Temporary puncture repair kit  
This kit consists of a compressor and a sealant  
Access to the kit  
Tyre under-inflation detection  
cartridge.  
It allows the temporary repair of a tyre.  
You are then able to go to the nearest garage.  
If the vehicle is fitted with tyre under-  
inflation detection, the under-inflation  
warning lamp will remain on after the  
wheel has been repaired until the  
system is reinitialised by a CITROËN  
dealer or a qualified workshop.  
It is designed to repair most punctures  
which could affect the tyre, located on  
the tyre tread or shoulder.  
Its compressor can be used to check  
and adjust the pressure of the tyre.  
The vehicle's electric system allows the  
connection of a compressor for long enough  
to inflate a tyre after a puncture repair or for  
inflating a small inflatable accessory.  
This kit is installed in the storage box, under the  
boot floor.  
Only the 12 V socket at the front of  
the vehicle allows the connection of the  
compressor for long enough to repair or  
inflate a tyre.  
The other 12 V sockets in the vehicle  
are not suited to the use of the  
compressor.

vehicle batteries to a special collection  
point.  
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.  
Wash your hands afterwards.  
If your vehicle has an automatic  
gearbox, do not try to start the engine

Raise the plastic cover on the (+) terminal,  
if your vehicle has one.  
F
F
Start the engine of the vehicle with the  
good battery and leave it running for a  
few minutes.  
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.  
Never try to start the engine by  
connecting a battery charger.  
Never use a 24 V or higher battery  
booster.  
First check that the slave 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, ...).  
F
Wait until the engine returns to idle then  
disconnect the jump lead cables in the  
reverse order.  
Refit the plastic cover to the (+) terminal, if  
your vehicle has one.
