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 to fresh 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.
NOTE
Do not break the seal on the bottle. This occurs automatically when the bottle isscrewed into the holder.

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 orthe rim, the tire cannot be repaired. Thevehicle should not be driven if this occurs.Contact a towing service, use the Volvo OnCall feature in your vehicle or contact VolvoRoadside Assistance if applicable.
NOTE
The air pressure gauge will temporarily show an increase in pressure to approximately88 psi (6 bar) while the sealing compound isbeing pumped into the tire. The pressureshould return to a normal level after approxi-mately 30 seconds.
9. Within seven minutes, inflate the tire to
between 22—44 psi (1.8—3.0 bar). Switch off the compressor briefly to get a clearreading from the pressure gauge.
CAUTION
The compressor should not be used for more than 10 minutes at a time to avoid overheat-ing.
WARNING
If the pressure remains below 22 psi (1.8 bar) after approximately seven minutes, turn offthe compressor. In this case, the hole is toolarge to be sealed and the vehicle should notbe driven.
10. Switch off the compressor and disconnect the electrical wire from the 12-volt socket.
11. Unscrew the hose from the tire's inflation valve and put the cover on the hose back into place to help prevent seepage of residualsealing compound in the hose. Reinstall thevalve cap.
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.
12. Immediately drive the vehicle for approxi-
mately 2 miles (3 km) at a maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) to distribute the seal-ing compound in the tire.
CAUTION
If your vehicle is equipped with the Tire Pres- sure Monitoring System (TPMS), the use ofthe sealing compound may lead to incorrecttire pressure readings or in rare cases, dam-age to the tire pressure sensor. Use the tiresealing system to check and adjust the dam-aged tire's inflation pressure.
NOTE
• Safely stow the tire sealing system in a convenient place as it will soon be usedagain to check the tire

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.
Tire sealing system – checking inflation pressure The tire sealing system can also be used to check the tires' inflation pressure.
Stage 2: Checking inflation pressure1. Reconnect the tire sealing system's hose to
the tire's inflation valve as described in stage
1 , see Tire sealing system * – sealing a hole
(p. 327).
2. Refer to the inflation pressure table in this chapter for the correct inflation pressure. If the tire needs to be inflated, start the tiresealing system

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING
333
Maintenance – owner maintenance
Periodic maintenance requirements and intervals are described in your vehicle's Warranty andService Records Information booklet. The following points can be carried out between the normally scheduled maintenance services.
Owner maintenance
Each time the car is refueled:
• Check the engine oil level.
• Clean the windshield, windshield wipers, headlights, and taillights.
Monthly:
• Check cold tire pressure in all tires. Inspect the tires for wear.
• Check that engine coolant and other fluidlevels are between the indicated "min" and"max" markings.
• Clean interior glass surfaces with a glasscleaner and soft paper towels.
• Wipe driver information displays with a softcloth.
• Visually inspect battery terminals for corro-sion. Corrosion may indicate a loose terminalconnector, or a battery near the end of itsuseful service life. Consult your Volvo retailerfor additional information.
As needed:
Wash the car, including the undercarriage, to reduce wear that can be caused by a buildup of dirt, and corrosion that can be caused by salt res-idues. Clean leaves and twigs from air intake vents at the base of the windshield, and from other placeswhere they may collect.
NOTE
Complete service information for qualified technicians is available online for purchase orsubscription at www.volvotechinfo.com.
