If the pressure gauge 7
fig. 185 indicates a pressure lower than
1.8 bar / 26 psi 15 minutes after
starting the compressor, switch off the
compressor, disconnect the sealing
fluid tube 4 from the tyre valve and
remove the cartridge 1 from the
compressor fig. 187.
Move the car by approximately 10 m to
distribute the sealant; stop the car
safely, engage the handbrake and use
the black inflation pipe 9 fig. 188 to
reach the required pressure. If also in
this case, the pressure is lower than
1.8 bar / 26 psi 15 minutes after turning
on, do not resume driving but contact a
Fiat Dealership.
After driving for about 8 km / 5 miles,
position the vehicle in a safe and
suitable area and engage the

If the pressure shown is higher than
1.8 bar / 26 psi, restore the pressure
and drive safely to a Fiat Dealership as
soon as possible. If, however, the
pressure is lower than 1.8 bar / 26 psi,
do not resume driving but contact a Fiat
Dealership.
