DS 3: Temporary puncture repair kit / Checking/adjusting tyre pressures
DS 3 2016-2025 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

Intelligent emergency braking assistance (iEBA)
If the driver brakes, but not sufficiently to avoid
a collision, this system will provide additional
braking, within the limits of the laws of physics.
This assistance will only be provided if the driver
presses the brake pedal.
Active Safety Brake
This function, also called automatic emergency
braking, intervenes following the alerts if the
dr..
Anti-slip regulation (or traction control) optimises
traction by using engine braking and by applying
the brakes on the driving wheels to avoid one
or more wheels spinning. It also enhances the
vehicle's directional stability.
If there is a difference between the vehicle’s
trajectory and the path desired by the driver, the
dynamic stability control system automatically
uses engine braking..
