Repair procedure

Do not remove any foreign body

(e.g. nail, screw) which has penetrated

the tyre.

It is designed to repair most punctures located

on the tyre tread.

The vehicle's electric system allows the

connection of the compressor to the 12 V

power supply for long enough to repair a tyre

after a puncture.

► Park the vehicle without obstructing traﬃc

and apply the parking brake.

► Follow the safety instructions (hazard

warning lamps, warning triangle, high visibility

jacket, etc.) according to the legislation in force

in the country in which you are driving.

► Switch the ignition oﬀ.

► Uncoil the pipe stowed under the compressor.

► Connect the pipe from the compressor to the

valve of the tyre to be repaired and tighten ﬁrmly.

► Check that the compressor switch is in

position "O".

► Fully uncoil the electric cable stowed under

the compressor.

► Connect the compressor's electric plug to the

vehicle's 12 V socket.

For more information on the Tool kit,

refer to the corresponding section.

Tyre inﬂation pressures are indicated on

this label.

For more information on Identiﬁcation

markings, particularly this label, refer to the

corresponding section.

► Aﬃx the speed limit sticker.

Should the pressure of one or more tyres

be adjusted, it is necessary to reinitialise

the under-inﬂation detection system.

For more information on Tyre under-inﬂation

detection, refer to the corresponding section.

► Remove the transparent cap from the bottle

of sealant.

► Lift the protective cover before installing the

bottle of sealant on the compressor.

► Turn the bottle of sealant over and screw it a

quarter turn into the compressor.

The speed limit sticker must be aﬃxed

inside the vehicle in the area close to the

You must contact a CITROËN dealer or a

qualiﬁed workshop to have the repair checked

and the tyre changed.

► Switch on the compressor by moving the

switch to position "I" until the tyre pressure

reaches 2 bar. The sealant product is injected

under pressure into the tyre; do not disconnect

the pipe from the valve during this operation (risk

of blowback).

Checking/adjusting tyre

pressures

The compressor can be used, without injecting

sealant, to check and, if necessary, adjust the

tyre pressures.

► Remove the valve cap from the tyre and keep

it in a clean place.

► Uncoil the pipe stowed under the compressor.

► Screw the pipe onto the valve and tighten

ﬁrmly.

► 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 after approximately 7 minutes, the

pressure of 2 bar is not reached, this

indicates that the tyre is not repairable;

contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualiﬁed

workshop for assistance.

► 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.

► Stop to check the repair and the tyre

pressure using the kit:

• If the tyre pressure is incorrect, contact a

CITROËN dealer to have the tyre changed.

• 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.

► Move the switch to position "O".

► Disconnect the compressor's electric plug

from the vehicle's 12 V socket.

► Remove the kit.

► Reﬁt the cap on the valve.

The sealant product is harmful if

swallowed and causes irritation to the

eyes.

Keep this product out of the reach of children.

The use-by date of the ﬂuid is marked on the

bottle.

If after 7 minutes the pressure of 2 bar is

not reached, the tyre is damaged;

With a tyre repaired using this type of kit,
