DS 3: Temporary puncture repair kit / Checking/adjusting tyre pressures
DS 3 2016-2024 Owners Manual
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
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 the ignition on.
- 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 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.
- Refit the cap on the valve.
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.
Park the vehicle without obstructing traffic
