► Fully uncoil the electric cable stowed under
the compressor.
► Connect the compressor's electric plug to the
vehicle's 12 V socket.
► Affix the speed limit sticker.
The speed limit sticker must be affixed
inside the vehicle in the area close to the
driver, to remind them that a wheel is in
temporary use.
The tyre inflation pressures are given on
this label.
► Switch the ignition on.
► Switch on the compressor by moving the
switch to position "I" until the tyre pressure
reaches 2 bar. 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 7 minutes, the
pressure of 2 bar is not reached, this
indicates that the tyre is not repairable;
contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop for assistance.
► Move the switch to position "O".
► Disconnect the compressor's electric plug
from the vehicle's 12 V socket.
► Remove the kit.
► Refit the cap on the valve.
► Remove and store the bottle of sealant.
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 PEUGEOT dealer
or an authorised waste disposal site.
Do not forget to obtain a new bottle of
sealant, available from a PEUGEOT dealer or
a qualified workshop.
In the event of a breakdown
► Drive immediately for approximately 3 miles
(5 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.
With a tyre repaired using this type of kit,
do not exceed a speed of 50 mph
(80 km/h) and do not drive more than
125 miles (200 km).
Contact a PEUGEOT dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the tyre changed.
Checking/adjusting tyre
pressures
The compressor can be used, without injecting
sealant, to check and, if necessary, adjust the
tyre pressures.
► Remove the valve cap from the tyre and keep
it in a clean place.
► Uncoil the pipe stowed under the compressor.
► Screw the pipe onto the valve and tighten
firmly.
