Te m p o r a ry puncture repair
kit
This kit is a complete system, consisting of acompressor and a sealant car tridge, for the
temporary repair of a tyre.

Under-inflation detection

This system continuously monitors thepressures in the tyres and aler ts you in theevent of an under-inflated tyre.


Blind spot sensors

In cer tain driving conditions, this system
detects the presence of vehicles in the blind
spots. You are aler ted by the illumination of a
warning lamp in the corresponding mirror.

Monitoring
Under-inflationfixed.The pressure in one or more wheelsis too low. Check the pressure of the tyres as soon as possible.
This check should preferably be carried out when the
tyres are cold.
You must reinitialise the system after the adjustment
of one or more tyre pressures and after changing one or more wheels.

Have the system checked by a CITROËN dealer or a
qualified workshop.

Safety








Ty r e u n d e r - i nfl ation detection
The system continuously monitors thepressures on the four tyres, once the vehicle is moving.
It compares the information given by the four
wheel speed sensors with reference values,
which must be reinitialised ever
y time the tyre pressures are adjusted or a wheel changed. The system triggers an aler t as soon as it
detects a drop in the inflation pressure of one
or more tyres.
The under-inflation detection system does not replace the vigilance or theresponsibility of the driver. This system does not avoid the need tocheck the tyre pressures (including the spare wheel) every month as well as before a long journey. Driving with under-inflated tyres impairsroad holding, extends braking distances and causes premature tyre wear,particularly under arduous condition(high loading, high speed, long journey). S
ystem which automatically checks the pressure of the tyres while driving.

The inflation pressures defined for your vehicle can be found on the tyrepressure label (see the "Identificationmarkings" section). Tyre pressures should be checkedwhen the tyres are "cold" (vehicle stopped for 1 hour or after a journey of less than 6 miles (10 km) at moderatespeeds). Other wise, add 0.3 bar to the pressures shown on the label.

Driving with under-inflated tyresincreases fuel consumption.

Safety

Under-inflation alert
Reinitialisation
This is given by fixed illumination of
this warning lamp, accompanied byan audible signal and, depending on
equipment, the display of a message.
A label reminds you of the need to reinitialise
the system every time one or more tyre
pressure is adjusted, and after changing one or
more wheels.
)Reduce speed immediately, avoidexcessive steering movements and sudden
braking .)Stop the vehicle as soon as it is safe
to do so.
) In the event of a puncture, use the
temporary puncture repair kit or the spare
wheel (depending on equipment),or ) if you have a compressor, such as the one in the temporary puncture repair kit, check
the pressures of the four tyres when cold, or )
if it is not possible to make this check
immediately, drive carefully at reduced speed.



The loss of pressure detected does not always cause visible bulging of the tyre. Do not satisfy yourself with just a visual check. The aler t is maintained until the system is reinitialised.

226
Safety


Reinitialisation of the system is done with the ignition on and the vehicle stationary.
From the secondary page of the " Drivingassistance" menu:
)Press " Under-inflation initialisation".
)
Confirm the instruction by pressing "Yes".


The new pressure settings registered are considered to be reference values by the
system.


Operating fault

The flashing and then fixed illumination of the
under-inflation warning lamp accompanied
by illumination of the "ser vice" warning lamp
indicates a fault with the system.
In this case, under-inflation monitorin
g of the
tyres is no longer assured.
Have the system checked by a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop.

Before doing anything to the system,the pressures of the four tyres must bechecked and the system reinitialised.

The under-inflation aler t can only beconsidered reliable if reinitialisation of the system is done with the the four tyrepressures correctly set.



Snow chains
The system does not have to be reinitialised after fitting or removingsnow chains.


Before reinitialising the system, ensure that the pressures of the four tyres arecorrect for the use of the vehicle and inline with the recommendations on thetyre pressure label.
The under-inflation detection systemdoes not give a warning if a pressure isincorrect at the time of reinitialisation.

Description of the kit

Practical information
)Switch on the compressor by moving
the switch Bto 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).



If after around 5 to 7 minutes thepressure is not attained, this indicatesthat the tyre is not repairable; contacta CITROËN dealer or a qualifiedworkshop for assistance.


)
Remove the kit and screw the cap back on
the white pipe.
Take care to avoid stainin
g your vehicle
with traces of fluid. Keep the kit to hand.
) Drive immediately for approximately
three miles (five kilometres), at reducedspeed (between 15 and 35 mph (20 and60 km/h)), to plug the puncture.) Stop to check the repair and the tyre
pressure using the kit.



Tyre under-infl ationdetection

After repair of the tyre, the warning lamp will remain on until the system isreinitialised.

Practical information

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...).
)Turn the selector A
to the "A ir "position.)Uncoil the black pipe Hfully. )Connect the black pipe to the
valve of the wheel or accessory.
If necessary, fit one of the adaptors
supplied with the kit first.

)
Connect the compressor's electricalconnector to the vehicle's 12 V socket. )
Star t the vehicle and let the engine run.)
Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch Bin position "I"; todeflate: switch Bin position "O"
and pressbutton C ), according to the vehicle's tyre
pressure label or the accessory's pressure label.) Remove the kit then stow it.


Should the pressure of one or moretyres be adjusted, it is necessary to reinitialise the tyre pressures (see the "Under-inflation detection" section).
