How To Calibrate Your Volvo Car Clock

Properly calibrated reference values for tire pressure are essential for the operation of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System. When getting new tires or adjusting the pressure in the old ones, is a necessary routine maintenance step. Take note that in order for the in-car apps to function properly, the time must be properly adjusted in your Volvo. We at Volvo Cars Brooklyn strongly suggest that you go through the menu and pick "Automatic Time" to avoid any problems that may arise when syncing the apps.

How to Adjust the Clock in Your Volvo Automobile

Follow the steps above to adjust the system's calibration:

Step 1: Turn Off The Vehicle's Engine

• Adjust the air pressure in the tire (or tires) as necessary.
• Check the inflation pressure table in the printed instruction manual or the tire pressure decal that is located on the B-pillar on the driver's side of the vehicle. The B-pillar is the structural member that runs along the side of the vehicle and is located at the back of the driver's door opening.

Step 2: Turn On The Car's Engine

• Launch the Car status app by selecting it from the App view on the center display.
• To access the Tire Pressure Monitoring System, tap the Status button.
• To calibrate the device, press the button.
• Once the tire pressure has been checked and changed in all four tires, you should tap the OK button.

Step 3: Drive The Vehicle

• The process of calibration will be finished while the vehicle is being driven, but it will be stopped if the car is parked and the engine is turned off. When driving again, calibration will continue automatically in the background.
• When sufficient data has been collected to identify a condition involving low tire pressure, the color of the tires in the central display will change to green to reflect this.
• When the calibration process is complete, the system will not display any text confirmation, but it will indicate whether or not the calibration was successful. Adjusting the tire pressure to the recommended inflation pressures is essential when traveling with large loads or at sustained highway speeds.
• After adjusting the pressure of the inflation, repeat steps 1 through 8.

Any time you swap out your wheels or adjust the tire pressure using the inflation pressure decal or tire inflation pressure chart, you must remember to recalibrate the Tire Pressure Monitoring System. In the event that the correct values have not been specified, the system will not be able to correctly provide alerts for low tire pressure. In order to access the calibration key and get the calibration procedure started, the car needs to be parked while still having the engine running. Also keep in mind that the exhaust emissions contain carbon monoxide, which is a chemical that cannot be seen or smelled but is extremely hazardous to your health. As a result of this, the method for the calibration should always be carried out outside or in a workshop that is equipped with exhaust gas evacuation gear.
