The illustration is generic and may vary from model to model or after a software update
Color indications:
  • No color indicator: tire pressure is above the threshold for a low inflation pressure warning.
  • Yellow: low tire pressure. Stop and check/reinflate the tire(s) as soon as possible.
  • Red: inflation pressure is very low. Stop immediately and check/reinflate the tire(s).
  • When no tire pressure values or updated tire pressure values are shown then system has not learned the tire pressure values. It might be necessary to drive at a speed of at least 20 mph (30 km/h) for several minutes.
  • If the TPMS symbol (telltale) flashes for approx. 1 minute then glows steadily, and the message Tire pressure system Service required is displayed: this indicates that the system is not functioning correctly. Have it checked by a trained and qualified Volvo service technician.

Please note that the sample tire pressures shown in the illustration are in bar. The unit of measure can be changed (e.g., to pound per scare inch (psi) in the center display's Settings menu, under SystemUnitsTire Pressure.
