Puncture kit
The puncture repair kit is located in the boot.
The puncture repair kit is a com-plete system including a compres-sor and a setting product.
Using the puncture repair kit1. Remove the sticker found in the kit, then stick it on the steering wheel to remind you that you are driving with a w h e e l t h a t i s o n l y fi t f o r t e m p o -rary use and that your speed is therefore limited.2. C o n n e c t t h e fl a s k 1 to the valve of the tyre to be repaired.3. Connect the electric cable to one of the vehicle's 12V sock-ets.
4. With the engine running, start the compressor by pressing on button A until the tyre pressure reaches 2,0 bars. If you cannot reach a pressure of 2 bars, the tyre is not repairable.5. Remove and store the com-pressor.6. Drive off immediately, for a few miles at reduced speed, to allow the puncture repair to set.7. Adjust the tyre pressure using the compressor according to the recommendations for the vehicle, and check that there is no air escaping (no loss of pressure). If you cannot reach a pressure of 2 bars, the tyre is not repairable.8. Do not exceed 110 km/h (68 mph). The tyre must be exam-ined and repaired by a profes-sional as soon as possible.

Return the ground clearance to the normal position. See chap-ter “Hydractive III+ Suspen-sion”.7. Ensure the tyre pressure is c o r r e c t ( s e e “ V e h i c l e i d e n t i fi c a -tion”) and have the balancing checked.

Such wheels have tyre pressure sensors. It is essential to have repairs carried out by a CITROËN dealer.
Anti-theft bolts
Each wheel is equipped with one anti-theft bolt.
To remove it1. Remove the protector using tool 3.2. Use the anti-theft socket with the handle.
