WHEELS AND TIRES

Connecting
1. Activate the vehicle's hazard warning flashers
if 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 seal
the hole.
2. Peel off the speed limit sticker and affix it to
the steering wheel hub where it will be
clearly visible to the driver. 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.
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 is
screwed into the holder.
WARNING
Contact with the sealing compound may
cause skin irritation. If contact occurs, wash
the affected area immediately with soap and
water.
4. Unscrew the orange cover over the bottle
holder and unscrew the cap on the bottle of
sealing compound.
5. Screw the bottle into the bottle holder.
WARNING
The bottle is equipped with a catch to keep it
securely in place and help prevent sealing
compound leakage. Once in place, the bottle
cannot be unscrewed. This must be done by a
trained and qualified Volvo service technician.
6. Remove the valve cap from the tire’s inflation
valve and screw the tire sealing system’s
hose connector onto the valve as tightly as
possible by hand.
7. Connect the electrical wire to the nearest
12-volt socket in the vehicle.
NOTE
Be sure that none of the other 12-volt sock-
ets is being used while the compressor is in
operation.
