This kit consists of a compressor and a sealant cartridge.
It allows the temporary repair of a tyre.
You are then able to go to the nearest garage.
It is designed to repair most punctures which could affect the tyre, located on the tyre tread or shoulder.
Its compressor can be used to check and adjust the pressure of the tyre.
Access to the kit
(5-seat version)
The kit is stowed in the boot under the
concertina board. The vehicle's electric system allows the
connection of a compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair or for inflating a small inflatable
accessory.

Tyre under-inflation detection
If the vehicle is fitted with tyre under-
inflation detection, the under-inflation
warning lamp will remain on after the
wheel has been repaired until the
system is reinitialised by a PEUGEOT

Following a puncture
The punctured wheel cannot be stowed
under the vehicle. It must be stowed
in the boot. Use a cover to protect the
inside of the boot.
When driving with the "space-saver"
type spare wheel fitted, do not exceed
50 mph (80 km/h).
Have the tightening of the bolts and the
pressure of the spare wheel checked
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired and
replace it on the vehicle as soon as
possible.
Tyre under-inflation detection
The space-saver type or steel spare
wheel does not have a sensor.
The punctured wheel must be repaired
by a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop.
Snow chains must only be fitted to the
front wheels. Further, they must never
be fitted to a "space-saver" spare
wheel.
Before fitting the snow chains,
interchange the "space-saver" spare
wheel fitted at the front with the wheel
at the rear on the same side.
