Volvo 2006 C70 - Manual (Page 128)

Contact with the sealing compound may cause skin irritation. If contact occurs, wash the affected area immediately
with soap and water.
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.
Within seven minutes, inflate the tire to between 22 - 50 psi (1.8 - 3.5 bar). Switch off the compressor briefly to get a
clear reading from the pressure gauge (9).
CAUTION!
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.
Disconnect the electrical wire from the 12-volt socket.
Unscrew the hose from the tire's inflation valve and reinstall the valve cap.
Fold down the orange section of the tire sealing system to its original (horizontal) position and press the safety catch
into place.
Safely stow the tire sealing system kit in a convenient place as it will soon be used again to check the tire's inflation
pressure.
Immediately drive the vehicle for approximately 2 miles (3 km) to distribute the sealing compound in the tire.
WARNING!
If heavy vibrations, unsteady steering behavior, or noises should occur while driving, reduce speed and park the car
in a safe place. Recheck the tire for bumps, cracks, or other visible damage, and recheck its inflation pressure. If the
pressure is below 16 psi (1.3 bar), do not continue driving. Have the vehicle towed to a workshop or Volvo retailer.
Stage 2: Checking inflation pressure
Park the car in a safe place.
Ensure that the orange switch (2) is in position 0 (the 0 side of the switch should be pressed down).
Remove the valve cap from the tire's inflation valve and screw the hose connector onto the valve as tightly as
possible by hand.
Connect the electrical wire to the nearest 12-volt socket in the vehicle.
Start the vehicle's engine.
Check the tire's inflation pressure on the gauge (9).
NOTE: In dark conditions, switching on the tire sealing system's compressor will illuminate the pressure gauge.
Inflate the tire to the correct pressure as indicated in the tire inflation tables on page 116. If the tire needs to be
inflated, start the tire sealing system's compressor. If necessary, release air from the tire by pressing the vent button (8).
Turn off the compressor (press switch 2 to the 0 position) when the correct inflation pressure has been reached.

CAUTION!
The compressor should not be used for more than ten minutes at a time to avoid overheating.
