❒
if after 5 minutes it is still impossi-
ble to reach at least 1.5 bar, disen-
gage compressor from valve and cur-
rent outlet, then move the car forth
for approx. ten metres in order to dis-
tribute the sealing fluid inside the
tyre evenly, then repeat the inflation
operation;
❒
if after this operation it is still im-
possible after 5 minutes to reach at
least 1.8 bar, do not start driving
since the tyre is excessively dam-
aged and the quick tyre repair kit
cannot guarantee suitable sealing,
contact Alfa Romeo Authorized
