Repair procedure

1. Sealing

F Uncoil the white pipe G

fully.

F

Unscrew the cap from the white pipe.

F Connect the white pipe to the valve of the

tyre to be repaired.

F

Connect the compressor's electric plug to

the vehicle's 12 V socket.

F

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.

Avoid removing any foreign bodies
which have penetrated into the tyre.

Do not start the compressor before
connecting the white pipe to the tyre
valve: the sealant product would be
expelled through the pipe.

F

Switch off the ignition.

F Turn the selector A to the

"sealant" position.

F

Check that the switch B is in position "O".

288

In the event of a breakdown

Spacetourer-VP_en_Chap08_En-cas-de-panne_ed01-2016

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.

F

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).

F

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.

2. Inflation

F Turn the selector A to the "Air"

position.

F

Uncoil the black pipe H fully.

F

Connect the black pipe to the valve of the

wheel.

F Drive immediately for approximately

three miles (five kilometres), at reduced
speed (between 15 and 35 mph (20 and
60 km/h)), to plug the puncture.

F

Stop to check the repair and the tyre

pressure using the kit.

289

In the event of a breakdown

Spacetourer-VP_en_Chap08_En-cas-de-panne_ed01-2016

F

Connect the compressor's electric plug to

the vehicle's 12 V socket.

F

Start the vehicle again and leave the

engine running.

F

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.

F

Remove and stow the kit.

F

Drive at reduced speed (50 mph

[80 km/h] max) limiting the distance
travelled to approximately 120 miles
(200 km).

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.

Removing the cartridge

F

Stow the black pipe.

F

Detach the angled base from the white pipe.

F

Support the compressor vertically.

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.

F

Unscrew the cartridge from the bottom.

Checking /adjusting tyre
pressures

You can also use the compressor without
injecting any product, to check and if necessary
adjust your tyre pressures.

F Turn the selector A to the "Air"

position.

F

Connect the compressor's electrical

connector to the vehicle's 12 V socket.

F

Start the vehicle and let the engine run.

F

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.

F

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.

F

Uncoil the black pipe H fully.

F

F Slacken

(without removing) the other

wheel bolts using just the wheelbrace 1.

F

Position the foot of the jack on the ground,

ensuring that it is directly below the
vehicle's jacking point A or B, the one
closest to the wheel to be changed.

Removing a wheel

Parking the vehicle

Immobilise the vehicle where it does not
block traffic: the ground must be level,
stable and not slippery.

Do not use:
- the jack for any other purpose than

lifting the vehicle,

- a jack other than the one supplied

by the manufacturer.

If your vehicle has a manual gearbox,
engage first gear then switch off the
ignition to block the wheels.

If your vehicle has an automatic
gearbox, place the gear selector at
position P

then switch off the ignition to

block the wheels.

If your vehicle has an electronic
gearbox, place the gear selector at
position A

then switch off the ignition to

block the wheels.

Apply the parking brake and check that
the warning lamp is on in the instrument
panel.
The occupants must get out of the
vehicle and wait where they are safe.
Never go underneath a vehicle raised
using a jack; use an axle stand.

Ensure that the jack is stable. If the ground is slippery or loose, the jack may slip or drop -
Risk of injury!
Ensure that the jack is positioned only at one of the jacking points A or B under the vehicle,
making sure that the vehicle's contact surface is centred on the head of the jack. Otherwise
there is a risk of damage to the vehicle and/or of the jack dropping - Risk of injury!

F Remove the bolts and store them in a clean

place.

F

Remove the wheel.

F

Extend the jack 2, using the hand wheel, until its head comes into contact with the jacking

point A or B used, with the contact surface A or B

on the vehicle correctly engaged with the

central part of the head of the jack.

F

Raise the vehicle using the wheelbrace 1, until there is sufficient space between the wheel and

the ground to admit the spare (not punctured) wheel easily.

by a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop without delay.
Have the punctured wheel repaired
and refitted to the vehicle as soon as
possible.

If your vehicle has tyre under-inflation
detection, check the tyre pressures and
reinitialise the system.

If fitted to your vehicle, contact a CITROËN
dealer or a qualified workshop for the
replacement of this type of LED lamp and light
guide.
A replacement kit for the LEDs is available from
CITROËN dealers.

or abrasive cloth, nor with a
detergent or solvent product,

F

use a sponge and soapy water or a

pH neutral product,

F

when using a high pressure washer

on persistent marks, do not keep
the lance directed towards the
lamps or their edges for too long,
so as not to damage their protective
coating and seals.

Changing a bulb should only be done
after the headlamp has been switched
off for several minutes (risk of serious
burns).
F Do not touch the bulb directly with

your fingers, use a lint-free cloth.

It is imperative to use only anti-
ultraviolet (UV) type bulbs to avoid
damaging the headlamp.
Always replace a failed bulb with a
new bulb with the same type and
specification.

-

Push the repeater towards the rear and
disengage it.

- When refitting, engage the repeater towards

the front and then bring it towards the rear.

Amber coloured bulbs (direction indicators and
side repeaters) must be replaced with bulbs of
identical specification and colour.
