Description of the kit
The speed limit sticker I must be affixed t o   the   vehicle's   steering   wheel   to   remind  
y

Do
  not   exceed   a   speed   of   50   mph  
(

80 km/h)   when   driving   with   a   tyre

F Switch  on   the   compressor   by   moving  t
he switch B to position "I" until the tyre
pressure
  reaches   2.0   bars.
 T

he   sealant   is   injected   into   the   tyre   under  
p

ressure;   do   not   disconnect   the   pipe   from  
t

he   valve   during   this   operation   (risk   of  
sp

lashing).
If
  after   around   5   to   7   minutes   the  
p

ressure   is   not   attained,   this   indicates  
t

hat   the   tyre   is   not   repairable;   contact  
a

  CITROËN   dealer   or   a   qualified  
w

orkshop   for   assistance. F
 R emove   the   kit   and   screw   the   cap   back   on  t

t

hree   miles   (five   kilometres),   at   reduced  
s

Tyre under-inflation detection
After repair of the tyre, the warning lamp   will   remain   on   until   the   system   is  
r

einitialised.

Checking tyre pressures /
inflating accessories
You can also use the compressor, without injecting   any   product,   to:
-
 
c
heck   or   adjust   the   pressure   of   your   tyres,
-
 
i
nflate   other   accessories   (balls,   bicycle

Driving advice
Distribution of loads
F Distribute  the   load   in   the   trailer   so   that   the h
eaviest   items   are   as   close   as   possible   to t

he   axle   and   the   nose   weight   approaches   the
 m

aximum   permitted   without   exceeding   it.
Air
  density   decreases   with   altitude,   thus  
r

educing   engine   per formance.   Above  
1 0

00 metres,   the   maximum   towed   load   must  
b

e   reduced   by   10 %   for   every   1 000   metres   of  
al

titude.
Side wind
F Take   into   account   the   increased   sensitivity  t
o   side   wind.
Cooling
Towing a trailer on a slope increases the temperature   of   the   coolant.
As
  the   fan   is   electrically   controlled,   its   cooling  
c

apacity   is   not   dependent   on   the   engine   speed.
F
 
T
o   lower   the   engine   speed,   reduce   your  
s

peed.
The
  maximum   towed   load   on   a   long   incline  
d

epends   on   the   gradient   and   the   ambient  
t

emperature.
In
  all   cases,   keep   a   check   on   the   coolant  
t

emperature. F
 
I
f   the   warning   lamp   and   the  
S

TOP
 
warning   lamp   come   on,  
s

top   the   vehicle   and   switch   off  
t

he   engine   as   soon   as   possible.
Braking
Towing a trailer increases the braking distance.
T o   avoid   overheating   of   the   brakes   on   a   long  
m

ountain   type   of   descent,   the   use   of   engine  
b

raking   is   recommended.
Ty r e s
F Check   the   tyre   pressures   of   the   towing  v
ehicle   and   of   the   trailer,   observing   the  
re

commended
 p
ressures.
Lighting
F Check  the   electrical   lighting   and   signalling  o
n   the   trailer.
Refer
 
to
 
the
 
"Technical
 
data"
 
section

When
 
not
 
towing
 
a
 
trailer,
 
remove
 
the
 
q

uickly-detachable
 
tow
 
ball
 
before
 
d

riving. The
  rear   parking   sensors   will   be  
d

eactivated   automatically   if   a   genuine
