Operation
Service interval display Service interval display The service interval indication appears on the
instrument panel display
››› Fig. 82 4 .
SEAT distinguishes between services with en-
gine oi l
change (e.g. Oil change service) and
services without
engine oil change (e.g. In-
spection).
In vehicles with Services established by time
or mileage, the service intervals are already
pr e-defined.
In
vehicles with LongLife Service , the inter-
vals are determined individually. Technical
progress has made it possible to considera-
bly reduce servicing requirements. The tech-
nology used by SEAT ensures that your vehi-
cle only has an Oil Servicing when it is neces-
sary. To establish when the oil servicing is
due (max. 2 years), the vehicle's conditions
of use and individual driving styles are con-
sidered. The service pre-warning first ap-
pears 20 days before the date established for
the corresponding service. The kilometres
(miles) remaining until the next service are
always rounded up to the nearest 100 km
(miles) and the time is given in complete
days. The current service message cannot be
viewed until 500 km after the last service. Pri-
or 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 remind-
er is displayed.
In vehicles without text messages , a s
panner
is displayed on the instrument panel with
a figure giv
en in km. The number of kilome-
tres 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 , Serv
ice in ---
km (miles) or --- days is displayed on the in- strument panel.
Service due
After the service date, an audible warning is
given when the ignition i
s switched on and
the spanner displayed on the screen flashes
for a few seconds . In
vehicles with text
messages, Service in --- km or --- days is dis-
played on the instrument panel.
Reading a service notification
With the ignition switched on, the engine off
and the vehicle at a standstill, the current
service notification
can be read:
Press and hold the button ››› Fig. 82 4 for
more than 5 seconds to consult the service
