if the pressure is less than 26 psi (1.8
bar), do not continue your journey but see
a Dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership;
if a pressure value of at least 26 psi
(1.8 bar) is detected, restore the correct
pressure (with engine running and
electric parking brake), resume driving
immediately and drive with great care to
a Dedicated Alfa Romeo Dealership.

125) Punctures on the sides of the tyre may
not be repaired. Do not use the Tyre Repair
kit if the tyre was damaged as a result of
being used when underinflated.
126) Wear the protective gloves provided
with the Tyre Repair kit.
127) Apply the adhesive label where it can
be easily seen by the driver as a reminder
08066S0010EM
that the tyre has been treated with the Tyre
Repair Kit. Drive carefully, particularly on
bends. Do not exceed 80 km/h. Avoid sudden
acceleration or braking.
128) You must always indicate that the tyre
was repaired using the Tyre Repair Kit. Give
the booklet to the technicians who will be
handling the tyre that was treated using the
Tyre Repair Kit.
129) Repairs are not possible in the case
of damage to the wheel rim (bad groove
distortion causing air loss). Do not remove
foreign bodies (screws or nails) from the
tyre.
130) Never operate the compressor for
longer than 20 consecutive minutes.
Risk of overheating. The Tyre Repair
Kit is not suitable for definitive repairs,
so the repaired tyres may only be used
temporarily.
