Volvo XC60: Changing wheels with TPMS
Please note the following when changing or replacing the factory installed TPMS wheels/ tires on the vehicle:
• Only the factory-mounted wheels are equipped with TPMS sensors in the valves.
• If the vehicle is equipped with a temporary spare tire, this tire does not have a TPMS sensor.
• If wheels without TPMS sensors are mounted on the vehicle, TIRE PRESS SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed each time the vehicle is driven above 25 mph (40 km/h) for 10 minutes or more.
• Once TPMS sensors are properly installed, the warning message should not reappear.
If the message is still displayed, drive the vehicle for several minutes at a speed of 20 mph (30 km/h) or faster to erase the message.
• Volvo recommends that TPMS sensors be fitted on all wheels used on the vehicle.
Volvo does not recommend moving sensors back and forth between sets of wheels.
CAUTION When inflating tires with TPMS valves, press the pump's mouthpiece straight onto the valve to help avoid bending or otherwise damaging the valve.
NOTE
• If you change to tires with a different
recommended inflation pressure, the
TPMS system must be recalibrated to
these tires. On U.S. models, this must
be done by a trained and qualified Volvo
service technician. On Canadian models,
see the following section "Recalibrating
TPMS."
• If a tire is changed, or if the TPMS sensor
is moved to another wheel, the sensor's
seal, nut, and valve core should be
replaced.
• When installing TPMS sensors, the
vehicle must be parked for at least
15 minutes with the ignition off. If the
vehicle is driven within 15 minutes, a
TPMS error message will be displayed.
Erasing warning messages
When a low tire pressure warning message has been displayed, and the tire pressure warning light has come on: 1. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the inflation pressure of all four tires. 2. ...Recalibrating TPMS (Canadian models only)
In certain cases, it may be necessary to recalibrate TPMS to conform to Volvo's recommended tire inflation pressures (see the inflation pressure table on page 291), for example, if higher infl ...See also:
