Temporary puncture repair kit
This kit consists of a compressor and a sealant cartridge. It allows the temporary repair of a tyre. temporary repair of a tyre. temporary repair You are then able to go to the nearest garage.
The vehicle's electric system allows the connection of the compressor for long enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture repair.
Tyre under-infl ation 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 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.
Access to the kit
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.
This kit is installed in the storage box, under the boot floor.
