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 permanently 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.
