Temporarily repairing a flat tire is done in two stages: Stage 1: The hole is sealed by pumping sealing compound into the tire. The car is then driven a short distance to distribute the sealing compound in the tire. NOTE Do not remove any foreign objects (nails, etc.) from the tire before using the sealing system. NOTE Stage 2: The tire's inflation pressure is checked and adjusted if necessary. WARNING Never leave the tire sealing system unattended when it is operating. Keep the tire sealing system away from children. Be sure the vehicle is parked safely off the road and away from moving traffic. Apply the parking brake. Stage 1: Sealing the hole 1. Open the cover on the tire sealing kit. 2. Peel off the speed limit sticker and affix it to the steering wheel hub where it will be clearly visible to the driver. 3. Ensure that the on/off switch is in position 0 (the 0 side of the switch should be pressed down). 4. Put on the gloves included in the tire sealing system. 5. Unscrew the orange cover over the bottle holder and unscrew the cap on the bottle of sealing compound. NOTE Do not break the seal on the bottle. This occurs automatically when the bottle is screwed into the holder. 6. 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 Volvo retailer. 7. 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. 8. Connect the electrical wire to the nearest 12-volt socket in the vehicle. 190 07 Wheels and tires Tire sealing system

Temporarily repairing a flat tire is done in two stages:
Stage 1
: The hole is sealed by pumping sealing compound into the tire. The car is then driven a short distance to
distribute the sealing compound in the tire.
NOTE
Do not remove any foreign objects (nails, etc.) from the tire before using the sealing system.
NOTE
Stage 2
: The tire's inflation pressure is checked and adjusted if necessary.
WARNING
Never leave the tire sealing system unattended when it is operating.
Keep the tire sealing system away from children.
Be sure the vehicle is parked safely off the road and away from moving traffic.
Apply the parking brake.
Stage 1: Sealing the hole
1. Open the cover on the tire sealing kit.
2. Peel off the speed limit sticker and affix it to the steering wheel hub where it will be clearly visible to the driver.
3. Ensure that the on/off switch is in position
0
(the
0
side of the switch should be pressed down).
4. Put on the gloves included in the tire sealing system.
5. Unscrew the orange cover over the bottle holder and unscrew the cap on the bottle of sealing compound.
NOTE
Do not break the seal on the bottle. This occurs automatically when the bottle is screwed into the holder.
6. 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 Volvo retailer.
7. 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.
8. Connect the electrical wire to the nearest 12-volt socket in the vehicle.
