Using the puncture repair kit  
Puncture kit  
The puncture repair kit is located in  
the boot, underneath the tool kit.  
The puncture repair kit is a com-  
plete system including a compres-  
sor and a setting product.  
1 Remove the sticker found in the  
kit, then stick it on the steering  
wheel to remind you that you  
are driving with a wheel that is  
only fit for temporary use and  
that your speed is therefore lim-  
ited.

Do not exceed ꢀ0 km/h (68 mph).  
The tyre must be examined,  
then repaired or replaced as  
soon as possible by a profes-  
sional.  
2 Connect the flask 1 to the valve  
of the tyre to be repaired.  
3 Connect the electric cable to  
one of the vehicle's ꢀꢁV sock-  
ets.  
Warning, the flask of puncture repair gel contains ethylene-glycol, a product that is toxic if ingested  
and irritating for the eyes.  
Keep out of the reach of children.  
After use, do not dispose of the flask in the natural environment, but return it to a CITROËN dealer  
or to a recognised recovery facility.  
This repair kit is available from a CiTrn dealer.
