ACCESS TO THE KIT

TEMPORARY PUNCTURE REPAIR

KIT

Complete system consisting of a compressor and a sealant cartridge

which permits 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.

This kit is installed in the storage box, under the boot ﬂoor.

F. Sealant cartridge.

G. White pipe with cap for repair.

H. Black pipe for inﬂation.

I. Speed limit sticker.

C. Deﬂation button.

d. Pressure gauge (in bar and p.s.i.).

E. Compartment housing:

-

a cable with adaptor for 12 V socket,

The speed limit sticker I must be afﬁxed to the vehicle's steering

various inﬂation adaptors for accessories, such as balls,

bicycle tyres...

Do not exceed a speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) when driving with a

tyre repaired using this type of kit.

compressor for long enough to inﬂate a tyre after a puncture repair

or for inﬂating a small inﬂatable accessory.

the kit to hand.

F

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.

Do not start the compressor before connecting the white pipe

to the tyre valve: the sealant product would be expelled through

the pipe.

Tyre under-inflation detection

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.

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.

2. Inflation

F

Turn the selector A to the "air" position.

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).

Uncoil the black pipe H fully.

Connect the black pipe to the valve of the wheel.

A loss of pressure indicates that the puncture has not been fully

plugged; contact a PEUGEOT dealer or qualiﬁed workshop for

assistance.

F

Remove and stow the kit.

Drive at reduced speed (50 mph [80 km/h] max) limiting the

distance travelled to approximately 120 miles (200 km).

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.

used, it must be replaced.

After use, do not discard the cartridge into the environment, take it

to an authorised waste disposal site or a PEUGEOT dealer.

Do not forget to obtain a new sealant cartridge, available from

PEUGEOT dealers or from a qualiﬁed workshop.

F

Stow the black pipe.

CHECKING TYRE PRESSURES /

INFLATING ACCESSORIES

You can also use the compressor, without injecting any product, to:

-

check or adjust the pressure of your tyres,

-

inﬂate other accessories (balls, bicycle tyres...).

F

Connect the compressor's electrical connector to the vehicle's 12 V

socket.

F

Start the vehicle and let the engine run.

Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inﬂate: switch B

in position "I"; to deﬂate: switch B in position "O" and press

button C), according to the vehicle's tyre pressure label or the

accessory's pressure label.

F

Turn the selector A to the "Air" position.
