E.Compartment housing a cable with an
adaptor for a 12
V socket.
F. Sealant cartridge.
G. White pipe with cap for repair and inflation.
H. Speed limit sticker.
The vehicle's electrical system allows the
connection of the compressor for long
enough to inflate a tyre after a puncture
repair.
Only use the two 12 V sockets, located at the
front, to connect your compressor.
Repair and sealing
procedure
► Park the vehicle without obstructing any
traffic and apply the parking brake.
►
Follow the safety instructions (hazard
warning lamps, warning triangle, wearing high
visibility vest, etc.) according to the legislation in
force in the country where you are driving.
► Switch off the ignition.► Turn the selector A to the "Repair"
position.
►
Check that switch
B is in position " O".
Avoid removing any foreign bodies which
have penetrated the tyre.
► 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 electrical plug to
the vehicle's 12 V socket.
► Affix the speed li mit sticker.
The speed limit sticker must be secured
to the interior of the vehicle in the driver's
field of vision, to remind you that a wheel is in
temporary use.
► Start the vehicle and leave the engine
running.
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 switch
B
to position I until the tyre pressure reaches
2.0 bars. The sealant product is injected under
pressure into the tyre; do not disconnect the
pipe from the valve during this operation (risk of
blowback).
If after approximately seven minutes this
pressure is not reached, this indicates
that the tyre is not repairable; contact a
CITROËN dealer or a qualified workshop for
assistance.
►
Remove the kit and screw the cap back on
the white pipe.
Take care to avoid contaminating
the vehicle with traces of fluid. Keep the kit to
hand.
Take care, the sealant product is harmful if swallowed and causes irritation to the
eyes.
Keep this product out of the reach of children.
The use-by date of the fluid is marked on the
bottle.
After use, do not discard the bottle in
standard waste, take it to a CITROËN dealer
or an authorised waste disposal site.

In the event of a breakdown
8Refit the spare wheel in the carrier
► Position the wheel facing the carrier.
► Progressively return the wheel to the carrier
by pushing alternately at the left and right until it
is clear of the hook fixing area.
►
Engage the carrier on the hook, then tighten
the bolt using the wheelbrace
until the bolt is fully
tightened.
Tyre in the carrier
You can change the size of the tyre on the spare
wheel by following the instructions below.
Original tyre
size XS-M
XL
215/65 R16 Placing a 225 wheel in the carrier is prohibited. There is no
restriction.
215/60 R17
215/60 R17
M&S
225/55 R17 Placing a 215 wheel in the
carrier is not
recommended (risk of noise).
A punctured tyre of size 215 or 225 can be placed in the carrier.
Removing a wheel
Parking the vehicle
Immobilise the vehicle where it does
not obstruct traffic: the ground must be level,
stable and non-slippery.
With a manual gearbox, engage first gear
then switch off the ignition to block the
wheels.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector in position P then switch off the
ignition to block the wheels.
With a drive selector, place the gear selector
in position P then switch off the ignition to
block the wheels.
Apply the parking brake, unless it is
programmed to automatic mode (for an
electric parking brake), and check that the
indicator lamp lights up on
the instrument
panel.
Ensure that the occupants have left the
vehicle and are located in a safe place.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised using a
jack; use an axle stand.
With an electric parking brake, place a chock
against the wheel diagonally opposite to the
one being replaced.
► With a steel wheel, remove the bolt cover
using tool 3
or the wheel trim by hand.
►
With an alloy wheel, remove the cover from
each of the bolts using tool 3
.
►
If the vehicle is so equipped, fit security bolt
socket
4 to wheelbrace 1 to slacken the security
bolt.
►
Slacken
(without removing) the other wheel
bolts using just wheelbrace 1.

In the event of a breakdown
Referring to the relevant section, reinitialise
certain equipment:
–
Remote control key or electronic key
(depending on version).
–
Electric windows.
–
Date and time.
–
Preset radio stations.
The Stop & Start system may not be operational during the trip following the
first engine start.
In this case, the system will only be available
again after a continuous period with the
vehicle immobilised, the duration of which
depends on the exterior temperature and the
state of charge of the battery (up to about 8
hours).
Towing the vehicle
Procedure for having your vehicle towed or
for towing another vehicle using a removable
mechanical device.
General recommendations
Observe the legislation in force in the
country where you are driving.
Check that the towing vehicle is heavier than
the towed vehicle.
The driver must remain at the wheel of the
towed vehicle and must have a valid driving
licence.
When towing a vehicle with all four wheels on
the ground, always use an approved towbar;
ropes and straps are prohibited.
The towing vehicle must move off gently.
When the vehicle is towed with its engine
off, there is no longer braking and steering
assistance.
A professional recovery service must
be called in the following cases:
–
broken down on a motorway or main road;
–
not possible to put the gearbox into neutral,
unlock the steering, or release the parking
brake;
–
not possible to tow a vehicle with an
automatic gearbox, with the engine running;
– towing with only two wheels on the ground;
– four-wheel drive vehicle;
–
no approved towbar available.
Before towing the vehicle, it is essential
to put the vehicle in free-wheeling mode.
For more information on Free-wheeling, refer
to the corresponding section.
Electric motor
An electric vehicle cannot under any
circumstances be used to tow another
vehicle.
However, it may be used, for example, to exit
a rut.
With a manual gearbox, place the gear
lever in neutral.
With an automatic gearbox, place the gear
selector in position N.
Failure to adhere to this instruction may lead
to damage to some braking components and
the lack of braking assistance on restarting
the engine.

Failure to observe this instruction could
result in damage to certain components
(e.g. braking, transmission) and to the
absence of braking assistance the next time
the engine is started.
Never tow the vehicle with the driving
wheels on the ground and the engine off.
►
Unlock the steering and release the parking
brake.
►
Switch on the hazard warning lamps on both
vehicles in accordance with the legislation in
