pressure
reaches 2.0 bars.
T
he sealant is injected into the tyre under
p
ressure; do not disconnect the pipe from
t

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

Fitting the "space-saver"
spare wheel
If your vehicle is fitted with alloy wheels, when tightening the bolts on fitting, it
i
s normal to notice that the washers
d
o not come into contact with the
"
space-saver" spare wheel. The wheel
i
s secured by the conical sur face of
e
ach bolt.
After changing a wheel
To correctly store the punctured wheel in the boot ( not in the location for the
space-saver wheel ),
first remove the
c
entral cover.
When
using the "space-saver" type
s
pare wheel, do not exceed 50 mph
(
80 km/h).
Have
the tightening of the bolts and the
p
ressure of the spare wheel checked
b
y a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
w
orkshop without delay.
Have
the punctured wheel repaired
a
nd refitted to the vehicle as soon as
p
ossible.
