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 system
The 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’s tread area, not
the sidewall.
•
Tires with large holes or tears cannot be
repaired with the tire sealing system.
•
After use, stow the tire sealing system
properly to help prevent rattling.
WARNING
•
After using the tire sealing system, the
vehicle should not be driven farther than
approximately 120 miles (200 km).
•
Have the tire inspected by a trained and
qualified Volvo service technician as soon
as possible to determine if it can be per-
manently repaired or must be replaced.
•
The vehicle should not be driven faster
than 50 mph (80 km/h) while using a tire
that has been temporarily repaired with
the tire sealing system.
•
After using the tire sealing system, drive
carefully and avoid abrupt steering
maneuvers and sudden stops.
Sealing compound container
The sealing compound container must be
replaced if the tire sealing system has been used
to repair a tire or if the container’s expiration date
has passed (see the date on decal).
NOTE
•
After use, the sealing compound bottle,
the hose, and certain other system com-
ponents must be replaced. Please con-
sult your Volvo retailer for replacement
parts.
•
If the sealing compound bottle’s expira-
tion date has passed, please take it to a
Volvo retailer or a recycling station that
can properly dispose of harmful sub-
stances.
