2006 VOLVO V70
inflation pressure data to a receiver located in the vehicle.
USA - FCC ID: MRXTG315AM04
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following conditions: (1)
This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
WARNING!
The TPMS system uses a radio frequency of 315 MHz. Accessory electrical equipment using the
same frequency could interfere with TPMS and should not be installed in the vehicle. Please consult
your Volvo retailer, a qualified Volvo service technician, or the accessory equipment's supplier for
further information.
When low inflation pressure is detected, TPMS will light up the tire pressure warning light (
) i (also
referred to as a telltale) in the instrument panel, and will display a message in the text window. The
wording of this message is determined by the degree of inflation pressure loss.
When the tire pressure monitoring system warning light is on, one or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. You should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper
pressure as indicated on the vehicle's tire information placard.
Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and
stopping ability. Each tire, including the spare, should be checked monthly when cold and set to the
recommended inflation pressure as specified in the vehicle placard and owner's manual.
NOTE: If a fault occurs in TPMS, the tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 1 minute
and TIRE PRESS SYST SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed.
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the
inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label, you should consult the appropriate section of this owner's manual to
determine the proper tire inflation pressure.) When the low tire pressure telltale is illuminated, one or
more of your tires is significantly underinflated. You should stop and check your tires as soon as
possible, and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly underinflated tire causes the
tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread
life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability. Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction telltale to indicate when the system is not operating properly. When the
