Practical information

Temporary puncture repair kit

This kit consists of a compressor and a sealant cartridge.

It allows the temporary repair of a tyre.

You are then able to go to the nearest garage.

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.

Access to the kit

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.

The kit is stowed in the boot under the floor, in the polystyrene storage box.

Repair procedure

1. Sealing

F

Switch off the ignition.

Turn the selector A to the

"sealant" position.

Check that the switch B is in

position "O".

F

Uncoil the white pipe G fully.

F

Connect the compressor's electric plug to

Start the vehicle and leave the engine

running.

Unscrew the cap from the white pipe.

Connect the white pipe to the valve of the

tyre to be repaired.

Take care, this product is harmful

(e.g. ethylene-glycol, colophony...) if

swallowed and causes irritation to the eyes.

Keep this product out of the reach of

children.

Do not start the compressor before

connecting the white pipe to the tyre

valve: the sealant product would be

expelled through the pipe.

Avoid removing any foreign bodies

which have penetrated into the tyre.

205

Practical information

F

Switch on the compressor by moving

the switch B to position "I" until the tyre

pressure reaches 2.0 bars.

The sealant is injected into the tyre under

pressure; do not disconnect the pipe from

the valve during this operation (risk of

splashing).

F

Remove the kit and screw the cap back on

the white pipe.

Take care to avoid staining your vehicle

with traces of fluid. Keep the kit to hand.

Drive immediately for approximately

three miles (five 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 tyre

pressure using the kit.

Tyre under-inﬂation detection

If after around 5 to 7 minutes the

pressure is not attained, this indicates

that the tyre is not repairable; contact

a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified

workshop for assistance.

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 PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified workshop.

2. Inﬂation

F

Turn the selector A to the "air"

position.

the vehicle's 12 V socket.

Start the vehicle again and leave the

engine running.

F

Adjust the pressure using the compressor

(to inflate: switch B in position "I"; to

deflate: switch B in position "O" and press

button C), in accordance with the vehicle's

tyre pressure label (located on the left

hand door aperture).

F

A loss of pressure indicates that the

puncture has not been fully plugged;

contact a PEUGEOT dealer or qualified

workshop for assistance.

As soon as possible, go to a PEUGEOT

dealer or a qualified workshop.

You must inform the technician that you

have used this kit. After inspection, the

technician will advise you on whether

the tyre can be repaired or if it must be

replaced.
