Wheels and tyres
Tyre pressure
Recommended tyre pressure
The tyre pressure decal on the inside of the
fuel filler flap shows what pressure the tyres
should have with different load and speed
conditions.
1. All countries except USA, Canada and
Australia.
1:1. Volvo Genuine tyre
1:2. Spare tyre
2. Australia
Checking the tyre pressure
Check the tyre pressure regularly. The
correct tyre pressure is shown in the tyre
pressure table. The stated tyre pressures
refer to cold tyres. (Cold tyres mean the tyres
are the same temperature as the ambient
temperature.)
Driving with the wrong tyre pressure
adversely affects the car’s driving character-
istics and can increase tyre wear. After just a
few kilometres of driving, the tyres warm up
and the pressure increases. Therefore air
should not be released if the pressure is
checked when the tyres are warm. However
the pressure should be increased if it is too
low.
