Fuses and bulbs
Replacing a blown fuse Fig. 145
Image of a blown fuse Preparation
● Switch off the ignition, lights and all elec-
trical equipment.
● Open the corresponding fuse box
››› page 190 .
Identif y
ing a blown fuse
A fuse is blown if its metal strip is ruptured
››› Fig. 145.
Point a lamp at the fuse. This will make it
easier to see if the fuse is blown.
To replace a fuse ● Remove the fuse.
● Replace the blown fuse by one with an
identical amperage rating (same colour and
mark
ings) and identical size ››› .●
Replace the cover again or close the fuse
box lid. CAUTION
If you replace a fuse with higher-rating fuse,
you could cause damage to another part of
the electrical system. Changing bulbs
Introduction Changing bulbs requires a certain amount of
manual skill. If you are unsure, SEAT recom-
mends that you consult a technical service or
request assistance from a specialist. In gen-
eral a specialist is needed if, in addition to
the bulbs, other vehicle components require
removal.
You should store spare light bulbs in the ve-
hicle for safety-relevant lights. Spare bulbs
may be obtained from the technical services.
In some countries, it is a legal requirement to
carry spare bulbs in the vehicle.
Driving with faults and blown bulbs on the
vehicle exterior lighting is against the law.
Additional bulb specifications
The specifications of some headlamp bulbs
and bulbs for the tail lamps fitted at the fac-
tory may be different to those of conventionalbulbs. Bulb information is displayed on the
bulb socket or on the bulb itself.
WARNING
If the road is not well-lit and the vehicle is
not clearly visible to other drivers, there is a
risk of accident. WARNING
Failure to replace bulbs correctly may cause
serious accidents.
● Before carrying out any work in the engine
compartment please read and observe the
warnings ››› page 143. In any vehicle, the en-
gine c omp
artment is a hazardous area and
could cause severe injury.
● The bulbs H4, HB4 and H7 are pressurised
and might explode on changing them.
● Only replace the bulbs concerned when
they have cooled.
● Never replace bulbs alone if you are not fa-
miliar with the operations necessary. If you
are not sure about procedures then visit a
specialised workshop to carry out the neces-
sary work.
● Never touch the bulb glass directly. Finger-
prints will be evaporated by the heat of the
operating bulb thus “fogging” up the reflec-
tor.
● The headlamp frameworks in the engine
compartment and the tail lamps contain
sharp elements. Always protect your hands
when changing bulbs. » 191

CAUTION
● After changing a bulb, if the rubber covers
are not replaced correctly on the headlamp
framework, the electrical installation may be damaged, especially if water is allowed to en-
ter.
● Remove the ignition key before working on
the electric system. Otherwise, a short circuit could occur. ●
Switch off the lights and the parking light
before changing a bulb.
● Take good care to avoid damaging any com-
ponents. Replacing the bulbs in the headlights

Important information Introduction The information in the vehicle documentation
always takes precedence over the informa-
tion in this Instruction Manual.
All technical specifications provided in this
documentation are valid for the standard
model in Spain. The vehicle data card inclu-
ded in the Maintenance Programme or the
vehicle registration documents shows which
engine is installed in the vehicle.
The figures may be different depending
whether additional equipment is fitted, for
different models, for special vehicles and for
other countries.

The vehicle data label ››› Fig. 155 is at the
front
of the spare wheel well. It contains the
following data:
Vehicle identification number (chassis

Vehicle type, engine power, gearbox type.
Engine and gearbox code, paint number,

Optional extras, PR numbers.
These data are also provided in the Mainte-
nance Programme.
Specific vehicle weight information The instructions in the official vehicle docu-
ments take precedence. All the technical data
provided in this documentation is applicable
to the basic model. The vehicle data label in
the Maintenance Programme or the vehicle
documentation shows which engine is instal-
led in your vehicle.1 2

whether additional equipment is fitted, for
different models and for special vehicles.
Kerb weight values shown in the following ta-
ble apply to a vehicle with driver (75 kg), liq-
uids including a fuel tank 90% full, in addi-
tion to tools and a spare wheel
››› . The
kerb weight indicated increases with optional
equipment and retrofitting of accessories,
while proportionally reducing carrying ca-
pacity.
The load is equivalent to the following
weights:
● Passengers.
● Total equipment.
● Roof load, included in the carrier. WARNING
Exceeding the maximum authorised weight
and the load on the axles could cause dam-
age to the vehicle, accidents and serious in-
juries.
● The real load on the axles should never ex-
ceed the maximum permitted.
● 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 trans-
porting heavy objects in the luggage com-
partment, these should be placed as far for-
ward 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 indi-
cated do not refer to one specific vehicle.
They are only to be used to compare the val-
ues of the different vehicle versions. The fuel
consumption and CO
2 emissions of a vehicle
not only 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 current version
of the 715/2007/EC or 80/1268/EEC regula-
tion and are valid for the vehicle kerb weight.
The specifications do not
refer to an individu-
al
vehicle. To measure the fuel consumption,
two measuring cycles are carried out on a
rolling road test bed. The test criteria are as
follows:
198
Technical featuresUrban
cycleMeasurement of the urban cycle starts with
an engine cold start. City driving is then si-
mulated at between 0 and 50 km/h (0 and
31 mph).
Road
cycle
In the road cycle simulation, the car under-
goes frequent acceleration and braking in all
gears, as in normal everyday driving. The
road speed ranges from 0 to 120 km/h (0
and 75 mph).
Com-
binedThe average combined consumption is calcu-
lated with a weighting of around 37 % for the
urban cycle and 63 % for the road cycle.
CO
2
emis-
sions of
the
combi-
nationThe exhaust gases are collected during both
driving cycles to calculate carbon dioxide
emissions (urban and road). The gas compo-
sition is analysed below to evaluate the CO 2
content and other emissions. Note
● The kerb weight may vary according to the
vehicle equipment. This could raise consump-
tion and the CO 2 emissions slightly.
● In practice, consumption values could be
different to the values calculated based on
the 715/2007/EC or 80/1268/EEC regula-
tions. Wheels
Tyre pressure, snow chains, wheel
bolts Tyre pressures
The sticker with the tyre pressure values can
be found on the inside of the fuel tank flap.
The tyre pressure values given there are for
cold tyres. The slightly raised pressures of
w
arm ty
res must not be reduced. ››› Snow chains
Snow chains may be fitted only to the
front
wheels .
C on
sult the section “wheels” of this manual.
Wheel bolts
After the wheels have been changed, the
tightening torque
of the wheel bolts should
be checked as soon as possible with a torque
wrench ››› . The tightening torque for steel
and alloy wheels is 140 Nm. WARNING
● Check the tyre pressure at least once per
month. Checking the tyre pressure is very im-
portant. If the tyre pressure is too high or too
low, there is an increased danger of accidents
- particularly at high speeds. ●
If the tightening torque of the wheel bolts
is too low, they could loosen while the vehi-
cle is in motion. Risk of accident! If the tight-
ening torque is too high, the wheel bolts and
threads can be damaged. Note
We recommend that you ask your Technical
Service for information about appropriate
wheel, tyre and snow chain size. 199
