behind a cover at the left-hand end of the dash panel. When the steering
wheel is on the right, the fuses are on the right-hand side of the instrument
panel, behind a cover.
The electric windows are protected by circuit breakers . These reset automat-
ically after a few seconds when the overload (caused for example by frozen
windows) has been corrected.

WARNING
Never “repair” damaged fuses and never replace them with fuses with a
higher rating. Failure to comply could result in fire. This could also cause
damage to other parts of the electrical system.
Note
•If a newly replaced fuse blows again after a short time, the electrical
system must be checked by a qualified workshop as soon as possible.•If you replace a fuse with higher-rating fuse, you could cause damage to
another location in the electrical system.
•Always keep some spare fuses in the vehicle. These are available from
SEAT dealers.Fuses on left side of dash panelFuses
