Switch off the ignition.

1. Sealing



)
Uncoil the white pipe G
fully.

harmful (e.g. ethylene-glycol,
colophony...) if swallowed and
causes irritation to the eyes.
Keep this product out of the reach of
children.
Do not start the compressor
before connecting the white
pipe to the tyre valve: the
sealant product would be expelled

the puncture.

)
Stop to check the repair and the tyre
pressure using the kit.



)
Switch on the compressor by mov-
ing the switch B
to 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
the pressure is not attained,
this indicates that the tyre is
not repairable; contact a PEUGEOT
dealer or a qualifi ed workshop for as-
sistance.



Tyre under-infl ation detection
If the vehicle is fi tted with tyre
under-infl ation detection, the
under-infl ation warning lamp will re-
main on after the wheel has been re-
paired until the system is reinitialised
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualifi ed
workshop.
