Warning of high voltage label
There is a label close to the bonnet lock which warns of high voltage in the
vehicle electrical installation.
Warning relating to the City Safety Assist system laser sensor
There are some warning and information signs on the City Safety Assist sys-
tem laser sensor ⇒ Fig. 132. 
Using your vehicle in other countries and continents
The vehicle is manufactured at the factory for use in a particular country in
accordance with the national legislation in force at the time of manufacture.
If the vehicle is sold in another country or used in another country for an ex-
tended period of time, the applicable legislation of that country should be
observed.
It may be necessary to fit or remove certain pieces of equipment or to deac-
tivate certain functions. Service work may also be affected. This is particu-
larly true if the vehicle is used in a different climate for an extended period
of time.
As there are different types of frequency bands around the world, you may
find that the radio system or the Portable Navigation System (supplied by
SEAT) supplied at the factory does not work in another country.
CAUTION
● SEAT does not accept liability for any damage to the vehicle due to the
use of a lower quality fuel, an inadequate service or the non-availability of
genuine spare parts.
● SEAT does not accept liability if the vehicle does not comply in part or in
full with the legal requirements of other countries or continents. Radio reception and the aerial
For factory-fitted radio equipment, the aerial for radio reception is fitted to
the roof of the vehicle.
Note
If electrical equipment such as mobile telephones, is used near a roof aer-
ial, you may observe interference in the reception of AM stations. 
Notes on SEAT repairs
Information about authorised SEAT services and authorised SEAT repairs
can be requested by payment at the following addresses:
Clients in Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, Central America and South
America
Contact a Technical Service or specialised workshop, or request the corre-
sponding documentation at www.erwin.volkswagen.de.
WARNING
Repairs or modifications which are not performed correctly may result in
damage or errors in the vehicle operation, affecting the effectiveness of
the driver assist and airbag systems. This could result in serious acci-
dent.
● Have any repairs or modifications carried out at a specialised work-
shop.

284Description of specifications
● Passengers.
● Total equipment.
● Roof load, included in the carrier.
WARNING
Exceeding the maximum authorised weight and the load on the axles
could cause damage to the vehicle, accidents and serious injuries.
● The real load on the axles should never exceed the maximum permit-
ted.
● The load and its distribution in the vehicle have effects on the vehicle
handling and the braking ability. Always drive at a suitable speed.
CAUTION
Distribute the load as uniformly and as low down on the vehicle as possible.
When transporting heavy objects in the luggage compartment, these
should be placed as far forward as possible or over the rear axle to have as
little influence on handling as possible. 
Information on fuel consumption
The consumption and emission values indicated do not refer to one specific
vehicle. They are only to be used to compare the values of the different ve-
hicle versions. The fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions of a vehicle not on-
ly depend on the effective use of fuel. They also depend on your driving
style and other non-technical factors.
Calculation of fuel consumption
Fuel consumption and emission values are determined according to the cur-
rent version of the 715/2007/EC or 80/1268/EEC regulation and are valid
for the vehicle kerb weight. The specifications do not refer to an individualvehicle. To measure the fuel consumption, two measuring cycles are carried
out on a rolling road test bed. The test criteria are as follows:
Urban cycleMeasurement of the urban cycle starts with an engine cold
start. City driving is then simulated at between 0 and 50 km/
h (0 and 31 mph).
Road cycle
In the road cycle simulation, the car undergoes frequent ac-
celeration and braking in all gears, as in normal everyday
driving. The road speed ranges from 0 to 120 km/h (0 and
75 mph).
CombinedThe average combined consumption is calculated with a
weighting of around 37 % for the urban cycle and 63 % for
the road cycle.
CO
2 emis-
sions of the
combinationThe exhaust gases are collected during both driving cycles
to calculate carbon dioxide emissions (urban and road). The
gas composition is then analysed to evaluate the CO 2 con-
tent and other emissions.
Note
The kerb weight may vary according to the vehicle equipment. This could
raise consumption and the CO 2 emissions slightly.
Note
In practice, consumption values could be different to the values calculated
based on the 715/2007/EC or 80/1268/EEC regulations. 
