Remove the compressor and unclip and
store the bottle in a sealed bag to avoid stai-
ning your vehicle with traces of fluid.
Drive immediately for approximately two
miles (three kilometres), at reduced speed
(between 15 and 35 mph [20 and 60 km/h]),
to plug the puncture.
Stop to check the repair and the pressure.
Connect the compressor pipe directly to the
valve of the repaired wheel.
Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket again.
If this pressure has not been rea-
ched after approximately five to ten
minutes, the tyre cannot be repai-
red; contact a CITROËN dealer to have
your vehicle repaired.
!
Start the vehicle again and leave the engine
running.
Adjust the pressure using the compressor
(to inflate: switch A in position "1"; to de-
flate: switch A in position "0" and press but-
ton B), in accordance with the vehicle's tyre
pressure label (located on the door aper-
ture on the left-hand side), then remember
to check that the leak has been plugged
correctly (no further loss of pressure after
several miles [kilometres]).
Remove the compressor, then store the
whole kit.
Drive at reduced speed (50 mph [80 km/h]
max) limiting the distance travelled to ap-
proximately 120 miles (200 km).
Take care as the bottle of sealant
!
contains ethylene-glycol. This pro-
duct is harmful if swallowed and
causes irritation to the eyes. Keep it out of
reach of children.
The expiry date of the fluid is indicated on
the base of the bottle.
The bottle is designed for a single use; even
if only partly used, it must be replaced.
After use, do not discard the bottle into
the environment, take it to an authorised
waste disposal site CITROËN.
Using the kit
Switch off the ignition.
Affix the speed limitation sticker to the ve-
hicle's steering wheel to remind you that a
wheel is in temporary use.
Check that the switch A is in position "0".
Connect the pipe of the bottle 1 to the valve
of the tyre to be repaired.
Connect the compressor's electric plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket.
Start the vehicle and leave the engine run-
ning.
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle of sea-
lant, available from CITROËN dealers.
Visit a CITROËN dealer as soon as possi-
ble to have the tyre repaired or replaced by
a technician.
Switch on the compressor by moving the
switch A to position "1" until the tyre pres-
sure reaches 2.0 bars.
If the vehicle is fitted with tyre under-infla-
tion detection, the tyre under-inflation war-
ning lamp will remain on after the wheel
has been repaired until the system is rei-
nitialised by a CITROËN dealer.
