Note
•
Depending on weather conditions (cold
or wet), the front lights, the fog
lights, the rear lights and the indicators may be temporarily misted. This has
no influence on the life expectancy of the lighting system. By switching on the
lights, the area through which the beam of light is projected will quickly be
demisted. However, the edges may continue to be misted.
•
Please check at regular intervals that all lighting (especially the exterior
lighting) on your vehicle is functioning properly. This is not only in the interest
of your own safety, but also in that of all other road users.
•
Due to the difficulty in accessing the lamps, any replacement work should
be done by a SEAT dealer. However, th e following is a description of how to
change the lamps except for the fog lights* and interior lamps.
