Factors affecting the Internet connection.
The amount of data transmitted depends on the
services or apps currently in use in the vehicle.
Streaming music, for example, involves the trans-
mission of a large amount of data, and this
requires a good connection and a strong signal.
Phone to vehicleInternet connection speed may vary depending
on the location of the cellular phone in the vehi-
cle. Move the phone closer to the center display
to increase signal strength. Make sure that noth-
ing is between the phone and center display that
could be blocking the signal.
Phone to network operatorThe speed of the mobile network varies depend-
ing on the coverage in the vehicle's current loca-
tion. Coverage may be poorer in e.g. tunnels,
mountainous areas, deep valleys or indoors. Con-
nection speed is also dependent on the subscrip-
tion you have with your service provider.
NOTE If you experience any problems with data traf-
fic, contact your network service provider.

560 function, the telltale will flash for approximately
one minute and then remain continuously illumi-
nated. This sequence will continue upon subse-
quent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunc-
tion exists. When the malfunction indicator is illu-
minated, the system may not be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of
reasons, including the installation of replacement
or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after
replacing one or more tires or wheels on your
vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alter-
nate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to con-
tinue to function properly.
Messages in the instrument panelIf tire pressure is too low, the low tire pressure
warning symbol is shown in the instrument panel
along with a message.
• Tire pressure low Check tires, calibrate
after fill
• Tire pressure system Temporarily
unavailable
• Tire pressure system Service required
To keep in mind
•Always calibrate the system after changing
wheels or adjusting tire pressure. See the tire pressure placard on the driver's side B pillar
for Volvo-recommended tire pressures.
• If you switch to a tire of another size than the
factory-mounted tires, the system must be
calibrated for these tires to avoid false warn-
ings.
• If a spare wheel 7
is used, it is possible that
the tire pressure monitoring system will not
work correctly due to the differences
between the wheels.
• The system does not replace the need for
regular tire inspection and maintenance.
• It is not possible to deactivate the tire pres-
sure monitoring system.
WARNING •
Incorrect inflation pressure could lead to
tire failure, which could cause the driver
to lose control of the vehicle.
• The system cannot predict sudden tire
damage.

Calibrating the tire pressure
monitoring system*
In order for the tire pressure monitoring system,
Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), to
function correctly, tire pressure reference values
must be set correctly. This must be done each
time the tires are changed or the tire pressure is
adjusted.
For example, when driving with a heavy load or at
high speeds (over 160 km/h (100 mph)), tire
pressure should be adjusted to the Volvo-recom-
mended tire pressure values. The system should
then be recalibrated.
1.

Switch off the ignition.
2. Inflate the tires to the pressure indicated on the tire pressure placard on the driver's side
B pillar.
3. Start the vehicle.
4. Open the Car status app in App view. 5.
Tap TPMS.NOTE The car must be stationary when calibration is
started.
6.
Tap Calibrate.
7. Tap OK to confirm that the tire pressure in
all four tires has been checked and adjusted. 8.

Run the car until calibration is complete.
Calibration is done when the vehicle is driv-
ing at a speed above 35 km/h (22 mph).
> When enough data has been collected for the system to detect low tire pressure, the
color of the tire symbols in the center dis-
play will change from gray to green. The
system will not provide any other confir-
mation that calibration has been comple-
ted.
If the car's ignition is switched off before
calibration is complete, the tires in the
center display change color from gray to
green upon next start-up, even if calibra-
tion is not complete. Perform the calibra-
tion again and allow it to complete within
the same operating cycle to ensure that
the calibration is carried out correctly.
If start-up of calibration fails, the following
message appears: Calibration
unsuccessful. Try again..

NOTE Always remember to calibrate the Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System when the wheels
have been changed or the tire inflation pres-
sure has been corrected according to the tire
pressure decal or tire inflation pressure table.
If correct reference values have not been set,
the system cannot issue low tire pressure
alerts correctly.
The vehicle must be stationary with the
engine running to access the calibration but-
ton and to start the calibration process.
WARNING
The exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide,
which is invisible and odorless but very poi-
sonous. For this reason, always perform the
calibration procedure outdoors or in a work-
shop with exhaust gas evacuation equipment.

Yellow tire:
• The tire's inflation pressure is too low. Stop
and check/inflate the tire as soon as possi-
ble. Recalibrate the system after adjusting
the tire pressure.
All tires yellow:
• The inflation pressure is too low in one or
more tires. Stop and check/inflate the tires
as soon as possible. Recalibrate the system
after adjusting tire pressure.
