Citroen C3: Temporary puncture repair kit / 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.
- Check that the compressor switch is in 8
position "O".
- Fully uncoil the electric cable stowed under
the compressor.
- Connect the compressor's electric plug to the
vehicle's 12 V socket.
- Switch on the ignition.
The tyre inflation
pressures are given on
this label.
Start the compressor by placing the switch at
position "I" and adjust the pressure to the value
shown on the vehicle's tyre pressure label. To
deflate: press the black button located on the
compressor pipe, near the valve connection.
If after 7 minutes the
pressure of 2 bar is
not reached, the tyre is damaged;
contact a CITROËN dealer or a qualified
workshop for assistance.
- Once the correct pressure is reached, put the
switch in position "O".
- Remove the kit and 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 Tyre under-inflation
detection, refer to the corresponding section.
Do not remove any foreign
bodies (e.g.
nail, screw) which have penetrated into
the tyre.
