9. Start the vehicle's engine. WARNING The vehicle's engine should be running when the tire sealing system is used to avoid battery drain. Therefore, be sure the vehicle is parked in a well ventilated place, or outdoors, before using the system. 10. Start the tire sealing system's compressor by pressing the on/off switch to position I . WARNING Never stand next to the tire being inflated when the compressor is in operation. If cracks, bubbles, etc. form on the tire, switch off the compressor immediately. If there is visible damage to the sidewall or the rim, the tire cannot be repaired. The vehicle should not be driven if this occurs. Contact a towing service or Volvo On Call Roadside Assistance if applicable. NOTE The air pressure gauge will temporarily show an increase in pressure to approximately 88 psi (6 bar) while the sealing compound is being pumped into the tire. The pressure should return to a normal level after approximately 30 seconds. 11. Within seven minutes, inflate the tire to between 22-44 psi (1.8-3.0 bar). Switch off the compressor briefly to get a clear reading from the pressure gauge. CAUTION The compressor should not be used for more than 10 minutes at a time to avoid overheating. WARNING If the pressure remains below 22 psi (1.8 bar) after approximately seven minutes, turn off the compressor. In this case, the hole is too large to be sealed and the vehicle should not be driven. 12. Switch off the compressor and disconnect the electrical wire from the 12-volt socket. 13. Unscrew the hose from the tire's inflation valve and reinstall the valve cap. 14. Immediately drive the vehicle for approximately 2 miles (3 km) at a maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) to distribute the sealing compound in the tire. NOTE Safely stow the tire sealing system in a convenient place as it will soon be used again to check the tire's inflation pressure. After use, the empty bottle of sealing compound cannot be removed from the bottle holder. Consult a Volvo retailer to have the bottle removed and properly disposed of. WARNING If heavy vibrations, unsteady steering behavior, or noises should occur while driving, reduce speed and park the
