The compass does not require calibration in vehicles for which the navigation
system was mounted at the factory. The option compass disappears.
The compass in vehicles in which the navigation system was not mounted at
the factory, is permanently and automatically calibrated. If electronic or metal
accessories (mobile phone, television) are subsequently mounted in the
vehicle, the compass should be recalibrated manually.
Adjusting the magnetic zone
xSwitch the ignition on.
xSelect the Settings menu followed by the option Compass and Zone.
xSelect the magnetic zone corresponding to the position of the vehicle
Ÿpage 67, fig. 37.
xAdjust and confirm the magnetic zone (1-15).
Calibrating compass
To calibrate the compass you must be in one of the valid magnetic zones with
sufficient space to be able to trace a circumference with the vehicle.
xSwitch the ignition on.
xSelect the Settings menu followed by the option Compass and Calibrate.
xConfirm the message Describe a complete circumference to calibrate the
compass with and then trace a complete circumference driving at approx-
imately 10 km/h (6 mph).
When the corresponding cardinal point is displayed, the calibration is
complete.
Service interval display
The inspection display appears on the instrument panel Ÿpage 64, fig. 36
.SEAT makes a difference between services with engine oil change (Mainte-
nance Service) and services without engine oil change (Inspection Service).
The service interval display only gives information for service dates which
involve an engine oil change. The dates of the remaining services (for
example, the next Inspection Service or change of brake fluid) are listed on
the label attached to the door strut, or even in the Maintenance Programme.
In vehicles with Services established by time or mileage, the service intervals
are already pre-defined.
In vehicles with LongLife Service, the intervals are determined individually.
Technical progress has made it possible to considerably reduce servicing
requirements. The technology used by SEAT ensures that your vehicle only
has an maintenance service when it is necessary. To establish when the Main-
tenance Service is due (max. 2 years), the vehicle's conditions of use and
individual driving styles are considered. The service pre-warning first appears
20 days before the date established for the corresponding service. The kilo-
metres remaining until the next service are always rounded up to the nearest
100 km and the remaining time is given in complete days. The current service
message cannot be viewed until 500 km after the last service. Prior to this
only lines are visible on the display.
Inspection reminder
When the Service date is approaching, when the ignition is switched on a
Service reminder is displayed.
In vehicles without text messages, a spanner is displayed on the instrument
panel
> with a figure given in km. The number of kilometres shown is the
maximum number that may be driven until the next service. After a few
seconds,the display mode changes. A clock symbol appears and the number
of days until the next service appointment is due.
In vehicles with text messages, Service in --- km or --- days is displayed on the
instrument panel .
