Inform the dealership that the tyre has
been repaired using the quick tyre repair
kit. Hand the instruction brochure over to the

cylinder will not be connected to the compressor and
no sealant will be injected.

If the pressure has fallen below 1.8 bar,
do not drive any further: the automatic
Fix&Go Automatic quick tyre repair kit cannot
guarantee the correct hold because the tyre is
too damaged. Contact an Abarth Dealership.
WARNING
❒if at least 1.8 bar pressure is read, restore the correct
pressure (with engine running and handbrake on) and
restart;
❒drive with the utmost care to the nearest Abarth

MAINTENANCE AND CARE
SCHEDULED SERVICING
Correct servicing is essential in guaranteeing a long life
for the car under the best conditions.
This is why Abarth has planned a series of checks and
maintenance operations every 15,000 km.
It is, however, important to remember that scheduled
servicing does not completely cover all the car’s
requirements: even in the initial period before 15,000
km, and then subsequently between one service and
another, ordinary care is always required such as
routine checks involving topping up fluid level, checking
tyre pressures etc...IMPORTANT Scheduled Servicing coupons is specified
by the Manufacturer.
Failure to have them carried out may invalidate the
warranty.
The services can be carried out by any Abarth
Dealership at the appointed times.
If during each operation, in addition to the ones
scheduled, the need arises for further replacements or
repairs, these may only be carried out with the express
agreement of the Customer.
IMPORTANT You are advised to contact an Abarth
Dealership in the event of any minor operating faults,
without waiting for the next service.
