• Depressions under vehicle for jack:
– Depressions in the side member at front and rear indicate the
points at which the claw of jack must be fitted to the vertical rib of
the side member
⇒arrows,fig. 177.
– Wind jack arm up by turning the crank in the spindle until the
jack just goes under the vehicle.
– The claw of the jack must fit round the vertical rib on the side
member so that the jack cannot slip when vehicle is lifted
⇒
fig. 178.– If the ground is soft, place a large strong piece of packing under
the jack base plate.
– Align jack and at same time wind claw up further until it contacts
the vehicle.
– Lift vehicle until the wheel is just clear of the ground.
K
Removing and fitting the wheel
– Remove the wheel bolts, place them on a clean surface (hub cap,
cloth) next to the jack and take the wheel off.
– Fit spare wheel and lightly tighten all bolts. The wheel bolts must
be clean and easy to turn – do not under any circumstances use
grease or oil!
– Lower vehicle and fully tighten bolts in diagonal sequence.
– Refit the wheel trim.
– Place and secure the defective wheel in the spare wheel bracket

214If and when
• The defective wheel should be repaired as soon as possible.
Notes for tyres where the direction of rotation is stipulated
It is imperative that the designated direction of rotation for the tyre
treads (which can be determined from the arrow on the side of the
tyre) be kept to. The best tyre performance i.e. in aquaplaning,
road adhesion, noise and wear are then guaranteed.
If a spare wheel has to be fitted against the stipulated direction of
rotation, this measure should only be a temporary one. The best
possible tyre performance concerning aquaplaning, noise level and
wear are no longer fully guaranteed.
We recommend that you take this into account, especially in wet
weather, and adjust your speed to the driving conditions.
In order to use the principle of the direction of rotation fully again,
the faulty tyre must be replaced as soon as possible.
If necessary, mount the tyre fitted against the direction of rotation
in the stipulated direction.

The Alhambra’s alloy wheels have anti-theft wheel bolts. The
special adapter required for these bolts is contained in the vehicle
tool kit.
The procedure for changing a wheel is as follows:
• First press the adapter
2as far as possible into the star shaped
depression on the anti-theft wheel bolt1⇒ fig. 179.
• Push the wheel spanner (from the vehicle tools) as far as
possible onto the adapter
2and loosen/tighten the wheel bolt as
necessary

• We recommend always carrying the adaptor in the space provided for it in
the tool box⇒fig. 180
• Should you lose the adapter
⇒fig. 1792, SEAT Service can supply you
with a new one with reference to the code card (also in vehicle tools).

The individual current circuits are protected by fuses.
All electric windows are protected together via an automatic fuse
which breaks the circuit when overloaded (e.g. windows frozen)
and completes the circuit again after a few seconds.
It is advisable to always carry a few spare fuses on the vehicle.

216If and when
Changing a fuse
Please note the warnings from the "Engine compartment" chapter
and following ones, before undergoing any work on the engine or
engine compartment.
The fuses are located behind a cover in the instrument panel
⇒
fig. 45 andfig. 181.
In some models, there are additional fuses in the engine
compartment, for example on top of the battery.
• Switch off ignition and the component concerned.
• Take cover off
⇒fig. 181
• In the cover or in the fuse box you will find plastic pliers* to
remove the fuses.
• You will find the fuse layout on a label in the fuse box cover.• Remove the appropriate fuse.
• Replace blown fuse – can be recognised by the burnt metal strip
– with a fuse of same amperage.
• Replace the cover.
• If the newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time, the
electrical system must be checked by a Technical Service Centre as
soon as possible.

General notes
In most cases it is no longer possible to change a bulb without
having to remove other vehicle parts. This is particularly the case
for bulbs which can only be accessed through the engine
compartment. Special skills are needed for this.
For this reason, the bulbs should always be changed by Technical
Service Centre or qualified personnel.
