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.
●
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.
