Changing a wheel

The temporary tyre repair kit consists
of a compressor and a bottle
(containing a sealant).

Using the kit

Tick the defl ated wheel on the
speed limitation sticker then affi x
the sticker to the vehicle's steering
wheel to remind you that a wheel is
in temporary use.

2.
Clip the bottle 1
on the compressor 2
.

3.
Connect the bottle 1
to the valve of
the tyre to be repaired.

it to the bottle.

5.
Connect the power lead to one of
the vehicle's 12 V sockets.

6.

pressing button A
until the tyre
pressure reaches 2.0 bars. If this
pressure cannot be reached,
the tyre cannot be repaired.

7.
Remove and store the compressor.

8.

to fi ll the puncture.

9.
Adjust the pressure using the
compressor in accordance with the
recommendation for the vehicle and
check that the leak is fi lled correctly
(no further loss of pressure).

10.
Drive at reduced speed (50 mph
[80 km/h]). The tyre must be
examined and repaired by a
specialist as soon as possible. After use, the bottle can be stored in
a plastic bag, supplied in the kit, to
avoid staining your vehicle with traces
of fl uid.
Warning: the bottle of gel contains
ethylene-glycol, a product which
is harmful if swallowed and which
causes irritation to the eyes.
Keep it out of reach of children.
After use, do not discard the bottle into
the environment, take it to a CITROËN
dealer or to an specialised waste
disposal site.
Replacement bottles of sealant are
available from CITROËN dealers.

PUNCTURE REPAIR KIT

The kit is located in one of the two
storage compartments located under
the front seats.

Changing a bulb


CHANGING A BULB


Ty p e A

All glass bulb: pull gently
as it is fi tted by pressure.


High pressure washing


Open the bonnet. To access the bulbs,
reach behind the headlamp unit.
Carry out the operations in reverse
order to refi t each bulb and check that
the bonnet is closed securely.
Ty p e C

Halogen bulb: release the
retaining spring from its
housing.
Ty p e B

Bayonet bulb: press

anticlockwise.

Halogen bulbs must be changed
with the headlamp off. Wait a few
minutes (risk of serious burns).
Do not touch the bulb directly with your
fi ngers, use lint-free cloths.
It is normal for condensation to form
inside the headlamps. Regular use of
the vehicle eliminates this misting. The bulbs must be changed with
the ignition off or with the battery
disconnected. Wait approximately
3 minutes after changing the bulb
before reconnecting the battery.
Check that the lamps operate correctly
after each operation.
When using this type of washing
on stubborn dirt, do not persist on
the headlamps, the lamps and their
edges to avoid damaging their coating
and seals.


Types of bulb

Various types of bulb are fi tted to your
vehicle. To remove them:

Ty p e D

Light emitting diode
(LED): for replacement
of the daytime running
lamps, contact a
