrupt steeringmaneuvers and sudden stops.

Inflating a tire with the tire sealing system compressor
The compressor can be used to inflate a tire.
1. The compressor should be switched off. Ensure that the on/off switch is in position 0.
Take out the electrical wire and hose.
2. Be sure the air release valve on the com- pressor's hose is completely closed. Remove the valve cap from the tire

4686. Turn off the compressor (press the on/off
switch to position 0) when the correct infla-
tion pressure has been reached.
CAUTION
• After inflating the tires, always reinstall the valve cap to help avoid damage to thevalve from dirt, gravel, etc.
• Use plastic valve caps only. Metal capscould corrode and become difficult toremove.
7. Disconnect the electrical wire from the 12-
volt socket.

Refilling coolant
Coolant helps keep the gasoline engine at the proper operating temperature. The heat transfer-red from the engine to the coolant can be usedto warm the passenger compartment.
When refilling coolant, follow the instructions on the package and use the recommended amountof coolant. Never fill the cooling system withwater only; this could lead to freezing, corrosionand engine damage.
WARNING
If the engine has been running, the coolant will be very hot. Allow the engine to coolbefore opening the coolant expansion tank. Ifthis is not possible, open the cap very slowlyto allow pressure to dissipate.
Lift the rubber strip by pressing it inward in the engine compartment.
Remove the plastic cover by folding out the catch and lifting the cover upward.
Remove the expansion tank and add coolant. The level should be between the MIN and
MAX marks on the tank.
Put the other components back in place in the reverse order.
