Inflation Procedure - Alfa Romeo Giulia 2024 Owner's Manual

NOTE:
The sealant is effective with external temperatures of
between -40°F (-40°C) and 122°F (50°C). The sealant
has an expiration date.
To use the Tire Service Kit, proceed as follows:
1. Stop the vehicle in a position where you can repair
the tire safely. You should be as far as possible from
the side of the road, and in a position that is not
dangerous for oncoming traffic. Activate the Hazard
Warning Flashers, remove the safety triangle from
the trunk, and place it at a suitable distance from
the vehicle to make other drivers aware of your
presence.
2. Verify that the valve stem (on the wheel with the
deflated tire) is in a position that is near to the
ground. This will allow the tire service kit hoses to
reach the valve stem and keep the tire repair kit flat
on the ground.
3. Place the gear selector to PARK (P).
4. Apply the Electric Park Brake and cycle the engine
OFF.
