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.
