If the tyre-pressure warning has come on in your Alfa Romeo Giulietta (2010–2020) after you’ve adjusted the pressures or changed a wheel, you need to store the new pressures as correct. On the Giulietta that’s a button press followed by a short drive. Here’s how.
When to Reset
- After checking or adjusting the tyre pressures.
- After changing one or more wheels or tyres.
Resetting the System
- Set all four tyres to the correct cold pressures (placard in the driver’s door shut) — the system stores whatever is set.
- Switch the ignition on.
- Press and hold the TPMS reset button for 2 seconds until ‘RESET SAVED’ appears on the display.
- Drive the car for about 20 minutes at a steady speed above 80 km/h (about 50 mph) to complete the relearn.
If the Warning Stays On
- Recheck every tyre — one below spec keeps the warning on and blocks the relearn.
- Do the motorway-speed drive — the Giulietta needs the higher speed (80 km/h+) to finish, unlike some cars.
- Still showing with correct pressures? A sensor may have a flat battery or fault — look up the code on autodtcs.com.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reset the tyre pressure warning on an Alfa Giulietta?
Set the pressures, switch on, hold the TPMS button 2 seconds until ‘RESET SAVED’ shows, then drive about 20 minutes above 80 km/h.
Why does it need such a fast drive?
The Giulietta completes the relearn at higher speed (80 km/h+), so a motorway run finishes it best.
Why won’t the warning clear?
Usually a tyre still below spec, or not enough steady high-speed driving after the button press.
Do I need a tool?
No for a normal reset; a tool is only needed when a sensor is replaced and must be calibrated.
If the warning came on with other lights, decode the code on autodtcs.com.
