Uncoil the white pipe G fully. Unscrew the cap from the white pipe. Connect the white pipe to the valve of the tyre to be repaired.
Connect the compressor's electric plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket. Start the vehicle and leave the engine running.
Take care, this product is harmful 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 through the pipe.
Switch on the compressor by moving 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 CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop for assistance.

In the event of a breakdown
Connect the compressor's electric plug to the vehicle's 12 V socket. Start the vehicle again and leave the engine running.
As soon as possible, go to a CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop. You must inform the technician that you have used this kit. After inspection, the technician will advise you on whether the tyre can be repaired or if it must be replaced.
Remove the kit and screw the cap back on the white pipe. Take care to avoid staining your vehicle with traces of fluid. Keep the kit to hand. Drive immediately for approximately three miles (five kilometres), at reduced speed (between 12 and 37 mph (20 and 60 km/h)), to plug the puncture. Stop to check the repair and the tyre pressure using the kit.

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.
