Information on AdBlue
In vehicles with Selective Catalytic Reduction, a special urea solution 
(AdBlue) is injected into the exhaust gas system in front of the catalytic 
converter to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions.
The consumption of AdBlue depends on individual driving style, the temper-
ature at which the system operates and the outside temperature where the 
vehicle is driven.
AdBlue is kept in an independent tank in the vehicle and should be refilled at 
an official supplier. The AdBlue tank holds about 17 litres.
A message will be displayed on the instrument panel around 2400 km before 
the next service to indicate that AdBlue must be refilled  Ÿpage 302. If you 
ignore this message and do not refill, you will be unable to start the engine 
afterwards  Ÿpage 300.
SEAT recommends contacting a specialist workshop. If you are unable to visit 
a qualified specialist workshop, you should temporarily refill with a minimum 
of 10.0 litres of AdBlue. Only refill using AdBlue expressly approved by SEAT.When the indicators 
 b and  > light simultaneously, there is a fault. SEAT 
recommends visiting the closest qualified workshop.
