In The Event of a Breakdown
Warning
8
It is possible that some tires, especially
with larger punctures or damage to the
sidewall, cannot be sealed completely.
Air pressure loss in the tire may adversely
affect tire perfomance.
For this reason, you should avoid abrupt
steering or other driving maneuvers,
especially if the vehicle is heavily loaded or
if a trailer is in use.
-
Carefully connect the air hose connector
to the valve of the tyre to be repaired by
turning clockwise.
-
-
Drive immediately for approximately 3 miles
(5 kilometres) at reduced speed (between 12
and 37 mph (20 and 60 km/h)) to plug the
puncture.
-
-
Check all connections.
Warning
Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket.
While driving, if you experience any
unusual vibration, ride distrubance or noise,
reduce your speed and drive with caution
until you can safely pull off the vehicle on
the side of road.
Stop to check the repair and the tyre
pressure using the kit:
-
-
Switch the ignition on.
Start the compressor by placing the switch
at position "I" and adjust the pressure
to the value shown on the vehicle's tyre
pressure label. To deflate: press the black
button located on the compressor pipe,
near the valve connection.
●
If the tyre pressure is incorrect, contact
a CITROËN dealer to have the tyre
changed.
Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop.
●
If the tyre pressure is correct, drive a
second time for approximately 3 miles (5
kilometres) at reduced speed (between
12 and 37 mph (20 and 60 km/h)), stop
then check again the tyre pressure using
the kit to confirm the effective repair of
the tyre.
Checking/adjusting tyre
pressures
Warning
If after approximately 15 minutes, the
pressure is not reached, the tyre is damaged;
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop for assistance.
The compressor can be used, without injecting
sealant, to check and, if necessary, adjust the
tyre pressures.

(1000 km).
You must contact a CITROËN dealer or
