Comprising a compressor and a sealant

cartridge, it allows the temporary repair of

a tyre so that you can drive to the nearest

garage.

It is designed to repair most punctures which

could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread

or shoulder.

The kit is stowed in a bag inside the storage

box located at the foot of the second row

passenger seat.

A space is provided for the storage of the

triangle in the interior trim of the tailgate.

Before leaving your vehicle to set up and

install the triangle, switch on the hazard

warning lamps and put on your high

visibility vest.

The vehicle's electric system allows the

connection of the compressor for long

enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture

repair.

Refer to the instructions on assembly/

unfolding indicated in the user guide

such as sulphuric acid and lead.

They must be disposed of in

accordance with regulations and must

not, in any circumstances, be discarded

with household waste.

Take used remote control batteries and

vehicle batteries to a special collection

point.

Never try to start the engine by connecting

a battery charger.

Never use a 24 V or higher battery

booster.

Check beforehand that the backup

battery has a nominal voltage of 12 V and

a capacity at least equal to that of the

discharged battery.

The two vehicles must not be in contact

with each other.

Switch off the electrical consumers on

both vehicles (audio system, wipers,

lighting, etc.).

Ensure that the jump lead cables do not

pass close to moving parts of the engine

(cooling fan, belts, etc.).

The battery is located under the bonnet.

For access to the (+) terminal:

F release the bonnet using the interior lever,

then the exterior safety catch,

F raise the bonnet and secure it with its stay,

F lift the plastic cover for access to the (+)

terminal.

Protect your eyes and face before

handling the battery.

All operations on the battery must be

carried out in a well ventilated area and

away from naked flames and sources of

sparks, so as to avoid the risk of explosion

or fire.

The battery (-) terminal is not accessible.

A remote earth point is located on the upper

part of the bonnet (next to the battery).

Wash your hands afterwards.

Do not disconnect the (+) terminal while

the engine is running.

In the event of a breakdown

In some circumstances it may be necessary to

charge the battery:

F Start the engine of the vehicle with the

good battery and leave it running for a few

minutes.

F Operate the starter on the broken down

vehicle and let the engine run.

If the engine does not start straight away,

switch off the ignition and wait a few moments

before trying again.

-

if you only use your vehicle for short

journeys,

-

if the vehicle is to be taken off the road for

several weeks.

Contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified

workshop.

F Wait until the engine returns to idle then

disconnect the jump lead cables in the

reverse order.

F Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if

your vehicle has one.

F Allow the engine to run for at least

30 minutes, by driving or with the vehicle

stationary, so that the battery reaches an

adequate state of charge.

If you wish to charge your vehicle's battery

yourself, use only a charger compatible

with lead-acid batteries with a nominal

voltage of 12 V.

Follow the instructions provided by the

manufacturer of the charger.

Never reverse polarities.

F Lift the plastic cover on the (+) terminal, if

your vehicle has one.

F Connect the red cable to the (+) terminal of

flat battery A (at the metal elbow) then to

the (+) terminal of backup battery B or the

booster.

Some functions, including Stop & Start,

are not available if the battery is not

sufficiently charged.

It is not necessary to disconnect the

battery.

F Connect one end of the green or black

cable to the (-) terminal of backup battery

B or the booster (or an earth point on the

other vehicle).

Charging the battery using

a battery charger

F Connect the other end of the green or black

cable to earth point C on the broken down

vehicle.

For optimum service life of the battery, it is

essential to maintain an adequate state of

charge.

232

In the event of a breakdown

Before disconnecting the battery:

F close all openings (doors, boot, windows,

roof),

F At the end of the charging operation, switch

off charger B before disconnecting the

cables from battery A.

F switch off all electrical consumers (audio

system, wipers, lighting, etc.).

F switch off the ignition and wait for four

minutes.

At the battery, detach the (+) terminal only.

If this label is present, it is essential to

use only a 12 V charger to avoid causing

irreversible damage to the electrical

components related to the Stop & Start

system.

Quick-release terminal clamp

Disconnecting the (+) terminal

Never try to charge a frozen battery – risk

of explosion!

F Switch off the ignition.

If the battery has frozen, have it checked

by a CITROËN dealer or by a qualified

workshop who will check that the internal

components have not been damaged and

that the container has not cracked, which

would mean a risk of toxic and corrosive

acid leaking.

F Switch off all electrical consumers (audio

system, lighting, wipers, etc.).

F Switch off charger B before connecting the

cables to the battery, so as to avoid any

dangerous sparks.

F Ensure that the charger cables are in good

condition.

F Raise the plastic cover, if your vehicle has

one, on the (+) terminal.

F Connect charger B cables as follows:

F Raise the lever A fully to release the clamp B.

F Remove the clamp B by lifting it off.
