How to Reset the Tire Pressure Warning on Volvo XC60?
2 Answers
Steps to reset the tire pressure warning on Volvo XC60: Start the car with all doors closed. Locate the menu button on the central dashboard, marked with a capital letter 'M', and click to enter. Select 'My XC60' and click to enter, then find 'Tire Pressure Initialization' and confirm. What to do if tire pressure is insufficient: If no damage is visible on the car's tires, simply inflate them to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system. If inspection reveals a puncture, drive to a car repair shop promptly for a tire repair, then reinflate the tire. If the tire pressure warning reappears after inflation without any punctures, it may be due to air leakage caused by a deformed wheel rim. It is recommended to check the wheel rim and replace it if necessary. How tire pressure monitoring works: It uses pressure sensors installed inside the tires to measure the air pressure. A wireless transmitter then sends the pressure information from inside the tire to a central receiver module.
I remember the last time my XC60 tire pressure warning light came on, I followed these steps: First, I parked and checked all tires for leaks or punctures, then used a tire pressure gauge to measure the pressure of all four tires to ensure they met the standard values (as indicated on the sticker on the door frame). Next, I started the vehicle, navigated to 'Settings' - 'Vehicle Status' - 'Tire Pressure Monitoring System' on the central control screen, and selected the 'Calibrate' option. The system then prompted that a steady drive at 30-80 km/h for about 15 minutes was required to complete the automatic learning process. It's crucial to ensure that the tire pressure is completely normal before calibration; otherwise, the warning light will come back on. This reset method is applicable to most model years of the XC60, and it's recommended to perform the calibration on a straight road with good conditions to avoid sudden braking.
