If the vehicle is equipped with an emer-
gency spare wheel, it will not have a
sensor. When it is fitted to the vehicle,
the message “ Tyre pressure sensors
absent” is displayed on the instrument
panel.
Replacing wheels/tyres
This system requires specific equip -
ment (wheels, tyres, sensors, etc.).
Contact an approved dealer to replace
the tyres and to find out about avail -
able accessories compatible with the

Tyre inflation kit
tyre Pressure KIt (1/3)
The kit is only approved for
inflating the tyres of the ve-
hicle originally equipped
with the kit.
It must never be used to inflate
the tyres of another vehicle, or any
other inflatable object (rubber ring,
rubber boat, etc.).
Avoid spillage on skin when han -
dling the repair liquid bottle. If drop-
lets do leak out, rinse them off with
plenty of water.
Keep the repair kit away from chil -
dren.
Do not dispose of the empty bottle
in the countryside. Return it to your
approved dealer or to a recycling or-
ganisation.
The bottle has a limited service
life which is indicated on its label.
Check the expiry date.
Contact an approved dealer to re -
place the inflation tube and repair
product bottle.
a
B
The kit repairs tyres when
tread A has been dam -
aged by objects smaller
than 4 mm. It cannot repair
all types of puncture, such as cuts
larger than 4 mm, or cuts in tyre
sidewall B.
Ensure also that the wheel rim is in
good condition.
Do not pull out the foreign body
causing the puncture if it is still in
the tyre.
Do not attempt to use the
inflation kit if the tyre has
been damaged as a result
of driving with a puncture.
You should therefore carefully check
the condition of the tyre sidewalls
before any operation.
Driving with underinflated, flat or
punctured tyres can be dangerous
and may make the tyre impossible
to repair.
this repair is temporary
A tyre which has been punctured
should always be inspected (and re-
paired, where possible) as soon as
possible by a specialist.
When taking a tyre which has been
repaired using this kit to be replaced,
you must inform the specialist.
When driving, vibration may be felt
due to the presence of the repair
product injected into the tyre.

Depending on the vehicle, remove the
central partition in the storage compart-
ment to access the inflation kit.
Open the kit, remove caps 1 and 3 (the
cap must not be removed from the
bottle) then screw bottle 2 to its base 3.
w ith the engine running and the
parking brake applied,
– unscrew the valve cap on the wheel
concerned and screw inflation
adapter 6 onto the valve;
– connect adapter 8 to the accessories
socket on the dashboard of the vehi-
cle;
– press switch 5 to inflate the tyre to
the recommended pressure (check
the label affixed to the edge of the
driver’s door);
– after a maximum of 5 minutes, stop
inflating and read the pressure (on
pressure gauge 4);
n ote: while the bottle is emptying
(approximately 30 seconds), pres -
sure gauge 4 will briefly indicate a
pressure of 6 bar, then the pressure
will drop.

2– adjust the pressure: to increase
it, continue inflating with the kit, to
reduce it, turn button 7 located on
the inflation adapter.
If a minimum pressure of 1.8 bar is
not reached after 15 minutes, repair
is not possible; do not drive the ve-
hicle but contact an approved dealer.
Depending on the vehicle, in the event
of a puncture, use the kit located under -
neath the luggage compartment carpet.
Before using this kit, park
the vehicle at a sufficient
distance from traffic, switch
on the hazard warning
lights, apply the handbrake, ask all
passengers to leave the vehicle and
keep them away from traffic.
If the vehicle is parked on
the hard shoulder, you must
warn other road users of
your vehicle’s presence
with a warning triangle or with other
devices as per the legislation apply-
ing to the country you are in.

– affix driving recommendation label 9
to the dashboard where it can easily
be seen by the driver;
– store the kit;
– after the first inflation procedure the
tyre will still be leaking; it is vital to
drive in order to plug the hole;
– start immediately and drive at be -
tween 12 and 36 mph (20 and
60 km/h) to distribute the product
evenly throughout the tyre, stopping
after a distance of 2 miles (3 kilome-
tres) to check the pressure;
– If the pressure is above 1.3 bar but
lower than the recommended pres -
sure, readjust it (refer to the label
affixed to the edge of the driver ’s
door), otherwise contact an ap -
proved dealer: repair is not possible.
n ote: after using the inflation kit, you
should visit an approved Dealer to re -
place the inflation hose and the bottle
of repair product.Precautions when using the
kit
The kit should not be operated for more
than 15 consecutive minutes.
Nothing should be placed
around the driver ’s feet
as such objects may slide
under the pedals during
sudden braking manoeuvres and
obstruct their use.

Once the tyre is inflated correctly:
– stop using the kit;
– close the integrated cap on the bottle
again;
– disconnect adapter 8;
Following repair with the kit,
do not travel further than
120 miles (200 km). In addi -
tion, reduce your speed and
under no circumstances exceed
48 mph (80 km/h). The sticker,
which you must affix in a prominent
position on the dashboard, reminds
you of this.
Depending on the country or local
legislation, a tyre repaired with the
inflation kit may need to be replaced.
Please be aware that a
poorly tightened or miss -
ing valve cap can make the
tyres less airtight and lead
to pressure loss.
Always use valve caps identical to
those fitted originally and tighten
them fully.
