Removing the pipe and cartridge
Turn the pipe assembly 2 to the left until it contacts the unit. Disconnect the union 1 from the cartridge by turning it a quarter turn anti-clockwise. Extract the pipe assembly 2 , then disconnect the union 3 from the air delivery pipe by turning it a quarter turn anti-clockwise. Remove the pipe assembly 2 . Support the compressor vertically. Unscrew the cartridge 4 from the bottom. To fit the new cartridge and new pipe, carry out these operations in reverse order.
Beware of discharges of fluid. The expiry date of the fluid is indicated on the cartridge. The sealant cartridge is designed for single use; even if only partly used, it must be replaced. After use, do not discard the cartridge into the environment, take it to an authorised waste disposal site or a CITROËN dealer. Do not forget to obtain a new sealant cartridge, available from CITROËN dealers or from a qualified workshop.
Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B in position "I" ; to deflate: switch B in position "O" and press button C ), in accordance with the vehicle's tyre pressure label (located on the left-hand door aperture). A loss of pressure indicates that the puncture has not been fully plugged; contact a CITROËN dealer or qualified workshop for assistance. Remove and stow the kit. Drive at reduced speed (50 mph [80 km/h]
max) limiting the distance travelled to approximately 120 miles (200 km).

Checking / adjusting tyre pressures
You can also use the compressor without injecting any product, to check and if necessary adjust your tyre pressures.
Turn the selector A to the "Air" position. Uncoil the white pipe G fully.
Connect the compressor's electrical connector to the vehicle's 12 V socket. Start the vehicle and let the engine run. Adjust the pressure using the compressor (to inflate: switch B in position "I" ; to deflate: switch B in position "O" and press button C ), according to the vehicle's tyre pressure label. Remove the kit then stow it.
Should the pressure of one or more tyres be adjusted, it is necessary to reinitialise the under-inflation detection system. For more information on Under-inflation detection , refer to the corresponding section.
Connect the pipe to the tyre valve.
