3.
Make sure the switch is in the 0 (Off) posi-
tion and take out the electric cable and the hose.
4. Unscrew the orange cover on the compres- sor and unscrew the cap on the sealing com-pound bottle.
5. Screw the bottle onto the bottle holder as far as possible. The bottle and the bottle holder are equip- ped with catches to help prevent the sealingcompound from leaking. Once the bottle isscrewed into place into the bottle holder, itcannot be unscrewed. The bottle can only beremoved by a workshop. Volvo recommendsan authorized Volvo workshop.
WARNING
Do not unscrew the bottle. It is equipped with a catch to prevent leakage.
6. Unscrew the tire's valve cap and screw the hose's valve connector as far as possible onto the valve. Be sure the air release valve on the com- pressor's hose is completely closed. 7. Connect the electrical cable to the nearest
12 V outlet and start the vehicle.
NOTE
Make sure that none of the vehicle's other 12 V sockets are used while the compressoris running.
WARNING
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle while the engine is running. 8. Start the compressor by moving the switch to
the I (On) position.
WARNING
Never stand next to a tire being inflated with the compressor. If cracks, bulges, etc. form onthe tire, switch off the compressor immedi-ately. The vehicle should not be driven. Callroadside assistance to have the vehicle towedto a workshop for inspection/replacement ofthe tire. Volvo recommends an authorizedworkshop.
NOTE
When the compressor first starts, air pressure may temporarily increase up to 6 bar (88 psi)but should decrease again after approxi-mately 30 seconds.
9. Inflate the tire for 7 minutes.
CAUTION
To help avoid overheating, the compressor should never be used for more than10 minutes at a time.

54810. Switch off the compressor and check the
inflation pressure using the air pressure gauge. The inflation pressure should bebetween 1.8 bar (22 psi) and 3.5 bar(51 psi). If the inflation pressure is too high,use the air release valve to release air.
WARNING
If the bottle is not removed in the correct order, sealant could spill out.
WARNING
If pressure falls below 1.8 bar (22 psi), the hole in the tire may be too large. The vehicleshould not be driven. Call roadside assistanceto have the vehicle towed to a workshop forinspection/replacement of the tire. Volvo rec-ommends an authorized workshop.
11. Switch off the compressor and remove the electrical cable.
12. Unscrew the hose from the tire's valve and screw the valve cap back on.
13. Put the protective hose cover onto the hose to help prevent leakage of any residual seal- ing compound. Return the equipment to thecargo compartment. 14. Immediately drive the vehicle at least 3 km
(2 miles) at a maximum speed of 80 km/h(50 mph) to allow the sealing compound toseal the tire, and then recheck the inflationpressure.
NOTE
During the tire's first revolution, some sealing compound may spray out of the puncturehole.
WARNING
Before driving away, make sure that no one is near the vehicle who could be sprayed withsealing compound. Make sure no one iswithin 2 meters(7 feet) of the vehicle.
15. Rechecking the inflation pressure Connect the hose to the tire's valve and screw the hose connector onto the valve asfar as possible. The compressor must beswitched off. 16. Check the inflation pressure on the air pres-
sure gauge.
• If the pressure is under 1.3 bar (19 psi),the tire is not sufficiently sealed. The vehi-cle should not be driven. Call roadsideassistance to have the vehicle towed.
• If the inflation pressure is higher than1.3 bar (19 psi), the tire must be inflatedto the inflation pressure specified on thetire pressure decal on the driver's sidedoor pillar (1 bar = 100 kPa = 14.5 psi). Ifthe inflation pressure is too high, use theair release valve to release air.
NOTE
Replace the sealing compound bottle and hose after use. Volvo recommends havingthese replaced by an authorized Volvo work-shop.
WARNING
Check inflation pressure regularly.
Volvo recommends driving to the nearest author- ized Volvo workshop to have the tire replaced/repaired. Inform the workshop that the tire con-tains sealing compound.

Inflate tires with the compressorincluded in the tire sealing system The vehicle's original tires can be inflated using the compressor in the tire sealing system.
1. The compressor must be switched off. Make
sure that the switch is in the 0 (Off) position
and take out the electrical cable and the hose.
2. Unscrew the tire's valve cap and screw the hose's valve connector as far as possibleonto the valve. Be sure the air release valve on the com- pressor's hose is completely closed.
3. Connect the electrical cable to the nearest 12 V outlet and start the vehicle.
WARNING
Inhaling exhaust fumes could lead to serious injury. Never leave the engine running in anenclosed space or a space without sufficientventilation.
WARNING
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle while the engine is running.
4. Start the compressor by moving the switch to the I (On) position.
CAUTION
Risk of overheating. The compressor should not be running for longer than 10 minutes ata time.
5. Inflate the tire to the pressure specified on
the tire pressure decal on the driver's side door pillar. If the inflation pressure is toohigh, use the air release valve to release air.
6. Switch off the compressor. Remove the hose and the electrical cable.
7. Screw the valve cap back onto the tire.
NOTE
• After inflating a tire, always replace the valve cap to help prevent valve damagecaused by gravel, dirt, etc.
• Use plastic valve caps only. Metal capscould corrode and become difficult toremove.
NOTE
The compressor is an electric device. Follow local regulations for disposal.

Determining the vehicle's permittedweight
Properly loading your vehicle will provide maxi- mum return of vehicle design performance.
Weight designationsBefore loading your vehicle, familiarize yourself with the following terms for determining yourvehicle's weight ratings, with or without a trailer,from the vehicle's Federal/Canadian Motor Vehi-cle Safety Standards (FMVSS/CMVSS) label, andthe vehicle's tire information placard:
Curb weight
The weight of the vehicle including a full tank of fuel and all standard equipment. It does notinclude passengers, cargo, or optional equipment.
Capacity weight
All weight added to the curb weight, including cargo and optional equipment. When towing, tow-bar weight is also part of cargo weight.
Permissible axle weight
The maximum allowable weight that can be car- ried by a single axle (front or rear). These num-bers are shown on the Federal/Canadian MotorVehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS/CMVSS) label.The total load on each axle must never exceed itsmaximum permissible weight.
Gross vehicle weight (GVW)
The vehicle's curb weight + cargo + passengers.
Steps for Determining Correct Load Limit
1. Locate the statement "the combined weight of occupants and cargo should never exceed XXX kg or XXX lbs." on your vehicle's plac-ard.
2. Determine the combined weight of the driver and passengers that will be riding in yourvehicle.
3. Subtract the combined weight of the driver and passengers from XXX kg or XXX lbs.
4. The resulting figure equals the available amount of cargo and luggage load capacity.For example, if the "XXX" amount equals1400 lbs. and there will be five 150 lb. pas-sengers in your vehicle, the amount of availa-ble cargo and luggage load capacity is 650lbs. (1400 - 750 (5 × 150) = 650 lbs.)
5. Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the vehicle. Thatweight may not safely exceed the availablecargo and luggage load capacity calculatedin Step 4.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer, load from your trailer will be transferred to yourvehicle. Consult this manual to determinehow this reduces the available cargo and lug-gage load capacity of your vehicle.

WARNING
•Exceeding the permissible axle weight, gross vehicle weight, or any other weightrating limits can cause tire overheatingresulting in permanent deformation orcatastrophic failure.
• Do not use replacement tires with lowerload carrying capacities than the tires thatwere original equipment on the vehiclebecause this will lower the vehicle's GVWrating. Use only tires with the correct loadcarrying capacity. Consult your Volvoretailer for information.

Hoisting the vehicle When hoisting the vehicle, it is important to ensure the jack/vehicle hoist is correctlyengaged in the designated attachment pointsunder the vehicle.
For vehicles with self-leveling *, pneumatic sus-
pension (if installed) must be turned off before the vehicle is lifted. Turning off the function in thecenter display.
WARNING
If the vehicle is lifted on a garage jack, the jack must be placed under one of the four lift-ing points. Make sure that the vehicle is cor-rectly positioned on the jack and that it can-not slide off. Make sure the jack plate has arubber pad to help keep the vehicle stableand prevent damage. Always use axle standsor similar.
NOTE
Volvo recommends only using the jack intended for your specific vehicle model. If ajack other than that recommended by Volvo isused, follow the instructions included with theequipment. The vehicle's ordinary jack is only intended to be used in temporary situations for short peri-ods of time, such as when changing wheels inthe event of a flat tire. If the vehicle needs tobe lifted more frequently, or for a longerperiod of time than for a wheel change, agarage jack or hoist is recommended. Alwaysfollow the instructions for use provided withthe equipment.
